Woman finds live worms inside chicken sausage bun in JB
IMAGINE this — you pick up a chicken sausage bun on sale, planning to enjoy it for dinner. But at home, as you pierce the sausage, you spot worms wriggling inside. That's exactly what happened to TikTok user @c0qqu3teeeee, who purchased a Mayo Chicken Sausage Bun for RM5 from the bakery section of a hypermarket in Johor Bahru. In a five-second TikTok video that has since gone viral, she filmed the shocking sight: worms visibly moving inside the sausage. 'Luckily I peeled it first before eating,' she wrote in the caption. ALSO READ: M'sian horrified to find worms crawling in chocolate bar The unsettling video has since gained over 843,000 views and more than 1,700 comments, with Malaysian netizens expressing shock and disgust at the discovery. Many also urged her to return the item and request a refund. 'Go get a refund. These people like to play around with things like this. Even when the item can't be sold anymore, they still sell it,' commented PandaGy. Other users chimed in with similar experiences, especially when it came to discounted bread items. 'We also often buy bread that's on sale, and you really have to check carefully before buying. One time, I bought it and when I opened it, there were eggs inside. So now I don't buy it anymore — just stick to buying cooked daily meals,' wrote Shuhaahmad. 'I usually check the expiry date before buying but recently when I bought it, I got hard peanuts. It's usually okay, but after this, I'm definitely not buying it anymore,' said another user.

Siti Nurhaliza to debut new song at Singapore concert
Singaporean fans of Siti Nurhaliza are in for a treat, as the Malaysian pop queen will debut a new song at her Singapore Indoor Stadium concert on July 26. 'Singapore has always been special,' she tells The Straits Times in a Zoom interview conducted in Malay from her office in Kuala Lumpur on June 16. 'If you look back at my past concerts there, I've always had some exclusive performances. So, yes, I have a new song. It hasn't been released yet, and I plan to debut it exclusively at the concert.' The 46-year-old declines to reveal its title, but teases it is a ballad. The upcoming gig comes two decades after she last performed at the Singapore Indoor Stadium. She has staged concerts here multiple times, including two nights at The Star Theatre in June 2024, as well as a show with Canadian songwriter and producer David Foster, also at The Star Theatre, in 2023. The Singapore Indoor Stadium, which can accommodate up to 12,000 people, is larger than her usual Singapore venues, so fans can expect 'a big sound', says the singer behind pop hits such as Aku Cinta Padamu, Purnama Merindu and Bukan Cinta Biasa. '(The place) holds so many memories for me. It's a huge venue and that makes the responsibility even bigger. We're bringing a mini orchestra to deliver a more powerful sound. 'I'm thankful to return to Singapore for this concert. I promise fans a performance they will never forget. This time, I'll sing songs I rarely perform, and some that have never been performed live.' One of Malaysia's most decorated musicians, the Pahang-born music star was awarded the Biduanita Negara accolade in November 2024. She is the third artiste to receive the title, after late Malay singing icons Saloma and Sharifah Aini. She also holds the title of Datuk Seri in Malaysia. Siti made her debut after winning a national singing contest by television station Radio Televisyen Malaysia in 1995. The upcoming concert is part of a series of events, including an exhibition at shopping centre Pavilion Kuala Lumpur, that kicked off in March to celebrate her three decades in music. She is still one of the top singers in Malaysia and was the most streamed local artiste among Spotify listeners in the country in 2024. In March, her 2018 song Anta Permana was included in a playlist of favourite songs by British monarch King Charles III, who described her as an 'outstanding Malaysian artiste'. Her 20th full-length album, Sitism , was released in 2023. Her follow-up, she reveals, will focus on traditional Malay music, and she is in the process of gathering songs from both seasoned and new composers. 'What I'll never forget is the loyalty of my fans – that's something that can't be replaced,' she says of the highlight of her long entertainment career. 'After 30 years, if Gen Z recognises my name, that's the biggest honour for me.' She is touched when a new generation of artistes cite her as a role model and influence, but insists she also learns from her younger counterparts. Her Singapore show, for example, will feature guest singer Hael Husaini, the 37-year-old Malaysian known for pop and R&B hits such as Jampi. 'They give me fresh ideas. Experienced artistes shouldn't think we know everything, we need to collaborate.' Besides her singing career, she is also a successful entrepreneur whose business empire spans cosmetics, clothes, and food and beverage. She married businessman Khalid Mohamad Jiwa, better known as Datuk K, in 2006. The couple have a seven-year-old daughter, Siti Aafiyah, and four-year-old son, Muhammad Afwa. Juggling motherhood and work is not easy, she admits. 'I've been trained since a young age to be disciplined. It's in my blood now,' she says on how she strikes a balance. 'But I still need rest and time with my children. I also take them to every concert – they are my motivation to give my best on stage.' Show business is a tough industry, she acknowledges, which is why it is not something she would recommend for her kids. 'In my heart, I hope they don't follow the path of becoming singers, even if they have the talent.' – The Straits Times/Asia News Network

(Video) Local VFX Artist Sofian Teases 'Superman' Promo Collab With Actor David Corenswet
Whether you know him as Sofyank96 or by his real name, Sofian, the local visual effects (VFX) artist has certainly come a long way since his early days of content creation. With an impressive résumé that includes producing spectacular promotional videos for films and collaborations with Hollywood stars such as Paul Rudd and Tom Cruise, there's little doubt that the 28-year-old is well on his way to achieving his dream of making it big. It looks like he'll be adding another Hollywood collaboration to his portfolio. Earlier this week, the local content creator teased his followers that he was heading to the Philippines to work on a promotional video with a very 'super' actor, who is set to release his upcoming film later this year. 'I'll be flying to the Philippines to film a new collaboration with an actor from an upcoming superhero film! Any guesses who it is?' Sofian captioned a photo of himself at the airport on Instagram. With several titles announced this year, many speculated it could be either Marvel's 'Fantastic Four' or DC's 'Superman'. However, the answer was officially revealed yesterday (Thursday, 19th June). The Malaysian VFX artist posted a Reel on his Instagram, showing him walking down a street in formal attire while reading a newspaper. Suddenly, beams of light, possibly missiles, appeared in the sky, with one striking a section of the building directly above him and several civilians. Sofian sprang into action, shielding the bystanders from the falling debris with his body before flying off, as the camera panned to reveal the iconic 'S' symbol in the sky. If that wasn't obvious enough, the influencer confirmed the exciting news in his caption, writing: 'I had the opportunity to join the 'Superman' movie junket in the Philippines. Soon, I'll be filming content with Superman himself, David Corenswet. Pray that everything goes smoothly.' As expected, Malaysians expressed their excitement over Sofian's achievement, praising him for representing the country on an international stage. Some even joked that the content creator collaborating with Hollywood stars is akin to Thanos collecting the Infinity Stones in 'Avengers: Infinity War' and 'Avengers: Endgame.' Others quipped that it was Superman who was lucky to be meeting Sofian, joking that the iconic 'S' symbol actually stands for the first letter of the Malaysian star's name. We look forward to seeing Sofian's upcoming collab with the American actor! Check out the teaser below: Sources: Instagram, Twitter What's your Reaction? +1 0 +1 0 +1 0 +1 0 +1 0 +1 0
