My Picture Was Bigger Than The Marsiling Murderer's.

On this drizzly Friday morning (May 26), we’re with the cast of My Friends From Afar,Ch 8’s upcoming sci-fi drama, where Carrie Wong and Aloysius Pang play aliens who travel to Earth to start life anew. And we have an inkling that no one is feeling more in character today than Aloy himself. When he enters the studio, everyone turns to look at him like they’ve just spotted a UFO. He notices us, says hi and bows politely. He looks tired and worn-out, not surprising given the week he’s had. On May 18, the 26-year-old actor was charged in court with drink driving. Aloy, who decided not to renew his contract with Mediacorp in April, was accused of committing the offence along Jalan Ahmad Ibrahim towards Jurong Port Road at around 4.40am on May 8. He allegedly had 55 microgrammes (mcg) of alcohol in 100ml of breath — the prescribed limit is 35 mcg. He’ll be back in court on June 22, and he plans to plead guilty to the charge. If convicted, he can be jailed up to six months or fined between $1,000 and $5,000.

To say that Aloy has been under a lot of pressure the past week would be an understatement, especially in this clickbait-driven, viral news generating era. If an act of charity from a star, like Nicki Minaj helping to pay for her fans’ tuition, gets magnified by the press, what say a misdemeanor?
