After the performance at the Lan Song Xanh awards ceremony, singer Phuong My Chi became the focus of discussion on social networks when a part of the audience believed that her performance had many similarities with Jennie (Blackpink)'s performance at an international stage before. The comparisons mainly revolved around the image of wearing glasses when performing, standing on a high platform and the dance arrangement of the dancers below.
Faced with mixed reactions, Phuong My Chi officially spoke out on her personal page. The female singer admitted that the recent performance may have created unwanted associations, causing the audience to question the uniqueness of her artistic style. She said that this is not the direction she pursues in the process of building her own image and musical values.
According to the sharing of the singer born in 2003, the past time has been a period when she actively experimented with many new colors, from music to form of performance on stage. Reinventing herself sometimes leads to risks, including the possibility of unintentionally creating a feeling of image duplication. Phuong My Chi affirmed that she will seriously re-examine so that subsequent products have a clearer personal imprint.
Regarding the controversial performance, the female singer also apologized to the audience for bringing an incomplete experience. She said that she and the crew had agreed not to continue posting any more content related to the performance on social networking platforms, in order to avoid prolonging arguments.
Chi takes responsibility for the feelings that the recent performance brought. This is something Chi does not want in her career journey. Chi and the crew will seriously learn from experience so that the following products can more clearly express personality and individual values," the female singer shared.
After the public apology move, many opinions said that experimentation is inevitable for young artists. However, this story also raises a clearer requirement to preserve personal identity in the context of increasingly strong performance trends in the music market.
