Khong Tu Quynh


Khong Tu Quynh (1991-    ) is a V-Pop singer, actress of Vietnamese television and film and former teen model.

Born on November 22, 1991 in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, Khong Tu Quynh had first gained prominence as a teen fashion model appearing on the covers of numerous teen magazines and television commercials in Vietnam.  She began her career as a professional singer in 2009 when she signed with NewGen Entertainment, one of Vietnam's most prominent talent management firms that specializes in promoting talent aimed at the young adult demographics in the country.  That same year, the management team at NewGen Entertainment helped arrange for Khong Tu Quynh to make one of her first major live concert performances in Ho Chi Minh City in front of an audience with more than 5,000 members where she performed what would become known as her signature song, Tiem Banh Dau Tay, which would also earn her the nickname as Co Dau Tay given by her fan base.

At the time of signing with NewGen Entertainment, the management company's top performer had been singer Dong Nhi who had enjoyed great success with such V-Pop mega-hit songs such as Chang Baby Milo and Du Quay Tinh Yeu.  However, the executives at NewGen Entertainment felt that Dong Nhi's image as a sex symbol was a bit too too racy for the young adult/teenager demographics and had wanted to promote artists with more wholesome images.  Khong Tu Quynh's girl-next-door persona was exactly what they had been looking for.

In 2009, Khong Tu Quynh released her first solo studio album, Dau Tay's Story, while being managed by NewGen Entertainment.  Immediately, she scored major hit singles with songs such as Nho Lam (I Miss You So) and Lanh (Cold).  Her other solo studio albums include Try to Up (2009), Mai Mai Ben Anh (Forever Yours) (2012) and The G-Invasion (2013).

Khong Tu Quynh has also found success as an actress.  In 2010, she made her film debut in Cong Chua va Ngu Ho Tuong, a comedy/musical with an all-star cast that included fellow V-Pop singers Bao Thy, Yen Trang and Dong Nhi along with comedic actors, Hoai Linh and Chi Tai, and veteran cai luong performers, Bao Quoc and the late Kim Ngoc.  Her other acting credits include the television mini-series, Mau Cua Tinh Yeu (The Color of Love) (2010) costarring Le Khanh, Thu Hien, Luong Bich Huu and Minh Thuan and the film, Thien Su 99 (2011) costarring Huynh Anh and Ngo Kien Huy.  In 2015, Khong Tu Quynh was a featured celebrity competitor on the popular television show, Cung Nhau Toa Sang, hosted by emcee Ha Viet Trinh.  In the television show, she was teamed up with actor Duy Khanh and singer Dai Nhan to compete against other teams of Vietnamese celebrities which included the likes of Quoc Dai, Hoang Map and Phi Thanh Van.

On August of 2014, Khong Tu Quynh decided to sever ties with her longtime management team at NewGen Entertainment.  She has since signed with 6th Sense Entertainment, a competitor of NewGen Entertainment which also currently represents singer Dong Nhi.  Her first solo release under the management of 6th Sense Entertainment was the hit single, Dung Co Niu Keo (Don't Hold on), released in the fall of 2014.

She is currently in a relationship with actor/singer Ngo Kien Huy.

Hiep Thi Le

Hiep Thi Le (1969-2017) was a Vietnamese-American film actress, mostly known for her portrayal of philanthropist and author Le Ly Hayslip in the Oliver Stone film, Heaven and Earth (1993), and restaurateur.

Born on November 30, 1969, Hiep Thi Le was one of five children in a family from Da Nang, Central Vietnam.  While just weeks shy of her tenth birthday, she and a younger sister courageously boarded a fishing boat along with 60 other refugees and sailed to Hong Kong to reunite with their father who had successfully defected from communist Vietnam a year earlier.  After months spent at a refugee camp in Hong Kong, her entire family would reunite and resettle in Oakland, California.

After graduating from Oakland High School, Hiep Thi Le went onto the University of California, Davis as a physiology major.  During her senior year in college, she along with several friends went on an open casting call held at San Jose State University for an upcoming Oliver Stone film based on the Vietnam War.  Out of 16,000 Vietnamese-American delegates, Hiep Thi Le, without any prior acting experience, ended up being chosen for the coveted role of the lead character in, Heaven and Earth (1993), a biopic film based on the two bestselling autobiographical novels written by philanthropist and Vietnamese-American philanthropist Le Ly Hayslip, When Heaven and Earth Changed Places (Doubleday, 1989) and Child of War, Woman of Peace (Doubleday, 1993).  Starring Tommy Lee Jones, Joan Chen, Debbie Reynolds and Dustin NguyenHeaven and Earth would be the third in Oliver Stone's trilogy of Vietnam War films after Platoon (1986) and Born on the Fourth of July (1989).  Unlike Oliver Stone's two prior critical and commercial successes about the Vietnam War, Heaven and Earth was not honored with any major accolade in the film industry and was a financial disaster.  However, Hiep Thi Le's performance had won her many praises from film critics which launched an unexpected acting career in films for the young UC Davis graduate.

Following Heaven and Earth, Hiep Thi Le went onto star in Bugis Street, a Hong Kong-produced film about Singaporean transvestite prostitutes, alongside actors Michael Lam and Wai-Leung.  Among her other film acting credits include Dead Men Can't Dance (1997), Cruel Intentions (1999), Bastards (1999), Shark in a Bottle (2000) with Danny Nucci, Green Dragon (2001) which was directed by Timothy Linh Bui and starred Patrick Swayze, Forest Whitaker, Don Duong, Kathleen Luong and Kieu Chinh, the Singaporean-produced film Return to Pontianak (2001), National Security (2003), Julia (2007) and Touch (2011).

In 2002, Hiep Thi Le embarked on a new career as a restaurateur opening up Le Cellier, a French-Vietnamese bistro located on the border of Venice Beach and Marina Del Rey in Southern California.  In 2012, the restaurant name had been changed to China Beach Bistro.  On December 19, 2017, Hiep Thi Le died of complications from stomach cancer at the age of 48.  She is survived by her parents, 6 siblings, husband and 2 children.  Her memoir, Daughter of the Sea:  My Voyage to Freedom and Womanhood, has yet to be published.

Luong Tung Quang

Luong Tung Quang (1971-    ) is an overseas Vietnamese singer.

Born as Luong Quang Truong Chinh in Saigon, South Vietnam, he is the youngest in a family of four boys.  One year after graduating from the prestigious Petrus Ky High School in Saigon, he along with his mother and one older brother were able to relocate to Perth, Australia where they would be reunited with one of his older brothers who had resettled there since 1980.  His one older brother who had chosen to remain in Vietnam, unfortunately had passed away in 1995.

To many of his fans today, Luong Tung Quang had first gained prominence as a recording artist for Van Son Entertainment back in 1998.  From his debut music video appearance with his rendition of Nuoc Mat (Cry) featured on volume 10 of Van Son Entertainment's Nu Cuoi & Nu Cuoi series, he exploded onto the overseas Vietnamese music scene mesmerizing viewer audiences with his good looks, charm and vocal talents.  In the two years that followed, Luong Tung Quang would become the most popular male music artist on the Van Son Entertainment series scoring a handful of hit songs like Cuoc Tinh Danh Mat, a cover of a Chinese love song with Vietnamese lyrics he had written himself, Neu Da Yeu, Cuoc Tinh Cay Dang, Cuoc Tinh Doi Gian and Sao Van Con Yeu.  In addition, he had also recorded several well-received duets with fellow label mate, Tam Doan, for Van Son Entertainment which included Khuc Nhac Duoi Trang and Vi Dau Yeu Ngay Xua.  


Prior to his association with Van Son Entertainment, Luong Tung Quang had began his professional singing career back in Perth, Australia during the early 1990s as the lead male singer for a local Vietnamese band called Hy Vong.  While in Australia, he had managed to gain a sizable following of fans within the overseas Vietnamese community resettled there and was then known by the stage name, Tung Quang.

In 2001, after two years as an exclusive artist signed with Van Son Entertainment, Luong Tung Quang was then offered a contract with Thuy Nga Paris, the largest and most prolific overseas Vietnamese music production label.  He has since appeared in a total of 38 volumes of the popular Paris By Night music video series produced by Thuy Nga Paris, beginning with his performance of Trai Tim Ran Vo written by Quoc Hung on volume 61 that was filmed in Paris, France.  Luong Tung Quang has enjoyed one of the longest professional collaborations with the Thuy Nga Paris music production label which has continued to this day.  Under the Thuy Nga Paris label, he has recorded numerous duets, as well as appeared on music videos, with other top artists like Tu Quyen, Minh Tuyet, Don Ho, Thuy Tien, Nhu Loan, Ho Le Thu and Bao Han.  For almost two decades, his immense popularity has taken him to all four corners of the world performing at sold-out live concert shows and has turned Luong Tung Quang into one of the most recognizable Vietnamese male singers worldwide.

Minh Hieu

Minh Hieu (1935-    ) is a famous Vietnamese singer and film actress.

Born as Do Thi Lai in Soc Trang, South Vietnam, she grew up as the youngest in a working class family of five children.  Her father, known as "Chu Tam", owned a local barber shop and shared with his youngest daughter a common deep interest in music and the performing arts.  On a nightly basis, after closing up shop Chu Tam would turn his barber shop into a mini-café where he and a few of his friends would perform live music with an open mic for the guests.  This was where Minh Hieu had gotten her start singing in front of a live audience while in her early teens.  The guests from the local neighborhood soon began taking notice of how Chu Tam's youngest daughter was blossoming into a striking beauty toward her later teen years and how gifted and talented she was as a singer.  Prior to becoming an adult, Minh Hieu was already somewhat of a celebrity in her hometown as guests had steadily poured in nightly at her father's barber shop just to catch a glimpse of the beautiful young aspiring singer.

At the age of 18, Minh Hieu turned professional in her singing career and relocated to Saigon.  She quickly became one of Saigon's most popular headliners performing nightly at major cabarets and dance halls such as Arc-en-Ciel, Anh Vu, Hoa Binh and La Cigale.  Minh Hieu had also become one of the bestsellers among recording artists in South Vietnam during the 1950s and 1960s.  She had collaborated with several major record labels in Saigon such as Continental, Viet Nam and Song Nhac, which had produced and released her first solo studio album, Tieng Hat Minh Hieu.  As one of the most admired music artists recognized by the ARVN, Minh Hieu toured extensively entertaining troops that were stationed at various military bases throughout South and Central Vietnam.  Among her most famous hit songs included Manh Tinh Thuong written by Manh Giac, Quen Nhau Tren Duong Ve written by Thang LongNgan Cach written by Y Van, Pho Dem written by Tam Anh, Em La Tat Ca written by Lam Phuong, Mau Tim Hoa Sim written by Song Ngoc7 Ngay Doi Mong written by Nhat Truong and Mot Lan Trong Doi written by Duy Khanh.  Minh Hieu's status as a famous singer coupled with her movie star good looks, in which she had often been dubbed for having a resemblance to Hollywood screen goddess Elizabeth Taylor, led her to opportunities in the film industry of South Vietnam.  In 1961, Minh Hieu made her acting debut on the silver screen portraying the role of singer Thanh Thuy in the film directed by Nguyen Long, Thuy Da Di Roi.

During a trip she had made out to Pleiku to entertain ARVN troops in 1965, a chance meeting would take place for Minh Hieu with one of South Vietnam's highest ranked admirals and member of the former royal family of Annam (the former name of Imperial Central Vietnam), Vietnam's last ruling dynasty, admiral Vinh Loc, that would forever change her life.  Upon meeting Minh Hieu, the admiral was instantaneously overtaken by her charm and beauty.  Despite being already married with four children, Vinh Loc was completely smitten and fell head over heels in love with the young singer.  This preceded by the decorated admiral's decision to leave his wife and family and marry singer Minh Hieu sparked one of the biggest scandals in the history of modern South Vietnam.  For the duration of years leading up to the Fall of Saigon, Minh Hieu's name would become synonymous of a femme fatale Lolita.

Being the wife of Vinh Loc, a prominent heir and first cousin to Emperor Bao Dai, Minh Hieu would no longer have to work or even worry about any financial uncertainties that had plagued her in the past.  She then settled into a life of luxury as the pampered wife of a wealthy admiral.  However, for Minh Hieu changing into this new life and social status did not come without a price.  She had to learn to accept that her singing career was over and how her reputation had been severely tarnished as she was viewed as an infamous homewrecker by the same public that she had once been given with such adoration.

After the Fall of Saigon, Minh Hieu and Vinh Loc left their native homeland for the United States.  Resettled to a family life in a suburb outside of Houston, Texas since 1975, with almost two decades having passed since the scandal had first broken out publicly, it seemed as if time had quieted down such matters for Minh Hieu.  Finally in the 1980s, she managed to muster up the courage to face her public once again and resumed her singing career.  Minh Hieu has since performed at live shows for overseas Vietnamese audiences across the United States, Canada, Australia and Europe.  In 1983, she recorded her first overseas Vietnamese-produced solo studio album, Em La Tat Ca, released by the production label, Thanh Lan.  In recent years, Minh Hieu has collaborated with Asia Entertainment making appearances on the popular live show music video series.  Among her most popular appearances for Asia Entertainment include her solo of Chau Ky's Tieng Ca Do Ve Dau featured on volume 73 released in 2013 and duets with Lam Thuy Van of Doan Nguyen's Toi Di Tim Lai Mot Mua Xuan and with Thanh Thuy in a medley of two songs written by Huynh Anh, Kiep Cam Ca and Mua Rung, respectively featured on volumes 60, released in 2008, and volume 75, released in 2015.

On January 8, 2009, Minh Hieu's longtime husband, Vinh Loc, passed away at the age of 84.

In the 1970s, Nai Bonet concentrated more in her acting career.  Among her film credits included Soul Hustler (1973), The Soul of Nigger Charley (1973), The Greatest (1977) and Fairy Tales (1977).  After the critical and commercial failures of her last two movies, Nocturna (1979) and Hoodlums (1980), in which she had starred in as well as produced, Nai Bonet retired from the Hollywood film industry.

Thien Kim

Thien Kim (1972-    ) is an overseas Vietnamese singer.

Born as Tran Thien Kim on August 29, 1972 in Saigon, South Vietnam, she began singing and had learned how to play the dan tranh, a Vietnamese musical stringed instrument similar to the Japanese koto, as a young child.  Thien Kim's extraordinary vocal talents were further proven with her abilities to sing in various different Vietnamese music genres such as traditional Vietnamese folk opera known as cai luong and vong co.  At the age of 14, she began performing regularly for major outdoor music venues and dance halls in Ho Chi Minh City.  In 1998, with the encouragement from both her parents, particularly her mother who was also a professional singer known by her stage name, Thanh Truc, Thien Kim entered the prestigious talent competition, Tieng Hat Truyen Hinh Thanh Pho Ho Chi Minh, where she impressively placed second with her solo performance of Xa Vang, a song written by composer Nguyen Van Hien.

During her freshman year in college, Thien Kim along with her family left their native Vietnam and emigrated to the United States on May of 1995.  Resettling in Orange County, California, Thien Kim immediately resumed her music career recording for Nhac Tinh, a smaller overseas Vietnamese production label.  She also found work as a regular performer at Vietnamese nightclubs around Orange County, beginning first briefly at the Can Nightclub in Garden Grove owned by singer Le Uyen (former member of a singing trio in Saigon known as The Loan Sisters) before joining the lineup of permanent performers at Ritz Nightclub in Anaheim owned by legendary promoter/musician Ngoc Chanh.  Blessed with a strong, yet sensual lower-pitched singing voice and natural good looks, Thien Kim managed to acquire for herself a sizable following of fans which included not only audience members but also colleagues within the overseas Vietnamese music industry in just a short period of time after resettling in the United States.  Through an introduction from director and music videographer Howard Hue, singer Nhat Ha's then husband, Thien Kim was able to make her debut appearance on music videos in Sao Sang (Shining Star), produced by legendary singer Giao Linh for Giao Linh Productions and released in 1997.

The year of 1997 would prove to be a major turning point in Thien Kim's professional life.  She signed with Thuy Nga Paris as an exclusive artist for audio recordings and music video appearances on the popular live show series, Paris By Night.  Her debut on the Paris by Night stage was on volume 39 where she appeared as part of a trio alongside male artists, Lay Minh and Khanh Hoang, performing Lien Khuc Dem Do Thi, a medley of Vietnamese songs written by composers Y Van, Nguyen Anh 9 and Bang Giang.  Thien Kim remained with the Thuy Nga Paris label for a total of five years recording a series of solo studio albums which included Khi Nguoi Xa Toi (1997), Biet Lam Sao Thoi Nho (1998), Vi Sao (1999), Tinh La Gi? (2000), Sac Mau (2001) and Toc Gio Thoi Bay (2002), as well as a pair of duet albums with Quoc Hung, Con Gai Doi Muoi (1999) and Vo Sao Em Oi (2001), and a duet album with The Son, Neu Dieu Do Xay Ra (2000).  She appeared on 23 different volumes on the Paris by Night video series from 1997 until 2001 performing various songs as a solo artist, as well as occasional duets and ensemble performances alongside other artists such as Don Ho, Nguyen Hung, Nhu Quynh, Luu Bich, Phi Nhung, Lynda Trang Dai and Nhu Loan.

In 2002, Thien Kim left Thuy Nga Paris and has since been in association with Asia Entertainment.  Her popularity has continued with overseas Vietnamese audiences worldwide with her audio recordings and music video appearances for the Asia Entertainment label.  Among her most well-received performances with Asia Entertainment include renditions of songs such as Bien Nho written by Trinh Cong Son, Moi Em Ve written by Viet Dzung, Mua Dong Cua Anh written by Nhat Truong and several duets with legendary singers such as Le Thu, Le Uyen (of Le Uyen & Phuong), Kim Anh, Philip Huy, Nguyen Khang and Ngoc Huyen.

In her personal life, Thien Kim has been a cancer survivor and also holds a bachelor's degree in economics from the University of California, Irvine.  In recent years, she has also become a restaurateur owning and operating Pho Thien Kim in Garden Grove, California.  Thien Kim maintains an extremely busy schedule as an overseas Vietnamese singer, a businesswoman and a law student.
