Ly Thu Thao: Missing due to rumors of HIV infection, 30 years of living in seclusion in the US without a care

At the peak of her career and beauty, Miss Ly Thu Thao sadly left showbiz because of rumors of HIV infection. Since then, information about the queen is extremely rare, only knowing that she is settling in the US.

The beauty of the country in the 90s

Ly Thu Thao is considered the first and only Miss of the Miss Vietnam contest organized by the Ho Chi Minh City Youth Union in 1989. Ly Thu Thao's name became famous throughout Saigon after receiving the crown. After one night, from unknown young girl Ly Thu Thao became a person who was welcomed by the press and the public.

That strangeness and surprise made her unable to hide her happiness and pride. At that time, when I heard the encouragement from my father: "Just enjoy the night and have a good night's sleep. Starting from tomorrow when you wake up, you will not be a Miss but a flower of suffering", she could not. think deeply.

She told herself, well, as a Miss, let's live with that title, do useful things for the community and society. She and the Youth Union participated in many meaningful activities after the coronation day.

Ly Thu Thao also became the longest-serving beauty at a beauty contest in Vietnam.

Thirty years ago, Ly Thu Thao was considered the color of the heavenly perfume. Many photographers who have worked together said that Ly Thu Thao just had to leave her bare face without makeup and she was very beautiful. She has thick, plump lips, big eyes, a well-proportioned face, and a high nose. Since Ly Thu Thao was crowned, the alley leading to her house has been bustling for a long time, because people give flowers, gifts, and teddy bears every day. Possessing heavenly beauty, Ly Thu Thao became an expensive model of both the catwalk and the calendar, once considered the queen of the calendar.

Thanks to the beauty that is loved by the masses, Miss Ly Thu Thao often appears on calendar photos, fashion photos, and performances. As a star in the 90s, Ly Thu Thao lived a simple, close-knit life, always working hard. What impresses many photographers is the energy she brings in the times she works together. There are photos that must be taken from morning to afternoon, but Ly Thu Thao is always happy.

During the peak period, Ly Thu Thao combined with some other names such as Ly Hung, Diem Huong, Viet Trinh, ... to create a famous young star cast in the 1990s. During that time, Ly Thu Thao, Viet Trinh... became a model loved and studied by many young girls.

But then her life turned even more unexpected when she was invited by director Tran Canh Don to participate in the movie "Pearl in the rock" with Ly Hung and Viet Trinh. Ly Thu Thao entered the cinema garden in the mind of a rogue, nothing more and nothing less, because until now she still thinks, showbiz does not belong and is not for her.

Sad to leave showbiz because of rumors of HIV infection

As Miss, at that time Ly Thu Thao preferred social and charity activities rather than acting or fashion shows. She is worried about doing social work, so she rarely participates in art activities. Although she is considered a gentle girl, besides her reputation, she suffered many scandals such as being rumored to be infected with HIV, being blackmailed for revealing sensitive photos...

Perhaps the saying "red face and fate" was like luck in Ly Thu Thao's body when during her time in showbiz, she was unfortunately entangled in disasters that caused her mental breakdown. When she was only twenty years old, she felt that she could not stand.

The scandals and rumors, if they fall on an ordinary person, will be easily forgotten. A scandal that falls on a celebrity will multiply and spread, and everyone will talk about it on the street. Under the pressure of the entertainment industry, Ly Thu Thao left the glamorous world but many pitfalls to come to the US to live.

After a while abroad, Ly Thu Thao suddenly returned home and held a wedding party, marrying her first love: Luu Tan Nhon, also known as Dang Tay.

After getting married, she retired to take care of her small home. She only regretted that she had little opportunity to do more useful things for the society. As for art-related jobs, she said she has no passion.

Although she was advised by her family when deciding to leave, she was still determined to choose a new path. Many people regret because the talent, beauty and fame of Ly Thu Thao has just begun. That aura, so many people have to work hard to build, but she chose to withdraw and shake it all off.

Few people know that, at the peak of her career, Saigon beauty used to have a passionate love affair with Phuoc Sang and was the focus of attention for the media.

Phuoc Sang was doing business in Saigon theater and Long Van dance floor at that time, he invested heavily in Ly Thu Thao as the owner of Miss Saigon restaurant..

When the beautiful Ly Thu Thao was photographed and blackmailed by her maid, Phuoc Sang was the one who was always by her side and encouraged her, even when the case was tried publicly in public.

However, for their own reasons, Ly Thu Thao and Phuoc Sang went their separate ways.

After many events, Ly Thu Thao chose a peaceful life, away from the market. Although later, when recalling the golden but turbulent period, Ly Thu Thao was calm enough and thought that all was predestined.

At the age of fifty, the once-popular beauty still retains her youthful beauty. She revealed that she is living happily with her husband and son in the US.

During the years away from home, Ly Thu Thao had a few quiet visits to Vietnam, but very few people knew about it and the beauty did not like to share information about herself. She still has a family in Vietnam with her two older sisters and later her husband's family. Those quiet visits like shuttles also help her ease the nostalgia for her hometown because of the hearts of expatriates, who do not love the place where the umbilical cord is buried. Ly Thu Thao is no exception. It is not wrong to call Ly Thu Thao Miss "mysterious" because her life is still a secret door that she does not want to recall the past.

In 2014, after 25 years of coronation, Ly Thu Thao suddenly reappeared as a judge of the contest "Ho Chi Minh City Beauty". On this night, Ly Thu Thao handed over the crown to her successor, Vo Thi Quynh Dang.

Currently, the beauty of Sai Thanh is living a happy life with her husband and son in the US and she mainly does business in beauty services.

"Satisfied with my family. It's very warm and happy" is all that encapsulates when Ly Thu Thao talks about her current life after nearly 3 decades of rising to glory with many ups and downs. wind.​
