SINGAPORE: If you failed to nab a ticket to one of Jacky Cheung's 11 sold-out gigs in Singapore in 2023, here is your second chance.
The Hong Kong Heavenly King will stage three encore concerts at the Singapore Indoor Stadium on Nov 21, 22 and 23, as part of the same 60+ Concert Tour.
Ticket prices – from S$168 to $388 – are identical to that of his 2023 shows here.
Priority sales for KrisFlyer members begin on July 2 from 10am to 11.59pm, and for OCBC cardmembers on July 3 from 10am to 11.59pm. General sales begin on July 4 at 10am.
The tour has travelled across Asia, and will stage encore shows in cities such as Macau, Kuala Lumpur and Suzhou.
Cheung's show business career began in 1984 when he joined PolyGram Records, which later became a subsidiary of Universal Music Group.
On Feb 23, the 63-year-old singer-actor celebrated a career milestone when he performed his 1,000th concert – and 218th show of the 60+ Concert Tour – in the Chinese city of Haikou.
He became the first Chinese artiste to surpass the 1,000-concert milestone, joining the same league as American singer Bruce Springsteen and American rock band Bon Jovi, who are known to have also achieved the feat.
To celebrate the occasion, Universal Music Greater China's management team attended the concert and presented Cheung with a special gift, honouring his remarkable influence and legacy over the past four decades.
Cheung reportedly said that evening: 'What do 1,000 concerts mean to me? It is a reflection of the past 40 years, where I have spent nearly 3,000 hours standing on this stage.
'I have poured all my sincerity and love into every performance. To every fan who has supported me, whether you are here with me tonight or not, my journey has been shaped by your unwavering love and encouragement... Thank you from the bottom of my heart.'
In a press statement, the star added: 'I give my best at every show and am deeply humbled by the immense support from my fans.'

Boy in Shanghai causes RM236,000 in property damage in tantrum over Labubu doll

Images on social media show glass shards in a Chinese influencer's home after a boy threw a remote control at the mirror-glass ceiling. -- PHOTOS: BROTHER TAIL/XIAOHONGSHU BEIJING (The Straits Times): A boy threw a tantrum over a jewel-adorned Labubu doll, causing more than 400,000 yuan (RM236,000) in property damage at the Shanghai home of the toy's owner, a Chinese influencer. In a post on the Chinese social media platform Xiaohongshu (Little Red Book), the influencer – Brother Tail – said the boy saw a Labubu doll adorned with expensive jewellery at his home, and demanded to have it. When told no, the boy had a meltdown. At one point, he grabbed a remote control and threw it towards the mirror-glass ceiling. It caused a portion of the ceiling to shatter, and an Italian crystal chandelier worth about 300,000 yuan to fall. Brother Tail said the boy came to his home with a visiting kin. The incident happened on Aug 1, and Brother Tail said in his post he had since repaired the ceiling and chandelier, which cost roughly 400,000 yuan. He said the parents of the boy – who appeared to show no remorse – offered to 'sell everything they had', but could only cover just 20,000 yuan of the total cost, adding that the family was 'too poor', and that he did not think suing them would help. The Chinese influencer said the boy's parents requested that he not post about the incident, saying it might 'affect the boy's mood'. 'It's unbelievable how elders like to use trivial family ties as emotional blackmail. They really have no sense of boundaries,' he complained in his post. A retail monster Labubu is a quirky monster character created by Hong Kong-born artist Kasing Lung in 2015, and popularised through a collaboration with toy store Pop Mart. Pop Mart fuelled the Labubu trend via deft online marketing and by creating artificial scarcity through limited releases, 'secret' editions and ultra-rare colourways. Labubu's popularity reached stratospheric heights after celebrities like BlackPink's Lisa, Dua Lipa and Rihanna were seen on social media sporting the dolls as fashion accessories. Originally priced between US$20 (S$26) and US$40, the dolls are now reselling for thousands of dollars. Some rare editions have been sold for over US$150,000 at auctions. The hype, scarcity and outrageous demand have led to fights, skirmishes and sheer retail chaos. Pop Mart suspended in-store Labubu sales across all 16 locations in Britain in May after fights broke out among customers. A Pop Mart store in Hangzhou, China, shut down just two hours in June after opening when scalpers rushed in. That same month, Pop Mart's flagship store in Seoul, South Korea, halted offline sales after fights broke out among customers and police had to be called in. In August, masked thieves broke into a California toy shop and snatched US$30,000 worth of Labubu dolls after they spotted a restock post on social media. - The Straits Times/ANN

Kenny Bee's daughter celebrates 21st birthday, wows netizens with stunning looks

Hong Kong singer Kenny Bee celebrated his daughter Blythe's 21st birthday with a small dinner at her favourite restaurant. Photos: Kenny Bee/Weibo Hong Kong artiste Kenny Bee recently celebrated his daughter Blythe's 21st birthday with an intimate dinner at her favourite restaurant. On Aug 5, the 72-year-old shared on Weibo several photos from the evening – including two of his daughter beaming with joy in front of her birthday cake, and another capturing a tender moment of him happily embracing her. 'I took her to her favourite restaurant for dinner with her best friend. One of her birthday gifts was her very first watch from her parents,' he wrote in the caption. Bee, a former member of the 1970s Hong Kong pop band The Wynners, also shared that his daughter's showbiz career is off to a promising start. Blythe, who studied film in Britain, made her entertainment debut in 2024 on the Chinese singing reality show Ben Fu! Wan Ren Xian Chang . 'She's also embarking on a new academic journey. May she smoothly step into a joyful and abundant life ahead,' he added. Many netizens have left comments wishing Blythe a happy birthday, while others praised her beauty and how gracefully she has grown over the years. 'Blythe is so beautiful. Happy birthday,' one netizen commented. 'It's wonderful to see her grow up surrounded by happiness and a loving family,' another said. 'The father is so cool, and the daughter is so beautiful,' wrote a third. It's worth noting that Blythe has long shown a flair for the arts, having joined her father on stage since she was a child and even performing in national Chinese New Year television galas. Last year, Bee shared in a video recording that his daughter hoped to carve out her own identity and face the audience on her own terms moving forward. For the record, Bee has an older son Nicholas, 35, and a daughter Chloe, 30, from his previous marriage to actress Teresa Cheung, which ended in divorce in 1999. He married his longtime girlfriend Fan Jiang in 2014 and welcomed two daughters with her – Blythe and Eloise, 15.
