Popular Post webfact Posted October 29, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 29, 2021 Thailand’s Tourism and Sports Minister Phiphat Ratchakitprakarn admitted today (Friday) that he had jumped the gun with his recent announcement that K-Pop rap idol Lalisa “Lisa” Manoban of South Korea’s group Blackpink would be performing at the New Year countdown event in Phuket. He said that he should not have told the Thai media about the superstar’s possible appearance in Thailand while a deal was yet to be concluded. Lisa’s management agency, South Korea’s YG Entertainment, issued a statement saying the popular singer will not be available for the countdown event and hopes this will not cause confusion in Thailand. Phiphat said he had learned a lesson from his premature revelation to the media and, when asked whether Italian opera singer Andrea Bocelli will still be attending the New Year countdown at Bangkok’s Sanam Luang, the minister declined to answer.

RafPinto Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 They were hoping that Trillions were booking their holidays to Thailand to see that young woman but nobody booked. Safer to cancel her appearance before it is too late. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post djayz Posted October 29, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 29, 2021 I'm available and open to similar offers. I have the whole package: good looks, I can sing, dance and skip (all at the same time if that'll help to cheer up the down trodden). In addition to this, I'm not greedy and am willing to accept 100 mil. and split the other 100 mil. with the decision maker(s). Shall I pencil that gig in my calendar? 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
