At Jam Hsiao’s concert at the Singapore Indoor Stadium on Oct 25, the Taiwanese singer-actor is going to let it rip. Just in his performance, not his trousers.

Although the latter did happen accidentally during a Sept 5 show at the Taipei Dome in Taiwan, when the 38-year-old’s pants split open onstage, revealing his red underwear.

While Hsiao was performing the song Princess (2009), a hole could be seen at his crotch area. He noticed the wardrobe malfunction only towards the end of the performance. But he did not hide it, announcing to the crowd: “My pants have broken.”

Despite the faux pas, he did not pause the gig.

Instead, he sang through the first verse of the next song, A Love Song For You (2018), before removing the red jacket he was wearing and tying it around his waist to hide the tear. He proceeded to power through another eight numbers without a wardrobe change.

In an e-mail interview with The Straits Times, the Mandopop star shared that it is quite common for his clothes to rip during performances.

He said: “It is just that my red underwear was more eye-catching this time. – The Straits Times/Asia News Network
