Transfail

Wednesday, June 24th, 2009

Last night’s sneak preview of Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen at GV Marina was packed with excited cinema-goers.

Lady Gaga stormed into Singapore last weekend and blew us away with a 5-song showcase (well, not me la, but some of my colleagues).

Heck, we’ve even got this week’s The Gaga Issue dedicated to her!
