While promoting his new movie, The Expendables 2, the Belgian movie star told the Guardian he had an affair with the pop princess on the set of Street Fighter in 1993.
Van Damme started off coy, not really revealing anything in response to an interviewer’s question.
“I tell you what, you should ask her. She’ll have a better memory. I’m 51 years old, do you know how much I was punched in the face on The Expendables? No, no. No. And let’s just say it happened, so what? Who wants to know? … Sometimes you let go of stuff … I don’t know, maybe. Yes. OK. Yes, yes, yes. It happened. I was in Thailand, we had an affair.”
He then carried on to give more detail.
“Sweet kiss, beautiful lovemaking. It would be abnormal not to have had an affair, she’s so beautiful and she was there in front of me every day with a beautiful smile, simpatico, so charming, she wasn’t acting like a big star. I knew Thailand very well, so I showed her my Thailand. She’s a great lady.”
I showed her MY Thailand?! Nice euphemism there, J-C.
