Pandora opens first standalone airport store in Manchester

Jewellery specialist Pandora is venturing into the travel retail space with its first standalone airport store located in Terminal 2 of Manchester Airport. The site comes as part of a wider redevelopment in the airport's departure lounge, where six new stores and eateries opened to the public yesterday, July 28. For Pandora, this 'continued development of the airport made this the right time to make our move and start a new chapter in the brand's retail journey', sales director for Pandora UK and Ireland, Ross Monghan, said in a statement. With what Monaghan describes as 'an exceptional space', Pandora is aiming to 'meet every type of traveller – whether they're gifting or self-purchasing – with a wide range of beautifully crafted jewellery'. The store itself will house an extensive range of products, including from the brand's Moments collections, its Lab-Grown Diamonds line, the Gold Pandora Essence collection and its personalisation services. Monaghan added: 'The airport community works incredibly hard, and we're proud to offer them a way to express what matters most through our collections.' Pandora joins the likes of Lego, Rituals, Starbucks, Upper Crust and Joe & The Juice in opening within the rejuvenated part of the terminal, marking the latest milestone in a 1.3 billion pound, 10-year transformation project. According to the airport, more than 70 percent of its passengers will use the new facilities, with further shops, including a location from Chanel, also due to open later this year. In a statement, managing director of the airport, Chris Woodroofe, said: 'We're proud to connect the people of the North with the world, and these new facilities will allow them to travel in the style befitting a major international hub, while also creating a striking first impression for visitors to our region.'

Cut Copy Announce New Album ‘Moments', Share ‘When This Is Over'

Cut Copy have announced a new album, entitled Moments. It marks their seventh overall and first in five years, following their 2020 album Freeze, Melt. The new album is set for release on Friday, September 5th via Cutters Records and The Orchards. To coincide with the album's announcement, the Melbourne-born and UK-based electronica act have shared its second single, 'When This Is Over'. The follow-up to April's 'Solid', which will also appear on Moments, has been described by frontman Dan Whitford as 'one of those songs that instantly felt special' in a press statement. 'The song is about a relationship that has started to unravel,' he said. 'But also, a bit more globally, [it's a song] about trying to find empathy when parties are facing in seemingly opposite directions. Over the course of the song, the mood progresses from conflict to a sort of truce-like resolution.' Whitford also notes that this is the first Cut Copy song to feature a children's choir – something that he and his bandmates had 'talked for years about', but had never realised prior to the recording of this song. 'After writing the first half of the song in my studio on synths and a drum machine, I drove from Melbourne into the country to a primary school where a friend was a music teacher,' he said. '[I] spent a day recording a choir idea that became the basis of the second half of the song. Suddenly with the addition of the children's voices, the song had gone from a sketch into something magical.' To celebrate the release of Moments, the band will play their first home-country shows in over two-and-a-half years this September. They will play a hometown headlining show in Melbourne, as well as dates for both Sydney's Night At The Barracks concert series as well as its freshly-minted sister series Night At The Parkland in Brisbane. The band's current schedule can be found below. Moments can be pre-ordered and pre-saved by clicking here.

Star Awards 2025's oldest nominees Chen Shucheng, Lin Ruping, Hugo Ng on staying humble, leaving winning to fate, Entertainment News

Veteran local actors Chen Shucheng, Lin Ruping and Hugo Ng have accompanied audiences throughout the decades, from variety show hosts to acting as the main leads and then as parents and grandparents. As Star Awards' 30th anniversary event approaches, AsiaOne spoke to them about their nominations in this year's ceremony and having a new generation of actors in local showbiz. Chen Shucheng happier to see young actors getting recognition While Shucheng is delighted about his Best Supporting Actor nomination for his performance in crime drama Unforgivable (2024) this year, he is happier to see younger actors being nominated in Star Awards. The 75-year-old, who debuted in local showbiz in 1971 and is the oldest nominee this year, told AsiaOne recently: "I personally feel that at my age, I am already a veteran actor in this industry. I believe that for veteran actors like us, who have honed our acting skills over the years... if we are able to get a good role, as long as we perform well, the probability of winning is high. "But at my age, in my perspective, when I see many of my young actor colleagues [attending and being nominated] in Star Awards' 30th anniversary event, I feel that there is succession in local showbiz and that there are results after Mediacorp's nurturing over the years. I am actually happier to see that." He added he was glad to see many young actors performing well in leading roles. [[nid:715076]] When asked about his chances of clinching Best Supporting Actor, Shucheng said: "I think the chances are not high because the other four nominees are leading actors. But at the same time, I shouldn't underestimate myself, because since the judges nominated me, it's also a form of recognition." The other nominees for the category are Chen Hanwei (Unforgivable), Guo Liang (To Be Loved), Pierre Png (Moments) and Xu Bin (Kill Sera Sera). Shucheng, who is also nominated for Top 10 Most Popular Male Artiste, shared his perspective on staying humble in the industry. He said: "I feel that especially for young actors, they should focus more on performing well. To be honest, there are many times, besides their own hard work, when it is also about receiving a good role. If they are able to achieve that and act well at the same time, then they would be able to stand out and it's a form of recognition. "They may not be able to receive a good role every time, so they should treasure it (when they do). As young actors, they should also continue to hone their acting skills humbly because the road is still long for them and it's not going to be continuously smooth. They should continue to be down-to-earth and strive to perform their roles well. That's most important." Lin Ruping wants to continue acting and hosting regardless of awards Ruping, who is nominated for Top 10 Most Popular Female Artiste in this year's awards, shared that she is happy to be nominated, but treats it with a sense of normalcy. The 74-year-old debuted in local showbiz in 1983 and is the oldest female nominee this year. "Being nominated is already a form of recognition, that Mediacorp saw my hard work and gave me this opportunity. But of course, there are many nominees — even more than last year — so I don't have high hopes of winning and such things cannot be guaranteed," she said. Ruping was first nominated in the category in 2024, but didn't win. When asked how she felt then, she shared: "I didn't feel anything, I treated it with a sense of normalcy and it's okay if I didn't win. It's always like this: The more expectations you have, the more disappointed you will be in the end, so I just keep a normal mindset. While she acknowledged that receiving an award does open up more opportunities for an actor, she is thankful to be sought by directors — some of whom she had known for decades — who found her suitable for their roles. "I am grateful that after so many years, since the 1980s, Mediacorp still gives me one or two acting roles every year," she said. When asked what hopes she has for her acting career in the future, Ruping shared: "I think at my age, I want to be at peace with whatever happens. If there are opportunities for me, I will do it. If my health allows me to be active and I have time, I will continue to be active in showbiz, because if I am not working and just sit around all day, I will get dementia quickly. Health is most important, if you don't have that, you can't do anything." Hugo Ng leaves winning to fate Hugo, who made his return to local television in 2023 after close to three decades abroad, shared that he is thankful to be nominated for Top 10 Most Popular Male Artiste. The 65-year-old, who debuted in local showbiz in 1982 before furthering his acting career with Hong Kong broadcaster TVB in 1987, told AsiaOne: "I started my acting career in the 1985 Singapore drama Ren Zai Lu Tu (translated as People on a Journey) and in my twilight years returned to act in an important role in All That Glitters (2023). "I even received a nomination for a popularity award; it's more than I can ask for and very fulfilling for me.... To me, not fighting for something is perhaps a good thing." [embed] We asked whether he views nominations and awards as a form of recognition at this point, and he said: "In every job, to every actor, they would be encouraged and happy when they received praise from everyone. "But as to whether I hope to receive the award, I leave it to fate and I prefer to be free and easy and not fight over it. As long as I do my job well, that's enough." Hugo also shared the importance of young actors showing sincerity in their craft. He explained: "After many years as an actor, my conclusion is that if you want people to approach you [for roles], there is only one way and that is to do your best to play your role well, let them see your sincerity and they would naturally approach you. "This is so that you are able to convince the directors and screenwriters to work with you again." Voting for Star Awards Top 10 Most Popular Male and Female Artistes is now available to July 6, 7.30pm on the Mediacorp website. Voters can make up to 10 votes per account, per award category, per day. On July 6 from 12am to 7.30pm, voters can make unlimited votes for each category.
