Another netizen mentioned seeing Max at Raffles Place earlier on Friday (31 Oct).

Max was also seen filming near other iconic locations such as Chinatown, Merlion Park, and Joo Chiat.

Residents turned up in droves to catch a glimpse of the host and his iconic ‘ladder’.

During his appearance at Merlion Park, fans even sang the series’ iconic jingle in unison:

Hope you don’t have to hold your bladder, because it’s time for the Career Ladder.

Local brands & celebrities showed support for Max.

Cakeinspiration — a cake shop located in Joo Chiat — even customised a cake for Max.

The cake featured Singapore-themed icons like the Merlion and Supertrees, and even kaya toast on the sides.

It was topped with a decorative ‘ladder’ with the Career Ladder show logo.

Max also invited some prominent figures onto the ladder during his time in Singapore.

These included streamer Supercatkei, who offered durian for Max to try.

The streamer, whose real name is Denise, also had a meal with Max at what appears to be a seafood restaurant.

Grab CEO Anthony Tan was also spotted on the ladder with Max.

Launched in early 2024, the Career Ladder features Max inviting guests to stand on his ladder while he spends two minutes guessing their occupations.
