This new karaoke joint in Singapore has vibrant themed rooms and affordable $9.90/pax 2-hour sessions
Gone are the days where KTV joints were dark, nondescript, and filled with the telltale scent of cigarettes. Ever since opened its first outlet in Singapore, things have taken a fun turn with rooms boasting futuristic neon-lit decor and adorable character designs. The family-friendly chain now has multiple branches under its belt – including those at hotspots like Orchard and the revamped CQ @ Clarke Quay – and a new one has recently been added to the list. latest opening is located at Leisure Park Kallang. Unlike most of its other outlets, it's not quite central, but it's a stone's throw from the Singapore Indoor Stadium and National Stadium – making it a great spot to pre-game with your favourite songs just before a concert. Now, where was this when we needed it during Taylor Swift's The Eras Tour last year? The entrance and corridors of this particular outlet is similar to the rest – sleek, steely, and almost spaceship-like. But its rooms bring a colourful surprise with themes featuring your favourite childhood characters including Donald Duck, Super Mario, Doraemon, Barbie, and the gang from Toy Story. There's also a yellow polka-dotted room with framed art by Japanese artist Yayoi Kusama. Make your booking in advance to ensure you secure your favourite one! It's not just the themed rooms you can look forward to – prices are wallet-friendly as well. Leisure Park Kallang has a special promotional rate of $9.90 per person for two-hour sessions from Mondays to Thursdays, between 12pm to 7pm. That works out to just $4.95 per hour, which is even cheaper than some hawker meals. This ongoing happy hour rate is specifically for the thematic rooms which fit up to six persons, but no worries if you're just going in a pair or trio, because you're not required to fill up the room to its maximum capacity. If you're in need of a good date activity that won't bust your wallet, this would be a cute option aside from our list of other affordable date ideas in Singapore. As for those who are keen to hang out in a larger group, check out the outlet's other promotions

Karl Lagerfeld and Donald Duck Reunite for Capsule
QUACKING UP — An app that would let you 'Karl-ify' yourself would certainly be fun. Look what it's done for Donald Duck, who is now logging his second collaboration with the Karl Lagerfeld fashion house dressed in dark sunglasses, a high-collared shirt and a black blazer — his head feathers pulled into a jaunty ponytail. More from WWD Match Your Stripes While Traveling With My Style Bags' New Collab Inside Designer Arthur Arbesser's First Interior Design Project for the Altstadt Vienna Hotel Jil Sander Steps Into Venetian Glass With Formafantasma and Venini to Fete New Venice Store The latest Disney x Karl Lagerfeld capsule collection riffs on a hand-colored illustration of Donald Duck that the late designer created in 2004 to honor that beloved character's 70th anniversary, dressing the bird just like him. (The German designer was born only a few months before Donald Duck made his first appearance on film, cementing his affection for the temperamental bird.) Back in 2004, Disneyland Paris quickly sold out of a limited-edition series of 3,000 shirts bearing the artwork. And in 2023, when The Walt Disney Company marked its centenary year, it teamed up with Karl Lagerfeld. The fashion house won't divulge figures, but characterized that tie-up as a great success. The sketch, in various interpretations both color and black-and-white, appears on jeans jackets, sweaters, a bomber jacket and a casual blazer for the 2025 capsule, launching Thursday at Karl Lagerfeld stores, some Disney stores, select wholesale accounts and online at and Accessories options include backpacks, tote bags, handbags, sneakers, sunglasses, scarves and umbrellas. Pier Paolo Righi, chief executive officer at Karl Lagerfeld, considers the sketch a true collector's piece from the brand's archive, and a great example of the late German designer's sense of humor. 'Karl has created this iconic artwork himself to blend the appearance of two icons and merge it to one,' he told WWD. 'The request of Karl fans all over the bring back this art piece back to our collection was too big not to!'

Disneyland Celebrates Its 70th Birthday With Grand Year-Long Festivities
Disneyland (read: the "happiest place on Earth") is celebrating its 70th birthday this year. With a massive year-long-plus celebration planned ahead, this year will indeed be magical for all those visiting the theme park in California. The festivities kicked off on May 16 under the fitting theme 'Celebrate Happy!' On Thursday, Disneyland Resort in Anaheim, California, hosted colourful parades and shows amidst the mesmerising decorations of the theme park to mark the beginning of the grand celebration. Stage show director for Disney Live Entertainment, Scott Damien Arroyo, also revealed that the gala events will not thrive in the past; instead, they will boast a series of inputs from the future as well. "We don't live in the past, but we honour the past. We really are always looking backwards as we move forward,' he told People. FYI: Disneyland opened on July 17, 1955, and since then, it has become one of the must-visit destinations on the bucket list of many. The celebrations opened with 'Celebrate Happy Cavalcade' parades on the Main Street Magic Shop. It featured all-time favourite Disney characters like Donald Duck, Daisy Duck, Mickey Mouse and others. With a massive crowd witnessing the procession, which also included various moving stages and dance performances by Snow White, Jasmine, and Disney Princesses, including Pocahontas, it made everyone groove to the brand new songs. Posting a lovely video from the same event on the official Instagram page of Disneyland, the caption read, 'What's a celebration without a cavalcade?' View this post on Instagram A post shared by Disneyland (@disneyland) Jennifer Magill with Disney Live Entertainment also mentioned Easter eggs finding a spot in the colourful celebration of Disneyland's birthday. 'You can look closely and you can see in Mickey's jacket, there are some nods to Sorcerer Mickey in there, as well as the pixie dust motif throughout those designs. And they're just so fun and contemporary and I think our guests are really going to enjoy seeing them,' she added. Also Read: Disney World Gets Its First Michelin Star Restaurant Following this, the events will also feature a 'Tapestry of Happiness' projection show for five minutes at the It's A Small World ride in Disneyland. 'I call this a little show with a big heart. It's beautiful. It's a five-minute projection show on the facade of It's A Small World that's going to play three times a night,' said Susanna Tubert, the creative director of Disney Live Entertainment. Then comes the 'Paint the Night' Parade, offering dazzling electric floats featuring characters from Tinkerbell to Ariel and even Monsters, Inc. and Cars. This is followed by the 'Wondrous Journeys' Nighttime Spectacular, just a short walk from the Sleeping Beauty Castle in the evening. There are also other shows like "Better Together: A Pixar Pals Celebration!" Parade in Disney California Adventure Park, fireworks over the Disneyland Castle, and many other events lined up.
