Where: 10 Bayfront Avenue, Singapore, Singapore, 018970

And the East Asia Gaga whirlwind continues! After wrapping things up over the weekend in Taiwan, Lady Gaga has drifted south to Singapore, where fans reportedly lined the lobby hallways of the Marina Bay Sands. The $5.4 billion, three-towered, "culinary epicenter of Asia" hosted Gaga's entire entourage—and a dutiful tweeter by the name of @gagaindonesia was there to witness it all.

Gaga was scheduled to arrive at the hotel last night, and an hour after her first sighting, @gagaindonesia made the hearts of Singapore's Little Monsters flutter by pinpointing her room on the 51st floor of Tower 2. In the meantime, photos of her sound equipment and her backup dancers simply had to suffice.

'Riverdance' Will Be the First Big Show at Singapore's Marina Bay Sands

Have you ever seen the famous Broadway show Riverdance? We know, we know, your mom or grandma was probably allll about it at one point, perhaps watching the PBS specials on "Lord of the Dance" Michael Flatley and maybe even buying one of those Celtic-influenced ambient music CDs from Bed, Bath & Beyond.

The Riverdance fever has died down in the States, but it seems that Singapore is still thirsty for the fancy footwork, as the show will be the first to welcome audiences to the Sands Theater at the Marina Bay Sands Hotel and Entertainment Complex.

The show is due to begin performances on November 30, closing December 12. This isn't the first time Riverdance will stomp through Singapore however, since the traveling show came through ten years ago.

Egads! Does her record company know she's up that high? That brave soul addressing the press in a swimming pool is none other than Rolling Stone cover girl Katy Perry—and that's not just any old pool. It's the largest outdoor swimming pool in the world and the number one on our own list of 10 Death Defying Rooftop Hotel Pools.

Perry is in Singapore (or as The Sun called it, Singa-phwoar) to headline Singfest 2010, and clearly the most presidential of presidential suites at the Marina Bay Sands wasn't good enough for the California Gurl.

Swimming at the Marina Bay Sands in Singapore May Cause Vertigo

Where: 10 Bayfront Avenue, Singapore, Singapore, 018970

The Marina Bay Sands in Singapore has officially opened all of its entire facilities today and honestly, despite this being a massive resort with 963 hotel rooms, a shopping mall, convention center, a ton of restaurants and bars and a massive casino, all we can focus on is this rooftop pool.

Sorry, that's not really the right way to describe this infinity-edge pool that is 55 stories off the ground. This really doesn't even classify as a rooftop pool. This is a skyscraper-top pool.

The thrilling swimming experience is a part of the hotel's Sands SkyPark which is longer than the Eiffel Tower is tall and longer than four and a half jumbo jets. The pool itself spans across the top of the resort's three hotel towers. It is now the world's largest outdoor swimming pool, at that height.
