After working independently, recently, there has been a lot of information circulating that Phuong My Chi is about to settle down in the US to make it easier for her to sing and serve overseas Vietnamese. Previously, Quang Le revealed that his adopted daughter Phuong My Chi's salary is twice as high as his. Specifically, in a show in the US, she received a salary of 6,000 USD, quite high compared to many famous artists. Even equal to many A-list stars in showbiz.

Regarding this, Quang Le explained: "Phuong My Chi only performs in the US twice a year, so high remuneration is normal. As for me, I have always performed in the US, appearing quite regularly, so my salary is usually only around 3,500 to 4,000 USD." Therefore, the information that "Sister Bay" is about to settle in the US makes many fans believe that it is completely reasonable. Many audiences expressed regret if this is true.

In the face of many rumors, Phuong My Chi spoke up to clarify the truth. She humorously said: "I just heard this." The singer affirmed: "If I go to America to perform, I would love it. But if I go there to live permanently, I am not used to it."

“I don’t like American food. I only like Vietnamese food. My mother and I lost weight after only one week of singing. We couldn’t eat or sleep well because the environment was very different. Most of my audience is in Vietnam, so I think there’s no better place to work than my homeland,” Phuong My Chi said frankly.

Up to now, Phuong My Chi said she has toured in more than 10 countries around the world. Each trip has left the singer born in 2003 with many beautiful memories and interesting experiences. “I really like performing abroad because the photos are very beautiful. The stages abroad are quite large, with audiences of thousands of people. I sell CDs quite well, while in Vietnam people mainly watch YouTube. The feeling of standing on a big stage and being cheered by the audience is very happy. When I encounter difficulties, I often remember that happiness so that I can continue to strive without giving up or stopping,” she confided.

During our conversation, Phuong My Chi admitted: "Up to now, I rarely use money or keep it with me, because my mother goes with me wherever I go. If I want to buy anything, I just ask my mother and it's done. I find this more comfortable than keeping money with me and thinking about it. For me, the salary of 6,000 USD/show this time is the same. I see that people are surprised by that number so it must be big."
