WHEN NAME DROPPING CAN UNDERMINE YOUR CREDIBILITY…

Extravagant or not? Singapore blogger’s S$40,000 birthday bash sparks online debate

 

A Singapore blogger has come under fire for her upcoming birthday bash costing upwards of $40,000 – none of which she is paying for.

Sara Shantelle Lim was quoted in a press release stating that she will celebrating her 27th birthday on Friday this week with “the biggest ‘Candylicious Neon’ themed party in Singapore” and has received over $40,000-in-kind sponsorships for the private bash.

Singapore blogger Sara Shantelle Lim will be celebrating her 27th birthday with a lavish sponsored bash, costing …

Lim blogs at The SG Sisters, a blog she started with her elder sister, Lora Christelle Lim. The blog claims to be “the first and only Luxury Blog in Singapore.”

Singapore tabloid The New Paper, first reported that Lim has a bevy of alcohol and beer sponsors including Jim Beam, Auchentoshan, Pinnacle Vodka, Courvoisier, and Brewerkz.

Among other things, flowers, candy buffet, and a three-tier birthday cake for the party will all be sponsored. Three diamond rings have also been sponsored, to been given away to the “Best Dressed” partygoers.

The party will be held at exclusive night spot, Club Altimate at 1-Altitude, where the venue rental is said to cost $20,000 for the night.

News of the blogger’s lavish celebration has sparked online debate, with some calling it an “obscene amount of extravagance”.

Facebook user Greg Tan commented, “40k is some people’s annual pay…but others can just spend it in 1 night.”

Another user, Eleanor Quek, wrote, “What a waste of money on one big party. I know I will not be supporting those brands anymore. Bad advertising decision.”

Others have commended Lim’s shrewdness in having a sponsored birthday party. Facebook user Johnny Laxman said, “don’t have to feel sore and condemn her for it. At least she’s smart enough to get others to sponsor her instead of using her own money”.

Sponsorship is not a new concept to bloggers in Singapore.

Omg! I’m on The New Paper, FRONT PAGE!! 🙂
On 30 May 2014.
Thank you Reporter Jocelyn Lee for putting me on front page.
Good Media? Bad Media? Is “SHAMELESS” the only word to use on all your reports?
This is an example of how some reporters “catches” reader’s attention to sell their name and good/bad reputation as Singapore’s professional journalism on our national papers. Well, I guess this is the only way to make the papers – JUICY enough for people to buy and read. Please buy their newspapers, they are obviously, desperate to sell it, by basically, putting the word “Shameless” on all their front page articles. On 29 May 2014, an article also on the front page, shows a “shameless starlet” was slammed for public of display of intimacy with Oxide Pang, also written by Jocelyn Lee – jocelee@sph.com.sg Today, 30 May 2014, apparently, I’m also “shameless and a show off”.
