MILLI Wraps Asia Tour, Plans ACL Surgery and New Music

Thai rapper MILLI, also known as Milli Danupha, has successfully concluded her first solo 'MILLI JAA EHH! ASIA TOUR 2026' across five countries — Taipei, Japan, Singapore, Malaysia, and Thailand — calling it a resounding success filled with unforgettable moments.

At the launch of her special AAPE x MILLI 'JAAPE EHH!' collection at the AAPE store on the first floor of CentralWorld, the artist expressed her delight at meeting fans across multiple countries and announced plans to move forward with new music and another tour next year. She also opened up about preparing for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction surgery after the injury had troubled her for more than two years, reassuring fans not to worry despite a recovery period of several months, and joking that her crutch might become a stage prop on the next tour.

Asked about the just-wrapped tour, MILLI said: 'Yes, including Thailand, five countries total — Taipei, Japan, Singapore, Malaysia, then back to Thailand to close. The feedback from each country was amazing. I always say I found my people. This was my first solo concert where tickets were sold for a full two-hour set, and my first tour entirely my own. It was exhausting, but the moment I stepped on stage, the fatigue vanished because the crowds were so lovely.'

On whether fan energy differed by country: 'Each country has its own character. Japan was cute and very attentive. Malaysia had incredible energy — I had to bow and ask them to let me rap a bit. I just started "Put your hands..." and they sang the rest for me. The fanbase is diverse in age and gender, but almost everyone sings along to every song, even the Thai lyrics. For "Rak Na Wai," they battled me line for line.'

Closing the tour in Thailand: 'I'm so happy. I knew my parents loved me, but I never imagined this many people would. Thank you so much. Those who missed it, too bad — just kidding. Come next time. For me, this is another life milestone, but only the beginning. I still want to tour many more countries, including returning to those we've already visited.'

Asked about next year's tour plans: 'Yes, it's the "Ja Eh... Tour" — wait for the "and more" to see where else. As an artist we make music, but meeting the fans who listen to us is another thing I want to do. Just two months until next year — hang tight.'

On whether the Asia Tour leads to a World Tour: 'World Tour? (laughs) We're thinking Out of the World Tour, but back to reality a bit. We have fans in many countries and need to deepen that connection. This tour was like gathering our fans into one community. Step by step. (Future we'll see?) Yes, I'll rap until I die — everyone will see it for sure.'

On upcoming projects: 'Now I'm back to making music. During breaks there will definitely be things to follow — tell us what you want to hear.'

On pressure releasing new music: 'There's pressure. Some people still don't know the latest album, the second one titled HEA...'
