A Vietnamese female singer is controversial again because of her actions related to Taylor Swift

Recently, Uyen Linh shared two photos of her and My Linh performing in a series of duet shows across Vietnam together. She humorously wrote: "My friends raced to see the show, Adele invited Ed Sheeran. And I went to sing backup for Boss ML every night." Uyen Linh's intention is to "complain" about the fact that many of the singer's friends in March will go see Ed Sheeran when he tours in Southeast Asia or see Adele when she has 10 big shows in Southeast Asia. Germany. Meanwhile, Uyen Linh is content to "sing backup" for her "boss" My Linh.

Everything should have been nothing worth discussing until the audience accidentally... clicked on Uyen Linh's edit history for this post. In the original post, Uyen Linh wrote "Friends raced to see Taylor Swift, Adele, and Ed Sheeran...". In the edited version being displayed on Facebook, the caption line has been changed to: "Friends raced to see the show, Adele even admired Ed Sheeran..." - the name Taylor Swift was immediately deleted.

Surely everyone remembers the "story" of the collision between Uyen Linh and Taylor Swift in the past. At that time, Uyen Linh in a post updating the achievements of her album Portrait called Taylor Swift by the nickname "hao gia snake". This statement brought Uyen Linh countless "criticisms" as well as making her a character who has often been "criticized" by Taylor Swift's fandom in Vietnam over the past few years.

Perhaps that's why Uyen Linh had to hastily delete the name Taylor Swift from her status line? But the truth is certainly difficult to change: Uyen Linh must know very well that there will be a large number of her friends and colleagues who will pack their bags to Singapore in early March to enjoy one of the six shows of Taylor's The Eras Tour. Swift!
