Very SUAY!

Any one that gets near SGP casinos & IRs got very bad lucks. Consistently and no escape.

From bad to worst! The previous time he could still sing 2 songs and then bye bye. Now? ZERO!

Tom Jones scraps show

WELSH singing icon Tom Jones has cancelled his show at Resorts World Sentosa (RWS) - again.

The 69-year-old singer's doctor has advised him against carrying on with the show on Thursday night as he 'could risk serious permanent damage to his vocals'.

Jones stopped his show after two songs there last Friday and has been diagnosed with acute laryngitis. He has been recuperating in Singapore since then. Thursday's performance was supposed to be his make-up show.

In a statement on Thursday, RWS said Thursday's concert had been called off due to Jones' being 'genuinely ill'.

'He stayed behind in Singapore with the full intention to perform for his fans. He was advised by his doctor only today against risking permanent loss of his vocals by staging the performance. We again apologise to our guests,' said Andrea Teo, RWS vice president of entertainment.

RWS assured patrons that full ticket refunds would be made. The management also apologised for disappointing Singapore fans and said it would try to reschedule the performances in the near future. Separately, Jones' management team also released a statement, saying that Jones' doctor had forced the star to cancel the concert.

'Sir Tom has been resting his voice all week in Singapore, with regular checkups with local specialists. Unfortunately, the doctors are nevertheless unable to guarantee that Sir Tom would be able to perform the full show tonight at 100 per cent vocal strength. In addition, they have warned that by performing, Sir Tom could risk serious permanent damage to his vocals.'

Meanwhile, an irate Indonesian concert-goer - one of 4,000 disappointed by Jones' walkout last Friday - has issued a letter demanding compensation from the singer and RWS, reported mypaper.

Mr Hotman Paris Hutapea, 50, a litigation lawyer and founder of law firm Hotman Paris and Partners in Jakarta, said his firm is preparing to file a civil suit against RWS, its agent in Indonesia and the singer.

He is also seeking compensation for his and his friend's expenses on flight, accommodation and transportation, and punitive damages of US$2 million.

He and his friend each bought a $368 concert ticket. He paid $540 for flights for both of them, and stayed two nights at the Mandarin Orchard Singapore. He told mypaper he was filing a civil suit because he wanted to teach the singer and the concert organisers 'a lesson'.

As a lawyer he should know that there is NO case here as Tom Jones and RWS have done nothing wrong because the contract is discharged by "frustration".

Goodness, no wounder so many immigrant lawyers from the 3rd world countries ended up as taxi drivers in Canada and USA.

If not work or get any money from RWS.
But 100% sure RWS will get bad news. Next time no one will buy any concert ticket.
But I sure the RWS willing to pay maybe up to $20k to settle out of court. Is a small money to save the ass.

bad things do happen even in the best of situations.
nothing to do with the curse of blakang mati lah.

let us face the fact. tom is getting old. so his voice cord is also old after so many decades or providing entertainment to the world.

time to retire - gracefully.no need to curse him or curse rws.
