Hanoi [Vietnam], April 20: Appearing on the show 'Tween Garden', Cam - Duy Manh's daughter - admitted that she has had unhappy moments and sulked at her parents. However, the 10X singer believes that these are just cute childish emotions.
Appearing as a guest on the Tween Garden program , singer Cam - Duy Manh 's daughter - had an interesting conversation with Ali Thuc Phuong. The two discovered common interests such as a passion for stickers and watching cartoons on television.
In addition, singer Cam shared a story about her childhood with her mother. The singer, born in 2000, said that when she was very young, she was angry with her mother for a week because she wasn't allowed to have her favorite toy. Afterwards, the two reconciled, and Cam apologized to her mother for her stubbornness. However, looking back, she still wants to "get revenge" for that childhood moment.
Furthermore, Cam surprised Ali Thuc Phuong by revealing that singer Duy Manh initially didn't want his daughter to pursue a singing career. "Growing up surrounded by music and witnessing my father's experiences in the arts inspired me. And of course, I felt pressure because my parents had very high expectations. Actually, before, my father didn't want me to become a singer; he wanted me to be a piano teacher. However, a cosmic signal in my heart urged me to follow this path. I love music so much, I want to dance, sing, and express myself," the " Sory My Honey " singer confided.
