Local Man Becomes Hollywood’s Most Successful Human Wallpaper

Eugene Lin is living proof that if you stand still long enough in London, someone will eventually pay you to do it in a powdered wig.

With over 60 appearances as an extra, Lin has mastered the art of being the blurry shape behind a white person’s left ear that every Singaporean mother claims is her neighbor’s cousin.

Lim Peh is so talented at standing perfectly still that the Bridgerton producers have reportedly saved his contact in their phones as 'Furniture (High-End)'.

Being a royal footman 19 times isn’t an acting career; it’s a very specific, high-budget valet fetish that requires zero talking and maximum sweating.

After seven years of rigorous silence, Lin finally landed a speaking role as a security guard, where he presumably gets to shout “Oi!” before being immediately murdered by a Caucasian lead.

“It’s all about representation,” Lin said, referring to the fact that he represents the billions of people used as human scenery to make Ariana Grande look more ethereal.

Local fans are absolutely vibrating with pride, with some claiming they successfully identified 14% of his earlobe in the background of The Batman.

“Wahlau, he really made it sia,” said one Singaporean who spent three hours frame-stepping through Wicked just to see if that pixelated blob was indeed a fellow countryman.

Kan ni na, if being a professional background prop counts as a Hollywood career, then every plant in the Changi Airport Jewel is a fucking A-list celebrity.

Lin’s success has inspired thousands of other Sinkies to fly to the UK and stand near famous people until they are legally considered actors or a public nuisance.

At this rate, by the year 2055, a Singaporean might even get to finish a whole sentence before the credits start rolling.

This satire is based on a real news story.
