In Ho Chi Minh City, May 24, 2025, in the elegant setting of Galleria Center, the “Shine Your Influence” Workshop officially kicked off, marking the beginning of the training series within the framework of Miss & Mister Celebrity Vietnam 2025. More than just a program on influencer development and personal branding, the event served as a high-level convergence of strategic thinking, real-world experience, and international connections with visionary impact.
When “influence” becomes a civil power
In contrast to the fleeting virality of social media, “influence” in the new context is no longer a race for visibility, but a journey to define one’s identity, mindset, and sustainable value system. The “Shine Your Influence” Workshop set a new standard for what it means to be a celebrity—where charisma stems not only from appearance, but is built on intellectual depth, the ability to connect with communities, and a long-term vision.
The workshop highlighted the spirit of the “Celebrity Warrior”—a new-generation beauty warrior who embodies strength, self-awareness, and purpose. Rather than chasing superficial perfection, the workshop inspired individuals to dig deep into their inner substance, shaping a style and influence strategy that is consistent, compelling, and profoundly authentic.
Training space for mindsets of courage
One of the key highlights that elevated the value of the program was the presence of leading speakers—individuals who not only hold influence across multiple platforms but also represent excellence in their respective fields.
Hosting the program was MC Ha Bich Ngoc – Universal Woman Vietnam 2025 and Mrs. Celebrity International 2023. With her confident charisma and professional hosting style, she created an inspiring atmosphere of connection throughout the workshop. In addition, the real-life insights shared by guest speakers such as Mr. Vu Thai – Chairman of Crystal Star and Miss & Mister Celebrity Vietnam, Ms. Hoang Kim Chi – Miss Eco Vietnam 2024, Dan Chi – 1st Runner-up Miss Culture Friendship International 2025, actor/singer Anson Chen, Mr. Lam Tri Thuan – CEO of GVN Academy, and Mr. Gavin Nguyen – representative of TikTok Southeast Asia, provided practical, diverse, and strategic perspectives on the journey of building personal influence.
Through live dialogue, each guest not only shared their personal journey but also conveyed foundational lessons in mastering social media, crafting creative content, and elevating personal value in the digital era.
Affirming courage and navigating personal media
The workshop did not stop at inspiring theories—it moved into practice with a livestream challenge supported by iDr.Skin, a specialized cosmeceutical brand for Vietnamese skin. In this segment, contestants were required to immediately apply the knowledge they had just learned in a live presentation, showcasing their ability to create content, present with poise, and communicate effectively with the public. Whether they hesitated, stood confidently, or had a breakthrough moment, each contestant revealed their unique media persona and level of maturity.
Notably, the event also witnessed the signing of a strategic partnership between Crystal Star Entertainment and Clover Vietnam, a Korean entertainment company known for training a new generation of livestream idols. This partnership marks a strategic step in elevating training quality and establishing a strong international connection, bringing Miss & Mister Celebrity Vietnam closer to global standards in identifying and developing influential talents.
Miss & Mister Celebrity Vietnam: Where images are transformed into missions
“Shine Your Influence” was not just a workshop—it marked the beginning of a comprehensive journey to develop influencer mindsets throughout Miss & Mister Celebrity Vietnam 2025. Organized by Crystal Star Entertainment, the competition has long established its credibility in continuously expanding the standards of beauty—from appearance to intellect, from personal branding to social roles.
Crystal Star Entertainment also expressed sincere gratitude to its strategic partners who have accompanied the program: iDr.Skin, a rising icon in the cosmeceutical industry, and GAC Motor, an international automobile brand. These partners contributed not only material value but also affirmed the elite caliber of an event in tune with the times.
From the spotlight at Galleria Center that day, a powerful message resonated: influence is not a privilege of the majority, but a choice for those who act with purpose. And Miss & Mister Celebrity Vietnam 2025 will be the platform for those who dare to step into the light—not just to shine, but to lead.
