Who is
Vivian Phong Ngo?
Vivian’s Phong Ngo’s (Fong - No) music feels like a future that was supposed to exist.
Remember the utopian, chrome-soaked optimism of Y2K? The world of Michelle Branch, Vanessa Carlton, when pop songs were simply just, a girl, a guitar and piano mixed with some addictive melodies that made you feel like you were sitting on a beach?
Somewhere along the way, that timeline fractured. The promise faded.
Now, in a world where AI is plotting a takeover of the music industry, a girl from Garden Grove, California (down the street from Disneyland, Viv went to the same school district as Gwen Stefani) stands between real human written pop music and collapse.
Vivian, the daughter of two Vietnamese refugees, lives a double life. Yes you've heard this story told by Hannah Montana, and its the same exact life thats being lived by Vivian.
By day, she’s a data analyst at a tech company and a first-generation Ivy League graduate. By night, she’s a pop star. Taking over the tiktok algorithm in Germany. (iykyk the lore)
In the summer of 2025, Vivian posted a song called “the weather” on TikTok. It quickly amassed over 650,000 views and thousands of comments from people asking the same questions: Who is she? And where can we hear more?
Vivian’s rise isn’t a slow climb up the charts. It’s volatile. One day, you’ve never heard her name.
The next, you’re deep inside a cult-energy Discord chat, fully locked in.
This isn’t just music, it’s a glitch in the timeline.
“The craziness leading up to that moment and the fog of the night. Love drunk is such an awesome term that Vivian coined, that for me is like, you could be drunk, you could be having the time of your life and what not, but the feeling of being ‘love drunk’ would be an entirely different feeling, even if you’re sober it feels like you are still on.”
