Vietnamese artists often abstain from eating sugarcane or drinking sugarcane juice before going on stage. In the program Happy Memories , runner-up Thuy Dung recalled a "terrifying" memory related to this drink.
She said that when she started working in the arts, she often heard people whispering to each other: "Artists are not allowed to drink sugarcane juice." The runner-up's confusion was confirmed when her show was canceled right after she finished drinking a glass of sugarcane juice.
Sugarcane juice is a drink that artists abstain from.
People's Artist Hong Van agrees with this point of view. To prove her point, People's Artist Hong Van cited a series of fascinating stories related to sugarcane juice that she had encountered during her many years in the profession.
"I have witnessed many strange things. In the past, when I sang for my sister Huong Loan at Sao Dem troupe. At that time, in Cam Ranh, a performance gathered several thousand spectators. There was a singer named Tung, every time he stepped on stage, the audience went crazy because of him.
After a performance, Tung ate sugarcane. Huong Loan was scared and pale: "I told you, Tung, you can't eat sugarcane". Tung said: "Don't you see the audience cheering?". He calmly ate the whole piece of sugarcane. Do you believe it? The next day, at the same performance location, Tung walked out and the audience had the opposite reaction from the first night. They shouted: "Go in, you go in". Tung didn't go in, so they threw his slippers onto the stage. Tung sang half a song and stood crying on stage. After that, he had to apologize to the audience and go in" - the actress said.
People's Artist Hong Van revealed that Southern artists absolutely do not dare to drink sugarcane juice before performing.
In addition, Hong Van added: “I am a sugarcane addict but I really don’t dare to eat it. Before performing, I never dared to eat sugarcane. If I perform and a stranger brings sugarcane to eat, there will be a fight in that group.”
However, this is just the personal opinion of some artists. Also appearing in the program Happy Memories, People's Artist Tu Long affirmed that he and many artists do not abstain from anything, including sugarcane juice.
There are also opinions that artists often abstain from eating sugarcane or drinking sugarcane juice before a performance because sugarcane is a sweet and attractive fruit. If eaten before going on stage, they will lose concentration, easily forget their performance, fail their work, and lose prestige.
