Singapore Grand Prix 2012: Katy Perry and a 1980s revival

When it comes to musical acts, Singapore’s Grand Prix never fails to disappoint, with organizers seemingly fighting to best themselves every year by bringing in some of the world's biggest names. 

Though the final lineup hasn't yet been announced, we do know this year's event -- running from September 21 to 23 -- will be headlined by chart toppers Katy Perry, Maroon 5 and Jay Chou. All three are set to perform at the Padang main stage over the race weekend.  

But it’s the 1980s revival that will likely get some fans excited, with the recent addition of Bananarama, The Pretenders and The Proclaimers to the entertainment mix.

According to organizers, Bananarama will perform at the Esplanade Outdoor Theatre in Zone 4 on Saturday, and the Village stage in Zone 1 on Sunday. The English pop duo is most famous for hits like "Venus," "I Heard A Rumor," and "Cruel Summer." 

The Pretenders, led by rock goddess Chrissie Hynde, will hit the village stage in Zone 1 on Saturday, and the Esplanade Outdoor Theatre in Zone 4 on Sunday. Expect to hear all those classics even non-fans will recognize, like "I'll Stand By You" and "Don't Get Me Wrong."
