Lady Gaga spotted at Changi Airport clearing security check before flying to Dubai
After wrapping up her four-night Mayhem World Tour stop in Singapore, American pop star Lady Gaga, was spotted at Changi Airport undergoing a security check at boarding gate C1.
The 39-year-old was seen by Xiaohongshu user Eva, getting ready to board an Emirates flight to Dubai that left on Sunday (May 25) at 1.40am.
Wait, Gaga flew on a commercial flight and not on a private jet?
According to Eva, who is a fan of the singer, she was wandering around the airport when she recognised Gaga's fiance, Michael Polansky, eventually spotting the singer beside him.
Dressed in a black form-fitting outfit and towering platforms, Gaga navigated the security check without an entourage.
Eva couldn't believe her eyes and said she had to use her phone to zoom in to Gaga to confirm that it was her.
Photos in the comments indicated that Gaga's flight was bound for Dubai.
While some fans were excited about the possibility of bumping into her in the UAE, others speculated that she was simply transiting before returning to the United States.

'Not bad,' 1st-time busker delighted to earn S$125.30 after 40 minutes
TikTok screengrab/ @rongtinn SINGAPORE: When a woman who tried her hand (or should we say, voice) at busking for the first time earlier this week, it turned out to be a pleasant surprise for her and her keyboardist, thanks to a supportive 'angel' and those who gathered round to watch them perform. Rong Tin documented her experience on TikTok, where she showed that it was more nerve-wracking than probably most of us could ever imagine. @rongtinn Will be busking again this wed (28/5, from ard 7:30-9:30pm) in front of The Cathay! Come find me if you are free ❤️ #sg #busking ♬ original sound – Ronggg While she was 'super excited' about the experience, her first foray into busking did not start out smoothly at all, as the keyboard bag of her accompanist broke just as they left the car and headed outside 313@Somerset mall, where they were set to perform, which made her wonder if it was a 'sign' of things to come that evening. Luckily, the bag was soon fixed by her 'awesome partner,' and they set up soon after. However, she was beset by doubts, thinking, 'What if nobody stops to watch our performance at all? What if we don't get a single cent from today?' The location hardly helped, as she realized while beginning to sing that her voice needed to compete with the other noises in the vicinity, leading her to quip, 'Now I know why nobody actually picks this location.' Nevertheless, not one to give up, they continued singing, and things began to turn when she saw one woman filming them. 'She looks like an angel to me,' she said. And then, another woman dropped a S$50 bill into the keyboard case, which served as their donation box. In her video, Ms Rong thanked the two women, giving them a special shoutout because after that, 'magically,' more people began dropping money into the case, and at one point, a small crowd had gathered around them. They ended at 9:40 p.m. after their speaker ran out of battery, and counted their earnings in the car. Ms Rong and her partner ended up making S$125.30 for their maiden 40-minute performance and headed out to get 'a nice supper' afterward. 'I think that's not bad,' she said, adding that they also got a new speaker from the money they made that night. Ms Rong also performed on Wednesday night in front of The Cathay. Here's a sample of her lovely voice. @rongtinn Want to turn your hobby into a source of income? Download WerkSG now 😀 Not only can u list ur services but also look for plenty of job opportunities!

Chinese tourist gets charged S$200 cleaning fee for bringing durian into hotel, warns others
SINGAPORE: After a tourist from China ate a durian in a local hotel, she was allegedly slapped with a S$200 cleaning fee. The woman took to Xiaohongshu, widely regarded as China's equivalent to Instagram, earlier this week to warn others so that they don't end up making the same costly mistake. Commenters have said, however, that she should have known better in the first place, especially as signs abound saying that durians are not allowed in certain places, such as on public transport. The tourist, who goes by @ 幽蓝桑 (Blue Mulberry) on Xiaohongshu, posted a video on Monday (May 26). In it, she recounted that she and a friend had bought durian from a vendor's stall the day before. They could not eat the fruit at the stall, as there was no seating in the area. Therefore, after the vendor packed up the fruit in a styrofoam box, they took it back to the hotel to eat it there. On the taxi ride back to the hotel, the post author's friend remarked that she could smell the fruit, despite it being in the box. Out of concern for the taxi driver, 幽蓝桑 tied the plastic bag more tightly around the box. See also Exploring the New Wave of Luxury Hotels in Singapore The cabby said nothing about the smell, and the post author added that she was able to enjoy the fruit at the hotel later that night. The next day, after she returned to the hotel from a tour around Singapore, Ms. Fang discovered a letter that the hotel management had left in her room. She was informed that the housekeeping staff had detected the smell of durian in her room, for which the hotel would charge a S$200 cleaning fee. She said in her video that she and her friend were stunned at the charge and could hardly believe it. A screenshot of the letter from the hotel shows that it reads, 'Please be informed that our Housekeeper found durian smell in your room. We would like to gently inform you that a S$200 will be imposed for a cleaning fee.' 'S$200 is about 1,000 RMB,' she said in her video. She then went online to see whether others had been in her situation and found out that many people, like herself, were unaware that they were not allowed to bring durian into their hotel rooms. While she acknowledged to the staff that she had been wrong in bringing and eating durian into her room, she asked for a discount on the cleaning fee, having found out that other tourists had been successful in getting this fee waived. The hotel, however, stood firm, telling her they needed to engage professional cleaning services and that the room would not be usable for some days until the pungent smell of durian dissipated. She ended her video with a warning to tourists not to do as she did. Netizens, however, said that the tourist could have used some common sense. ' Tourist was not 'fined,' a cleaning fee of S$200 was imposed, to make the room ' stayable' for the next guest,' one wrote. ' Is she travelling for the first time? Other hotels in the region also prohibit durian in their rooms,' another asked. ' Upon arrival at Changi Airport, all passengers are greeted with clear visual signages and multimedia displays outlining key local laws—no smoking in prohibited areas, no durians in public transport or certain premises, no spitting, no littering, mandatory toilet flushing, and prohibition on chewing gum importation. These notices are available in English and supported by pictorial guides and multiple language translations. Additionally, most hotels display specific signs at their reception counters and in-room directories—often with a no durian icon clearly visible,' pointed out a commenter. /TISG Read also: Bill Gates spotted trying out durian during Singapore visit
