Kapanlagi.com - Kapanlagi will always be here as long as celebrities come with their stories.
Yes, throughout 2025, Indonesian showbiz recorded many significant moments that captured attention. For instance, in film, the animation JUMBO became a box office phenomenon with the highest audience turnout in 2025 and even of all time. A breath of fresh air for domestic animation to compete for audience appeal.
There was also PANGKU by Reza Rahadian, which succeeded at international festivals such as the Busan International Film Festival and brought home prestigious awards at the 2025 Indonesian Film Festival.
In the realm of celebrities, Indonesian stars have also become more active and have drawn attention on the global stage. The stars appeared at world festivals such as Cannes and BIFF, including the viral moment when the PANGKU team took a photo with Lisa BLACKPINK in Busan or Syahrini's appearance at Cannes that became trending and controversial.
Even celebrities like Kris Dayanti surprisingly won a silver medal at the world wushu championship.
What cannot be ignored is, of course, the news of celebrity divorces that filled entertainment news throughout 2025. It cannot be denied that these stories are sought after and followed by readers.
Despite the noise and dynamism of news from the entertainment world, we believe some celebrities deserve more spotlight for their achievements and the stories they present. Here is the complete list of Newsmaker of the Year according to Kapanlagicom.
Raisa once again demonstrated her consistency and quality as one of Indonesia's best soloists with the release of her fifth album titled ambiVert in 2025. In the same year, Raisa also presented two important collaborations: 'Tetap Bukan Kamu' with Rony Parulian and 'Rainbow' with Christian Bautista.
However, the brilliant career journey of the 35-year-old singer coincided with personal life issues. Raisa officially divorced Hamish Daud after eight years together. The divorce decree read by the South Jakarta Religious Court on December 15, 2025, granted Raisa's petition by default. Despite the separation, both agreed to implement a co-parenting system for their daughter, Zalina, and emphasized that there were no issues of a third party or claims for joint property in this process.
Amidst these personal news, Raisa continued to show professionalism as a musician. She won the Best Female Pop Solo Artist award at the 2025 AMI Awards for her song 'Terserah'. Not only that, Raisa also captured public attention through her role as a judge on Indonesian Idol season 14. Raisa's appearance and charisma in the judge's seat reaffirmed her position as one of the icons of Indonesian pop music.
Lee Chae Min & Yoona Girls Generation in the drama BON APPETIT
Lee Chae Min truly marked 2025 as a significant year in his career through the drama Bon Appetit, Your Majesty, which successfully captured public attention. Through his role, he delivered a convincing performance with lively acting and emotions conveyed neatly. Throughout the airing of this drama, Lee Chae Min's name was consistently discussed, both on social media and in reviews by drama critics, indicating a strong and relevant audience response. Considering the development of his acting, audience reception, and the career momentum built throughout 2025, Lee Chae Min deserves the title of Korean Newsmaker, not only because of the spotlight on his popularity but also due to his acting quality that shows real and sustainable improvement.
Yoona of Girls Generation reaffirmed her position as the most popular figure in 2025, partly through her involvement in the drama Bon Appétit, Your Majesty, which became one of the most talked-about shows this year. The drama not only expanded its audience reach but also showcased Yoona's increasingly mature acting side. Throughout the airing of Bon Appétit, Yoona's name consistently dominated media and social media conversations, reinforcing her still very strong appeal. With a combination of acting quality, high visibility, and maintained reputation consistency, Yoona deserves to be called the Korean Newsmaker in 2025, a popularity built through her work and public trust, not just a fleeting moment.

Lesti Kejora once again proves her dominance in the Indonesian dangdut industry throughout 2025. Through the Indonesian Dangdut Awards (IDA) 2025, Lesti successfully swept several prestigious awards, including Most Popular Female Solo Dangdut Singer, Most Popular Dangdut Song, and Most Popular Dangdut Music Video for her hit, Dilema. Not stopping there, this Sundanese singer also caught attention after it was announced that she would duet with Malaysian diva, Siti Nurhaliza, in a new song titled Kumbang Bunga, a collaboration that many fans have been eagerly awaiting.
Meanwhile, Ayu Ting Ting also deserves the spotlight for showcasing her existence through a grand concert titled Konser Dangdut Dangdutan, which also celebrates her 15-year career journey in the Indonesian dangdut music scene. This concert featured a variety of spectacular surprises, including the appearance of living legend Rhoma Irama who performed several iconic songs. A no less special moment occurred when Ayu performed a duet with comedian and musician, Andre Taulany, which made the concert atmosphere even more festive.
With the significant achievements of Lesti Kejora and the spectacular breakthrough of Ayu Ting Ting throughout 2025, both have further proven themselves as the brightest dangdut singers of their generation. Lesti demonstrates her musical strength and consistency through awards and international collaborations, while Ayu proves her capacity as a complete package entertainer through her grand career celebration concert. The year 2025 thus becomes a stage that proves Lesti and Ayu's positions as modern dangdut icons who continue to influence the entertainment industry.
Poster for the movie WIFE FROM THE FUTURE
There are many Indonesian films that have achieved remarkable success in 2025. There is PANGKU, which marks the sweet directorial debut of Reza Rahadian. This film, which tells the story of people from the Northern Coast, won numerous awards at the Busan International Film Festival and also took home the Citra Award at FFI 2025 for Best Film.
Most recently, there is the film AGAK LAEN MENYALA PANTIKU, which has surpassed 10 million viewers, exceeding the success of its first film. The combination of comedy, drama, and detective stories from the quartet Indra Jegel, Boris Bokir, Bene Dion, and Oki Rengga continues to be a magnet for domestic audiences.
However, for the Movie Newsmaker 2025, we have chosen the duo SORE ISTRI DARI MASA DEPAN and JUMBO as the winners. Apart from their remarkable achievements in ticket sales and awards, both SORE and JUMBO push the creative boundaries of a film to be produced in the domestic market. JUMBO has successfully broken the notion that animated films are limited to a children's audience. In the hands of Ryan Adriandhy, the story of JUMBO can appeal not only to children but also to adults. In terms of animation quality, JUMBO certainly raises the benchmark for Indonesian animated films. This is different from
SORE, which boldly mixes romance with a sci-fi fantasy theme that is still rarely produced in Indonesia. Yandy Laurens and his team packaged SORE with all the complexities of its storyline into a narrative that is not only engaging but also leaves an impression on every viewer who exits the cinema.

Harleya Princy may be better known as the child of artist Ferry Maryadi. However, her debut as Cinta in RANGGA & CINTA immediately skyrocketed Leya as a promising newcomer actress.
Her successful debut is also due to her ability to create a persona as the iconic character, Cinta. She broke free from the shadow of Dian Sastro and created her own version of Cinta.
Not to mention her off-screen chemistry with El Putra, which still has its own fandom on social media.
Gempi Nora Marten is experiencing a very proud year in 2025, especially after winning the Best Child Solo Artist award at the AMI Awards 2025 with the song Ajaib. This victory became one of the proudest moments for her parents, Gisel and Gading Marten, who witnessed how Gempi's musical talent has been developing.
Behind her achievements, Gempi has indeed shown a strong interest in the music world for a long time. She regularly practices vocals and often sings with her parents, eventually gaining the confidence to perform on big stages. Her success at the AMI Awards is also thanks to the support of Yura Yunita and Donne Maula, who helped build Gempi's confidence as a young singer.
This achievement has made Gisel and Gading even more certain that Gempi has a bright future in music. In fact, Gisel has already prepared plans to collaborate with Gempi on her new music project in 2026, including the possibility of releasing singles and a duet album.
Ferry Irwandi has emerged as one of the public figures who vocally highlights and critiques government policies. However, he is also not hesitant to give appreciation if the policies he discusses have positive value.
His name rose to prominence especially after he actively voiced the people's concerns during the recent DPR (People's Consultative Assembly) demonstration. Both through video uploads and actions in public spaces, he continues to strive for this.
His firm critical stance, including direct challenges to several legislative members, makes him seen not just as an entertainment content creator, but also as a public figure who actively voices the aspirations and objections of the public regarding political decisions.
Ferry Irwandi is an example of a modern content creator who combines a formal education background, brief bureaucratic experience, and digital narrative skills, then uses that platform to express clear political and social opinions.
Adam Suseno, husband of Inul Daratista, is increasingly rising in popularity as a commercial star and icon in 2025 due to his involvement as the face of Grab's advertising campaign. In the advertisement, Grab leverages Adam's thick mustache and its longevity, which has become his trademark, as the main visual element with taglines like "Mr. Adam's Mustache Lasts, Grab's Prices Last Every Day", successfully capturing public attention and enhancing Grab's brand recall through a humorous and memorable association.
The collaboration between Ji Chang Wook and Samsung through ABRACADABRA: The Galaxy of Ultimate Healing became one of the most talked-about moments in 2025, especially during its filming process that traveled across Indonesia. Ji Chang Wook's presence at various locations such as Yogyakarta, Bali, and Sumba, as well as other destinations rich in nature and culture, was met with enthusiasm from fans, creating organic excitement both on the ground and on social media.
