Ho Quynh Huong to join stage with world stars at Olympics

A music gala will take place in late August to celebrate the 2008 Beijing Olympics, gathering many world stars. Ho Quynh Huong will be the only Vietnamese pop star attending the gala.

Famous artists participating in this gala will be Bi Rain, Jang Nara from South Korea, opera star Andrea Bocelli from Italy, Sarah Brightman from Britain, and two actors, Jackie Chan and Zhang Zyi.

Ho Quynh Huong said she sent some songs in English, Italian and Vietnamese to the organising board and they approved two songs: Love of My Life and Non Stop.

The Vietnamese pop star may be supported by Chinese dancers for her two songs. To prepare for this event, the singer has been studying Chinese. She said she will sing part of a song in Chinese.

Huong will go to Beijing with a few assistants: a make-up artist, a representative who can speak Chinese, an assistant and a cameraman who will shoot all of her activities in China.

The singer said she will go to sports houses to cheer up Vietnamese athletes also.

Huong has visited Beijing several times to seek opportunities for music projects in the future.
