After a year without any new music, popular Malaysian girl group Dolla finally returns with their latest single, MWA! .
MWA! , created by Chelsea Warner, Gaston, Roland Lim Shi Jie, and the three members of Dolla - Tabby, Sabronzo and Angel - features a fresh and experimental sound.
Angel said they were very excited to collaborate with the creative team once again, as it offered them a chance to explore new musical ideas that were more challenging and fun.
"After a year without releasing a single due to being busy with concerts and several other projects, this year we successfully released MWA! for our beloved fans. This song feels like a rebranding of our identity.
"The recording session also went very smoothly. We experimented a lot with different sounds and structures, and the involvement of every Dolla member this time made the creative process even more meaningful," she said at a press conference after the launch of their new single in Bukit Bintang here.
Meanwhile, Tabby said MWA! marks the beginning of many new works that Dolla will be presenting throughout the year.
"We consider this year the 'year of Dolla songs' because many more tracks will be released.
"We can't wait to bring them to the stage and hope they will attract more listeners because the songs are very fresh and different," she said. — Bernama

Malaysian actor Zhang Yaodong spotted manning steamed seafood stall in Singapore

In a Xiaohongshu post, the user said the stall belongs to Zhang Yaodong and he was working that day because his employee had resigned. Photos: Xiaohongshu Singapore-based Malaysian actor Zhang Yaodong was spotted manning a steamed seafood stall at coffee shop 9007 Kopitiam in the Tampines industrial area on June 4. Clad in a plain white tee, the 47-year-old was standing in front of the cash register and appeared to be taking orders from customers. The Xiaohongshu user who posted about the sighting on June 4 said the stall belongs to Zhang and he was working that day because his employee had resigned. Amid the hustle and bustle, the user noted that the former Mediacorp artiste was polite, and affirmed Zhang in her post by saying that there is nothing better than correcting one's behaviour after making a mistake. The bachelor's image took a hit in July 2024 when rumours surfaced about him fathering children out of wedlock with women of different nationalities. The allegations resulted in him filing a police report, with his manager adding that he will not be addressing the issue again. But in November 2024, Zhang took to Instagram to commemorate his holiday to South Korea with his two daughters, confirming his father status for the first time. In February, Mediacorp's talent management agency The Celebrity Agency stated it was no longer representing him and that he has not participated in the filming of any new shows. Zhang, whose parents used to be hawkers, reportedly used to run a catering business and opened a roast meat stall in a foodcourt. He also ventured into Taiwanese cuisine, selling beef noodles in his home town of Kuala Lumpur. In 2017, he opened an Asian fusion restaurant, Maru, in Tanjong Pagar, but it has since closed. – The Straits Times/Asia News Network

#SHOWBIZ: HK actor Joel Chan spotted at KL nightclub after filming in Malaysia

HONG KONG: Actor Joel Chan recently made the most of his time in Malaysia while there for work. Local Chinese media outlets reported that the 48-year-old was spotted at a buzzing Kuala Lumpur nightclub, where he turned heads in a stylish, short-sleeved leopard print shirt. A video clip shared on Xiaohongshu (Red Note) showed Chan happily dancing to "Red Sun," a classic song by renowned Hong Kong singer Hacken Lee. In an interview with Hong Kong media, the TVB star revealed he'd gone to the nightclub with his crew to celebrate wrapping up filming in Malaysia. "The entire team – including directors, crew members, and some Malaysian investors – went out for a meal," he explained. "They then suggested visiting a well-known nightclub, mentioning that it plays classic hits from the 1980s." Besides the nightclub, Chan was also seen enjoying a meal at a local eatery during his visit. Chan, who began his career as a singer in 1994 before moving into acting the following year, is a beloved figure among Hong Kong drama fans in Malaysia. In 2017, he won the Favourite TVB Supporting Actor award at the TVB Star Awards Malaysia for his role in the crime thriller series The Unholy Alliance. Chan has been married to Apple Ho since 2019, and they have one son.

Actress Fan Bingbing Enters Malaysia Book Of Records For Boosting Melaka's Digital Image

A year ago, Chinese actress Fan Bingbing (范冰冰) was announced as Melaka's tourism ambassador, sparking mixed reactions. However, it seems the controversial appointment paid off for the Malaysian state. Earlier this week, Melaka Chief Minister Ab Rauf Yusoh revealed that he had travelled to Hong Kong to meet with the Chinese actress to award the star a certificate from the Malaysia Book of Records (MBOR). Fan Bingbing was recognised for 'Largest Digital Hits for Malaysian Tourism on WeChat Platform Using Celebrity Ambassador' after Melaka recorded 1.5 billion digital impressions with the 'Malacca x Fan Bingbing' campaign. Ab Rauf Yusof said that Fan Bingbing's appointment as tourism ambassador also helped lead to a significant increase in tourists to Melaka, particularly from China. The Chief Minister shared that the state had 204,818 Chinese tourists by December 2023 but welcomed 664,687 Chinese tourists by December 2024. He also said that her ambassadorship had catapulted Melaka into the global tourism spotlight. Earlier this year, it was announced that Melaka will be the host for the World Tourism Day (WTD) 2025 and the World Tourism Conference (WTC) 2025 this 27th to 29th September 2025 (Saturday to Monday). While unconfirmed, Ab Rauf Yusof said that Fan Bingbing's appointment as the state's tourism ambassador had helped Melaka achieve this milestone. Fan Bingbing and her Malaysian manager, Jersey Chong, have expressed thanks towards the Melaka state government for the MBOR recognition. In an Instagram post, Jersey wrote, 'Gratitude to the Malacca state government for the unwavering trust, and to Bingbing for consistently promoting cultural exchange with sincerity and professionalism. We look forward to crafting more remarkable chapters together.'. While Fan Bingbing's appointment as Melaka's tourism ambassador received mixed reactions, we can't deny the impact that the actress has had. Here's to hoping that the historic state will continue to become a must-visit destination for international travellers.
