Jacky Cheung's encore concerts at Singapore Indoor Stadium slated for Nov 21 to 23
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 $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."

Trump to attend 'Les Miserables' at revamped Kennedy Center, where sales have fallen
FILE PHOTO: U.S. President Donald Trump gestures while he poses for a picture at the presidential box at the Kennedy Center, in Washington, D.C., U.S., March 17, 2025. REUTERS/Carlos Barria WASHINGTON - Months after orchestrating a conservative takeover of the Kennedy Center's leadership, President Donald Trump will attend "Les Miserables" on Wednesday, his first show at the performing arts facility that has become a symbol of U.S. cultural and political divides. Trump did not attend events at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts during his first term, but has taken a keen interest in it during his second. Deriding it on social media for putting on "Drag Shows specifically targeting our youth," he pushed out its former chairman, fired its longtime president and pledged to overhaul an institution he described as being in tremendous disrepair. The fallout has been swift. The musical "Hamilton" canceled plans to appear there, staff left and sales of subscriptions and individual tickets for Kennedy Center shows have dropped, according to two people briefed on the data. Overall subscription revenue was down 36% to $2.8 million as of early June for next season, which begins in the autumn, according to one source. Theater subscriptions, normally a major revenue driver for the center, were down 82%. A Kennedy Center spokeswoman declined to comment about the facility's sales. The center depends on revenue from tickets and subscriptions as well as donations to operate. "President Trump cares deeply about American arts and culture, which is why he is revitalizing historic institutions like the Kennedy Center to their former greatness," White House spokeswoman Anna Kelly said in a statement. Trump's appearance at "Les Miserables", a show about citizens rising up against their government, comes just days after he sent U.S. Marines and the National Guard to quell protests against his administration's immigration raids in Los Angeles. Trump will sit in the presidential box overlooking center stage, but he is not guaranteed a friendly reception in the 2,300-seat theater. When Vice President JD Vance attended a Kennedy Center show with his wife earlier this year, the crowd booed. Supportive donors will be present, but tickets for the musical were available for purchase by the public as well, along with regular subscribers. The night is sold out. Trump's appearance is meant to juice fundraising. Donors who pay $100,000 to $2 million get to attend a reception before the show, receive a photo with the president and be seated in good locations in the theater. Vance is expected to attend as well. The Kennedy Center is turning the event into one on par with its signature shows, including the Kennedy Center Honors, featuring a red carpet for high-profile guests with reporters and photographers in place. Under the leadership of Ric Grenell, a close Trump ally and former ambassador to Germany, the Kennedy Center has sought to add more conservative-leaning programming, including a show that Grenell has described as a celebration of the birth of Christ. Meanwhile, while Trump zeroed in on drag shows when he said the Kennedy Center had lost its way, multiple upcoming musicals include characters dressed in drag, such as "Mrs. Doubtfire" and "Chicago." Other musicals have pulled out, according to a former Kennedy Center official. REUTERS Join ST's Telegram channel and get the latest breaking news delivered to you.

Save money, bigger home: Actor Shaun Chen on why he moved to JB with his family

PHOTO: SHAUNCHENHONGYU/INSTAGRAM Save money, bigger home: Actor Shaun Chen on why he moved to JB with his family SINGAPORE – Malaysian actor Shaun Chen, who was previously living in Singapore for over a decade, did not beat around the bush on why he and his family permanently moved to Johor Bahru (JB) in August 2024. He is residing in the Eco Botanic township with his Malaysian wife Celine Chen, who is in her mid-30s, and their two daughters. Aged nine and seven, the children are enrolled in an international school. In the June 6 episode of Call Us Daddy, Singapore-based Chinese-American actor-host Allan Wu's podcast, the 46-year-old star opened up about the rationale behind the relocation. Chen, who is a Singapore permanent resident, said: 'I think the main reason is because we are both Malaysians. Secondly, we can save on costs – about 30 to 50 per cent. Thirdly, in JB, we can afford to live in a bigger and more comfortable home.' He added: 'My work has not changed. I am still a Mediacorp artiste. I'm still filming. And I can just travel (to Singapore) whenever I have work. Like today, I drove in to Singapore for work. Whenever it's needed, I make the commute to and fro.' He is also grateful that the 'the traffic situation now is much better than before'. 'When we film until the wee hours and are so tired, the thought of seeing our children and our family makes it not tiring any more. I try to think of it that way. The travelling time of 45 minutes to an hour is okay with me, not too bad.' He added: 'The good thing about JB is that it forces Singaporeans to be more alert. When you go to Malaysia and learn how to be more aware of your surroundings, no matter where you travel to, you will naturally be more alert. This also helps your children to be more alert as well.' Chen also explained that moving across the Causeway was a 'natural and logical' choice, given how the couple have extended family in Malaysia and none in Singapore After making his acting debut in 2003 in television series like True Heroes (2003) and Holland V (2003), his breakthrough came in 2015, when he snagged Best Actor for his role in The Journey: Tumultuous Times (2014) at the annual Star Awards. Chen recently starred in the Mediacorp blockbuster drama Emerald Hill – The Little Nyonya Story (2025) as Zhang Jinhai, the oldest son of the Zhang household and husband to Li Shuyu (played by Jojo Goh).

Put their logo and priced it 10 times higher: Netizens upset exact copy of Enhypen's merch available cheaply on Taobao, Entertainment News
K-pop boy group Enhypen's new merchandise line is going viral but not for the right reasons. Among the items sold in their Walk the Line in Japan - Summer Edition merchandise is a water gun, and fans quickly discovered that the design looks a little too familiar. In a post that has garnered close to three million views and over 19,000 reposts on X, a user compared a photo of the water gun to a listing on the Chinese e-commerce platform Taobao. The water gun on the latter is identical in design down to the colours and costs 16.8 yuan (S$3), while Enhypen's is going for 30,450 won (S$29). "It's really not good to take something that sells for 3,000 won on Taobao and sell it for 30,000 won with only a logo on it," said the user who shared the post on X. Netizens took to the quotes section to express their distaste for the situation. 아니…….좀 성의있게 다른 디자인으로 바꿔서 팔든가 타오바오에서 3천원에 파는거 그대로 가져와서 로고만 박고 3만원에 파는거 진짜별로다 — LUCKY 곰방와 (@g_mvely) June 9, 2025 "I want to boycott all the goods and albums of the agencies and make them come to their senses," said one angry netizen. Another remarked: "If it were me, I would buy it from Taobao, draw the Enhypen logo on it, and use it as if it were official goods." A few others also felt the one on Taobao looks "cuter". A quick look at the Weverse website shows that the item is no longer listed. Enhypen debuted in 2020 with seven members: Heeseung, Jake, Sunghoon, Sunoo, Jungwon, Jay and Niki.
