Jackie Chan admits to being a bully as a child
June 11th, 2010 - 5:32 pm ICT by ANINew Delhi, June 11 (ANI): Jackie Chan has admitted that he was a bully as a child and quit being one after learning martial arts.
The Chinese superstar was only a promotional tour of “The Karate Kid”, when he told reporters that he enjoyed tormenting his classmates - till the day his father found out and enrolled him in kung fu classes.
The art taught him humility and respect for others and he wanted the same message to come across through his new movie - and if his co-star Jaden Smith is to be believed - he has succeeded one hundred percent.
“I think that he is a good mentor for me. He and my dad have a lot of great qualities you know. They are nice, they treat people well. They make great movies. There are things that you need,” English.news.cn quoted him as saying. (ANI)
