"I'm pretty" controversy because the contestant is too old, Miu Le - Phuong My Chi creates drama

"I am beautiful and happy" gathers 30 artists from many generations, from the end of 8X to Gen Z born in 2003. Among them, five artists in the U40 group include Bich Phuong, Phuong Ly, Miu Le, Tien Tien and Bao Anh.

Bich Phuong is the oldest, born in 1989 (36 years old), and the youngest artist is Anh Sang (born in 2006, 19 years old).

As soon as the list of artists was announced, a debate erupted around whether artists who have passed the ag.e of 30 are still suitable for a program with a youthful name such as Em Xinh Say Hi. "The 2 children on the cover are beautiful, but the heart is very bad. Chau and Quynh Anh," she humorously teased her colleagues.

Some viewers asked: "I thought this sho.w was for Gen Z friends, but Bich Phuong also participated?", "All U30 and U40 call me pretty, it's awkward", "Is it okay to be almost twice the ag.e of other friends but compete with them?".

However, many viewers criticized, saying that ag.e should not be a barrier in an artistic playground. "Who doesn't like being young and beautiful, it's okay to be me", "My brother is also full of people over 30 participating, so are you beautiful, what's strange", some comments wrote.

Previously, Brother was enthusiastic with a series of concerts that attracted hundreds of thousands of audiences, many songs were in the top trending, Isaac - born in 1988 - was the oldest artist of the program.

For the artists, participating this time is not only a comeback, but also a way to renew themselves. Bich Phuong expressed: "I am satisfied with my choice when I agree to participate in Em Xinh Thai. I was connected, trying my hand in a new role. I am still eager to work with young people to learn new things and share my experiences. My strength is... older than everyone, only younger than Mr. Tran Thanh."

She expressed her personal opinion on the artist's image: "I don't want to be anyone, I just want to see more clearly my own portrait. Everyone changes, it is impossible to keep an image forever."

Meanwhile, Bao Anh - who once withdrew from the sho.w Beautiful Sister Stepping on the Wind and Turning the Waves season 1 for personal and health reasons - said that this appearance was a memorable milestone: "This is not a comeback, but the first time I choose to appear in full, radiant and ready for all the good things deserved. Music is love, the audience is family. And I'm always here, with a smile and an open heart for this journey."

The program was also controversial when there were artists who did not come from the professional music field such as Chau Bui, Quynh Anh Shyn.

Many viewers expressed their concerns about the selection criteria: "I don't understand why a fashionista is chosen for a sho.w that is more musical? You are beautiful, so it is a playground for personality and colorful vocals. If you are on the air just because you dress beautifully, is it fair to people who are really capable of performing and singing?"

Despite the debates, the producer expects Em Pretty to follow the success of Brother Say Hi - a program that once created a strong effect on social networks.

Despite many debates, the producer affirmed that the goal of the program is to aim at a new generation of female idols - maintaining Vietnamese identity, and at the same time bringing sharper clarity through a series of new hits, impressive visual elements and virality. The producer also explained that "pretty" means Real Aura - the creative spirit is not limited to a single image, always changing, always moving.

It is expected that Em Pretty will be broadcast at the end of May, the host is MC Tran Thanh.

Before airing, the program revealed many equally interesting funny interviews of beautiful children.

Phuong My Chi said that she came to the program with an attitude of exchange, expressing herself in many aspects. Above all, she also wants to be a screenwriter, bring her bold ideas to the audience and is aiming for "actors" for her skits.

Meanwhile, Miu Le caused confusion when she declared that she "hated" some beautiful children in the sho.w.
