Nur Afifah Nasir, actress in the middle of karaoke controversy, comes forward

ACTRESS Nur Afifah Nasir today admitted that she and married Singaporean singer/actor Aliff Aziz held hands, as captured by the karaoke outlet's CCTV.

"I admit it was my fault for letting him touch my hand and apologise to Bella (Aliff's wife) for that," she said at a press conference held at Solaris Dutamas, Kuala Lumpur today.

Afifah, 24, who is in the middle of the karaoke controversy between Aliff and his wife Dayang Nabellah Awang Astillah, said that she had called for this press conference to tell her side of the story.

"This is also to clear the air and I have no intention of blaming anyone for the incident. I just want to move on," said the younger sister of actress Anzalna.

Prior to making her statement, the press was privy to a recording of a telephone conversation between Anzalna and a production crew member of "Izinkan Aku Mencintaimu" on the plan to have the karaoke session.

"The karaoke session was supposed to be for all of us (the cast and crew of the drama series), as we were nearing the ending of the filming," she said.

Afifah said it was Aliff who suggested that they went to the karaoke on July 27, as it was only a mere 10 minutes from the filming location.

"However, Bella showed up before the rest of the cast and crew arrived," she added.

On July 27, Aliff was alleged to have assaulted his wife at a karaoke centre after he was caught in a room with Afifah.

When the scandal broke out and went viral on social media, many Netizens have called for Afifah to apologise to Bella.

She has been under public scrutiny, so much so that the word "Afifah Nasir" even made it into the Urban Dictionary, a crowdsourced online dictionary of slang words and phrases.
