Need help planning a 3 week trip...

I tried refraining from directly asking this, but I haven't had too much help from the other threads on this board. This is another "Plan my vacation" type threads....

The last time I was in the Philippines 10 years ago, I was there with my family and we stayed only in Tarlac (where my Dad is from). Now, I'm going by myself and I want to explore as much as I can in the three weeks I'm there. I have family I plan to visit in Manila and Tarlac, but that'll only take 3 or 4 days. I'm an open book for the rest of my stay. Whenever I ask my parents for suggestions, they just shower me with "You're going to get kidnapped... They're going to mug/kill you" type stuff. So no help there. And unlike many other tourists, I'm not really interested in sight seeing or adventurous activities (i.e. diving). For the most part, I need to be entertained- a concert, a live show, or even sitting in the audience of a TV show taping. And worse comes to worse- karaoke is fine with me. I'm a big fan of hip-hop dance (and I know it's really popular there) so I definitely want to catch a couple shows. I'm also a fan of wrestling (ie Hulk Hogan, WWE) so I was hoping to catch a wrestling show too. Also, of course, I just want to relax on a nice beach and perhaps stay at a resort (or two) for a few nights. I know I'm all over the place with what I want to do, but that's why I'm here.

Then, I was also thinking of spending a weekend in another nearby major city. I have a cousin who lives in Singapore so perhaps there, but I want a place with good nightlife and budget-friendly accommodations. I have one friend suggesting I go to Bangkok, but portrayal of that place in media intimidates me somewhat (especially b/c I'm alone). But I could just be crazy.... Anyway... HELP! I'm reaching out to my family out there, but they haven't been responding well. HELP HELP HELP.
