Lam Truong's hit song 'Katy Katy' muse revealed

The inspiration behind the hit song ‘Katy Katy’ has been revealed after more than 20 years. The song, composed by Duc Tri and performed by singer Lam Truong, was released in the early 2000s.

Van Khanh, a friend of composer Duc Tri, was identified in 2024 as the ‘muse’ of the track. The song was originally written as a comforting gift for Khanh during a period of emotional distress regarding her romantic life. Khanh first appeared publicly in connection to the song during a 2024 musical performance by Duc Tri, where she expressed her gratitude to the composer.
