There are stars in the film business that leave an unforgettable impression on the public, and then there are legends that the world will never be able to forget for the rest of time thanks to their achievements. Hollywood star Jackie Chan is one of the finest examples of what a film star looks like when he becomes a legend in the eyes of the public.
But as they say, no one born in this world is perfect, and there are things that a person does that they might come to regret in the future, and the action star is no exception to this phenomenon of life. In the past, when everyone considered him to be one of the nicest stars in the world, Chan dropped a bomb on everyone by unraveling the dark past that he had hidden from the world.

Despite being the iconic martial artist in some of Hollywood’s biggest and most iconic films, Jackie Chan has a record of being part of a total of 150 movies in his career, a feat that not many can boast of. And apart from these accolades, everyone who has met him till now, or has worked with him in the past has nothing but nice things to say about his nature and personality.

In 2015, The Karate Kid star published a memoir that outlined his life and how it changed when he started to emerge as one of the biggest names in the business. Here, going full candid, the star talked about his extra-marital affair with model and actress Elaine Ng Yi-Lei in 1999, along with the fact that during his younger days, he was very s*xually active and insensitive, even calling a woman ‘Number Nine’ after he engaged in intercourse with her in a club’s toilet cubicle. Apart from that, he also talked about his alcoholism, where he said:
“I drunk drove all the time. In the morning, I’d crash my Porsche, then in the evening, I’d total a Mercedes-Benz. All day long, I went around in a haze.”
He even opened up about how he once flung his then two-year-old son Jaycee across the room, who thankfully ended up falling on the couch and didn’t get hurt, but definitely thought Chan a lesson that he would remember in the future as a scar from his past.
