Where is Jackie Chan's son Jaycee now? Meet actor's 'nepo baby' offspring whose career was derailed

Jaycee Chan, the only son of international action star Jackie Chan, seemed destined to follow in his father's footsteps at first. However, after a promising start in the entertainment industry, his career took a dramatic hit, and he has since kept a low profile. Jaycee, now 42, is the son of Jackie and Taiwanese actress Joan Lin and was raised in Los Angeles, per People. The nepo baby was educated at the prestigious College of William & Mary in Williamsburg, Virginia, where he studied Asian languages. However, he dropped out of school in 2003 and moved to Hong Kong to pursue a career in music and acting. Jaycee released his first album that year and later appeared in several Chinese-language films, including The Drummer in 2007, which was nominated for the Grand Jury Prize at Sundance. Despite his fame, the star said he still struggled in his father's spotlight. 'I'm lucky to have a dad who's really famous, but [people] don't really know me for who I am ... they just know me as Jackie Chan's son,' Jaycee told The Hollywood Reporter in 2009. 'The hardest part for me is to let people know what I'm really capable of doing on my own.' To make his acting stand out, Jaycee told The New York Times that he tried to avoid action films and focus on smaller movies, as well as his music career. While he never reached the global fame of his father, Jaycee maintained a steady presence in the Chinese entertainment world until 2014. That fateful year, the actor was arrested in Beijing for drug-related charges alongside Taiwanese actor Ko Kai and others. Jaycee and Ko both tested positive for marijuana, and police seized more than 100 grams of the drug from his Beijing apartment. He served six months in prison, and the scandal had a lasting impact on his career and public image. Following his release in 2015, Jaycee publicly apologized, saying: 'After this correction by the justice system, I have changed my outlook on life and my values. 'I made mistakes, I will remember this lesson, I won't commit mistakes again in the future. In 2014, the actor was arrested in Beijing for drug-related charges alongside Taiwanese actor Ko Kai and others. He spent six months in jail. He's seen with his dad in 2009 'I want to apologize to everyone for my mistakes. I'm genuinely sorry.' Jackie spoke publicly about the ordeal as well, expressing heartbreak over his son's arrest. 'When I first heard the news, I was absolutely enraged. As a public figure, I feel very ashamed; as his dad, I'm very sad and disappointed,' Jackie, now 71, shared on his website at the time, per People. 'You've done something wrong, and you have to be responsible for the consequences. I'm your dad, and I'll always be with you. We will face the road ahead of us together.' He added, 'I should also take some of this responsibility because, as his dad, I didn't teach him well.' Jackie later said his son's prison sentence helped his son mature and even improved their relationship. While working on The Karate Kid with Jaden Smith, Jackie revealed the film made him want to be a better father. 'I was too Chinese, traditional - you, son, go away, I don't want to help you, you have to help yourself,' he told The Associated Press. Jackie said he was inspired by Will Smith's support towards Jaden on set. '[He was] helping his son to be in a movie, every day on the set. I say, 'Why am I so stubborn? I have to help my son,' Jackie explained. Since his prison release, Jaycee has gone on to start his own Tequila brand, Los 7 Ángeles, in 2021. He also released a song in 2024 titled In Search For Darkness - his first release after a 10-year hiatus. This year, the nepo baby made a rare appearance at a wedding in May in South Korea donning a shaved head, glasses, and casual attire, per Dimsum Daily.

Why The Barras reminds me of America and days gone by

Fear not. I'm at Randall's Antiques and Vintage Centre, deep in the heart of The Barras - the final stop in my wander through one of Glasgow's most unique institutions. As the crowds at TRNSMT pulsate to the sound of Biffy Clyro and Fontaines DC across the street, my girlfriend and I make our way through a somewhat empty Barras. It's not surprising. The temperature is pushing 30 degrees, a grim reality which is widely commented on at each stall we stop in. Lunch is served. (Image: Emily Page) I'm here to search for bargains, but also to try some of the unique food offerings on display. It doesn't take long to find some grub, of course, as we stop at Fellali Cafe. It's not really a cafe, to be fair, just a table behind which a lovely Iraqi woman named Wanda sells falafel, hummus, and potato patties, known as aruk, alongside handcrafted jewellery. 'I've been here for around five months,' she tells me. 'I began selling my jewellery, and then I thought I should sell some food as well. It's all vegan and very healthy.' Indeed, for £7; we walk away with a plastic takeaway container filled to the brim with falafel, fresh hummus, aruk patties, a special chili sauce, and crispy strips of samoon, an Iraqi seeded bread. Perhaps it was the heat, but I couldn't have asked for a better lunch, sitting on two chairs opposite a stall selling rows of Stretch Armstrong figurines. In C Section, where some of the largest stalls are located, including 'Sustainable Fashion Row', we stop at the well-known Cowpeople stall, branded as the UK's largest purveyor of vintage cowboy apparel. The shop is bustling, no doubt a result of the terrific social media presence cultivated by shop owner Kaitlyn De Biasse, as well as a recent Irn-Bru advertising campaign. De Biasse, a New Jersey native (like me) has seen her business explode in recent years, from a one-day spot purchased for £15 to selling cowboy boots and bolo ties to customers across the UK and mainland Europe. And of course, being from America, I have to take a photo of a cardboard cutout of our first lady - country music legend Dolly Parton. Feeling at home at Cowpeople. (Image: Emily Page) In a strange way, The Barras reminds me of home. As a teenager, I'd go to the Italian Market in South Philadelphia nearly every Sunday afternoon. Those days were some of the best, as we searched for cannoli and cheesesteaks among the many market stalls. Similar to The Barras, you could find just about anything there, from hot food to clothes and bric a brac. And of course, the people running the stalls mirror one another, despite their geographic distance. In Glasgow and in Philly, blue collar folk and recent immigrants are hard at work, clambering up the ladder of opportunity. Before long, it's time for a snack. Over in D Section, we stop at Cream Comes True, a brightly coloured stall selling Hong Kong-style bubble waffles. We have a bit of a wait, so after being handed a ticket by the lovely waffle maker behind the counter (who urges us to visit the Red Bull truck for a free beverage) we make our way around the surrounding market stalls. We walk past the well-regarded Pizza Cult and a shop selling different types of macaroni cheese, as well as a host of wee places hawking all sorts of interesting items. Ten minutes later, we're back for a slice of the action. Now, I love a thick and crispy waffle, but I have to say I was somewhat confused by the 'traditional Hong Kong' offering, which consists of a waffle folded in half and spread with butter, peanut butter, and sugar. Well, it blew me away, and at £5, not a bad price either. Hong Kong inspired Cream Comes True sells a range of waffles. (Image: Emily Page) Later, we visit the Fresh Pressed Terps stand in B Section, along a bustling thoroughfare shimmering in the midsummer heat. Orange juice for a fiver, pineapple and watermelon juice for £6, fresh squeezed pomegranate for ten quid. All are served in glass bottles, which you can return for a 50 pence rebate. 'Busy today?' we ask. 'Surprisingly not,' says the man behind the counter, as his compatriot holds a bottle under a silver spigot dripping with orange juice. 'The heat seems to be keeping people at home,' he adds. Indeed, it is hot, hot enough that stallholders are passing around ice lollies held in a chest freezer. 'You have to keep cool,' one woman tells another. Amidst the shiny offerings and the music blaring from the Red Bull truck parked near the exit, I see another side of The Barras. Piles of mismatched clothing, dusty knick-knacks, rows of DVDs, old bicycles lined up haphazardly; these are perhaps a more honest representation of the market's history. Stalls boast a wide range of goods. (Image: Emily Page) It's been years since the last police raid on The Barras, which once occurred with regularity, and I'm not one to judge the provenance of various items. I turn to mention this to my girlfriend, and immediately am told to hold my tongue and avoid noting these interesting circumstances out loud. Alas. We continue our trek through rows of antiques, pausing to peer into mirrors or examine the cost of various paintings (most unfortunately out of my price range). Read more: I see a plasticine statue of Jesus, bearing a sign which reads: "Sorry. I (s)ain't for sale" and as a devout fan, I have to take a picture. It is soon 2pm, closing time, and as we walk towards the car, the sun beating down on my black t-shirt, I reflect on days gone by. It is easy to glamorise The Barras, as I did with the Italian Market of my youth. It is quirky, fun, and certainly odd. But to do so risks failing to understand the deep cultural connection the market has to the working people of the East End, and indeed the rest of the city. Narratives about gentrification have their place, but The Barras should be appreciated for what it is. We should embrace this cultural gem as a profoundly unique and vibrant celebration of Glasgow, the new, the old, and everything in between.

Kanye West and Bianca Censori tangle tongues in over-the-top PDA at South Korean party ahead of his concert

The pair are in the country ahead of Kanye's concert GET A ROOM! Kanye West and Bianca Censori tangle tongues in over-the-top PDA at South Korean party ahead of his concert Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) KANYE West has put on an over-the-top PDA display with wife Bianca Censori as the couple got intimate at a South Korea party. The couple, who were plagued by split rumours earlier this year, have seemingly proved their love is stronger than ever before with a wildly public display of affection. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 4 Kanye West and Bianca Censori got playful with one another's tongues in South Korea Credit: Instagram 4 They danced the night away ahead of his concert in the country Credit: Instagram In a new video, Kanye and Bianca can be seen inter-twining tongues during a hot and heavy makeout session at a late-night party in South Korea. The rapper has travelled to the country for a headline concert this weekend but it seems he is making the most of his free time with wife Bianca whilst in the country. In the eye-popping clip, the couple can be seen dancing close with one another and surrounded by their pals. Strutting his stuff, Kanye had his hands above his head as he danced seductively with wife Bianca placing her hands around his body. The pair appeared to take a dip at the knees as his body began to lower onto hers whilst she stuck her tongue out playfully. Holding her tongue over the rapper's mouth, he soon stuck his own out as they caressed each other with their tongues in a public open-mouth kiss. Bianca appeared to be wearing a skimpy see-through top whilst Kanye kept his eyed hidden by a pair of shades. The couple haven't been spotted out in public as much over the last few weeks with Bianca instead turning up the head with a slew of seductive posts in barely-there underwear and outfits on Instagram. The Aussie model has been sharing several sets of Polaroid photos taken by her husband of late. In all of the snaps, Bianca is stood in front of a white backdrop while showing off her famous curves. Kanye West 'paid' Bianca Censori $100k to wear candy bra and thong in NYC after she 'first told him no' This November will mark the couple's third wedding anniversary. Shortly after Kanye's divorce from Kim Kardashian in 2022, the rapper began dating Bianca. The pair then got hitched just days after his divorce from the SKIMS founder was finalized. Since their nuptials, Kanye and Bianca often step out in sizzling and NSFW displays - often sparking backlash from the public and fans online. Bianca is often seen wearing very little clothing, and has her breasts and private regions on display while out and about. Bianca Censori and Kanye West's relationship Bianca Censori was born on January 5, 1995, in Melbourne, Australia Before her current full-time job, the 30-year-old started a jewelry company called Nylons after leaving high school. After working as a student architect for three years, she completed a master's degree between 2019 and 2020 ahead of moving to Los Angeles. In a radio interview, a childhood friend of Bianca's claimed that Kanye slid into her DMs on Instagram. The rapper reportedly said, "Come and work for me." At which point she says the designer moved to LA to join his company Yeezy as the "head of architecture" - and has been since November 2020. WEDDING BELLS On Friday, October 6, 2023, The Daily Mail reported Kanye and Bianca wed on December 20, 2022. The couple tied the knot under a "confidential marriage license" in the state of California. The two wed in Palo Alto, California, according to the document. The wedding came just one month after Kanye and Kim Kardashian finalized their divorce. 4 The couple are often known for their shocking displays Credit: X/Ye
