SONGBIRDS from China are earning big bucks in night clubs in Singapore.
Some of these women earn up to a S$150,000 per night, including tips by customers, Sin Chew Daily reported.
The daily quoted a manager in a club as saying that popular singers could earn millions per year and drive luxury cars that are even "more expensive" than those of their customers.
"There was this gorgeous singer who was a favourite among some customers.
"Two men who came in Ferrari sports cars were interested in her. The customers tried to outbid each other in the tips. That night, she accumulated S$150,000.
"Their bosses will usually take 20% to 30% of the tips for the night but she still managed to take home about S$120,000 that day," he said.
In Singapore, customers paying less than S$500 would be allowed to garland the singers while they perform. Those who pay more can help pin sashes on the singers' body.
The amount of tip is printed on the sash.
"The customers, mostly aged 40 and above, include lawyers, bank officers and businessmen. Students from wealthy families are also among the fans," the club manager said.
