Noh Salleh To Join Siti Nurhaliza For Icon's Upcoming 30th Anniversary Concert
Last month, Biduanita Negara, Dato' Sri Siti Nurhaliza, announced that she would be holding a special two-day 'Violet Skies' concert at the Arena of Stars, Resorts World Genting, in celebration of her 30th anniversary in the music industry. Fans have been eagerly anticipating the upcoming show in July, and as it is an anniversary concert, some have wondered whether the icon will be inviting a few of her friends to join her on stage.
It was only recently that the star confirmed there would be a guest artist, prompting fans to speculate on who it might be. The guessing game came to an end earlier today (Monday, 26th May), when the icon finally revealed the identity of the mystery guest.
Over the weekend, Dato' Sri Siti Nurhaliza announced on Instagram that there will be a special guest appearance at her upcoming 'Violet Skies' concert at the Arena of Stars. She also posted a promotional poster for the show, featuring the silhouette of a mystery artist. Although nothing has been confirmed, fans have speculated, based on the silhouette alone, that it could be a long-haired male singer.
Many took to the comments section of the Instagram post to share their guesses as to who the mystery guest artist might be. Among the most frequently mentioned names were:
Noh Salleh of Hujan
Amir Masdi
Masdo
Faizal Tahir
It seems that one of the most popular guesses turned out to be true. Siti Nurhaliza has officially announced that Noh Salleh will be joining her on stage for her 30th anniversary show. According to the Instagram caption, it's possible that more than one special guest artist will be performing at the upcoming concert, but that's all to be confirmed later on. If the latest post is the first of many, who would you want to see on stage with the legend herself?

Malaysia's iconic superhero Keluang Man finally soars to the silver screen
This film tells the story of Borhan, a psychiatric patient in Kluang, who lives a double life as the mysterious vigilante Keluang Man. Photo: Keluang Man/Instagram After decades of nostalgia and years of anticipation, Keluang Man, Malaysia's original animated superhero, has finally made his live-action debut in cinemas nationwide. Released on May 29, the big-screen adaptation breathes new life into a local legend, blending action, humour and heartfelt storytelling in true Malaysian style. Directed by Anwari Ashraf, the man behind Polis Evo and Project: High Council , Keluang Man is not just another superhero flick. It's a tribute to Malaysian pop culture, a reinvention of an iconic character from the 1990s, and the start of the Astro Shaw Cinematic Universe (ASCU). This film tells the story of Borhan, played by Nas Muammar Zar, better known as Nas-T, a psychiatric patient in Kluang who lives a double life as the mysterious vigilante Keluang Man. Haunted by a voice in his head which is voiced by radio icon Halim Othman, Borhan finds himself pulled between delusions, memories and justice, especially when confronted with his estranged brother Shamsir, played by Datuk Remy Ishak. The story unfolds with a quirky cast of characters including Shweta Sekhon as Dr Malini, Borhan's psychiatrist, and Anwaar Beg Moghal as Inspector Sahab, her relentless brother who is hot on Keluang Man's trail. Datuk Rosyam Nor rounds out the cast as Ahmad, Borhan's aged but wise mentor. Speaking at the movie's gala premiere, lead actor Nas-T admitted that stepping into Borhan's complex world was both a challenge and a triumph. 'It's all thanks to director Anwari Ashraf, who wrote and directed it, and I entrusted everything to him. 'He moulded my character, and I followed his direction faithfully,' he said. In a particularly emotional twist, beloved radio host Halim returns not in body, but in voice. Lending his 1990s-era persona to a voice inside Borhan's head, Halim shared how surreal the experience was. 'Anwari told me about a superhero film with a character inspired by me, tied to the golden days of Roda Impian . 'I was touched by the director's imagination in wanting to capture Malaysia's memories from around 1998 to 2000,' Halim said. For Halim in particular, Keluang Man is considered a generational bridge that would bring people together. 'This isn't just a superhero film, it's a creative journey connecting nostalgia with a new generation,' he said. Shot in Kuala Lumpur, Kluang, Klang and Ipoh, Keluang Man took over two years to produce, with a reported budget of RM13 million. It represents the first full-fledged live-action adaptation of a local animated icon, originally created by the late Kamn Ismail. Director Anwari described the film as a love letter to fans and a vision of more local heroes to come. 'I hope audiences will embrace this film and help reignite the spirit of the superhero Keluang Man, so that his legacy can be passed down from one generation to the next,' he said. – Sinar Daily

#SHOWBIZ: Malaysian actor Zhang Yaodong seen manning seafood stall in Singapore
SINGAPORE: Singapore-based Malaysian actor Zhang Yaodong was seen running a steamed seafood stall at 9007 Kopitiam, a coffee shop in the Tampines industrial area, on June 4. The Straits Times reported that the 47-year-old was observed at the cash register, taking customer orders. A user on Xiaohongshu said that the stall belongs to Zhang, and he was working that day because his employee had resigned. The user noted the former Mediacorp artiste's politeness, affirming Zhang in her post by saying there is "nothing better than correcting one's behaviour after making a mistake." The bachelor's public image suffered a blow in July 2024 when rumours circulated about him fathering children out of wedlock with women of various nationalities. However, in November 2024, Zhang used Instagram to mark a holiday to South Korea with his two daughters, confirming his fatherhood for the first time. In February of this year, Mediacorp's talent management agency, The Celebrity Agency, announced it was no longer representing him and that he had not participated in the filming of any new programmes. Zhang, whose parents were formerly hawkers, is reported to have previously managed a catering business and opened a roast meat stall in a food court. He also ventured into Taiwanese cuisine, selling beef noodles in his hometown of Kuala Lumpur.

#SHOWBIZ: Jefri Nichol shares how he and Ameera Khan 'met'
KUALA LUMPUR: Indonesian actor Jefri Nichol has recently revealed the origins of his relationship with his girlfriend, social media influencer Ameera Khan. In a video re-posted by a TikTok user, Jefri was seen recounting their story, seemingly during a podcast session.

Given the long-distance nature of their early interactions, their connection was maintained primarily through social media and telephone calls. "We only met in 2023," Jefri stated, adding that by January 2024, they were officially a couple.
