Just want to share my experience flying JFK-SIN on Singapore Airlines last month. My carry-ons were one camera backpack and one carry-on size suitcase, each weighing more than 10kg (kg, not pounds!). At JFK, the person at the counter didn't weigh my carry-ons, but when entering the plane, a flight attendant flagged my suitcase (my backpack wasn't checked), and had it put with the other checked-in luggage, no extra fees though, although I was a little bit worried because my DSLR housing was in the suitcase. Coming back, I actually checked in with Silk Air in Manado onward to JFK. Again my carry-ons weren't weighed, and this time none were flagged, either in Manado or in SIN.
Also for flights to/from the US, most non-US airlines including Singapore Airlines have a piece concept for checked-in luggage, i.e. you are allowed two pieces of luggage, each weighing up to 50lbs.
