| Ngoc Trinh's revealing dress on May 19 in Cannes caused offense and received much criticism from the public. |
On May 19, Ngoc Trinh attended the premiere of the movie "A Hidden Life" at the 72nd Cannes Film Festival in France wearing a revealing, offensive dress that caused a stir in public opinion.
Not only domestic media but many international news sites also believe that Ngoc Trinh dresses boldly and offensively to attract attention.
In response to public outrage, the Chief of Office of the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, Nguyen Thai Binh, also stated that Ngoc Trinh’s image was offensive and inappropriate to Vietnamese culture. Even though it was an international event, Ngoc Trinh still participated as a Vietnamese, so her outfit was unacceptable and tarnished Vietnam’s image in front of international friends.
Besides, Mr. Nguyen Thai Binh also said that the Ministry did not send Ngoc Trinh to Cannes in any capacity.
Speaking further about the incident, Mr. Nguyen Thai Binh affirmed that through the way he responded to the media, Ngoc Trinh was aware of her outfit and considered herself a lingerie queen, so dressing like that was normal. Therefore, "I hope everyone will strongly condemn Ngoc Trinh's actions so that young people do not have a distorted view of such excessive confidence," Mr. Nguyen Thai Binh shared.
