He should have seen that coming
Boy Pakorn and inset, Mor Sun.
Actor Boy Pakorn has a comeback for a fortune-teller and self-styled “love guru” who likes to predict the penis sizes of celebrities, including himself.
After Mor Sun predicted that Boy’s member came in at the six-inches mark, Boy retorted that he wouldn’t be able to say for sure, as he’d never measured himself.
“The last time I heard of this guy was when he worked as a make-up artist,” he added. “Since when did he start telling fortunes?”
Mor Sun, based in Lat Phrao, tells the fortunes of clients with cards that borrow raunchy images from the Karma Sutra.
He has published clips on his Facebook page of young men and women of the second gender who have come to him for advice.
He admits encouraging clients to take off as much clothing as possible to improve the “accuracy” of his readings, but denies he is doing it merely to satisfy his own cravings.
Netizens have criticised Mor Sun, also known as Ajarn Sun Gotdance, since he started publishing revelations of what he says are actors' private parts.
None of the actors he has named in his saucy revelations admits to have consulted Mor Sun, which has led to claims he is a mere publicity-seeker.
Earlier, the fortune-teller put actor Toey Pongsakorn’s size at eight inches, and threatened to show actor Thanawat “Pope” Wattanaputi’s private parts on Facebook when the actor flatly denied consulting him.
“I don’t know the man, and don’t believe in getting my fortune told anyway,” he said.
Outspoken TV presenter Leena Jung asked what qualifications Mor Sun has to offer readings.
“Are you skilled in this area, or are you just interested in having your way with young men?” she asked.
“You only have to look at his eyes to know how lustful he is,” she told her audience.
The fortune-teller likes to give his readings in exotic Indian attire including an over-sized turban. Customers can come to his office, but he also makes home visits.
In one clip, he gives a consultation in the back of a car to a young man who has stripped down to his boxers.
In another, a young man wearing briefs asks why he is slow to ejaculate when having sex.
“You have been doing yoga, or pulling in your stomach too much, which is affecting your performance,” Mor Sun pronounces, as he reads a card which the young man has picked from his pack.
In another clip, Mor Sun tells a young tattoo-clad man that he needs to have sex in strange places such as the toilet or on his balcony to be truly satisfied.
In a still shot published on Facebook, another young man is lying flat on his back, stark naked, with Mor Sun hovering over him.
Mor Sun, interviewed by TV presenter Ajarn Yingsak Jonglertjessadawong, said not everyone who consults him takes off his clothes. Others, on the other hand, go all the way.
Asked if he is not encouraging clients to turn exhibitionist, Mor Sun said the cards determine the advice he gives.
“People are free to have sex in strange places or positions in the privacy of their own homes. However, I would not encourage anyone to break the law,” he said, when asked what he’d do if the “cards” which a customer picked told him to strip off in public.
Mor Sun said he also consults couples on their relationships, though few of those clips come to light. “It’s up to the individual how much he believes.”
Doing time, but for how much longer?
Actor Poramet “Pee” Singpor is getting his first experience of prison life as he awaits word on an appeal and bail application following his conviction last week for murder.
The Bangkok South Criminal Court on Thursday sentenced the former Channel 3 actor to eight years and three months for killing Noppadon “A” Athibai, 44, his friend and shareholder in the Muse pub in Thong Lor, in January 2013.

Pee’s lawyer submitted a bail application backed by assets worth 1.4 million baht, but the court referred the matter to the Court of Appeal.
Lawyer Ekkarat Tapananon said Pee would have to wait for the court’s decision, due next week, from Bangkok Special Prison, where he spent his first night on Thursday.
The court convicted him of murder with intent, carrying a weapon without a permit and taking it into a public place. It halved his sentence after he partially confessed.
While admitting the second two charges, Pee denied murdering with intent, arguing he was seized by the anger of the moment when he shot his friend in the head.
A was killed in the car park of the Foodland supermarket in the 8 Building on Thong Lor Soi 8, off Sukhumvit Soi 55, on Jan 17 last year.
Pee, his girlfriend and A were eating in Foodland moments before. Pee and his girlfriend started to argue, and A tried to break it up.
The trio left the table and went out to the car park, where the argument resumed. A again tried to break it up, and Pee told him not to interfere.
CCTV footage showed him taking out a gun, aiming at his friend’s head and shooting him, as shoppers fled for safety.
Mr Tapananon said his client intended appealing against the premeditated murder charge.
Netizens say they are unhappy with the ruling. “If he has to serve eight years, he will be out in three. How can they argue it was just a case of anger when he fired at his friend’s head?” one asked. “They should put themselves in place of his friend’s family and consider how they feel.”
No pity for sacked taxi driver
Actress Saitharn “Tai” Niyomkarn is defending her decision to publish a clip of her unhappy encounter with a Bangkok taxi driver, after it resulted in him losing his job.
The Manager/ASTV newspaper reported yesterday the driver has lost his job with his taxi collective following publicity of his exchange with the actress.
Tai, however, said she has no regrets about publishing the clip, as she wanted to make an example of the driver.

She said she was taking a yellow taxi in Lat Phrao late at night on March 15 when he took a wrong turn. When she corrected him, the taxi driver turned on her, shouting at her for the rest of their journey.
Tai, who opened up about the encounter last week, said she started filming him on her smartphone while she was still inside the taxi.
“I decided I needed to film his vehicle registration details. At first I made out I was looking for my wallet in my bag, using the illuminated screen of my smartphone to help me find it.
“In the end I decided to be done with it. I decided he might as well know I was filming him, so put the flash and pointed the camera at him for the rest of the journey,” she said.
“I’m not here as a mere receptacle for whatever anger he chooses to express. Not only that, but I’m in the service industry, just as he is. I want to know why he felt he had to speak to me so rudely.
“He saw me filming him and attempted to shield his face. I asked him if it was his own vehicle, or belonged to a collective. That’s all I asked, I didn’t fly off the handle. But he refused to answer.
“As I left the vehicle he took off his glasses and turned around. He recognised me as an actress and started pointing his finger in my face.
“I asked him if he had been drinking and asked if he would like to accompany me for a test. He denied he had taken anything.
“I don’t intend filing a police complaint, as the driver didn’t do me any harm. But I did say to him that life is more difficult days because of people like him,” she said.
