How do you get rid of those Monday blues? By having a good laugh of course! In case you lost track of the date, today is 1st April which also means that it’s April Fools’ Day! So best prepare yourselves for the unexpected.

Regardless if you’ve been pranked by a friend or loved one, it’s always exciting to see how one can get creative into fooling others. Check out our list of every “promotion” and “product” announced by influencers and brands in Malaysia on this prank-ilicious day:

1. Mark O’dea

A post shared by Mark O’dea (ALAMARK!) (@markodea8)

The KL-based British content creator posted a video earlier today to share the “crazy news” that tech billionaire Elon Musk has announced that his company will be launching the first-ever flying car in Malaysia next year. The video showed an AI-generated Elon giving more details about the aircraft that will “soon” hit our shores. Of course, Mark is no stranger to trolling others and he wears the prankster badge proudly.

Remember when he once claimed to have met Justin Bieber?

2. Namewee

Malaysian-born singer Namewee is known for his peculiar sense of humour but the jokes don’t always land and his latest April Fools’ prank was certainly not well received. Full story here.

3. Family Mart

A post shared by FamilyMart Malaysia (@familymartmy)

Simple yet effective: after two of their latest Pokemon-themed Sofuto desserts became a hit, it only makes sense for the popular convenience store chain to introduce another. Sadly, the post seems to have an “error” as it’s taking a long while for the photo to appear. That’s a shame.

4. Daboba Malaysia

Tea brands are always coming up with new flavours and Daboba just announced their brand-new Century Egg Milk Tea! Plus, they’re also giving away 50 cups to customers! Sounds too good to be true? Probably is.

5. Nando’s Malaysia

“Naan” does it better than Nando’s as the text said. The restaurant is inviting customers to try out the “best naan in the world” which will be added to their menu on 31st April so how about reserving your seats?

6. MyBurgerLab Malaysia

View this post on Instagram

A post shared by myBurgerLab Malaysia (@myburgerlab)

Desserts are best served after a meal but who says the dessert can’t be part of the meal? If you love ice cream and if you love My Burger Lab’s famous burgers, then you’re sure to enjoy their new Katy Perry Burger! “It’s almost better than kissing a girl, like fireworks exploding in your mouth. It’s Hot n Cold!” they wrote.

7. Subway Malaysia

Now this is something you’d hope it’s an April Fool’s joke and thankfully it is. Subway Malaysia never fails to shock us with their “unique” new “addition” to their menu. This year, they’re “introducing” the Cili Potong and Sambal Petai cookies that no one is interested in. #Thankyounext.

8. Durex Malaysia

Source: IG/durexmalaysia

If you think Durex only produces condoms and lubes then think again cause the local branch of this global brand is now “offering” energy drinks (come in 3 different flavours; rambutan, dragon fruit and coconut) to help keep your stamina up during sex. Don’t worry, each drink will come with a condom so that’s a 2-in-1 deal for you!

9. Gong Cha Malaysia

Are you obsessed with bubble tea? Do you want to smear it all over your face? Well, now you can with Gong Cha Malaysia’s newest Bubble Tea Skincare! Only available today but try not to sip the serum with a straw.

10. KOI Thé Malaysia

Source: IG/koithemalaysia

Introducing KOI Thé’s latest Magic B.B Bear Milk Tea drinks! Each drink comes with an adorable teddy bear-shaped jelly floating on top! Watch as these flavoured bears melt into your drink, transforming it into a “magical” burst of flavour. Try not to choke on them though.

Surprisingly, there don’t seem to be any durian-related “releases” this year.
