Phuong Thanh's family is celebrating their first Tet in their newly renovated Ho Chi Minh City townhouse, a project that took nearly one year. The singer shared that the kitchen was designed to be more spacious, allowing her to cook frequently when she is home. She also added a studio room, convenient for recording and producing music. The nearly 200 square meter home in Phu Nhuan ward will also serve as a gathering place for her close friends and colleagues.

"My mother is 90 years old this year; though she lives in the city, her heart always longs for the countryside," Phuong Thanh stated. "Seeing my mother and daughter comfortable in this new space, enjoying life, brings me such peace."

According to the singer, her family motivates her to work hard and be creative in her singing career. As her mother ages and her daughter grows up, she recognizes the value of family bonds, focusing more on her family than before.

In 2025, Phuong Thanh was active in both music and film. She released several personal projects, including "Me cung 79" and "Me thien nhien", and collaborated with Phan Dinh Tung on "Thu cuoi". She also acted in the film project "Ba ke con nghe", which received positive feedback from audiences.

Currently, Phuong Thanh embraces a quieter lifestyle, seeking peace with her loved ones and pursuing her passions. On days without performances, the artist often wakes early to shop for groceries, prepares lunch for her mother, then focuses on work or recording. She also prioritizes gym workouts to maintain her health, ensuring a long singing career.

What brings her peace of mind is her 21-year-old daughter, affectionately known as Ga, who is now independent. The singer states she doesn't feel pressured to earn a lot of money, as she no longer desires a lavish lifestyle. Her income from singing and acting is sufficient to cover her living expenses. Her joy comes from seeing her family healthy and her daughter well-behaved.

Specializing in pop-rock music, she is associated with hits like "Khi giac mo ve" (Duc Tri), "Gia tu di vang" (Nguyen Duc Trung), and "Trong vang" (Quoc Hung). She has also served as a judge for numerous competitions and game shows, and ventured into acting with films such as "De muon", "Khi dan ong co bau", "Nu hon than chet", and "Hot boy noi loan". The singer is a single mother with a 21-year-old daughter, and currently lives with her mother.
