Inside Cantopop star Race Wong’s lavish Singapore home: one half of duo 2R now lives in a US$12.7 million house with its own cinema and grand piano, while older sis Rosanne still lives in Hong Kong
- Former Cantopop duo 2R members Rosanne and Race Wong recently appeared on TVB’s Star Talk after a long hiatus from showbiz, with the latter giving an exclusive tour of her US$12.7 million house
- The sisters came from Singapore to Hong Kong to kick-start their singing careers in the late 90s but retired from the industry in 2011, finding success in their family and work lives post-fame
Celebrities come and go in the cutthroat world of showbiz, with only a select few making it to the top and staying there.
But when a beloved celeb makes a comeback, it almost always sends fans into a frenzy. One such example is Cantopop duo 2R. Made up of sisters Rosanne and Race Wong, the girls came from Singapore to Hong Kong to kick-start their careers in the city’s music industry. Active from 2001 to 2007, the group didn’t officially retire until 2011.
In an unexpected move this May, they re-emerged into the spotlight by starring on TVB’s Star Talk to discuss their lives since leaving the industry.
And it didn’t stop there. Race, now 40, delighted fans by appearing again on the show to give an exclusive tour of her three-storey house in Singapore. The not-so-humble abode reportedly has a US$12.7 million price tag, according to AsiaOne.
Let’s see what the younger Wong has been up to of late, and take a closer look at her lavish Singapore home:
Race Wong’s opulent home
In the show, Wong starts her house tour from the basement, which her businessman husband David Loh refers to as the “man cave”, featuring a home theatre set-up complete with plush leather seats adorned with stuffed toys and a projection screen.
Equipped with a foosball, air hockey and pool table, the space is ideal for entertaining, and Loh says he often invites friends over for happy hours.
The show then reveals the couple’s gym room, where Loh works out everyday. Wong, meanwhile, not so much. “I must confess, I’m quite lazy and rarely use the gym myself,” she says in the clip.
