Mai Phuong Thuy - Miss Vietnam 2006

















Mai Phương Thúy (August 6, 1988) was crowned the 10th Miss Vietnam at the Vinpearl Resort in Nha Trang, Vietnam on August 26, 2006. At 1.84m, she is the tallest Miss Vietnam up until now. She represented Vietnam at the Miss World 2006 pageant in Warsaw, Poland on September 30th, in the Asia-Pacific group. She made the first cut In Miss World 2006 by winning the viewers' votes around the world.


She had posed for photographs late in 2007 for the photographer Tran Huy Hoan, the set is described as "nude photos" - perhaps artistic but still risque for a "Miss Vietnam". Tran Huy Hoan has sold oil paintings of a nude lady which bear a likeness to Mai Phương Thúy. She supports numerous social causes, notably the Vietnamese traffic problem. She is the goodwill ambassador for the Asia Injury Prevention Foundation. She studied at Phan Dinh Phung high school and was accepted into the Foreign Trade University and RMIT International University, Vietnam. Mai Phuong Thuy is studying at RMIT Vietnam at the moment. She would have been crowned Miss Vietnam 2008 on August, 2008, in Hoi An, Quang Nam, but she left the Miss Vietnam 2008 contest on August 23, 2008, supposedly due to conflicts with the organizing board.
