The rise of Chinese amateur female idol groups and how they're taking cues from Japan
At a club in Shanghai, dozens of young people are jumping and waving glow sticks as they dance to the music, leaning in as if to touch the performers on stage. The performers are Chinese amateur girl groups singing in Japanese, and this is Japan's globalised idol culture. About 20 Chinese idol groups wearing frilly dresses and Lolita-style outfits performed at a recent weekend music event. The emcees sometimes called out to the crowd in Japanese, with shouts of se-no, which means 'all together now', and arigato gozaimashita, which means 'thank you very much'. After the show, fans lined up to chat with the idols at the venue's booths. These meet-and-greet sessions are called 'perks meetings'. The paid service allows fans to take pictures with the idols, get autographs and chat with the girls for a few minutes. An autographed photo and a two-minute chat cost 100 yuan (US$14). Chinese amateur girl group Affloret perform onstage. According to Chinese media, the number of underground idol groups in the country has skyrocketed since the end of pandemic restrictions, from around 40 in 2023 to more than 250 in March 2025.

Cat Video Fest is a global success, raises US$1 million for charity
Cat Video Fest is exactly what it sounds like. A selection of all things feline – silly, cuddly, heartwarming and very funny. The 73-minute screening is made up of videos curated by Will Braden. His business cards read: 'I watch cat videos'. It's not a joke or an exaggeration. Braden watches thousands of hours of online videos to make the annual compilation. Only a select few will make it to the final cut. A portion of ticket proceeds goes to cat-focused charities, shelters and animal welfare organisations. Since 2019, the screening event has raised over US$1 million. This is its eighth year, and it is bigger than ever. For the first time, the compilation will screen in France, Spain, Japan and Brazil, alongside the United States, the United Kingdom and Denmark.

Dinosaur auctions soar as collectors bid millions for prehistoric treasures
Dinosaur fossil auctions have become popular in recent years, attracting collectors eager to own a piece of prehistoric history. These auctions often feature rare and well-preserved specimens that can fetch staggering prices. Even the most well-preserved fossils aren't complete. Experts use sculpted materials and 3D printing to fill in missing pieces. In 2022, 'Shen' was set to be the first T. rex fossil auctioned in Hong Kong and Asia. But it was cancelled when concerns were raised that parts of the skeleton could have been copied from 'Stan' fossils. Even though some scientists believe fossils should only be used for science or shown to the public, dinosaur skeletons are prized by private collectors. Prices for fossils have increased significantly over the past 25 years. Here are the most expensive dinosaurs of five different species to ever be auctioned publicly. Apex: This Stegosaurus fossil was excavated in the US state of Colorado in 2023. With an impressive 254 bones out of 319, it was last auctioned on July 17, 2024, for HK$348 million. Stan: In 1992, this T. rex was excavated with 188 fossil bones from South Dakota in the United States. It was most recently auctioned for HK$247 million on October 6, 2020. Hector: The Deinonychus antirrhopus is the inspiration behind the velociraptor in the Jurassic Park films. Meanwhile, the actual velociraptor was the size of a turkey. Measuring three metres long, this fossil sold for HK$97 million on May 12, 2022. Its 126 bones were removed from the ground in 2015 in Montana. Big John: This Triceratops was auctioned on October 21, 2021, for HK$60 million. This fossil was dug up in South Dakota in 2015 with more than 200 bones. Vulcain: At 21 metres in length, this Apatosaurus with 300 fossil bones sold for HK$50 million on November 16, 2024. It was excavated in 2021 from Wyoming. The dinosaurs featured here lived during various stages of the Mesozoic Era, specifically the Jurassic and Cretaceous periods. Although they were discovered in the same region, some of these giants never even crossed paths. Unique geological formations, developed palaeontological sciences and private excavation laws make the United States a particularly fertile ground for discovering dinosaurs.
