Meet stand-up comic Kumar, Singapore's outrageous comedy queen

"I have one leg in the grave while the other is dancing, and I am trying to relish life as best as possible,’ says Kumar on what it means to turn 50.

Some celebrities are hush-hush about their age. But for stand-up comedian Kumar, he named his latest tour show Kumar Fifty50 to celebrate his turning half-a-century old last August. The multi-faceted performer from Singapore, known for his drag queen image, has spent nearly three decades in the entertainment industry.

When asked what this milestone means to him, Kumar replies candidly: “It means I have one leg in the grave while the other is dan-cing, and I’m trying to relish life as best as possible. It’s a reminder to start ticking off boxes from my bucket list – and I’m making sure to enjoy every moment as it comes.”
