Despite his days in court, the Harrisons did not change Chum Lee's status on the show. He is still a show regular. The latest news is that he is going to get solo roles in "Pawn Stars."
The Las Vegas Review-Journal said that Chum Lee will now get solo performances. Is there a possibility of a spinoff? Well, after 440 episodes, the cheeky actor is ripe for it.
Austin Lee Russell shared, "Rick has finally taken the leash off and lets me out on my own!" More focus will be on his character as Richard Harrison will have only cameo roles.
The actor has his own fan base. His goofy character in "Pawn Stars" is what makes it amusing. Fans say that the show is not complete without him as reported by Movie News Guide. The fact that he looks slim and fit makes him riper for better roles.
Chum Lee is currently on probation for his felony cases involving drugs and guns possession. He was arrested after police authorities discovered contrabands in his home. He was detained and eventually had his days in court. His lawyers were able to work out a plea deal that resulted in a three-year probation.
After his legal battle, he has resumed his work at the Gold and Silver Pawnshop. He will be filming again soon.
The reality star admitted that he has transgressed but now he is back as a renewed man. He said, "I went through a lot, but I'm back on the right path." Chum Lee added, "I'm working hard every day, staying close to my family." He also said that Las Vegas is a fast town and one is easily caught up and may become out of focus on the most important aspects - family and health.
Corey Harrison's childhood friend is now into charity works. He does fund-raising for institutions helping those who are sick. Most of his fans joined him and support all his humanitarian endeavors. Russell is now focused on fitness and healthy diet. He vowed to make them his lifestyle.
