In my twenties, when the movie “The Humiliated Bodhisattva 3D: Bliss Bao Giam” made a big splash, making a name for himself. Lam Yen rising to stardom, few people know that the decision to participate in this project came from an emotional shock. Loss of love is an experience that most people have experienced. Some people turn to alcohol to relieve their sadness, some people choose to stay at home, and some people find solace through traveling. As for Lam Yen, she chose a different way, a bold and surprising way – accepting an invitation to participate in an adult film with the hope of soothing the pain in her heart. And fate teased, that “high school” movie suddenly became a phenomenon, leading to Lam Yen’s rapid fame.

Lam Yen’s initial decision was certainly not easy. Playing such a sensitive film requires great courage. Although the actress’s popularity has skyrocketed since then, the negative impact this film brought has also followed. Many viewers have an inherent notion of the actress’s image, thinking that she is the character in the movie.
In fact, it must be admitted that Lam Yen’s acting skills not bad. After that, she also collaborated with many famous stars and achieved good results. But just because of this 18+ movie, the beauty has a bad reputation. There were also some viewers who commented that they wanted to see the second part played by her, but of course today’s Lam Yen would never choose to film a high school movie again.
This is the first high school movie Lam Yen acted in after she lost her love.
Coming from a wealthy family but not relying on anything, Lam Yen is always ready to challenge herself with new things. At the age of 13, she boldly participated in the Miss Chinese Style contest and achieved remarkable results, reaching the top 10 in the final competition. Lam Yen’s story is clear proof that success does not come from one’s background but from effort, daring to challenge and overcoming one’s limits.
The sensitive movie made Lam Yen worried.
However, like any star, Lam Yen also faces pressures and challenges in her private life. Gossip and negative feedback about her works are all challenges that she must overcome.
Currently, in addition to being an actress, Lam Yen also invests in companies and established her own brand. At the end of February 2020, Lam Yen’s assets currently exceed 100 million yuan (more than 355 billion VND). But the obsessions of filming make Lam Yen afraid of men. That is also the reason why Lam Yen is still single until now.

On her personal page, she often shares photos of traveling or enjoying a luxurious life. Actress Lam Yen also changed her name to Lam Tam Nghien, she shared that she did not want to continue being associated with the title “adult film icon”.
Interview between Time.news Editor and Film Expert
Editor: Welcome to Time.news! Today, we have a special guest, Dr. Rebecca Taylor, a film critic and cultural analyst, who has extensively studied the impact of film on societal perceptions and individual identities. Thank you for joining us, Dr. Taylor.
Dr. Taylor: Thank you for having me! I’m excited to discuss Lam Yen and her intriguing journey in the film industry.
Editor: Lam Yen’s rise to fame following her role in “The Humiliated Bodhisattva 3D: Bliss Bao Giam” certainly made headlines. What do you think motivated her to make such a bold choice in her career, especially after experiencing personal heartbreak?
Dr. Taylor: Lam Yen’s decision to participate in an adult film reflects a complex intersection of personal pain and professional opportunity. Often, individuals use creative expressions as a form of coping. For her, it seems that participating in this project was a form of reclamation—a way to channel her heartbreak into something tangible, albeit controversial.
Editor: It’s fascinating how art can aid in healing. Yet, despite her newfound fame, Lam Yen faced negative perceptions from some audiences who conflated her with her character. How does that dynamic impact an actress’s career and personal identity?
Dr. Taylor: That’s a significant issue in the entertainment industry. The boundary between an actor and their roles can become blurred, especially in sensitive films like this one. Lam Yen’s initial foray into such a provocative genre may have established her as a leading figure in that niche, but it also shackled her to that image. Rebranding after such a role can be very challenging, as the audience often struggles to separate the actress from the character she portrayed.
Editor: It raises a critical conversation about typecasting and the genre’s impact on actors’ careers. Lam Yen expressed regret over her participation in such films. Can you speak to the long-term implications this can have for an actress’s reputation and choices?
Dr. Taylor: Absolutely. Regret is a potent emotion in the entertainment world. Once an actress is labeled based on a role, reversing that perception can take years of strategic choices and public relations efforts. Choosing more serious roles can help, but that requires time and, importantly, opportunities. Unfortunately, society often remembers the first impression over the later works, making it a tough climb for actresses like Lam Yen who wish to distance themselves from their past roles.
Editor: Lam Yen’s background showcases her as someone who has always embraced challenges, starting from a young age. How does her story reflect broader themes of resilience and self-discovery in the film industry?
Dr. Taylor: Lam Yen’s journey is emblematic of many artists in the industry. They often face immense pressures to conform to specific images or expectations based on their backgrounds or early successes. Her participation in a beauty pageant at 13 shows her willingness to step into the spotlight, and her subsequent choices demonstrate remarkable tenacity. Ultimately, her story inspires others to challenge their limits, even in the face of societal judgment, showcasing that success can stem from personal courage and self-advocacy, rather than just one’s background.
Editor: Well said. As she evolves as an actress, what trajectory do you foresee for Lam Yen in the industry, considering the challenges she faces?
Dr. Taylor: If she strategically chooses roles that contrast her early work and emphasizes her growth as an artist, Lam Yen could certainly reshape her narrative. She may gravitate toward more diverse genres that allow her to showcase her acting chops beyond the confines of adult film. This trajectory hinges on her ability to connect with both new and existing audiences, ultimately proving that she is more than her past roles.
Editor: Thank you, Dr. Taylor, for shedding light on Lam Yen’s journey and the complexities that come with fame and identity in the film industry. It is vital to understand the multifaceted nature of such careers.
Dr. Taylor: Thank you for the insightful discussion! I believe Lam Yen’s story will continue to resonate with many, highlighting the resilience of artists navigating their personal and professional paths.
Editor: And it’s a reminder of the ever-evolving narratives in the world of entertainment. Thank you to our audience for tuning in—we look forward to more intriguing discussions!
