Vu Cat Tuong: I admire my woman

Reporter: Vu Cat Tuong has been hiding for too long compared to the rapid development of Vietnamese showbiz, right?

- Singer Vu Cat Tuong : At the concert "Today Tuong 30" which took place nearly a year ago, Vu Cat Tuong shared that what she cannot create a second time is youth, so she always wants to bring the audience the most genuine and original things.

Over the past year, Vu Cat Tuong has never stopped on that journey, still working hard on her creations but also immersed in many thoughts of a person who has gone through 1/3 of her life while making the podcast series VCT Journey. The same goes for "Normal People".

I went through my youth, rushing forward without knowing whether it was right or wrong. People asked me why I was called "Normal People", but it actually had meaning to me. When I went through my youth, became famous and had many things, had many ambitions, but then realized that I had missed out on simple, everyday blessings like delicious meals, 3 meals a day...

I no longer have to force myself to do this or that to be happy, but the little things in life are enough to make me happy. There is no guarantee that I am pleasing everyone, but at least what I am doing makes me happy.

. The way Tuong talks is like the life philosophy of an old person with a lot of experience and knows clearly "great desire, great disappointment"?

- I don't like being old, nor do I want my words to be something grand and far-fetched that makes people think I'm not normal. What I say is exactly what I've experienced. I had a youth full of desire and rushed to find the things that people always think about: money, fame...

And I am loved by the audience so I have everything I want. And then I ask myself "Am I happy with what I have?". The answer is no when I still feel the absence and emptiness in me. Because when we have something, we want something else. Once we reach this peak, we have to work hard to calculate for another peak.

I feel so tired while the feeling of having a delicious meal and a good night's sleep gives me a strange peace and happiness. And I know, what am I looking for?

Vu Cat Tuong shared with Nguoi Lao Dong newspaper about her current life.

People often say "slow down a few beats to feel your own life more clearly" but in this showbiz, Tuong is out of date if he slows down even a step. Less coverage means less fame. Aren't you afraid?

- In the past, my answer would have been fear. Very fear. But now I see it as normal because we have to take responsibility for our choices. I live in seclusion, away from the noise of showbiz, but still demand people to mention me. How could that be so unreasonable?

When I decided to choose my current life, I asked myself: Do I have enough money to live a life without competition? Can I accept that the audience will look at me and not know who I am? Am I really happy with my current choice? My answer is yes. I understand that fame cannot be forced. If I am not favored by the profession and loved by the audience, no matter how crazy I act, I will never be famous.

Before, I was rushing to find fame, but now, I start my day with gratitude. The audience still listens to Tuong's music, still knows who Vu Cat Tuong is, that is an extremely lucky thing for me. What more could I need?

Walls are happier and more peaceful

What made Vu Cat Tuong change so incredibly?

- We have just gone through difficult times, witnessed the loss and survival of lives, I have realized one thing: the concept of a person's achievements in this life is created by themselves. For me, the achievement of my life is just passing each day peacefully with the person I love.

I deeply understand the dream of “house and children” that many people often mention. Having had enough experiences, I think that I am truly enjoying the happiness that comes from my life’s achievement, which is being with my little lover.

. So, has Tuong calculated the date to announce that Tuong and his lover will live together?

- For both of us, those formalities are not as important as how we feel for each other. Of course, with a brave woman like my lover, I owe her the most elaborate formalities because of the sacrifices she has made for me.

Tuong also felt more sorry for his woman.

What did she sacrifice?

- When I decided to come out (publicly) as my true self, I knew I was a brave person. But a girl who accepts me for who I am is a thousand times braver than me. Being myself, psychologically, I feel more comfortable but that doesn't mean my life is easier. I admire that woman's sacrifice and courage.

. Tuong repeatedly mentioned a family and children?

- I really want and have thought about children many times. But in reality, I am not ready to grow up with my own children. I need a little more time.
