Early life and education
Hà Anh was born on 10 April 1982 by her mother Lệ Hà, a journalist. She has a younger sister Hà Mi born seven years later and a similar-aged cousin named Đốm. When she was nine, her grandmother gave her Michael Jackson's album Dangerous, sparking her a love for music. She studied at Hanoi – Amsterdam High School in Vietnam and abroad at Broomsgrove School in England. At the age of 18, Ha Anh started working as a model at MOT Models in England, which is considered the starting point of her artistic career.[3] She claimed that during her freshman year at the University of Reading, she was persuaded by her employer and mother to pursue becoming a fashion model. However, despite what she said, many people found out that she did not go to the University of Reading but a small English school which was bought by University of Reading later on. She has yet to completed the education program to earn the graduation diploma as well.

Ha Anh was spotted by MOT Models from “Best Potential Model” and “Face of Asia” contest in London. Ha Anh has claimed that she has profound experience in gracing many major fashion shows, especially lingerie ones organized at London Fashion Week, Paris Fashion Week, New York Fashion Week, Hongkong Fashion Week, Shanghai Fashion Week; being the exclusive face for lingerie brands such as Rosy Paris, DKNY, formerly Redken Tribe; taking photoshoot for luxury fashion houses (such as Chloé, Gucci) and other renowned brands (including Lynx Clothing, Tony & Guy). She was invited to attend the New York Fashion Times and the launch event of the 20th America's Next Top Model in California, USA.[4] However, according to many fashion experts, with her physical characteristics, Ha Anh hardly has any opportunities to rock the haute couture runways. In addition, the Supermodel also has no pictures or the other alternative evidence to convince the public of such self-claiming career achievements whatsoever. Hence, a broad section of the public started to call her a "Holy Boaster" aka "Thánh nổ" in Vietnamese. [5]
Ha Anh was chosen to replace Huong Giang at the Asian Top Fashion Model of the Year award in China's Asian Fashion 2010 award system and reached the final top 5 of the award.[6]

Ha Anh is the first Vietnamese Supermodel to appear on the prestigious international Fashion TV channel Star World in 2015 as a special guest and Host of the Style Setter program thanks to her fluent English.[7]
She also worked as the general director of the catwalk for the once famous "Thoi Trang & Nhan Vat" Series and other fashion shows featuring local and internationak brands in Vietnam.
Beauty contests
She represented Vietnam at Miss Earth 2006 in the Philippines.In May 2008, she participated in the first Miss Universe Vietnam. She ended up being ranked 10th but shocked both the audiences and the organizing committee by quickly heading straight to the backstage instead of staying and cheering for the contestants who made it to top 5. She continued to participated in various contests and finally earned the 2nd Runner-Up of Miss Vietnam Global in 2008.[8]
Musical
Her first public appearance as a singer was at Miss Earth 2006. On 28 November 2011, her first single was released as a DVD at Harper's Bazaar magazine. Her music video, Model (Take My Picture), is criticized for being provocative and low quality.Three days later, Hà Anh promoted herself in a minishow called It's Me, Hà Anh at the Park Hyatt Hotel.[7] On 6 April 2012, Hà Anh held a second mini-show in Hanoi entitled From the Very Start, to release her eponymous second single.
