Grab your tickets before it's too late! — Air Supply is set to serenade Singapore for their 50th anniversary concert at Marina Bay Sands
SINGAPORE: The soft rock legends are making love out of nothing at all — again! Air Supply is set to serenade Singapore at Marina Bay Sands on January 4, 2026, marking five decades of heart-melting ballads and undying fan devotion. Singapore, get ready to dust off your cassette tapes and swoon once more. Air Supply — the dynamic duo behind some of the softest yet hardest-hitting love ballads of the '80s — is heading back to the Little Red Dot for a milestone celebration: their 50th anniversary concert. Yes, fifty! That's half a century of love songs, emotional karaoke sessions, and sweet, sweet falsettos. Ticket prices, presale, and where to grab them Good news! You won't need to sell your vinyl collection to attend. Tickets range from just S$108 to S$268, depending on how close you want to be when Graham Russell strums the chords that broke a million hearts.

'Even the nights are better' with Air Supply Once again, mark your calendars for January 4, 2026. That's when Russell Hitchcock and Graham Russell will grace the Sands Grand Ballroom at Marina Bay Sands, belting out timeless classics like All Out of Love, Lost in Love, and Making Love Out of Nothing At All. As CNA Lifestyle aptly teased in their report, 'Even the nights are better now that we're here together with Air Supply.' And truly, what better way to kick off the new year than with a concert that promises the kind of romantic nostalgia only these Aussie crooners can deliver? Their last visit to Singapore was in December 2024, but clearly, once a year just isn't enough when you're dealing with decades of diehard fans and eternal soft rock love. From 'Jesus Christ Superstar' to global stardom Russell and Hitchcock met for the first time in 1975 while staging a production of Jesus Christ Superstar . It was a strangely divine start for a band that would go on to sing like no other.

Many sad teen love stories were set to their music, from breakups to make-ups and everything in between. Why we still love them 50 years on In a time of pop music made by computers and viral TikTok songs, Air Supply is like a handwritten love letter: A little dramatic but very much valued. Their lyrics are refreshingly real; they sometimes border on the over-the-top, but they're always presented with an honesty that still hits home. Besides, an Air Supply song is a must-have on any Spotify mix called 'Sad & Moody.' If you're still 'lost in love,' you're not alone Whether you're a long-time fan or a curious Gen Z-er who's wondering what your parents cried to in the '80s, this concert promises to be a masterclass in the art of the power ballad. So bring a date, bring your mum and dad, or just bring yourself. Because when it comes to an Air Supply concert, the only requirement is a heart that still remembers how to feel things deeply — even if it's just for two hours on a Sunday night.

Labubu-themed kids' holiday camps draws jeers (and legal concerns!)
Reddit screengrab/ u/Stefan0_ SINGAPORE: After a local Reddit user shared a standee for a holiday tuition camp that had the ultra-popular Labubu dolls as a theme, users on the platform had a lot to say. The four-day camps at Novena and Robertson Quay, which are for September and October, are for kids aged 7 to 14. Parents can choose to send their offspring to either morning or afternoon sessions, which feature such activities as 'Create-a-Bubu', 'Animate-a-Bubu,' and 'Game-a-Bubu.' In their Aug 15 post on r/Singapore, u/Stefan0_ wrote that 'Late Stage Capitalism Has Hit Our Tuition Centres,' and also quipped, 'Can't wait for the Labubu themed PSLE TYS Books!' Reddit screengrab/ u/Stefan0_ ICYMI, a Labubu is a female elf from Hong Kong illustrator Kasing Lung, part of his popular story series, The Monsters. In October 2023, Labubu plush charms were launched and became a hit, especially after Lisa from the K-pop supergroup Blackpink was seen with them on her bags. They became one of the must-have items for 2024, and are so popular that they reportedly sell out as soon as they're released for sale at Pop Mart. The craze for Labubu dolls still runs hot in Singapore and other parts of Asia. It has even spread to the United States, where queues have recently begun to form in the middle of the night at Pop-Mart stores. The photo of the standee for the holiday camps left many Reddit users shaking their heads. 'LMAO did they pay the licensing fees or this is a lawsuit waiting to happen,' wrote one, while another noted that the parent company that produces Labubus have already slapped a lawsuit against a food and beverage company for unauthorised usage of the figures or images of the figures. 'They are as litigious as Nintendo,' the commenter added. Another Reddit user quipped that the holiday camp people 'can just change the name of the programme to lafufu lol.' 'What's wrong, babe, you need to get ready for your 24 Carat Gold Labubu Dubai Chocolate Matcha Latte-themed Tuition Camp,' another mocked. Nevertheless, others were impressed by the skills kids will potentially pick up at the camps. 'Even I don't know how to animate with Python, and them primary 1 kids do. Sign me up, man,' one wrote. 'Tbf, I think this is used in a good way. At least get kids interested in learning some crafts. The skills taught are quite interesting, too,' commented another. /TISG Read also: Woman who bought fake Labubu doll for S$220 calls police after seller refused to refund () => { const trigger = if ('IntersectionObserver' in window && trigger) { const observer = new IntersectionObserver((entries, observer) => { => { if ( { lazyLoader(); // You should define lazyLoader() elsewhere or inline here // Run once } }); }, { rootMargin: '800px', threshold: 0.1 }); } else { // Fallback setTimeout(lazyLoader, 3000); } });
