SINGAPORE - On Monday morning, four cast members from Singapore Social - Netflix's reality television series which Singaporeans seemingly love to hate - stroll into a guest lounge at The Straits Times' offices.

The quartet - Mae Tan, Vinny Sharp, Nicole Ong and Paul Foster - are, mostly, impeccably dressed. Foster, the 38-year-old actor and host, is dressed down in a T-shirt and shorts, his knee in a cast after surgery for a torn ligament from a netball session.
