Vietnam's Duc Phuc clinched victory at the Intervision 2025 Song Contest in Moscow, while U.S. representative Vassy was disqualified due to political pressure from the Australian government.
Vietnamese singer Duc Phuc triumphed at the Intervision 2025 Song Contest, held on September 20 in Moscow. His performance of "Phù Đổng Thiên Vương," a song inspired by Vietnamese folklore, earned him first place, as determined by an international jury. The contest featured 23 countries, including China, India, Brazil, and Russia, and was broadcast live to over 4 billion people worldwide.
Notably, U.S. entrant Vassy, an Australian-born singer, was disqualified from the competition. Organizers cited "unprecedented political pressure from the Australian government" as the reason for her withdrawal, although the Australian government has not publicly commented on the matter.
