Lynda Trang Đài

Lê Quang Quý Trang Đài, also known by the stage name Lynda Trang Đài (Đà Nẵng, 1968), is a Vietnamese American singer.[1][2] She has appeared in many of the Paris By Night shows of Thuy Nga Productions,[3] for example Paris By Night 36, 59, 66, 93, 94 and 100. She is noted as one of the first more provocative Vietnamese-American performers.[4] Her racy costumes and stage antics have earned her the title "the Vietnamese Madonna,"[5] "well established but very controversial" (1999)[6] "notoriously bold veteran" (2005).[7] and so on.[8]
