Giang Hong Ngoc: Rich men only like good women!

Admitting that she is more of a man than a man and doesn't like using other people's money to be ordered around, Giang Hong Ngoc affirms that she is not the type of person that rich men seek out.

I'm not used to rich people!

- I think you are a bit gentle, don't make shocking statements, and live a bit introverted, unlike people in showbiz....

- Just like you said, just reading one bad comment about me can make me lose sleep for a day. I am easily pressured by public opinion, even over very small things. My mother said: If you are like that after just one small thing, then later when something big happens, you probably won't be able to stand it.

- If you think and get hurt like that, how can you survive in a showbiz full of tricks?

- Up to now, I have existed in showbiz for more than 10 years. I just think that if I have a voice, I will just go my own way without thinking too much. But even if I don't rely on tricks, at least there must be something that reminds the audience while I work too quietly compared to my peers. There are times when I want to change but then I return to my true nature.

In my 12 years of singing, I have seen all the bitterness. So when I have something beyond my imagination, I protect and keep it, not wanting to lose it quickly. I think that if I have a scandal, I will lose everything, so I always avoid it. My parents are also very sensitive. If they hear that their daughter has encountered something in this industry, they will not be able to overcome it. That is what I want to protect for myself and for myself.

- Have you ever wanted to quit showbiz because of gossip and slander?

- Many times! I wanted to quit showbiz when I entered the profession for 5 years. Because I didn't have any sponsors or capital when I entered this profession, I had to find opportunities and earn money based on those opportunities. Many times I was discouraged, I just wanted to stop and get married to have some money to live in peace. Women!

- And you also think about marrying a rich man to avoid suffering?

- I also thought about that. But I am too much of a man, more of a man than a man, so I don't want to use other people's money to be ordered around. That's why I can't get along with rich men. Because rich men only like women who are nagging and obedient to be by their side, listening to what they say, not arguing. My personality is too stubborn and hard, so most of my relationships don't last long because of that. Because I'm too independent, the boyfriend next to me doesn't feel the gentleness of a woman. I admit that I'm not gentle and stubborn in love.

- Have you found a man who meets your criteria yet? I think a man like you is sought after by many people!

- Many people ask me the same question, but maybe because I don't have many social relationships, that's why I'm... single! There was a time when I sang at VIP parties and many men pursued me. But they all just wanted the woman they pursued to obey them. But I once told a very rich man who pursued me that even if he loved me, he wanted to be financially independent and didn't like being ordered around. When they heard that, they let go.

With such a small challenge, they cannot pass it, so surely love will not come. So I think everything depends on fate, even though I am almost 30 (laughs). I want to focus on making money and working during this time because I personally see that Giang Hong Ngoc is still bland. I want to have a change and a breakthrough so that people in the profession around me and the audience will not be disappointed in me.

With so many suitors, what indecent offer would make you feel offended?

- There are people who accept indecent offers. Some people say they are willing to spend money for me to make music products, release albums, do live shows... to be as famous as possible. But life doesn't give you anything for free. Hearing that makes me very eager, but after meeting them a few times, I see that they think differently. They don't see me as talented at all. They just think I have looks to trade. They showed me that they think like that, so right then I decided to stop.

Not ashamed because dad is a motorbike taxi driver

- I read the news about Giang Hong Ngoc's father driving a motorbike taxi. Many famous people want to hide this because they are embarrassed, but you don't. Why is that?

- It's true that my father used to drive motorbike taxis, Grab, Uber, etc. Every time I came back to the country to perform, my father became my personal driver. When I went on tour abroad, I took my mother with me, so my father was home alone. Since we had a car, my father registered for Grab and Uber to drive to relieve boredom. Many people asked me why I let my father drive like that. I replied that if it brought joy to my father, why would I forbid it? Before the economic difficulties, I could still take care of my parents, so why can't I do it now?

- Have you ever objected to your father driving a motorbike taxi?

- At first, when my father went driving, I was a bit shocked because I was worried about his health and safety. But I didn't stop him from doing that, I just let him work comfortably. I just advised him not to drive at night because it was dangerous. At home, confined to four walls, why don't I let him create his own joy when my mother and I are not home? I thought it would be too selfish for him and myself to forbid it. I remember there was a time when my father drove and brought home 500,000 VND and he was very happy because that was the money he earned himself, he could eat whatever he wanted, spend whatever he wanted. At first, I was shy, but after a few months, I got used to it and didn't feel ashamed of it.

- Did your difficult family circumstances in the past make you think that way?

- If I were to talk about my situation, 3-4 A4 pages would not be enough. I am very sad, but that is why Giang Hong Ngoc is who she is today. If I were born into a family with conditions that provided for everything, I would certainly look down on everything, look down on people who rose from poverty. Having experienced the utmost pain, to me, all the difficulties in life are not important, unless it is death.

I am not so strong that a knife cut does not hurt, but I overcame difficulties that made me lose my mind, so I can easily overcome the difficulties of today. Circumstances help me grow up and gain compassion. Looking at people who did not have a proper education like me in the past, I really want to help them from the heart, not to promote myself.

- No big backers, no tricks, admitting you're still bland in showbiz, so what will you do next to have a breakthrough in your career?

- I have worked with many famous musicians, their songs are very good but for me, I lack the luck to become a hit. Maybe because I have not put all my heart into those songs. After more than 10 years of singing, I have sung all genres, but I still love the lyrical genre the most. Maybe that is why, in addition to the upcoming album, I decided to compete in the Lyrical Perfect Couple - Bolero. Many people ask why I decided to be a contestant when I am famous and have a good salary? But I don't care what people say. I just think that being closer to the audience, I can only gain, not lose. I put aside all my pride and focus on singing really well.

- Thanks for the chat!
