Despite palpable tension in Burma following the bloody crackdown on monks and protesters, life goes on. Peer activity, especially among the youth relates to passing audio files of two popular actresses gossiping over the telephone about the sex lives of other film personalities in Rangoon.

Nan Dar Hlaing and Myo Myo Khaing were taped talking on the telephone about the affair a movie director was having with an actress and about sex video clips of two women models that are in circulation. However, there are lots of people who feel that the video clips are fake.

The audio file of the two actresses gossiping has been on the internet since last month.

Myo Myo Khaing was forced to apologize to the director, actors and actress for her gossiping and had to say that what she had said was false but Nan Dar Hlaing has been quite about the whole thing.

Director Kyaw Zaw Linn, one of those in the gossip list has said that he will not work for the rest of his career with any actors or actresses who have been gossiping.
