I had an interview with another big 4 in Singapore, but the HR department is asking me for my last 3 payslips at my current job in the US as they think about the offer. Can I get in trouble at my current job for providing this? What should I do? Is this normal in Singapore?

You don’t have access to your payslips without asking your HR?
And yes employers can ask you your previous payslips to tailor the offer esp to see you pay range

Rubbish - many developed companies in SG don't do this, if your company is still doing so then HR and TA are stuck in old mindsets

Unfortunately, its a common practice in Singapore but not inclusive at all. You can push back and state that your current company prohibits salary sharing - ask them for the offer before sharing anything anyway.

Sadly local HR practices have a long way to go to offer inclusive pay offers
