Ms. Dang Tuyet Mai, a former beauty queen of Saigon, passed away on December 21st (local time) due to lung cancer at the age of 75.

Mr. Bui Xuan Hien, the husband of Mrs. Dang Tuyet Mai, said that before her death, his wife had difficulty breathing and was taken by her family to Hoag Hospital in Newport Beach, California for treatment. However, she did not survive. She had previously suffered from lung cancer.

According to singer Thanh Ha, MC Ky Duyen didn't get to see her mother when she passed away because she returned to Vietnam to attend to her business. "Poor Ky Duyen. In the morning, she was still laughing and smiling happily at the restaurant's grand opening. That evening, she came home crying and then packed her bags to go to the airport to be with her mother. But her mother passed away before she could see her only daughter one last time," the overseas singer shared.

Kỳ Duyên once shared that her mother, being knowledgeable about art, served as a role model for her in maintaining a positive public image. Ms. Đặng Tuyết Mai also worked as an MC for a period, so she always offered advice and guidance to her daughter in this field. Kỳ Duyên is considered a perfect "copy" of her mother, from appearance to style. Ms. Đặng Tuyết Mai placed great emphasis on her daughter's education. The female MC began vocal lessons at the age of five, and dance and painting at 13. Later, Kỳ Duyên studied law but pursued a career in the entertainment industry.

MC Ky Duyen has always been proud to have a beautiful and talented mother. On her mother Dang Tuyet Mai's 73rd birthday, she shared photos of the two of them wearing bikinis and showing off their figures.
