Salacious soap opera stars Ed Westwick and Leighton Meester of “Gossip Girl” fame were in Bangkok yesterday to promote the grand opening of the new Siam Center to the public.
The American pair arrived at 7:30pm to mark the re-opening of the four-decade-old shopping mall, which had undergone a five-month-long renovation.
Along with the Hollywood superstars, Thai actors and actresses walking the red carpet after Siam Center unlocked its doors for the public at 6:30pm included Araya A. Hargate, Nadech Kugimiya, Urassaya Sperbund, Pakorn Chatborirak and many more.
Behemoth Thai developer Siam Piwat – owner of Siam Center, Siam Paragon, Siam Discovery, and Paradise Park – invested over THB1 billion to redesign the 40,000-square-meter mall’s interiors and exteriors. They hope that the major facelift is able to lure in over 150,000 visitors a day.
