Vietnamese dancer shines on the world stage; bags third place in world championships
HANOI (Vietnam News/ANN): With sparkling costumes, scintillating eyes and an attractive smile, Nguyen Trong Nha Uyen captivated audiences with her powerful, confident, yet delicate dancing style, creating a strong connection. Uyen has made history for Vietnam's dancesport by clinching a bronze medal in the solo Latin category at the WDSF World Championship 2025 in Germany. With this achievement, she has become the first Vietnamese and the first Asian to earn a medal in the category at the global event. The championship, which concluded in Bremen on June 8, drew seasoned and professional athletes from around the world. Standing out among the competitors, Uyen was the sole female representative from Vietnam in the solo Latin event, finishing third out of 96 dancers. Her coach Hoang Thu Trang expressed immense pride. "Uyen is the first Asian athlete to reach the final round and step onto the podium. I am incredibly proud of her and the calibre of our Vietnamese athletes," Trang said. Reflecting on her journey, Uyen said: "When I entered the competition, my only goal was to showcase everything I had practiced. Coach Trang constantly encouraged me to focus and unleash my full potential. After completing my final dance, I was nervous, hoping to be named among the top positions. When that moment arrived, all I felt was pride." Few know that this triumph is the culmination of an arduous journey. Without Trang's guidance, Uyen acknowledged that she would not have reached this pivotal moment in her competitive career. Previously, she competed in mixed doubles, partnering with Phan Hien to secure a gold medal at the 30th SEA Games in dancesport. However, relying on a partner often hindered her quest for peak performance. "The nature of sports dance requires a partner, and throughout my training, I've experienced many. Some partners stayed for five years, while others were only temporary," Uyen said. "Each time I switched partners, it felt like starting over, which was challenging – especially when others advanced while I had to begin anew." Yet, her passion for dancing propelled her forward. "I love the thrill of stepping onto the competition floor, so I sought every opportunity to compete," Uyen added. During her most challenging times, she found a timely ally in Trang, who encouraged her to pursue solo performances. "Once the solo category was introduced by the World DanceSport Federation, I realised Uyen had the potential to conquer major events. I planned her training meticulously, preparing her for both domestic and international competitions, and she consistently delivered outstanding results," Trang said. With the coach's support and her own relentless determination, Uyen embraced the challenges of returning to the starting line, maturing in her craft and reaching new heights. "Uyen has always been eager to stay on the dance floor and pursue new goals. She actively seeks opportunities to grow in her profession," Trang said. The accomplishment at the Bremen event is a testament to her unwavering effort and courage. "When Uyen stepped up to receive her award, I felt an overwhelming sense of pride. I am proud to have detected her potential and guided her to this pinnacle of world sports dance," Trang said. The bronze medal in Germany not only signifies a memorable milestone in Uyen's career but also serves as inspiration for Vietnamese athletes striving to assert themselves on the global stage. Last year, she also excelled at the WDSF World Championship in Bosnia and Herzegovina, finishing eighth out of 102 competitors in the adult solo Latin female category. Uyen, 30, a native of Hanoi, began her journey in dancesport at just seven years old. Now, she continues to teach, judge competitions and compete. Following her historic achievement at the WDSF World Championship, Uyen has quickly returned to training with Trang and other international experts, setting her sights on winning the National Dancesport Championship in October. - Vietnam News/ANN

Chicanjuku: Mexican designer Italia Segovia fuses Chicano culture with Harajuku to create bold, experimental fashion
MEXICO CITY, June 20 — In a leafy park in Mexico City, beside colonial era fountains and food stands, Italia Segovia's designs are turning heads, as usual. A pink ruffled dress with white lace and big bow; a high-school vibe tartan dress tied with a pale yellow shawl imprinted with Mexico's patron saint the Virgin of Guadalupe, all accentuated with loud heavy makeup. Segovia, known to her friends as Kumiko, calls her work Chicanjuku: a fusion of Mexican-American Chicano culture and Japanese Harajuku style, named after the Tokyo district renowned for its bright colored accessories, outlandish makeup, and elaborate hairstyles. 'It's like a food blender of styles,' Segovia said of her designs, which have also become a core part of her identity. Chicano style was popularised by Mexican-Americans in the US who felt out of place in both countries because of their mixed backgrounds, said Segovia. Though she is not Mexican-American, she has several relatives in the US who inspired her deep love for the style she now draws from. Segovia, who has almost 30 thousand followers on Instagram, mashes the oversize shirts, khakis and flat brim caps analogous to Chicano culture with the candy-floss fairy-tale pop of Harajuku. The makeup might include dark lining around the lips and eyeliner that emulates Japanese Geisha style. Mexican designer Italia Segovia. — Reuters pic 'You can always experiment with fashion and art as long as it's from a place of knowledge and respect,' Segovia said. Segovia's distinctive aesthetic has even caught the eye of admirers in Japan. In June, she made special outfits for three Japanese E-Queens, a subculture of electronic music dancers, who she connected with months earlier online. The group met up in Mexico City for a photo shoot and street dance, dressed in Segovia's outfits. 'I love how she uses texture,' said Shirendev Oyun-Erdenen, a Japanese E-Queen who dances under the name Maaya the Bee. 'Helping people feel free to experiment and not be afraid. That's what it's all about,' Segovia said. — Reuters

(Video) KISS OF LIFE's Julie Apologises For Her Controversial Live Birthday Stream
Back in April 2025, K-pop girl group, KISS OF LIFE (키스 오브 라이프), was wrapped up in a controversy following member Julie's (쥴리) birthday livestream. The 'hip-hop themed' event was labelled as cultural appropriation, sparking backlash from netizens. Understandably, fans were not happy about the matter, prompting multiple apologies from the group. On Saturday (31st May 2025), KISS OF LIFE's Julie took the opportunity on an Instagram livestream to once again address the controversy surrounding her birthday live stream. She explains that for the past two months, the group have been reflecting on their actions and how they can be better for their fans in the future. In response to the requests of many fans, Julie addressed specific communities who were affected by the controversy, namely the Black and Latino communities. 'We do understand that we hurt and disappointed a lot of our fans. What we can promise is that we're working hard to be better and show everyone our passion for music, in whatever genre it is', she adds. Julie also touches on the importance for the group to take accountability for the matter and has been striving to educate themselves in order for these issues to never happen again. Fans responded with mixed reactions, with some speculating on the genuineness of her apology. Some pointed out that Julie took too long to address the issue, with no further actions provided to make up for hurting fans. Twitter user @/TayoPSG comments, 'Apologising won't work, set an example for your followers by doing something'. However, some fans also gave their support over the group's apologies. Some also called out hate crimes towards the group following the controversial livestream. Twitter user @/Nljigakulive comments, 'She made a direct apology here to affected communities. The hate and abuse she and the girls have faced over the last few months has been gross, even threats of violence. It needs to stop'. KISS OF LIFE also reportedly pulled out of the upcoming KCON LA 2025 event due to the backlash faced from the incident. While it's hard to say, we hope the group will genuinely reflect on their actions. What do you think about Julie's apology?
