Singer Jack (real name Trinh Tran Phuong Tuan) was born in 1997 in Ben Tre, also known by his stage name J97. Jack had a series of hits that "made waves" in the years 2019 - 2020 when he started releasing Bach Van, Hong nhan, Song Gio...
Jack was once compared and expected to break through like many "talented" musicians who composed, sang, and participated in production such as Phan Manh Quynh, Son Tung M-TP... However, the turmoil began to happen when Jack and K-ICM (companies) had a conflict at the end of 2019 about dividing interests, and in the end, Jack left K-ICM's company.
The noise that occurred to singer Jack came from many sides, and when the crisis was not handled thoroughly and completely, it led to a "huge" situation.
Every time there is a new scandal, public opinion will recall the scandal that happened to Jack throughout his career. It was because of the accumulation crisis that this male singer's career struggled, lasting for many years.
In 2021, Jack was accused of "catching fish many times" and having relationships with many girlfriends, including abandoning his girlfriend Thien An when she had a child with the male singer. Thien An is known for playing the female lead role in Jack's MV series.
The case of being accused of "catching fish with many hands" officially opened the source of a series of crises that accumulated throughout singer Jack's career.
For many years, Jack was accused by Thien An of not paying child support, not fulfilling his responsibilities to his daughter... For this, the male singer was heavily criticized, called for a boycott, and even mocked with many names with negative meanings about spending child support. Every time the male singer released an MV, he was criticized for not having money to raise children, but spending a lot of money to make the MV.
Recently, on the evening of May 26, Facebook of J97 Entertainment Company Limited (District 1, Ho Chi Minh City) announced information that singer Trinh Tran Phuong Tuan had filed a lawsuit with a competent court to determine the father-son relationship with baby T.N.U.D.
Jack's side said that the male singer "has not been able to approach or take care of his daughter since the end of 2024. Thien An ended contact, prevented Jack from visiting his child, all his wishes and essential care were pushed to the limit allowed".
In addition, Jack also announced that he will publicize financial obligations so that the public can have a multi-dimensional view.
This move by singer Jack has fueled endless controversies on online forums about the noisy relationship between the male singer and his ex-girlfriend over the past 4 years.
Many people questioned why it was only now that Jack spoke up about the incident? How has Jack's career been affected by the scandal with his ex-girlfriend?
In fact, the scandal with Thien An was just one of many media crises of singer Jack. The conflicts with K-ICM have also been quiet for a long time with many speculations about conflicts of economic interests and the singer's unfair playful behavior. In addition, Jack has conflicts with many showbiz personals, not just K-ICM.
In 2023, Jack was involved in a scandal when Mr. Pham Ngoc Quoc Cuong accused him of using a false image of Messi when promoting the MV Tu where I was born. The lawsuit between the two brought up countless tragedies about Jack being connected by Mr. Cuong to meet Messi for a few seconds, but then Jack included the image of the Argentine superstar in the MV without being able to publicly disclose the procedures for asking for permission to play.
The final controversy and arguing could not reach a clear conclusion, and the unanswered questions were not answered. Because most of the noisy cases related to Jack have not been resolved thoroughly, clearly, specifically, and have even been prolonged, leading to many rumors over the years, the crisis has been accumulated, causing the male singer's career to stagnate from 2021 to present.
