The Weeknd performed the third night of his Hong Kong concert series last night, with droves of fans turning out for the show. The VIP boxes also welcomed several celebrity guests, including Hong Kong celebrity couple Tony Leung and Carina Lau. Many had been pleasantly surprised to see a photo of The Weeknd at dinner with the couple in Hong Kong. It’s no wonder they also made time to attend his concert last night. Carina Lau shared photos from the night on social media with the caption, “What an incredible and emotional night! You are truly amazing..”
The Weeknd also surprised fans with a special song titled “Hong Kong,” created exclusively for the city. The song incorporates elements of Faye Wong’s iconic 1993 Cantonese hit “Gwai Hau Fung.” The unexpected mix of The Weeknd’s signature sound with nostalgic Cantopop delighted concertgoers and quickly became a hot topic on social media, inspiring a wave of fan edits. One creation featured The Weeknd’s face superimposed onto Faye Wong’s iconic “sunburn makeup” album cover. The Weeknd spotted the poster in the crowd, playfully poking fun at his new look. He even shared it on his Instagram Stories.
