Wang Fei is always one of the different artists of Chinese showbiz. She is famous for her cold, taciturn appearance, but behind that image is a person who lives quite simply, frankly and comfortably, especially when with familiar people.
Recently, Vuong Phi attracted attention when appearing at her best friend Na Anh's concert in Beijing. When singing the song "Tam Tuong Uoc" with everyone, she was so moved that she tilted her head to lean on the shoulder of male MC Ly Duy Gia next to her.
The moment only lasted a few seconds but quickly caused controversy online, when some people said that this action lacked boundaries with the opposite sex.
However, according to the media, those who understand Faye Wong all realize that this is simply her natural reaction when she is with friends. In the private room of the concert that day, there were more than 50 artists, the light was quite dim and Li Weijia has been Faye Wong's fan for many years. The two also did not live alone but sat among a group of close friends.
Notably, Ly Duy Gia has publicly expressed his love for Vuong Phi many times. Once, through Ton Hao, Vuong Phi actively proposed to befriend him on WeChat, but Ly Duy Gia refused. He said he wanted to be "a little closer to the work, a little further away from his private life".
Many years later, Vuong Phi actively relied on the role of someone who once refused to be friends with her. This story partly shows Vuong Phi's personality: when she considers someone as a friend, she does not pay too much attention to the rules or the way outsiders perceive the relationship.
Another story told by Cu Dinh in the program "Mao Tuyet Uong" also shows the special attraction of Vuong Phi. Many years ago, when playing mahjong with Na Anh and Cu Dinh, Vuong Phi accidentally played a card that Cu Dinh could use to ù. But Cu Dinh did not dare to play the card because Vuong Phi was her idol.
It is worth mentioning that Cu Dinh was once Ly A Bang's ex-girlfriend - Vuong Phi's ex-husband. Despite having a romantic relationship in the past with the same man, Cu Dinh can still comfortably sit with Vuong Phi, because between them there seems to be no complex boundaries that outsiders often imagine.
Vuong Phi is also not someone who tries to build a perfect image in front of the public. Luu Gia Linh once revealed that the female singer is not very good at mahjong but is very competitive. Winning makes her happy, losing cannot hide her emotions. Truong Quoc Vinh once teased that people can comment on how she sings, but don't criticize her for playing bad mahjong.
In gatherings with friends, Vuong Phi often wears bare face, loose clothes, and simple loose hair. She comfortably chats, takes photos and shows intimacy with acquaintances. That image is completely different from the quiet, somewhat distant female singer on stage.
This personality is also clearly shown in the way Vuong Phi faces unexpected situations. When the audience threw a water bottle onto the stage at a concert in Jinan, she frankly said if she continued to throw it, she would go home. During a tour, when her shoes did not fit, she was willing to take off her shoes and sing barefoot for the whole program.
In an interview in 2002, Nicholas Tse - Wang Fei's current boyfriend - once commented that the female singer is a person with a "rare kind heart".
Nicholas Tse's sharing about Faye Wong after more than 2 decades is still recalled by many people. Behind the image of the seemingly unapproachable goddess is Faye Wong who lives quite instinctively, valuing her emotions and comfort.
She does not try to live according to the standards set by others. Perhaps that is also what makes Vuong Phi, after many years in showbiz, still maintain her own uniqueness that is very difficult to replace.
