Kasim Hoang Vu's mother: Broken marriage, sacrificed career, humbled herself for her son

Once known as the "rock queen" of the Central region with her powerful voice and captivating performance style, singer Bich Phuong has experienced many life events, leading to decisions that completely changed her life.

Kasim Hoang Vu was once a singer who left many impressions in the hearts of the audience with a series of love songs such as: Because of you, Sorry, What is left for us, Regret... Among them, the song that reminds me of his name the most is Because of love. Every time the melody of this song plays, the image of the Egyptian-Vietnamese guy with curly hair and a powerful voice comes back to the memories of many music listeners.

However, over the past several years, Kasim Hoang Vu mysteriously "disappeared" from Vietnamese showbiz. He went to America and his singing activities mainly took place on overseas stages.

In 2020, the male singer announced that he had a Vietnamese-American wife and two children. "Kasim has two kids. It seems like they only like playing games, they don't like singing at all, they just sing random things for fun sometimes. But the older one seems to like playing the piano too. Kasim bought a very large piano, sometimes the older one plays it for fun," the male singer shared.

Looking back at the days of building a career in Vpop, Kasim Hoang Vu's success cannot be without the silent sacrifice of his mother - the former "rock queen" Bich Phuong. She was the first person to sow the seeds of musical emotions in her son since he was in the womb, guiding him to pursue his passion for art when he first started his career, giving Kasim Hoang Vu inspiration and fueling the fire for his only son to shine on stage.

A hasty marriage at the age of 20

For Kasim Hoang Vu, his mother is a wonderful woman. When she was young, she was a famous music star, affectionately called the "rock queen" by audiences in the Central region when she often performed on big stages. Perhaps that is why since childhood, Kasim Hoang Vu inherited his mother's "rock quality", which later manifested in both his singing and his way of life.

Despite her acclaimed career, Bich Phuong's marriage at that time was not happy. The "Queen of Rock" said that her decision to marry an Egyptian man - Kasim Hoang Vu's father - at the age of 20 was impulsive. At an inexperienced age, the problems in her marriage turned her from an energetic woman into a miserable woman surrounded by conflicts.

Unable to find a way out of the relationship, Ms. Bich Phuong decided to divorce when Kasim Hoang Vu was still very young and was devastated when the court declared that custody of the child belonged to the paternal family. Later, she confided that the time away from her child, "hearing the child cry but not being able to breastfeed" felt like her heart was being torn apart.

Many years later, Bich Phuong regained custody of her son but did not want to "remarry" because she was afraid that Kasim would have to suffer the fate of a "stepfather". She decided to become a single mother, taking care of and educating her son alone. When Kasim grew up and made his first steps in music, the "rock queen" decided to put her career on hold and step back to become his manager. She understood that the experience she had gained in her career would help her son overcome many temptations and difficulties when pursuing a professional singing career.

There will be no manager who is as devoted to Kasim Hoang Vu as his mother. She takes care of each outfit, diligently stands below to watch her son sing, and enthusiastically takes each photo. During the years accompanying her son, she is always the first person to frankly comment on Kasim's mistakes without fear of the male singer being offended. On the contrary, when Kasim sets rules such as not even his mother is allowed to enter the studio while he is working, Mrs. Bich Phuong does not feel hurt but completely respects her son's opinion.

Absolutely respected by son, willing to "avoid" relatives for mother

Kasim Hoang Vu once said that in his life, his mother is the most important person. The male singer always wants to spend more time with her, making her happy when she is still healthy. To him, his mother has sacrificed too much. Not only that, she is also the singer's boundless pride.

In a program, Kasim Hoang Vu also revealed that his mother is an extremely thoughtful woman. She not only takes care of her son wholeheartedly, but also loves her daughter-in-law very much, considering her as her own flesh and blood. Therefore, the singer of Vi Yeu never has to worry about the "mother-in-law - daughter-in-law" relationship in her family.

At the end of 2020, Kasim angrily declared that he would "avoid" his relatives and be at odds with them when his biological mother was harassed at his grandfather's grave. At that time, the male singer was abroad and could not intervene. Kasim's anger at that time was understandable, because his mother was always the woman he respected and loved the most.

Wholeheartedly care for sick son

Kasim Hoang Vu is currently facing a serious illness. His health condition is currently serious with severe pain that prevents him from sleeping. His gaunt face with a tumor on his left chin is a heartbreaking sight. Despite the pain, Kasim still tries to work at his restaurant, taking painkillers to hold on.

Singer Trizzie Phuong Trinh revealed that Kasim's mother was so desperate that she said: "I gave up my forty-year singing career, sacrificing my own happiness to take care of Kasim because I only have him. Please help me, tell Kasim that he must take care of himself for treatment, don't try to work anymore. Without health, there will be nothing left. I need Kasim, I only have him." Just that much is enough to see how confused and worried the singer's mother is about her son.
