The “Gia Vo Yeu/ Pretense Love” singer was involved in a serious car accident on March 30th leaving Hai Phong city after a late concert.

Yesterday (March 30th) at the Melia Ha Noi Hotel, Hoang Thuy Linh officially introduced her debut  album called “Hoang Thuy Linh Vol. 1” to the public,  as promised.

This weekend, I will have the pleasure of interviewing Australian Idol ’08 Finalist and up-and-coming Vietnamese-Australian musician, Thanh Bui.  He will be in San Jose, CA to perform at the Hat Cho Tuoi Tho 8 Concert, benefiting underprivileged Vietnamese families.

Are you curious to know what his favorite fruit is? Or whether he prefers boxers or briefs? Or perhaps you’re like me and is wondering how he pimps-up his hair? This might be your chance to get them answered!

I will choose the best questions from your suggestions and present them in my interview.  So really, be creative/weird/awkward/whatever, and leave your pressing questions in the comments below.

PS: Thanh Bui can handle it.

Hotboy, Le Huynh Anh (aka Recca, 18) from department 7 of talent agency, MTS (drama Lap Trinh Cho Trai Tim‘s leading male actor, Minh Tiep, is also from the same agency), is a reoccurring face in HaNoi’s teen prints. He has guest starred in TV sitcoms Bo Tu 10a8 & Oshin Chạy Tết and has been featured in countless other T.V. commercials but it won’t be until later this year that we will get to see him on the big screen.
