Singer Thu Phuong has just confirmed that she has joined the same management company as singer Phuong My Chi, DTAP, after many years of working independently. This decision of the female singer has received attention.
This age is still afraid of failure
At the age of 52, Thu Phuong used to think that she should choose a safe, gentle path like her contemporaries, but participating inBeautiful lady riding the wind and breaking the wavesmade the singer change her perspective. She realized she needed to do more with music.
“I am afraid of failure, and the pressures of this age. Each person only has one life to live. I have been through many things, and have also stumbled many times. I want to share this spirit with young people, that is happiness,” she shared.
Thu Phuong did not dare to think of "starting a business" from scratch when she was over 50 years old. She considered this a way to discover herself and get acquainted with the musical language of generation Z.
VoiceThe River of LazinessI feel like I'm walking on a crowded train track right now. The road is difficult, but she and her colleagues are full of enthusiasm to walk.
Why does a person who is still called "big sister" and has been singing for nearly 30 years like Thu Phuong have fear?The singer said that feeling came to her when she was very young.
At the age of 14, Thu Phuong left her hometown in Hai Phong for Hanoi, becoming an actress at the Youth Theater. When she became famous and loved by the audience, she chose to move to the South to develop. Then Thu Phuong left Vietnam, settled down in the US and worked. When she returned, she faced new things and felt like she couldn't keep up. The journey she had gone through was filled with worries and fears.
“At this age, it is hard to know what tomorrow will bring. I get through everything with faith, hope, and knowing that I have a responsibility to do. When people still have fear, they can control themselves. The fear here is not necessarily something specific, but knowing that there is something that needs to be overcome and tried,” she expressed.
Despite her concerns, Thu Phuong sees it as a motivation to commit and challenge herself. She is not constrained by her inherent image and style to frame herself. The singer tries her hand at rap, dance, and covers of pop songs that are not her forte. The singer born in 1972 consoles herself because she feels that she did not do badly and that the audience also accepted her. In the future, she believes she will do more.
On the other hand, Thu Phuong admits that artists like her sometimes feel lost and find it difficult to cope, especially with public opinion and social networks.
She has been a coach, judge, and even a player for several music shows and competitions. Showbiz and media through Thu Phuong's perspective are quite harsh. Audience demands are getting higher and higher, and the standards for artists are stricter than before.
Despite innovation and integration, Thu Phuong said it is difficult to be as youthful as the current generation of Gen Z singers. In return, the singer realized that her strengths are her love for the profession, her experience, and her love for the audience.
“I cannot bring youthfulness, but I can bring experience and depth, helping people to contemplate more. However, I think keeping up with trends is important. This is not only my challenge but also a problem for everyone,” Thu Phuong said.
Want to have a wedding at 70 years old

The change in space, climate, and worries about her young children… more or less affected her health and spirit. However, she promised herself to overcome it all.
In response to the media's questions about the wedding being constantly postponed and when it will take place, Thu Phuong happily revealed: "I am truly happy to have a wedding day because my children, the audience, and my family always want it. However, when a project ends, I enter a new combination. I told Mr. Dung that when I stop working, I will wholeheartedly organize the wedding and enjoy the honeymoon. I think organizing a wedding at the age of 70 is still okay," she said.
