- What is your schedule in Vietnam this trip back?
After the release of the product I wanna be in you with Phuong Thanh, I will soon return to France. I will return to Vietnam every 2 months, the travel expenses are very expensive but there is still a lot to do.
I'll do the first song lightly, the next two songs with Phuong Thanh will be invested more heavily and end with a live show. I'm calculating carefully and not throwing money out the window.
I returned to Vietnam to do art to save myself. In 1998, I left when the artistic blood was still strong in me, accumulated over the years into hidden inhibitions.
During my first years in France, I may have struggled to get used to the new life and take care of my mother instead of my father. In return, I kept my duty to my mother until she passed away.
Thai actress San now.
If I could turn back time, I would still make this decision. As an artist, I was hurt a lot, but what was the point of being a famous actor when my mother was mentally ill and died in a foreign country?
When she passed away, I decided to return to my artistic career. My financial situation is now more stable, unlike that of the student Thai San back then.
There was no way for me to release all those inhibitions except to return to living my old passion again. Art is like blood, if it were separated from me, I would not be able to live.
- How was your life in France?
I founded a travel company, both managing and leading tours. My advantage is that I have connections with Vietnam, and can bring French tourists to my homeland and vice versa.
In a foreign country, I learned to dance, listen to music, occasionally sing and play supporting roles in some films to ease my longing for my job.
Honestly, I am very busy, working day in and day out so I don’t have many close friends. I also bury myself in my studies, in addition to my master’s degree in tourism, I also have degrees in economics and marketing.
Looking back, I'm old and don't have many people around me anymore.
Thai San was once very famous.
- Among the beauties you have ever paired with, who is the most beautiful to you?
Thu Ha! In my memory, she is forever pure beauty with white skin, long black hair, buck teeth and soft voice. Anyone who has ever talked to her once is fascinated and never forgets.
- Why are you still single?
When I was 4 years old, I witnessed my father abusing my mother and then taking my siblings and I back to Vietnam, leaving her alone in a foreign land.
After going through such a childhood, and then living for 10 years with my mother's screams of hatred for love every night, I became afraid of marriage even though I was very lonely.
For more than 20 years in France, I have been accustomed to gnawing at loneliness. I often wander around, drinking until morning because I don’t know what to do. Loneliness is terrible, it can kill people, like the famous French singer Dalida or Le Cong Tuan Anh who chose to commit suicide because he couldn’t stand the loneliness.
I always wish for someone to come to me so that I can love that person, to make up for the lack of love in the past. Sometimes, I feel sad, wondering if anyone still loves me.
Because I am single, the press often asks me about my sexuality. When I was young, I had many male friends who pursued me, and I also had gay friends.
Every time I'm asked, I usually stay silent, sometimes I even ask back 'So what do you like about Thai San?'. I'm easy-going, always accommodating everyone. I think how people behave is more important than what gender you are.
Thai San was supported by many colleagues to return to artistic activities.
- How is the relationship between you and your cousin - famous singer Thanh Lan now?
We are cousins, specifically Thanh Lan's mother is my mother's older sister. Once upon a time, I visited the set where she was filming, unexpectedly director Le Hoang Hoa invited me to play her lover.
Thanh Lan and I acted in exactly 3 scenes: going to Xuan Huong Lake, Cu Hill, holding hands and kissing. The movie was very successful, but my family severely scolded me and her for 'incest'.
Because we often go out together, Lan and I are also misunderstood by many viewers as a 'plane - pilot' couple, including Phuong Thanh. Currently, Lan is living happily in the US. The two sisters still love and cherish each other.
