Penny Low Apologizes For Using Mobile Phone During NDP

Channel News Asia reports that member of Parliament (MP) for Pasir Ris-Punggol Group Representation Constituency Penny Low has offered her apologies after being spotted using her mobile phone during the singing of the National Anthem at the National Day Parade (NDP) on Tuesday.

She wrote on her Facebook page, “I was so caught up in the wonderful NDP 2011 and felt so proud of being a Singaporean, that i wanted to capture that moment of pride, at the very tail end of the anthem, to share on FB with my residents. If in my enthusiasm i offended anyone, please accept my apologies. NDP is a time to unite not divide. Majulah Singapura!”

"She gave a bad example for the young generation by doing what she did during NDP," wrote Mr Andrew Andy Lim on Ms Low's Facebook.

George Lopez Jokes While Conan Mourns Cancellation

George Lopez show will end after Thursday's edition TBS announced Wednesday. Cancellation of the show has been discussed for several months as the ratings for Lopez's show continued to go down. The audience booed after Lopez shared the sad news, but chuckles won out after Lopez revealed his plans for the future.

"In case you did not see the news on unemployment, it's at an all-time high. And for Latinos, it just got a little higher," he said.

On another TBS show, Conan O'Brien expressed his sympathy for the cancellation. "If it wasn't for her involvement in me, or her belief in me, I would have had a very different last 10 years," Lopez, 50, told PEOPLE. Sunland Park Mayor Martin Resendiz gained a national TV spotlight Tuesday night, but not in a pleasant way, when he was ridiculed by late-night comedian George Lopez.
