A BARISTA in Johor was applauded for her composure in dealing with a customer who flashed her, even politely collecting money from him, reported China Press.
The operator of a food truck selling coffee in Bukit Indah was startled when the man came to make an order – with his private parts exposed.
“When I started business in the morning, a ‘special customer’ paid a visit. He looked dishevelled and was proudly showing off his ‘pee-pee’,” she wrote on the platform Xiaohongshu and even shared video footage of the incident which shows her handing him the coffee, collecting his money and thanking him for his patronage.
Immediately after the incident, the woman said she packed up, fearing that he would strike again. She warned other women in the vicinity to beware of perverts prowling the area.
Many Internet users praised the woman for her professionalism and calmness in facing a flasher. Others, however, said she should have splashed him with hot coffee to teach him a lesson.
> When asked to work together on a new song, the first thing Taiwanese singer Matilda Tao told Malaysian rapper Namewee was that she would not sport a bikini, China Press also reported.
“Can I not wear a bikini?” Tao reportedly told Namewee, who is known to feature scantily clad adult video actresses such as Yui Hatano, Sora Aoi and Kirara Asuka in his music videos, right after receiving the lyrics to his new song 10 Men.
The song was a diss track to Tao’s own Stand Up, Sisters, which is about girl power. 10 Men is about the common dilemmas faced by men and also takes a dig at the opposite sex.
“Women can be unreasonable. There is some truth to the lyrics. When I was younger, I was an overbearing female CEO and many suffered my wrath. This (song) can be said to be a vindication of their experiences,” Tao quipped.
She praised Namewee for the effort he had put into the music as well as the music video in which she starred in.
“He has a unique style in casting. The juxtaposition of one character against the others in the music video makes it extremely interesting. The rearranged song is so catchy that I even forgot how my original tune sounded!” she said.
