On the evening of January 24, the 2023 Green Wave Awards ceremony took place at Hoa Binh Theater (HCMC), honoring artists and music products with outstanding achievements in the past year.
Notably, at this year’s awards ceremony, singer Phuong My Chi surpassed Vu Phung Tien, Phao and Rhyder, winning the Outstanding New Face category. Stepping onto the stage to receive the award, the female singer sobbed and thanked the audience.
She also made the audience laugh when she was “half joking, half serious” and said she was a bit surprised that she had been working in the arts for more than a decade and received an award for a new face.
This is also an issue that concerns many audiences. On social networks, many people also expressed their confusion, because they do not understand why Phuong My Chi, who has been singing for more than 10 years and is a familiar name to Vietnamese audiences, was nominated in the Face category. New excellent.
Regarding this, the Organizing Committee said that the award’s criteria is to recognize the achievements of artists in the field of youth music and 2023 is the first year that Phuong My Chi has a successful youth music song.
The Organizing Committee also shared that not only Phuong My Chi but also Vu Phung Tien, Phao and Rhyder have been active in the arts for many years, but only this year were nominated by Green Wave in this category.
In addition, many people also expressed regret, saying that with Phuong My Chi’s “transformation” over the past year, she deserved to receive more than one trophy at this year’s Green Wave awards ceremony.
Previously, Phuong My Chi and her music products had up to 7 nominations at Green Wave 2023, including: Female Singer of the Year, Outstanding New Face, Album of the Year, MV of the Year, Mix Gas, Outstanding Collaboration and Music Producer of the Year (for DTAP).
