Hong Ling and Nick Teo wrapped up their "China-Taiwan trip".
The celeb couple "didn't plan anything" for this trip, which really surprised Hong Ling. As the actress shared in her caption, her fiancé Nick is more of a planner, but his recent solo backpacking trip seems to have changed the way he travels. Nice.

Allan Wu gave us a huge throwback (and a shoutout!)
Sorry, took us a minute to recover from all the muscles on display.
"Never really got how this bicycle-themed cover shoot for 8 DAYS had to do with the subject matter (sic)," Allan joked in his caption. Yes, the interview was about his divorce from former actress Wong Lilin, and the shoot was all about Allan playing a sexy mechanic, but well... the end result was hunky dory, okay?

Football mania is at an all time high in Singapore.
And of course, Tottenham player Son Heung Min had something to do with it.
Can we just say that we're mad jealous of Fauzie Laily and his wife, who got front-row seats to Tottenham Hotspurs' friendly match against Singapore Premier League team Lion City Sailors?

Time to play spot the local celeb.
Looks like the opening of Tam Chiak Kopitiam means that there's one new venue for local celebs to catch up over a meal, and we're loving it.

Speaking of the NDP...
Fellow DJ Kenneth Kong and his family attended the NDP preview session over the weekend, and Kenneth, of course, made sure to show his support for Hazelle while there. Nice!
