Malaysian celebrity Raja Ilya caused yet another controversy, all thanks to her recent updates on her Instagram account.
The former “Gerak Khas” actress recently shared a few pictures with her fans during her honeymoon in Langkawi. The photos, of course, include a few shots with her husband, Trent Garrett. However, some felt that they were inappropriate and explicit.
The comments section has been flooded with tons of negative remarks by local netizens. In this case, Ilya (full name Raja Ramilah Begum Raja Mohammad) was called out by some internet trolls for showcasing more than necessary contents in her social media account.
They also pointed out that the 34-year-old is being insensitive and disrespecting her religious culture. On top of that, a fan even compared the sensual photos to a rape scene. Check out some of the comments below:
Prior to this, she was criticised by Malaysian cybernauts after she posted a picture of herself and Trent kissing during their wedding ceremony held in the latter’s home country in Perth, Australia.

Good news music lovers! Sam Tsui is returning to Southeast Asia.
The 30-year-old singer-songwriter will be embarking on the “Gold Jacket Tour” to 10 cities in Asia this year. Tsui was initially slated to perform at OMNI Waves 2019 but the event got cancelled. Thankfully, fans are getting another chance to see him live!
An excerpt from his website reads:
“To date, his videos, including covers, medleys, and mashups, have amassed over 500 million hits on Youtube alone, with each new release, including his debut original album ‘Make It Up’, and his brand new 2018 album ‘Trust’ contributing to his ever-expanding worldwide fanbase.”
The internet singing sensation’s 10 cities tour include:
Hai Di Lao (海底捞) is on a roll! Ready to hear some good news?
We just heard that the popular hot pot chain is opening another branch (presumably 6th outlet) in IOI City Mall, Putrajaya. Banners have already been spotted at the mall.
No word yet on when it’ll be ready since the area is still undergoing renovation work. As you may know, Hai Di Lao recently introduced an online queueing system for customers to queue remotely instead of showing up in person at the restaurant itself.
The Hai Di Lao outlets in Malaysia are:
Sunway Pyramid
Pavilion KL (Pavilion Elite)
Gurney Paragon Mall, Penang – still under renovation and expected to open this year.
Recently, the internet community has been buzzing over a recent video of Nur Sajat entitled “Mari Belajar Sebut ABC Bersama Sajat” that were spreading online.
It all started when the 2 minutes and 20 seconds clip was shared by a Twitter user known as @IzzRaifHarz. The video features an edited compilation of the girdle entrepreneur’s signature catchphrases according to order for all the 24 letters.
Semoga pembelajaran menyebut ABC dengan Sajat ini dapat mengembalikan semula sel-sel otak anda pic.twitter.com/CaXrH6w5cZ
As of writing, the tweet managed to gain over 50,000 retweets! As a result, Sajat (full name Nur Sajat Kamaruzzaman) also became a trending topic on Twitter.
Sajat seems to be unbothered about someone using her as the subject of the clip. In fact, she took to her Instagram account to share the splendid news about her being viral to her fans. She also shared the viral clip on her account as well.
Local netizens couldn’t help but to be entertained after seeing the full clip. One twitter user known as @theaqil_ said that he couldn’t stop laughing and was entertained by the clever editing.
Another user, @SyahidAdnan also expressed his wish hoping that his nephew will never watch the video and be influenced. Or else, his future will be “shattered”. Check out some of their replies here:
@IzzRaifHarz’s magical hands indeed deserve a standing ovation from us. Kudos to him as well as Sajat for being confidently…herself.
Planning to hang out in Kuala Lumpur this weekend? You might want to think twice cause the 2019 Kuala Lumpur Standard Chartered Marathon (KLSCM) is happening on Saturday and Sunday.
Since the haze has subsided, the show must go on – in this case, the annual run. As such, a couple of major roads in the city won’t be accessible to motorists. The road closures will take effect from 7am to 10am on Saturday (28th September) and 3am till 11am on Sunday (29th September).

“The health and safety of our runners remain our top priority and we are closely monitoring weather conditions. Rest assured, an announcement will be made by 7:30pm Friday, 27th September upon consultation with all relevant stakeholders,” KLSCM organiser Dirigo said.
Last week, we found out that stripper movie “Hustlers” had been banned in Malaysia at the 11th hour.
The reason being? LPF (Film Censorship Board of Malaysia) found that the “excessive obscene content” was too vulgar for local audiences. Square Box Pictures even released a statement, which you can read below:
While “Hustlers” is rated-R, many felt that scenes featuring “sexualised nudity, strong sex references, language (and) drug misuse” could have censored instead. The Elton John biopic “Rocketman” is one example.
Following the news, other international publications from America, UK, Japan, Thailand, India and more started covering it. As far as we know, Malaysia is the only country that ended up banning “Hustlers” after it was scheduled to hit theatres.
Isn’t it ironic that Malaysia has appeared on popular sites such as Billboard, BBC, People, and Cinema Blend for the wrong reason?
Malaysia has banned the movie “Hustlers”, a Jennifer Lopez film based on the real life exploits of a band of strippers who fleeced clients after having drugged them. https://t.co/sY4NBzEVxy
All Blacks star Sonny Bill Williams recently caused a stir on his Instagram account.
The Auckland-born football player recently took to the social media to express his dissatisfaction after knowing that Instagram had allegedly removed his picture of him reciting prayers with teammate Ofa Tu’ungafasi prior to their match with the South African team.
He also demanded an explanation on why the particular photo was flagged for no apparent reason. In addition, diehard All Blacks followers also decided to poke their nose on the issue and came out with their own speculations.
Some even commented that the picture can be seen as too ‘sensitive’ to be posted online. While others also claimed that it was an act of sabotage by an irresponsible party.
However, the real reason on why the post was removed is exactly the opposite from what the fans have been buzzing about. It’s revealed that the person behind the camera is actually a Malaysian photographer, Faiz Azizan.
He shared on his Instagram story saying that he’s disappointed with some people who made use of his work without giving him any credit. Recently, he took to his Instagram to explain the whole situation. Apparently some have reposted his photographs without his consent in the past. A few even placed their own watermark on the photos, as if they’re the ones who captured the shot.
Faiz then decided to report the issue to Instagram. As a result, all of the images were subsequently deleted, including the picture that the 34-year-old posted on his account.
As a response to that, Sonny then uploaded the picture once again – along with credits to Faiz as the photographer. He also took the chance to apologise to Faiz for misunderstanding and clarified that he had received a photo that already had his name cropped out. He later assured that if he’d known about the issue, he would’ve tagged Faiz before posting the picture online.
After taking a 3-year hiatus, TAPAUfest is set to make a comeback next month at The Gasket Alley, Petaling Jaya.
For the uninitiated, TAPAUfest is a fully local and independent festival that is organised by the young creative team at TAPAUtv – Malaysia’s #1 online indie community portal.
The Malaysian indie community and culture festival made history in 2014 as the first and biggest crowd funded festival in Southeast Asia. They collected RM87,705 within a month thanks to their crowd-funding project on Pitchin. They broke another record in 2016 when they collected RM109,890 in 30 days.
“Although crowd funding kicked us off – and proved that the crowd is not only willing to support, but to also put money on our local independent scene – we wanted to grow beyond just being known as ‘that crowd funded festival’,” said Ahmad Faris, Co-Founder of TAPAUtv, and the team leader behind TAPAUfest.
This year, TAPAUfest’s partners include DISQOVR, Snek (Livestreaming Partner), and Vans (Off The Wall Partner), The Gasket Alley (Venue Partner), Marshall Headphones (Audio Partner), Rakita (Media Partner), and Yoodo (Digital Telco Partner).
Staying true to its mission to celebrate and showcase the best of Malaysia’s independent music scene, the lineup at PENTAS this year, boasts different flavors of indie – from young pop punkers, HACKTICK!, emo boys, Milo Dinosaur, harmonious folk ensemble Mafidz – to current crowd favorites IQBAL M.
Representing Hip-Hop and R&B will be label mates, Airliftz and Lunadira collaborating in a shared set. Alternative young bloods, Midnight Fusic, experimental pop quartet, Lust, and pro rockers, Toko Kilat, have also made the cut, with the latter fresh from the success of their “Pemacu Api” Tour. Lastly, power pop legends Lucy In The Loo will make a one-night only comeback at TAPAUfest, alongside brit-pop heavyweights BTSWT (formerly known as Bittersweet).
TAPAUfest also offers a little bit of something for everyone with PASAR, hosting a selection of local streetwear brands, as well as a music collectors market, the talks and workshops at BENGKEL, and the documentary, shorts and feature film screenings at LAYAR. And if you’re hungry, head to WARUNG where a curation of Pasar Malam delicacies awaits.
The details to TAPAUfest 2019 are as follows:
Date: 26th October 2019 (Saturday)
Time: 9am – 12am
Venue: The Gasket Alley, Petaling Jaya
Ticketing: Starts from RM50

Dreams do come true after all – despite the different shapes and sizes.
Growing up as an amputee, voice actress and cosplayer Mandy Pursley grew up not knowing she can do more than what she has. All she had in mind was that not all people would accept her fully. As a result, she was left struggling to embrace her physical difference for quite a long time.
Things took a turn when her daughter learnt about the story of Cinderella in her school last year. At that point, Mandy has seen this as an opportunity to become a good role model for not only her daughter, but also for everyone who’s experienced the exact same situation.
In doing so, Mandy decided to celebrate her ‘difference’ by creating this stunning Cinderella-inspired ballroom costume. The interesting part is – instead of using glass slippers, she switched them to a glass arm to fit the stunning gown. In addition, her husband Ryan also made a special appearance as her real-life Prince Charming.
Check out some of their dreamlike snapshots here:
According to Mandy, she spent estimably 60-hours of her effort in working on the Disney Princess’ gown. “The dress has around $300 worth of materials. The glass arm also used a few $100 worth of materials, plus the time of the talented artist Gilbert Lozano to bring it to life!” she said in an interview.
Additionally, she also hand-crafted her husband’s head to toe Prince Charming outfit – she added that she took 30-hours to finish the costume. For those who are curious, she used her feet for support while sewing, which she described the process like “having 3 arms!”.
After photos of herself with her prince went viral, people all over the internet shared their happiness and were touched with Mandy’s life story. Most of them sent words of love and encouragement for her effort and hard work, despite being an amputee. They also praised her take on reenacting the classic Disney movie.
You ain’t seen nothing yet!
This talented bombshell also spilled that she has made a few other dresses, but she described this project as by far her most difficult one yet. “The whole concept had such special significance to me that I wanted to make sure the dress was worthy of a real princess,” she further added.
She also shared a piece of advice to anyone who’s also facing similar hardships and experience like her. She pointed out that everyone should not “be afraid to dream big and work hard to make it happen! Everyone faces some sort of challenge, but those hurdles can make us stronger and more resilient if we face them with determination and a positive attitude.”
YouTube personality and vlogger Jay Kim (김재한) recently surprised his fans with the news of him converting to Islam.
The news was shared by him via his official YouTube channel as well as his Instagram account. The video shows Jay (real name Kim Jae Han) reciting the shahada (ritual for newly converted Muslims) in front of the members of the Seoul Cental Mosque.
For those who might not know, reciting the shahada is a religious ritual to declare Muslim’s belief that their God (Allah) is only one (No other God besides Allah) as well as claiming that Prophet Muhammad is Allah’s courier.
It’s also revealed that he will go by the name Daud Kim. According to the former singer-songwriter, he was born as a Catholic with the name David. He added that “it would make sense to get the name Daud”. For info, Daud was also one of the 25 Prophets alongside Prophet Muhammad.
His YouTube channel has garnered a large fan base due to its content that is filled with positive vibes on Islamic culture in South Korea. As of writing, his account has generated over 561,000 subscribers online.

As mentioned earlier, Jay Kim began his career in South Korea as as a singer and also songwriter. According to Kmania, the famous YouTuber has released 2 EPs under Media Bridge Entertainment. This makes him technically the 1st ever K-Pop artiste to fully embrace Islam!
The comments section has been filled with his followers expressing their gratitude for his thoughtful decision. Manyl netizens have shared their happiness with the YouTube personality by sending him positive words of encouragement.
Check out the full video of his conversion here + some comments from his fans:
Famous singer-songwriter Shawn Mendes recently made his pitstop for his “The Tour” concert at Seoul, South Korea.
The interesting part is, South Korea’s mega girl group BLACKPINK (블랙핑크) was also seen at the concert. In addition, Lisa, Jisoo and Jennie (minus Rosé) managed to have a meet-up with the 21-year-old backstage. The “In My Blood” heartthrob also took to Instagram and Twitter to share a photo of them.
The interaction between them has indeed warmed BLINKs’ hearts all over the world. There was one thing fans pointed out that was missing though – where did Rosé go? It was later revealed that the group’s vocalist was not there with her fellow members because she was at the Paris Fashion Week. To quote Koreaboo, Rosé is currently “taking the fashion world by storm.”
For those uninitiated, the 23-year-old songstress has wowed everyone with her cover of Mendes’ “Fallin’ All In You”. As a result, fans have expressed their wish for an interaction between the 2. Additionally, a Twitter user also came out with an edited version of Shawn’s recent photo update – this time with Rosé ‘tagging in’ as well.
Besides that, BLINKs all over the world have their fingers crossed that they will get to witness a collaboration between the VMA award-winning artiste and also the “Boombayah” jam makers.
Can you imagine what kind of song will come out if the project manages to come to life? Think about it, the K-pop quartet and Dua Lipa’s duet has already been smashing records left and right. We want more collabs!
Khalil Fong (方大同) is set to bring his “TIO Concert Tour” (方大同TIO灵心之子巡迴演唱会) to Malaysia next year.
Mark your calendars music lovers cause the Hong Kong-based American singer-songwriter will be performing at Resorts World Genting in March 2020. The last time local fans saw him live was back in 2012.
Source: ESPLANADE
Since his debut in 2005, Fong has released 9 studio albums and 5 live albums. Throughout his career, the artist has also picked up numerous awards including Best Male Vocalist at the 28th Golden Melody Awards.
If you’ve been to Fong’s show before then you’ll know that his performances are a fusion of Asian and Western influences. During his concert in Singapore earlier in February, Fong explained that because he’s usually quiet and introverted, he tends to wear something bold and loud to balance things out.
No doubt when the performer returns to Malaysia, fans will get to hear a mixture of familiar favourites mixed with some new material.
Brought to you by MIC Entertainment Group, the details to Khalil Fong’s “TIO Concert Tour” in Malaysia are as follows:

Lance Barber and Zoe Perry play parents George and Mary to 11-year-old Sheldon Cooper, who is a young gifted genius trying navigate the world.
As we delve into season 3, Barber and Perry talk about how their characters have come since the first season. In the interview transcript provided by Warner TV, the duo also share their thoughts on their TV son, Annie Potts’ Meemaw and 80s music.
After two seasons of Young Sheldon, does your on-screen family feel a bit like a real family now? You guys must spend a lot of time together.
Lance: Yeah, I think with any work you do, if you’re with people that many hours a day, it does feel like that. Inevitably, whether it’s contentious or happy, there’s going to be some elements of family feel. Luckily, we all like each other and get along, which isn’t the case always. So, it is a lucky thing that we all do get along and like each other, and the kids are comfortable and affectionate with us. And I’m a parent and Zoe is so phenomenal with kids, so it all worked out very well. It does feel like family.
Zoe: Yeah, totally. I think it is something that we’ve felt very privileged about and that we had luck of having an instant chemistry with one another right off the bat. It was wild, because you don’t always get that.
Do you feel like you’ve taken on any of the traits of your characters? Are there some similarities?
Lance: Yeah, being a dad. He’s a different dad than I am, in regards to a time and a place. He’s from a certain culture and a man of a certain time, and a certain fathering paradigm – I think that mine’s a little more contemporary and modern, and a little more thoughtful. But that’s what I love about George – he doesn’t have those tools, but he’s trying. He’s trying to deal with somebody he really doesn’t understand. And I think that’s noble and charming. He could have been all different kinds of things, you know?
Zoe: Mary’s a bit more straight-laced (than I am), sometimes more rigid than I am.
Sheldon is of course incredibly quirky and has a lot of peculiar habits. Do you have any comparable Sheldon-like quirky habits?
Lance: I feel like when I was a kid, I may have had. I was a bit introverted as a kid. I was one of those. When you’re an actor, either you’re an extrovert, like Iain Armitage, who plays Sheldon, or you’re an introvert who is shy and maybe a little uncomfortable, and you found a community and some comfort by getting into the arts. Which was my story – I think that’s a common story as well.
Tell me about working with Annie Potts who plays Meemaw. She seems like an absolute delight.
Zoe: She’s awesome!
Lance: She’s phenomenal! She’s every bit as Annie Potts-y that you would think that she is. She’s just wonderfully talented and wonderful to be around. She’s someone that I grew up watching and admiring. It’s such a thrill that at this point in my life, I get to work with her. When I was a young kid, I was watching her and thinking she was so terrific in things like Ghostbusters and Pretty in Pink. To get to work with her is a trip and she is a firecracker, man. She’s really fantastic!
George is rarely seen without a beer bottle in his hand. What do they actually put in those bottles? Because your character drinks a lot of them!
Lance: Oh, it’s real. You know, I’m hammered about halfway through the day. [Laughs] It’s water. It’s just water. Again, George is a man of a certain culture in a certain area. He’s a beer drinking dad. He’s got a beer gut. And part of my physicality is that they hired me because I looked the part. He needs beer every day. After work he’s in the fridge for it, and that’s just one of the little things about George.
Zoe, is it strange for you to be playing the younger Mary Cooper since your mother Laurie Metcalf played the older Mary Cooper on “The Big Bang Theory”? That must feel a bit surreal.
Zoe: Yeah. When I first heard about the existence of this pilot, I remember my mom saying, “Well, you have to audition.” And I thought, well, yeah, we’ll see – hopefully. And the fact that it just turned out this way was very surreal. I feel like I’ve had a great privilege to get to step into her shoes. Also, just playing with this time of life for Mary Cooper, it gives me some freedom to kind of explore this character in a different stage of life because she’s a bit different than the Mary that Big Bang audiences know, so it’s fun. You get to play in both worlds.
“Young Sheldon”’s a comedy, but what’s wonderful about the show is that there’s dramatic weight to certain storylines as well, like when Mary has a breakdown when she learns a young girl she knew has died in a car crash, or when George has a heart attack. As an actor, is it enjoyable to have that level of drama in there too?
Zoe: Oh, totally. You always crave stretching as an actor, right? And our writers are incredible – they give us so many opportunities, and it’s fun to get to explore different dynamics with each character. In a few recent episodes, Lance and I had some really sweet moments together – that was new for us.
Lance: It’s enormously important to me and a joy to have a job that allows that, for sure. It’s a different tone of the show. I do believe that it is a big factor in the success of the show, that we have moments with heart that are grounded – that makes the comedy pop even more because we like and care about this family. You get to play those great parts, especially with people as wonderful as Zoe Perry – some of the stuff that we’ve gotten to do is fantastic. It’s a joy and a privilege.
There’s lots of great ’80s songs in “Young Sheldon”. Do you have a favourite ’80s track that you hope might wind up getting used in the show?
Lance: Because it’s Texas they do a lot of rock and roll, which is appropriate for anywhere in America in that era. But I always want them to push country, because country music is huge, and certainly in that era and that area of the world. So, I wish they would use a little bit more country stuff.
Zoe: Oh gosh, I’m always impressed with what they come up with. I want to see Raegan dancing to some more Cyndi Lauper soon. That was fun.
“Young Sheldon” season 3 is slated to premiere same day as the US on Warner TV (Unifi TV Ch 451 and Astro Ch 719) on 27th September 2019 (Friday) @ 8:35pm. New episodes follow every Friday @ 8:35pm.
Give us a Cha Cha beat, boy! While many KL-ites spent hours stuck in traffic last Friday night, we got to party with some of Asia’s hottest rappers!
Held at KL Live, Jay Park (박재범) returned to our shores for the 4th time with his “SEXY 4EVA” tour. This time, he even brought along label mate Woo and H1GHR Music’s Haon.
Source: Twitter
Before Jay Park made his grand entrance to the stage, Woo wooed (seriously, no pun intented) the crowd with hits such as “119 Remix” and “Hate You”. The “Show Me The Money” star then ended his set with his debut single “We Are”.
After Woo left the stage, Jay Park stepped in and the crowd went wild. The Korean-American rapper started off with “Forget About Tomorrow”, which is then followed by our personal favourites “Me Like Yuh”, “Iffy” and “All I Wanna Do”. He then took us back to his early days with “Abandoned”, “Know Your Name” and “JOAH”.
When Jay Park left the stage to change his clothes (and probably to catch his breath), 19-year-old rapper Haon immediately took over the stage and continued to heighten the atmosphere with “Barcode” and “Boong Boong”.
As soon as Haon finished his set, Jay Park stepped back in and this time, he was joined by local hip hop artiste, Joe Flizzow. Malaysian fans were in for a treat as the duo performed their track, “Twisted Dreams”, for the first time ever!
But nothing, and we mean nothing, can beat the moment when Jay Park took his shirt off and perform his sexiest track, “Mommae”. Needless to say, the crowd went berserk. It was so surreal to see his bare, chiseled chest (and abs!) grooving to the beats of the song right in front of us. After performing his last song, “Sexy 4 Eva”, the rapper came back with a short “Nothin’ On You” – which swept all the ladies off their feet.
Thank you Jay Park, for bringing K-town to Kuala Lumpur. We totally enjoyed ourselves – even though there’s much more we need to learn about the Korean hip hop scene.
To male fans out there, beware because Baby Shima has something to say!
The rising star recently took to her Instagram to issue a warning to a dirty-minded netizen who took time to send her sexually suggestive comments online.
For the uninitiated, this is not the first time Shima has faced this sort of situation. Prior to this, the 26-year-old’s photo was allegedly used for pornography sites in Indonesia. However, the “Roadblock Hatiku” songstress has came out with her official statement – ultimately denying all the reports.
On her recent update on Instagram, she posted a picture of an internet troll’s comments about him being “sangap” (sexual craving) for the dangdut singer. She also spilled the identity of the Instagram user – @nasrul_nazim. Her caption reads:
“You’re not the first one! Don’t ever come out with any stupid excuses (that your handphone was hacked) ….Apparently there are still a few out there who are not aware on this!! Just wait for the next action. Thanks for the comments ”
Most of her fans also expressed their anger with the comments that he had left to the former “D’Academy Asia Indonesia” contestant. Additionally, some also empathised with Shima’s current situation and hoped that she would take immediate action.
Some keyboard warriors also came out with their own words and slammed the young Instagram user. With one netizen even compared him to a “monkey” due to his immature actions of leaving sexually suggestive comments to Shima. They further added that he should be sent to the police so that he will be kept in a “cage” or jail.
Check out other followers’ comments here:
According to mStar, back in December, Shima lodged a police report after she was allegedly harassed by a netizen on her Instagram account. She further claimed that she had also received suggestive pictures from a married man.
We really applaud Shima’s brave steps in ensuring her safety against this latest foul-mouthed troll.
Aaron Carter was recently slapped with a restraining order from his brother Nick Carter and sister Angel Carter after some disturbing death threats.
Amid his family drama, the 31-year-old singer has made headlines once again. This time, his statement is in the form of a huge tattoo featuring Rihanna on his face. Take a look:
Source: Instagram/ GQ
In case you don’t remember, the tattoo is inspired by Riri’s 2013 British GQ cover. The ink appears to be the Greek Mythology monster Medusa, where she has snakes on her head instead of hair. The scary creature also has the ability to turn men to stone just by looking at them.
Aaron even live-streamed himself getting the bizarre tattoo that covers his jaw, cheek, cheekbone, temple and under his eye. The Hollywood celeb, who has many other tattoos all over his body, even reportedly got a visit from the police – twice – after fans allegedly called emergency services claiming he needed help.
The “I Want Candy” hit-maker uploaded 2 different selfies taken in his bathroom over the weekend. In the first snap, Aaron is seen wearing a long-sleeved black sweatshirt with an icy, silver chain around his neck.
His 2nd snap – this time, shirtless – gave us a better look at his statement piece. Aaron did not address the new Rihanna/Medusa tattoo. Instead his caption proclaims that he’s “the biggest thing in music right now”.
What’s wrong with you. Are you ok. Like honestly, let’s say I did have a mental illness and because I get a face tattoo on MY BODY. you want to tell me publicly to be sent to a mental institution? I’d out be out in five minutes and they’ve already tried. Many times. STOP. https://t.co/uyUJQeo8Q3
If you think that sexual harassment only happens to the female community – then think again!
Recently, a video clip of K-Clique member MK being kissed by a female fan went viral online. The woman had seemingly got too excited and crossed the line.
Source: Twitter
For those who are curious, the video shows MK (real name Muhammad Hairi Amin) being ambushed by a group of fans who wanted to take a picture with him. However, things started to get out of hand when a woman planted a kiss on the 27-year-old’s cheek.
MK was left stunned and uncomfortable as a response to the fan’s action. Check out the full clip of the whole situation here:
Local netizens were left fuming after the video went viral. In this case, some expressed their disappointment over the issue. Some even bashed the woman online for having no shame in doing that.
In addition, a Twitter user known as @ddnainggolan gave out his opinion that many netizens will create much fuss if such an incident happened to a female celebrity. But if it happened to men, many would do the opposite and just take it easy instead. Check out their comments:
Sexual assault. But nobody cares when it comes to men. The energy would be different if it happen to girl.
As a response, the “Ha Tepuk” rapper assured fans that he doesn’t want to create more drama from the matter. He further added that the woman has came out and apologised to him following the incident.
“The female fan contacted me and said sorry after she realised her mistakes. I don’t think this thing should be further exaggerated,” he said in an interview with mStar.
We fully understand that it can be thrilling for some when meeting their favourite act in person. But still, as fellow human beings, we must be aware on what is appropriate and what’s not.
Many people (including celebrities) have publicly expressed their dislike for Donald Trump. One of them is Mark Hamill.
Known for playing Luke Skywalker in the “Star Wars” franchise, the 68-year-old actor took a jab at Donald’s daughter Ivanka Trump after she tweeted out “The Force is strong in my family“.

Ivanka posted a cute family photo with her husband Jared Kushner and their three children. Their youngest son, Theodore, is seen showing off his love for the “Star Wars” franchise by dressing up as a Stormtrooper.
However, one particular Jedi was feeling the love from the Trumps. Hamill, who has been vocal about his stand on the current political climate, shaded Ivanka by saying, “You misspelled ‘Fraud’.” He also included the hashtag #GoForceYourself for good measure.
While some found his joke hilarious, others thought he crossed the line because it involved a child. Some ever claimed that the veteran actor had turned “to the dark side” with his shady tweet.
This isn’t the first time Hamill has showed his distaste for the US president. He previously lend his voice to read out Donald’s tweets in The Joker’s voice and compared him to Jabba the Hutt.
