SINGAPORE: Korean superstar Psy, US rock band Aerosmith and US singer CeeLo Green, as well as girl group Blush, will perform in Singapore during the inaugural Social Star Awards, which will be held at Marina Bay Sands on May 23.

Described by organisers as “the ‘Oscars’ of social media”, the Social Star Awards recognises the biggest stars on social media.

It is based on data from Starcount, a web application which aggregates and charts the popularity of various personalities and brands on social media, by looking at the social media activity of 1.7 billion people, across 11 major social media networks around the world.

The Singapore Social Concerts will also be held in conjunction with the Social Star Awards, and will take place from May 24-25 at the Gardens by the Bay.

Psy, CeeLo Green and Blush will perform once more on May 24, while Aerosmith will play on May 25.

Both the Social Star Awards and the Singapore Social Concerts will be streamed live on video sharing site YouTube.
