Duyen Quynh apologized after the lip-syncing incident with 6.5 billion views, fans decided not to forgive

After a shocking performance at Green Wave 2025, Duyen Quynh officially apologized for the lip-syncing incident of the hit song 6.5 billion views. But, instead of empathy, the singer is facing a wave of harsher criticism than ever.

The 2025 Green Wave Award Ceremony should have been the peak of Duyen Quynh's glory, but now it has become a "black mark" that is difficult to erase in her career. Immediately after the song "Continue to write the story of peace" received a special award, social networks exploded with a clip recording the moment the female singer let go of the mic but her voice still sounded full of inner strength. The incident became even more serious when this song was "national" with a record number of 6.5 billion views on digital platforms.

Under too much pressure from public opinion, on the evening of February 3, Duyen Quynh chose to face directly on her personal page. She admitted that she had an unprofessional night and sent a sincere apology to the audience. The singer said that she stayed up many nights reading comments and reflecting on her shortcomings. However, the act of pinning an apology at the top of his personal page still does not seem to have enough weight to calm the anger of music lovers.

Under the singer's post, a heated debate broke out with the majority of comments expressing overwhelming disappointment. The audience thinks that, with a real artist and a song with such great meaning, lip-syncing on live broadcast is an act of disrespect for the public. Many harsh comments pointed out that, if there was no "mic away from mouth" incident, would Duyen Quynh voluntarily admit her fault or would she continue to enjoy the aura in silence?

The wave of protests did not stop at technical incidents but also swirled deeply into professional ethics. Public opinion questions the responsibility of the artist when standing on a stage of national symbolism. Some even asked for a review of the awards the song has received over the past year. The strictness of the online community this time shows a clear signal: Today's audiences are no longer easy to compromise with incidents in the name of "technical" to cover up the lack of care.

Although a small part of fans spoke out in defense, saying that over-singing incidents were inevitable at live TV events, these voices were quickly buried. The majority of the audience affirmed that an apology is necessary, but to forgive, it takes a very long time, even a complete change in the mindset of the profession. Phrases such as "loss of trust" or "billion-view trick" keep appearing, turning Duyen Quynh's apology into the focus of satire.

The hit "Continue to write the story of peace" originally has a heroic and proud color, but this incident has inadvertently cast a shadow on the meaning of the work. Looking at the number of 6.5 billion views, people can't help but feel sorry for a talent who already has all the elements to shine brightly. Handling a crisis with an apology is the right process, but the price of losing credibility in front of millions of audiences is something that any artist must be wary of.

Currently, Duyen Quynh's side still refuses to answer more about the details of the incident. However, the drastic reaction of the online community is the most valuable lesson for her. Can Duyen Quynh use her actions to prove that her apology is sincere, or will this crack forever be irreparable?
