Prior to achieving national fame on the stage as a comedic actress, Hong Van had made a name for herself as a pop music singer in Ho Chi Minh City. From her first appearance on the stage in a comedy sketch, it became apparent that her acting skills would overshadow her career as a pop music singer. In 1991, her portrayal on a sketch entitled, "Ba Mat Ga, Ong Mat Net" (She Lost Her Chicken, He Lost His Manners), her portrayal of a whacky, acid-tongued, feisty Northern Vietnamese pheasant girl won the hearts of Vietnamese audiences worldwide.

After turning professional, Quang Dung would experience difficulties within the first couple of years in Ho Chi Minh City. His classical style of singing was deemed by some as being outdated and unmarketable with the younger generation. Then one day, while visiting Trinh Nightclub, Quang Dung would catch the attention of renowned Vietnamese composer, Trinh Cong Son, with his renditions of Bien Nho and Diem Xua. After he had been given an autographed composition of Trinh Cong Son's Bien Nghin Thu O Lai, Quang Dung decided to record and make the song the title of his debut album in 2001.

Ho Ngoc Ha (1984- ) first rose to prominence as a fashion model and has since enjoyed even bigger successes in her careers as a Vietnamese pop singer and film actress. Born and raised in Central Vietnam, Ho Ngoc Ha's exotic good looks are a clear sign of her Eurasian mixed genes. Her paternal grandfather was French who had resettled in Vietnam during the French colonial era. At the age of 15, Ho Ngoc Ha began modeling professionally. Four years later, her modeling career would take her to Ho Chi Minh City where she competed in the 2003-2004 Supermodel of Vietnam Contest taking the first prize. Although her modeling career was in full swing, Ho Ngoc Ha had her sights set on pursuing a career as a professional singer. Her notoriety as a fashion model helped land her a guest spot on the popular televised program, Nguoi Dep Hat (Beautiful People Who Sing) where she cautght the eye of musician composer, Bao Quoc. Soon after, Ho Ngoc Ha would be contacted by Bao Quoc with a personal invitation in which she readily accepted to record a song written and produced by the musician, himself, and would later be featured on a compilation album of his compositions recorded by various other artists. This would mark Ho Ngoc Ha's very first professional audio recording.
In 2004, Ho Ngoc Ha recorded her debut solo studio album, 24 Gio 7 Ngay (24 Hours 7 Days). Although relatively well-produced, promotion for the album was rather weak as it didn't receive the strong financial backings from the record label, Viet Tan Studio, and therefor did not achieve the commercial success she had hoped for. However, the album's distribution was fairly wide enough to introduce Ho Ngoc Ha onto the pop music scene in Vietnam and allowed her the exposure needed to partake at numerous live shows throughout Vietnam. As a live performer, Ho Ngoc Ha triumphed as audiences instantaneously took notice of her regal stage presence and elegant style of performing. During this time, despite the fact that she was new to the pop music scene many members from the audience would recognize Ho Ngoc Ha due to her successful career as a fashion model having one of the most recognizable faces. Before the year ended, Ho Ngoc Ha's singing career would gain significant momentum from her highly successful live performances coupled with the exposure generated from a scandal when several of her nude photos she had taken in the past unexpectedly surfaced.
An introduction from musician Huy Tuan, executive producer of Ho Ngoc Ha's debut album, to his fellow musician friend, Duc Tri, would develop into a romantic, as well as professional relationship. In 2005, she signed with Duc Tri's record company, Music Faces, as an exclusive artist and remained with the label for the next 5 years. Duc Tri would also produce most of her audio recordings while she was under contract with Music Faces. Her first two solo studio albums produced by Duc Tri for Music Faces, Va Em Da Yeu (And I Have Loved) and Muon Noi Voi Anh (I Want to Tell You), released in 2005 and 2006, respectively, were enormous commercial and critical successes giving Ho Ngoc Ha the much needed boost in her music career. In 2006, Ho Ngoc Ha embarked on a successful concert tour performing for overseas Vietnamese audiences in several cities across the United States.
In 2007, Ho Ngoc Ha's personal relationship with Duc Tri ended while she was recording her 4th solo studio album, Khi Ta Da Yeu (When We Were in Love). Like her previous two albums, Duc Tri also was the executive producer. The outcome of this album was a clear indication that their personal break-up had put a strain on their professional working relationship. After production for the album wrapped up, Duc Tri washed his hands from the project almost entirely. The lack of promotion from Music Faces resulted in disappointing sales for the album after its release.
Frustrated with the lackluster performance of her 4th studio solo album, Ho Ngoc Ha went on a two year hiatus. Right around this time, she would also begin a new relationship with auto racer and heir to one of Vietnam's wealthiest billionaire families, Nguyen Quoc Cuong, also known as "Cuong Dollar". Their courtship would make Ho Ngoc Ha the target of tabloids painting an image of her as a gold-digger.
In 2009, Ho Ngoc Ha would return to record an album of singles. Through her association as spokesmodel for Sunsilk of Vietnam, Ho Ngoc Ha successfully lobbied for financial backings from the UK-owned international hair products manufacturer for the launching of the album's promotion campaign. For Ho Ngoc Ha, the heavy promotion for her album brought about a bold resurgence in her singing career. In 2010, she would release her very last solo studio album under the Music Faces label, Tim Lai Giac Mo (Recovered Dreams), which was recorded during her pregnancy with Nguyen Quoc Cuong's child. This would be the first time Ho Ngoc Ha would record a solo studio album without the involvement of Duc Tri as executive producer since signing with Music Faces five years prior. In contrast to what had happened with a previous album released in 2007, Khi Ta Yeu Nhau, Duc Tri was not involved with the production of Tim Lai Giac Mo, yet was heavily involved and strongly supported the promotion campaign for the album. All three of Ho Ngoc Ha's studio albums released during the years 2009-2010 were major successes and reconfirmed her status as a superstar of Vietnamese pop music.
Her latest solo studio album, Moi Tinh Xua (Old Flame), was released in 2014. Three years prior, Ho Ngoc Ha had released, Se Mai Ben Nhau (Invincible). Reportedly one of the costliest productions among albums ever recorded by any artist of Vietnam, Ho Ngoc Ha made history as the first singer of Vietnam to shoot a music video to one of the songs featured on the album in Hollywood. World- renowned musician, Lenon Zervos, who had worked with the likes of major international artists such as Lady Gaga and Kanye West was credited for the remastering of all tracks featured on the album which took place in its entirety overseas in Australia. Ho Ngoc Ha's immense popularity with audiences at concerts have placed her in the ranks among Vietnam's most bankable live performers. In 2009, her widely popular concert tour, named after the title of her 2nd solo studio album,. Va Em Da Yeu, was televised and broadcasted nationally in Vietnam. Two years later, another taping for television featuring Ho Ngoc Ha live in concert, Ho Ngoc Ha Live Concert 2011, took place in front of a smaller, more intimate audience at Lan Anh music venue located in Ho Chi Minh City.
In addition to her singing career, Ho Ngoc Ha has also acted on the Vietnamese silver screen. Like her previous experience as a singer with her debut album, her debut film, 39 Do Yeu (39 Degrees Love) was a commercial disappointment. Her next film, however, Chien Dich Trai Tim Ben Phai (Affair of the Right-Sided Heart) was both a critical and commercial success. In recent years, Ho Ngoc Ha has been in collaboration with the popular television program, Vietnam's version of The Voice, as a mentor. Dubbed unofficially as "Vietnam's Queen of Endorsements", Ho Ngoc Ha has maintained a lucrative modeling career through the years as celebrity spokesmodel endorsing products for companies like Sunplay, Toshiba, Sony Ericsson, Sunsilk, and YanTV.
In 2010, Ho Ngoc Ha and Nguyen Quoc Cuong became parents after she gave birth to a baby boy named by the couple as Nguyen Quoc Hung. From the beginning of their relationship, controversy has not been a stranger to this couple. Upon becoming parents, the couple's controversial decision to remain unmarried has consistently been one of the hottest topics with the tabloids of Vietnam .

Cam Tien (1970- ) is among the most popular performers of the Southern Vietnamese opera stage known as "cai luong". Born in Saigon to working class parents, Cam Tien grew up in Tay Ninh with dreams of one day becoming a teacher although she had acquired a deep appreciation of "cai luong" along with the traditional genre of singing in Vietnamese opera known as "vong co" from a very young age. However, prior to reaching the tender age of 20 Cam Tien would trade in such dreams of attaining a teaching career when she was discovered by veteran "cai luong" performer, Chau Thanh, and Vietnamese opera playwright, Dang Minh, who had both encouraged her to pursue the "cai luong" stage as an actress. Right after her graduation from high school, Cam Tien had relocated to Ho Chi Minh City for her first year at the University of Ho Chi Minh City but was then recruited by the Trung Hieu Theater Company where she would officially make her professional debut as "Lien", the role of the mistress of the protagonist in the play, Song Gio Cuoc Doi (Stormy Life), written by renowned playwright, Vien Hung. The play went on a successful national tour of Vietnam, as its cast members enjoyed performing to packed houses in various major cities in all three regions of the country. In particular, Cam Tien's performance was widely acclaimed as audiences immediately took notice of her unique style of singing, beauty and striking stage presence. Although only a supporting role, Cam Tien's portrayal of "Lien" is considered to be the initial vehicle that had turned her into a star.
The success Cam Tien had enjoyed with the role of "Lien", the mistress in Song Gio Cuoc Doi would then lead the way for a string of other similar theater roles for the young actress. She would duplicate that level of success with her portrayals of "Huong" in Vu An Ma Nguu and "Dung" in Dong Tien Dam Mau. After just 6 months with Trung Hieu Theater Company, Cam Tien rose to become the leading actress alongside fellow actor, Duc Tai, upon the sudden departures of Chau Thanh and Phuong Hang, the theater company's previous leading actor and actress pair. Cam Tien would successfully defy the odds shocking skeptics as Trung Hieu Theater Company would enjoy continued sold out productions with her being billed as their leading lady. Despite Cam Tien's accomplishments as lead actress, her salary from Trung Hieu Theater Company had remained unchanged and was only equivalent to that typically of an understudy. After several unsuccessful attempts she had made to persuade the owners of Trung Hieu Theater Company for a much deserved increase in salary, Cam Tien left the company for Thanh Tu - Trang Bich Lieu Theater Company where she would achieve further success in the play production of Lam Sanh Xuan Nuong. Another successful brief collaboration would follow for Cam Tien in the year of 1989 when she was approached by "cai luong" promoter He Sa of Hoa Hong Theater Company inviting her to fulfill the coveted position of lead actress in popular productions like 17 Nam Truong Han and Kiem Si Doi. It was then that legendary "cai luong" theater promoter, Phi Bang, would realize Cam Tien's tremendous potential as a headliner and lead actress and personally invited her to collaborate with Kim Thanh, one of Vietnam's most prolific "cai luong" theater production companies which boasts an impressive long list of iconic, superstar performers such as Ut Bach Lan, Ngan Vuong and Thai Binh. During Cam Tien's stint at Kim Thanh, she managed to achieve further success gracing the "cai luong" stages with her memorable performances in Nguoi Dien Tren Song Lanh, Nhat Kiem Ba Vuong and Co Xe Doc Ma. Cam Tien had then established herself as one of the most highly regarded and in demand actresses of the "cai luong" theater stage.
In 1990, Cam Tien joined Song Hau Theater Company as their lead actress where she would land a string of lead roles on Cong Chua Toc Vang, Duong Guom Nguyen Ba and Lan va Diep, a timeless, classic play of immense popularity which has been deemed as the Vietnamese equivalent to Romeo and Juliette. When she finally made it to becoming the lead actress for Thanh Nga Theater Company, a dream shared by virtually all "cai luong" performers, Cam Tien would be paired up with Vuong Canh as her leading man. Thanh Nga Theater Company indeed had found a winning combination with the two as they would become one of the most popular and sought after couples on the "cai luong" stage throughout the early 1990s. Together, the pair would share equal billings as the headlining performers in Hoang Tu Mat Nam and Duyen Chi Tinh Em. Cam Tien and Vuong Canh would go on to headline for Tai Nang Playhouse Theater in Ho Chi Minh City.
At the height of her popularity, Cam Tien then set her sights on her personal life when she got married in 1992 to an American citizen of Vietnamese origin who was divorced from a previous marriage and a father of 2 children. For a brief time, Cam Tien then relocated to the United States. Unfortunately, her first marriage would be a short lived one as the couple divorced just 2 years after their wedding had taken place. Since then, Cam Tien has remarried. This time, her husband is Lam Duc, a Canadian citizen also of Vietnamese origin. The couple make their home in Ho Chi Minh City where Lam Duc operates a successful business in the tourism sector of Vietnam. Cam Tien is now a stepmother to Lam Duc's son from a previous marriage and has a daughter with Lam Duc named Kim Tien, born in 2002.
My Linh (1975- ) is one of the four divas of Vietnamese pop music together along with Thanh Lam, Hong Nhung, and Tran Thu Ha. Born in Hanoi, My Linh is the second eldest of three children.
My Linh first rose to prominence in 1996 with her hit songs, Thi Tham Mua Xuan, Chi Toi and Tren Dinh Phu Vang in 1996. Since then, My Linh has traveled all around the world performing for overseas Vietnamese audiences. Among the countries she has performed in have included Japan, the United States, France, Germany, Australia and Canada.
Since 1998, My Linh has been married to musician, Anh Quan. Together, the couple are proud parents of two children, a son and a daughter.
Among her most popular recorded studio albums include Xin Mat Troi Ngu Yen (1996), Mua Thu Khong Tro Lai (1998), Chieu Xuan (1998), Trai Tim Khong Ngu Yen (1998) with Bang Kieu, Toc Ngan (2000), Van Mai Mong Cho (2002), Made In Vietnam (2003), Chat Voi Mozart (2005), De Tinh Yeu Hat (2006), Loi Cua Gio (2010), and Mot Ngay (2011).
Dan Truong (1976- ) is a famous Vietnamese male singer. Born in Ho Chi Minh City as the eldest of four children, Dan Truong first rose to prominence in 1996 with his interpretation of the song, Gui Nguoi Toi Yeu. With the support of show promoter, Le Hoang Tuan, Dan Truong was able to pursue a full-time career as a pop music singer in 1997. He has since recorded a total of over 30 compact discs of Vietnamese popular music. Often paired with singer, Cam Ly, Dan Truong has been one of the most successful recording artists in Vietnam.

Cam Tien (1970- ) is among the most popular performers of the Southern Vietnamese opera stage known as "cai luong". Born in Saigon to working class parents, Cam Tien grew up in Tay Ninh with dreams of one day becoming a teacher although she had acquired a deep appreciation of "cai luong" along with the traditional genre of singing in Vietnamese opera known as "vong co" from a very young age. However, prior to reaching the tender age of 20 Cam Tien would trade in such dreams of attaining a teaching career when she was discovered by veteran "cai luong" performer, Chau Thanh, and Vietnamese opera playwright, Dang Minh, who had both encouraged her to pursue the "cai luong" stage as an actress. Right after her graduation from high school, Cam Tien had relocated to Ho Chi Minh City for her first year at the University of Ho Chi Minh City but was then recruited by the Trung Hieu Theater Company where she would officially make her professional debut as "Lien", the role of the mistress of the protagonist in the play, Song Gio Cuoc Doi (Stormy Life), written by renowned playwright, Vien Hung. The play went on a successful national tour of Vietnam, as its cast members enjoyed performing to packed houses in various major cities in all three regions of the country. In particular, Cam Tien's performance was widely acclaimed as audiences immediately took notice of her unique style of singing, beauty and striking stage presence. Although only a supporting role, Cam Tien's portrayal of "Lien" is considered to be the initial vehicle that had turned her into a star.
The success Cam Tien had enjoyed with the role of "Lien", the mistress in Song Gio Cuoc Doi would then lead the way for a string of other similar theater roles for the young actress. She would duplicate that level of success with her portrayals of "Huong" in Vu An Ma Nguu and "Dung" in Dong Tien Dam Mau. After just 6 months with Trung Hieu Theater Company, Cam Tien rose to become the leading actress alongside fellow actor, Duc Tai, upon the sudden departures of Chau Thanh and Phuong Hang, the theater company's previous leading actor and actress pair. Cam Tien would successfully defy the odds shocking skeptics as Trung Hieu Theater Company would enjoy continued sold out productions with her being billed as their leading lady. Despite Cam Tien's accomplishments as lead actress, her salary from Trung Hieu Theater Company had remained unchanged and was only equivalent to that typically of an understudy. After several unsuccessful attempts she had made to persuade the owners of Trung Hieu Theater Company for a much deserved increase in salary, Cam Tien left the company for Thanh Tu - Trang Bich Lieu Theater Company where she would achieve further success in the play production of Lam Sanh Xuan Nuong. Another successful brief collaboration would follow for Cam Tien in the year of 1989 when she was approached by "cai luong" promoter He Sa of Hoa Hong Theater Company inviting her to fulfill the coveted position of lead actress in popular productions like 17 Nam Truong Han and Kiem Si Doi. It was then that legendary "cai luong" theater promoter, Phi Bang, would realize Cam Tien's tremendous potential as a headliner and lead actress and personally invited her to collaborate with Kim Thanh, one of Vietnam's most prolific "cai luong" theater production companies which boasts an impressive long list of iconic, superstar performers such as Ut Bach Lan, Ngan Vuong and Thai Binh.

After being in relationship with Wilson for seven years,he broke up with me, I did everything possible to bring him back but all was in vain, I wanted him back so much because of the love I have for him, I begged him with everything, I made promises but he refused. I explained my problem to someone online and she suggested that I should contact a spell caster that could help me cast a spell to bring him back but I am the type that don’t believed in spell, I had no choice than to try it, I meant a spell caster called Dr Zuma zuk and I email him, and he told me there was no problem that everything will be okay before three days, that my ex will return to me before three days, he cast the spell and surprisingly in the second day, it was around 4pm. My ex called me, I was so surprised, I answered the call and all he said was that he was so sorry for everything that happened, that he wanted me to return to him, that he loves me so much. I was so happy and went to him, that was how we started living together happily again. Since then, I have made promise that anybody I know that have a relationship problem, I would be of help to such person by referring him or her to the only real and powerful spell caster who helped me with my own problem and who is different from all the fake ones out there. Anybody could need the help of the spell caster, his email: spiritualherbalisthealing@gmail.com or WhatsApp him +15068001647
