SINGAPORE: Singapore singer Stefanie Sun is back in Singapore from the Egyptian capital of Cairo.

She had been shooting a music video there, when a payment dispute turned ugly.

The local tour guide engaged by her recording company had demanded more money and allegedly threatened them.

Bodyguards were sent to their hotel after the group reported the incident to their headquarters and the Singapore embassy in Cairo.

A tired-looking Stefanie was greeted by beefed-up security at the airport.

Her plane touched down about 6pm Wednesday from Hong Kong.

Sun planned to fly to Taiwan but flew back to Singapore instead.

She said she was very happy to be back in Singapore and thanked everyone for their support. - CNA/yy
