Khanh Ly to perform in Vietnam in December
|
|
VietNamNet Bridge – A representative of the HCM City-based Dong Dao Night Club has confirmed that the well-known singer will perform in Vietnam.
On September 25, many newspapers reported that senior singer Khanh Ly was licenced by the Performing Arts Agency to sing in Vietnam later this year.
Specifically, she will have the opportunity to serve the domestic audience through four programs organized by the Dong Dao Entertainment Co., Ltd. in Hanoi, Danang and Ho Chi Minh City in November.
However, in the morning of September 26, some overseas sources quoted Khanh Ly as saying that from now until the Lunar New Year, she will be busy with overseas shows and she did not know about shows in Vietnam.
According to these sources, from now to the end of this year, Khanh Ly will focus on producing a CD & DVD of anthems and activities to celebrate her 50-year singing career.
VietNamNet had contacted Mr. Nguyen Ngoc Son, the owner of the Dong Dao Night Club and the Dong Dao Entertainment Co., Ltd. to verify the information.
Son confirmed that Khanh Ly – “the best female singer of Trinh Cong Son’s songs” will perform in Vietnam.
"Actually, we cannot identify the specific time yet because we have to wait for the license. If nothing changes, we will hold four shows in Hanoi, Danang and Ho Chi Minh City, as everyone has known," said Son.
Son said that the information of overseas sources is inaccurate and unreliable. And if singer Khanh Ly really made that statement, perhaps she was pressured by many causes.
According to Son, the shows will likely take place on December, not November as the local press has reported. The guest singers will be still Tuan Ngoc, Elvis Phuong and Ha Anh Tuan.
