Huong Tram's life in America at the age of 27
When she first came to America, Huong Tram focused on studying and traveling everywhere to find joy again. Not being famous in a foreign land, Huong Tram was happy being a poor student, she could freely do everything without fear of judgmental looks from those around her.
Once, Huong Tram confided: "Tram is enjoying every minute of the life of a normal person. It is a morning when I leave the house without makeup and without fear of being scrutinized, it is the afternoons when I lie in my rented house thinking about myself yesterday, today and tomorrow, it is doing laundry with my butt up, it is the rented house that sometimes has a burning air conditioner and I stay up all night sweating, it is running down from the top of a high hill alone screaming loudly regardless of the people around pointing and laughing. Tram feels so refreshed and renewed now. This poverty is so rich because it contains the truth, rich in belief but in reality sometimes very poor".

Occasionally, Huong Tram will sing at events in the US to satisfy her passion for art and to cover her studies. "My finances are also very difficult, I have to share this honestly. In America, at the end of the month, there are a lot of bills sent home, from electricity and water bills, house rent to car insurance, health insurance, etc. Before, I thought I was going to the US to study, but besides studying, I still worked to earn money to maintain my life. However, during the recent pandemic, I couldn't work to earn money," Huong Tram said in an exchange in June 2021.

Faced with negative rumors when going to the US, Huong Tram once publicly shared with the media after releasing the MV Dong Tinh with the image of a pregnancy test: "I think this new MV is a product that destroys all the baseless rumors about me being pregnant or going to the US to give birth for a living. I know that netizens often spread false rumors about me. If I don't respond once and just stay silent, focusing only on my work, people will think that the rumors are true. I don't like to explain with words, speech or status lines on Facebook. I want to use my music to explain everything, all the rumors about me. Having lived in showbiz for a long time, I know that all my senior artists are familiar with rumors, so they understand how I feel."
