The moments you don't see ...

Concerts are a thrill. Nothing can replace being on stage, but it's everything attached to leading you onto that stage which adds to the thrill. I was able to have two wonderful people in Saigon help me out in capturing these moments just before my concert with the Ho Chi Minh Symphony Orchestra last month in celebrating 40 years of diplomatic relations between Australia and Vietnam.

Here is a selection of many from the night. Thank you to Phan Vo for capturing these stills:

dress: Valenciani by Adrian Anh Tuan | make up & hair: Vuong Lam from Dior

Vuong will not be happy. He told me to 'not show teeth when smiling' because the red lip accentuates how wide my mouth is. haha

On stage.

Can't go wrong with YSL
