Used to earn more than 1 gold tree every night

Also because she was too immersed in the role, she received many criticisms and disparages from the audience. Instead of being sad, Thoai My considers it a proud career achievement: "Many times while filming, people call me evil, I like it very much, I like to hear someone say, 'This lady plays a role. evil or scary." To me, hearing those curse words means that my role has been successful.

In the heyday of the profession, Thoai My once earned more than 1 gold tree per show night. The female artist said that she is proud because from her youth to the age of 50, she still has a stable show. One day, she ran 3-4 shows from early morning until late at night. Despite the hardships, Thoai My secretly thanked the Ancestors for allowing me to sing and live with a persistent profession for many years.

Health deteriorated, had to go to the US for treatment

Although there are more or less economic sacrifices in terms of salary, clothing, etc., she tries to reduce the collective burden and have enough money to take care of the brothers in the group.

At the age of 53, Thoai My said that her health deteriorated after many years of working. In addition to a congenital heart disease, she suffered from severe joint problems due to a previous performance accident.

"I have operated many times, but my age is getting older and weaker. Every time I perform a lot, I dance a lot, I am easy to get injured. The doctor advised me to replace my leg joint soon, if not treated in time, there will be a problem. I am at risk of paralysis, but this option may prevent me from performing classical plays. I try to go anywhere or go there, if it's the end, I have to accept it", she confided.

In the past few years, she has been fortunate to find happiness in the late afternoon with her overseas Vietnamese boyfriend.

Voice America now wants nothing more than a peaceful life. My love for her is still strong, but above all, I feel comfortable because I am not bound by marriage or the obligation to be a wife. The boyfriend understands and respects her, so both are content with the relationship of love and soul mate. She also did not put pressure on both of them about the future. For her, a person by her side to take care, encourage, and share sorrows and joys is enough.

"I'm unlucky in love, so I never thought of getting on a flower car again. If I love someone, I want both of them to see each other as soulmates, but it's good. At this age, there are things more important than a title. ", she says.
