Gotta start the year off in style, just like Diana Ser, who blessed us with a rare pic of her hubby, former actor James Lye.

Every moment’s an Instagrammable one, as Joanne and Yuwu show us. Oh, and in the case of Ah Wu, a perfect opportunity for some general life musings too.

“Renovation, I really don’t know where to start, just like the Cantonese saying, [it’s not something that can be explained easily]. Every day, with every new problem solved, we become one step closer to our dream house. To see it progress step-by-step, it’s tiring, [yet] satisifying, with a tinge of regret too. Everyday, we make all sorts of decisions, with the utmost care. The moment we slip up, we’ll have to foot the bill [for our mistake]. Just like in life ‘cos of the decisions I made, I’ve become who I am [today],” he wrote in his caption.

According to Suhaimi (and FLY Entertainment artiste Darius Tan too).

”A couple of years ago, we did some workout together and some people couldn’t tell the difference between me and Allan Wu. Ok..ok...the rest shut up (sic),” he wrote in his caption, with Darius,and a number of netizens chiming in to agree with his caption.

Apart from receiving the coolest gift ever from her daughter Tay Ying, Huifang-jie also got a huge bouquet of flowers from her son Calvert Tay, along with a very thoughtful and sweet caption.

All together now: Aww…

Happy birthday, Ah Jie! The celebrations kicked off early for Zoe, who had an advanced birthday celebration with former actresses Angela Ang and Phyllis Quek. Back at home, it was a triple celebration for Zoe and her two beloved pooches, Kiki and Pepper, who are also January babies. 

(P.S: Kiki actually shares the same birthday as Zoe. Talk about a match made in heaven.)

“My friends said, since [AJ] and [Alexa’s] birthdays are just one week apart, and the friends you’ll be inviting to the party are the same, why not hold a joint party,” Yvonne shared in her caption, revealing pictures of the Paw Patrol-themed party she’d organised.

But there was just one small problem… “I thought it was a good idea, so I did just that, only to end up having to stay up overnight to bake two cakes,” Yvonne went on to say. But it looks like Yvonne's effort were not in vain 'cos the two cakes were all gobbled up by everyone at the party.

Happy birthday to AJ and Alexa, who turned six and four respectively!

Well… kinda, but not really. For those who’re wondering what’s going on, well, you’ll just have to catch-up on the last few episodes of Mister Flower on meWATCH ‘cos we sure aren’t dropping any spoilers here!

Yet another Mediacorp artiste falls prey to the dreaded lower back injury. Ya Hui shared that she injured her lower back on the eve of 2021 — not exactly the best start to the year. However, despite her injury, she continued to attend a scheduled countdown event later that night ‘cos she didn’t want to let her fans down.

"I know I shouldn’t have attended the party but some of you had signed up for it because of me, so I didn’t want to disappoint you all on the last day of 2020,” she wrote.

"I really felt like a baby that day. My parents had to bring food to me, my brother had to fetch me to and fro from the event and help me change into my slippers after that, my stylists had to support me when I walked and my mum had to wake up in the middle of the night to help me get changed... Thank you,” Ya Hui added. 

Thankfully, the actress was able to get some rest after the event, and has been "lying on the bed" since January 1.

Take care!

It might be hard to believe, but once upon a time, the ever-cheery and upbeat Sheila had a reputation as a bit of an ‘Ice Queen’.

"Sometimes when I look at my photos, I don't recognise myself anymore. People used to call me Ice Queen because I looked so intimidating. Now, I can hardly find a pic of me that's not smiling ear to ear (sic),” she writes in her caption.

So what led to the big change? Firstly, yes, the adorable baby Layla plays a part, and secondly… you’ll just have to check out Sheila’s caption for the reason.

The former actress’s youngest son, Algernon, started Primary One on January 4, just like Fann Wong and Christopher Lee’s son, Zed.

Oh, and Joey also managed to close on her dream house. Looks like Joey’s  got a pretty packed 2021 ahead of her. We’re keeping our eyes peeled for the renovation updates.

And wasted no time cosplaying as a character from Japanese manga series, Slam Dunk. Could this be her next Halloween costume?
