    Jackie Chan becomes first singer to hold concert in "Bird's Nest"

    The Asian Hollywood star is holding his first concert in Beijing National Stadium!

    Since the Beijing Olympic, the National Stadium, or colloquially the "Bird's Nest", has became a tourist attraction and superstars are fighting to be the first to hold a concert there. This honor has now landed on the hands of Jackie Chan.
    The organizer will be spending S$100million just for the venue rental.
    Chan, who recently released an EP in China, is currently engaged in the promotion for movie "Shinjuku Incident". Amidst his schedule, Chan flew to Beijing on Apr 1 to announce the news on a press conference at the stadium.
    Chan, who has always been more of an actor than singer, will be inviting many famous singers to perform on his concert; among them include his son Jaycee, Joey Yung, Charlene Choi and Korean boy band Super Junior.
    The Beijing government is paying serious attention to this concert. The detailed plan of the concert has to be submitted to the authorities for approval and the security for the concert will be tightened. The preparation, currently kept as "highly confidential", is highly regarded as "Jackie Chan's mystery concert".
    The ticket price has not been confirmed but according to sources, the most expensive ticket will cost up to S$400, comparable to foreign singers' concerts in China.
