After all, they’re the previous generation in the Singapore entertainment scene and have entertained us throughout the days and nights when we thought YouTube was the name of a swimming school in Singapore.

Most who have watched them in their prime would be in their thirties to forties now.

And most who love them would probably feel old after seeing a recently uploaded Facebook album of your favourite stars…when they were young.

FB Photo Album of S’pore Celebrities in the 80s & 90s Caused Many People to Feel Old All of a Sudden

Facebook page RTS, SBC, TCS and Mediacorp artistes seem keen on bringing back the good old memories of Singapore’s entertainment scene.

Besides videos that’ll bring back the “good old days”, they also make it a point to upload photos of favourite celebrities when they were young.

Here is a couple that’ll make you feel every year of your age.

Chen Liping

Young people today would probably know her as the lover of Romeo Tan.

But 90s kids? Aiyoyo Teacher.

Yup, if you can sing along to this song:

You’re an auntie or uncle liao.

Li Nanxing

Li Nanxing isn’t an unknown name to young people today. After all, he’s the pseudo best friend of Vicky Zhao.

And he’s the anti-scam ambassador who was used to scam people:

But before she became the mother-in-law of her own husband in a TV drama and a mother in real life, she was the dream girl of every young man in Singapore.

Hall Of Fame

Now, most of the images only show our favourite actors and actresses of yesterday grow old and weary.

But there are a few who looks better the more they age.
