Artist Trang Thanh Xuan: She is very popular, she sells lottery tickets in her old age, rents 6m2 at home, and spends no more than 10 thousand a day.

The late life of female artist Trang Thanh Xuan makes many people very sad when at the age of 71 she still has to stay in a cramped motel with only 6m2 and each meal is only about 10 thousand VND.

When it comes to artists, people will probably think of the luxury, glamour, or wealth of the profession, but no one thinks of the artist's life, which also has rich people and poor people.

When the youth has passed and the golden age is gone, not all artists are fortunate to have a stable life, that is also the life of a talented but unlucky female artist - Trang Thanh Xuan.

Trang Thanh Xuan's real name is Dao Thi Thanh Xuan, born in 1952 in Ho Chi Minh City, in a poor family of artists whose parents both follow the troupe. At the age of 20, Thanh Xuan sang lead vocals on several stages.

Artist Trang Thanh Xuan is a famous singer with a beautiful voice that captivates people's hearts with a lovely face. She used to be one of the popular cai luong vocalists in the 1970s, at the same time as artists Minh Vuong, Bach Le, Thanh Kim Hue, etc. Trang Thanh Xuan was mentioned most often as Bach Thanh. Nga in the play Blood stained the temple yard sang with Minh Tam and Vu Linh.

At the peak of her career, Trang Thanh Xuan performed in many different big and small stages in the city.

But the glory did not follow Trang Thanh Xuan for long. Because, after 1975, reformed art faced many difficulties. In 1983, the female artist discovered she had a heart condition and was forced to stay away from the limelight.

She said in a choked voice: "I have a heart condition, I can't stand on stage anymore, I have to retire" . Hearing the word "retirement", Kim Tu Long couldn't help but feel heartbroken : "Auntie, I'm also 56 years old this year. I look at her and I don't understand that one day I won't stand on stage anymore. How does it feel?"

As a famous reformed artist, loved by many people in the 80s and 90s, Trang Thanh Xuan's current life is extremely difficult. At an old age, her health is also weak because she has many diseases but no one takes care of her, so she still has to worry about making a living by selling lottery tickets, making the female artist feel sorry for herself.

The late-afternoon life of female artist Trang Thanh Xuan made MC Dai Nghia and the trio of judges "Sing Forever Dream Season 4" touched.

The job of selling lottery tickets and picking up bottles brings in about 60,000 VND per day. Two artist sisters spend 10,000 VND to buy food. In the days of illness, they had to lie down in one place, and the two of them only had white porridge for the day.

She confided: "One day, she can only sell 50 lottery tickets. Artist Thanh Dao, my younger brother, got about 45 because he was too sick to go. On rainy days, he sold very little. The sale did not come. 50 more tickets. Go back to cook the rice cooker, buy 10,000 food and eat through the day."

The legs of the 71-year-old man have osteoarthritis, making it difficult to walk. Currently, she cannot sit normally, but every day walks from her house to Rach Ong market to sell lottery tickets. The motorbike taxi ride costs about 15,000 VND, but unfortunately, both of her sisters walk.

For more than 30 years, she has been walking like that, all over the streets and alleys in Duong Ba Trac Street (District 8) to sell lottery tickets for a living.

Currently, she and her sister are living together in a small, cramped motel of only 6m2 in District 8, Ho Chi Minh City with a monthly rent of 1.7 million dong. The female artist confided: "This room is rented by me and my younger sister artist Thanh Dao, the room is also small. That side is for Miss Thanh Dao and I sleep here, it's also very short. When lying down, I have to give it to her. Here's the leg."

The life of these two lonely old people is still temporary, when they have a little extra money, they can buy rice and eat, otherwise they eat charity bread. Even when she was so hungry, she had to beg for food...
