VIET ACCÉNT

Last week's " Guess Who ? " was singer Toc Tien . Can you guess this week's male singer? HINT: His dad is singer Đình Huấn.

I wasn't expecting much from the new Asia DVD. While watching I was unease because of the strong anti-communist and anti-China attitude and mood. I cannot say for all of Anh Bang 's music, but the ones used in this particular DVD were depressing. His music is quite "political" inspired. I feel bad for Asia's singers having to sing these songs. The theme alone is not for every singer yet alone getting into into the mood of it. Also singers who participated in this Asia video as well as other anti-communist videos from Asia might experience difficulty going to Vietnam. For all I know, they might be rejected and or arrested at the scene. Asia's Entertainment to me is like a cult in the way they make their videos and use music as propaganda. Golden Asia DVD didn't have a live audience but rather a selected few of maybe 100 people or less from family members, friends, sponsors, and etc. The stage was small and had one background design that changed colors ac

I don't care for these kinds of advertisements, but what caught my attention was their article "Keep Age a Mystery." You can read it here . I am more interested in the photos that they posted comparing the appearance of two people, one younger and the other older supposedly trying to get to see that the older person doesn't look that old because they use "Nu Skin" and thus was able to hide their aging. Anyway check it out and tell me what you think. Do you or anyone you know use the product? 1. Amy 50 & Gabriel 18 2. Su Yin 33 & Ah Mooi 61 3. Slyvia 48 & Shu Xian 21 4. Tania 43 & Tatiana 18 5.

Interestingly around the time where the public eyes are on Prince William and Kate Middleton 's wedding, South Florida discovered its own Vietnamese princess, Thi Nga a descendant of Imperial Majesty Emperor Gia Long. She was born in Saigon, but raised in France after her family was forced into exile. Thus she relates to the Cuban community in South Florida because they share a similar circumstance. Princess Thi Nga shared her story with WPBF 25 News and as well has her family's private Jade collection in an exhibit that will soon tour many countries. "After living in Europe and New York for many years, Thi-Nga decided to make South Florida her new home and even received the key to Miami Beach for her philanthropic work."

Singer Lam Truong opened up in a recent interview about his divorce to Y An in October of last year where everything was finalized on court paper. The singer did not provide details on the reasons for the divorce, but was speaking in general about the matter. He explained that there were many reasons for the split like time, work, and not understanding one another. "When two people decide to call it quits, you cannot say who is to blame, right or wrong, good or bad cannot be assessed within one or two days. Whatever decision you make, you have to take responsibility and have no regrets." The singer was very careful in not putting any blame on Y An or himself, and keeping their decisions private. Lam Truong explained that he and Y An can still talk with one another even though they are no longer living together. "No matter what happens, I will never consider the other person as a stranger or enemy. That is the least a man can do." Although the singer was divo

Emcee turned singer Huyen Ny married? According the leaked photos below, the MC/singer wedded on June 2nd, 2005 to husband Hai Van. Nothing on her website , Facebook , or Myspace page suggest a marital status. Did the two divorced or are they still together? The photos look like they were screen cap from a video, could be their wedding video. I'm hoping that some Vietnamese media source would contact the MC/singer and conduct an interview about this. This is such great mystery. Source . (Left) Huyen Ny's mother, Huyen Ny, and husband

Ngo Thanh Van met up with Jack Black and Angelina Jolie during a press release conference for Kung Fu Panda 2 in Glendale, California. " When I received an invitation from MegaStar and DreamWorks Animation, I did not hesitate and accept immediately. I was glad to know that I will have the opportunity to meet and talk directly with Jack Black, and especially with Angelina Jolie someone whom I always admired." Upon meeting the two Hollywood celebrities, Ngo Thanh Van felt extremely nervous and was trembling. Ngo Thanh Van flew over to the U.S. since April 14 to prepare for the event. She bought along many gifts such as a t-shirt with the Vietnamese's flag printed-on and a traditional conical Vietnamese hat as a gift to Jack Black that reads "To Jack Black with love from Vietnam." The Vietnamese actress met up with with funny actor Jack Black who during their first meeting would often laugh to dispel the tension and shyness. The funny actor also commend
