SINGAPOREAN singer JJ Lin made no attempt to hide his relationship with his new girlfriend, who is 21 years his junior, after the two were spotted attending the FIFA World Cup final last weekend, reported China Press.
The 45-year-old superstar was spotted walking arm-in-arm with girlfriend Annalisa into MetLife Stadium in New Jersey.
During the match, they sat next to each other in the stands, frequently leaning in to whisper to one another and smiling throughout the whole match.
Their seats had an excellent view of the pitch, with Internet users pointing out that the official price for two tickets in that section cost US$13,460 (RM55,037).
Netizens commented that the ticket price was insignificant for someone as wealthy as Lin.
Others continued to point out the age difference between the couple.
