Aliff Aziz’s “Dad Called” Moment: 28‑Year‑Old’s Drama Gets a Buzz of Support
The Singaporean pop‑star‑turned‑actor Aliff Aziz found himself under the spotlight—and the police—on a quiet Sunday morning. In a viral clip, the 28‑year‑old was seen shouting to a police officer for his father’s help. The footage quickly sparked a debate among netizens: “Shouldn’t Aliff, who’s already 28, just handle it himself?”
What the Video Showed
- Policemen were patrolling Orchard Road at about 6:40 am when they spotted two men arguing.
- Aliff, with his head lowered, muttered, “You talk to my father… I never resist.”
- The recording surfaces on his mother’s social media, with Aliff’s screen showing both his dad’s face and his sister’s.
Note: The police later confirmed no serious trouble; Aliff was released after a brief detention.
Aliff Stands by His “Dad Call”
In the same clip, Aliff calmly responds to criticism, saying there’s nothing wrong with reaching out to a family member during a crisis—regardless of age. He even points out, “is it weird if he’s 40 or 50?” The message goes out loud for anyone daring to judge the younger star.
Support Over Here
Despite the backlash, the singer‑actor still receives him hearty messages from fans. He smiles at the convenience cookie that “people shoot at me,” mentioning that 2019 was a rough year for him.
He declares, “Hopefully, I will come out of this stronger.” A verdict in court last month found him guilty of theft—he is facing a fine and a possible prison stint.
Aliff’s “4th of May 2019”
Aliff’s trial centers on two theft incidents: one where he allegedly took 1,000,000 rupiah (S$97) and $300 from Indonesian actress Raja Yunika Perdhana Putri during a hotel stay, plus a cigarette packet and lighter from a Starbucks in Plaza Singapura. Meanwhile, he has been in the headlines recently due to his split from Malaysian actress Bella Astillah. The former wife says Aliff has cheated on her several times.
“The Orchid Road Talk”
While joking around at the hawker centre, Aliff nodded as conflicting voices spiraled. He’s reluctant to share details of the incident, fearing more rumors and mind‑games. He said, “I hope there’s a reward for me in the afterlife, not for the good I did, but because many people talk badly behind me.”
According to Aliff, he’s determined to show resilience post‑trial.
Bella’s Stand‑Up for Work and Maternity
In the wake of a divorce that lasted almost three years, Bella Astillah keeps her profile in the limelight. The Malaysian actor says she’s flying to Singapore sometimes to meet her two‑year‑old son, Ayden, and when she has a moment “If there’s time, I’ll bring Ayden with me so he can see his dad.” She gave a brief interview to HLive, teasing that she intends to show off her bright future.
But she’s not shying away from criticism either. When her fans aren’t fond of her “public aggrieve” she pushes back, asking them to “support her and her child if they want her to work.”
Some netizen’s judge Aliff and Bella seem to keep a romantic glue, while he murmurs that some still try to play with her affections.
Final Take‑away
Being under scrutiny from the police and the public isn’t easy for a twenty‑eight‑year‑old celebrity. Aliff’s honest stance on being called a “father” dilemma and his ability to put humor into the situation has earned him a sense of emotional support—and feathers. From a zero to a bright future, Aliff’s story shows that everyone is on a hard path.
