Criticized for 'dancing too much', what did Miss Mai Phuong say?
Miss World Vietnam 2022 Mai Phuong's dancing performance is causing controversy with many mixed opinions, however the beauty queen thinks it is normal.
Recently, a clip of Miss Mai Phuong sucking on a lollipop and dancing while attending a music event was widely shared on social media, causing controversy. Many opinions said that this image of Mai Phuong does not match the criteria of a beauty queen, and she should be more restrained while she is still in her term and about to compete internationally.
After being crowned Miss World Vietnam 2022, Mai Phuong has always been associated with a gentle and innocent image, so it is difficult for the public to immediately accept this strange image of hers. Some audiences are worried that this will affect her achievements as well as the international view of Vietnam's representative at the upcoming Miss World beauty pageant.
