  • Even as the younger modern generation we all must find the time to preserve the best of our cultural ways, skills and talents from our ancestors in order to define who we really are and where we are truly from. Ashley Thao is a good example of what hmong that.

  • hais kwv txhiaj hmoob dawb thiab ma

  • i love ashley thao..im not green but i love her hehe

  • omg love it!:) nice work!!

  • She is really good 

  • who the fuck would dislike this.,?

  • @kingkushLSD dumb wannabe gayass gangbangers would dislioke good music

  • One of the best talent out of all the Hmong Pagent I've seen. Great job Ashlee Thao, keep it up.

  • yeah muas pheeb pride

  • i dont mind if she runs for pageant again lol she got my vote

  • (III)

    But when I HEAR crickets, birds chirping, and leaves and rice stalks rustling against each other, in your 3 minute "demo," in addition to your camera movements (on both the rice stalks in front of Ashley and her) and your short montage attempts (even within this short 3-minute duration), I was immediately impressed by your natural talents for authenticity, realism, creativity, and natural landscape, in addition to meticulate camera work.

  • (II)

    99.8% or so of the socalled films, clips, movies, & travelogues posted on Hmong, by Hmong, are really worthless, although the subjects they originally shot were potentially good, worthy of time and study. First of all, 99.5% of them couldn't shoot worth much; secondly, in post shooting "editing," they inserted 110% junk, unrelated noises in the form of music (which are, by themselves, not bad, utilized in proper contexts) into their footage. It's nauseating.

  • (I)

    The reason I suggested that you do an Ethnographic film --- as opposed to, say, doing just the average directless meandering cliche pieces riddled with unrelated and unwanted cheap songs --- is that by looking at your 3-minute "demo" here, you seemed to have the natural talents to understand filming, in general.

  • Ciajsia, you seemed to be well versed in videography. Perhaps you should consider doing ETHNOGRAPHIC filming/videography. Up until a couple years ago, people had to have those 20lb cameras to get quality pictures; these days 2lb hand-held cameras are almost as good, so doing serious ethnographic films should be easily done. Talents like Ashley Thao's need to be professionally recorded for posterity purposes. Her talents are obvious & her voice is truly exquisite.

  • do you know ashley thao, how can i contact her. i was wondering if she record a couple of txhiaj for me and i will paid her

  • i remember she used to get line up by me n the homes back in 98-99!

  • where can i buy the whole set of this kwv txaj..? movie

  • zoo kawg . tug muam ashley koj puas kaam muab koj cov lug txaj xaa tuaj tsua peb noog hab nab obv?

  • haa, meant her at the party in nc

  • I really love her work. She can still restore a piece of our musical culture. I really giver her more than just credits!

    Ashley. keep up the good work, and spread it.

    NT

  • hey shes my cousin...lol

  • I met her before at a Hmong cultural show. She's amazing. I love these ancient folk songs. I haven't heard green Hmong folk songs in a long long time. Good to hear.

  • Very talented!

  • Leej muam moob

  • how come my other comments aren't coming through?

  • well anyways, my other half was cut off. big fan of ashley and i DEF hate it when others talk smack about her like that.

  • wow.. what a loser Yinny. Okay since you said thats your opinion. Heres my opinion. I think your a foolish dumb ass low life for coming onto youtube and explaining about YOUR brothers PAST. He dont give a fuck because if he did, we would of seen his comment long before yours. Yea the world is all about who is better and all that crap. And its SO fucken obvious if she was put in a big crowd, she be one of the best. Real stuff you say? That is the real shit right here.

  • Uploader should disable comments. =/

  • dude.shes my cuzzin.she DID GRADUATE from her community college..

    TAKE A LOOK AT YOURSELF B4 TALKIN SHIT BEHIND OTHER PP

  • yinny, you must relate to these lyrics because you're a slut yourself... don't you remember who i am.... no, you must have been drunk that nite... muah!

  • Comment removed

  • damn. for someone who sure loves to write a lot of crap, you sure sound like a jealous girlfriend of an ex or something. plus, for someone who sure has an opinion about this site, you sure love coming back all the time though. stupid ignorant people like you and multipeace are just jealous cause she has talents and you don't.

  • btw, this comment was intended for yinny90. cause i'm pretty sure they're gonna be back at this site.

  • some of you little girls need to grow up. hope you don't pass your mouthing to your kids. hopefully you have half the talent she has before you start talking about other peeps. i've got a lollipop for you girls to suck on since it gets so busy. muah!!

  • she is talented and beautiful!

  • ชอบครับ

    ขอบคุณที่แบ่งปันครับผม

  • pshh whatever stupid; lowlifer;

  • This is my OPINION! and for those who keep stating oh this is america and free-country and she has the write to marry or not blah blah blah well this is my freedom to state what i like, under the bill of rights. I am definately not using any physical force so grow-up and be adults and take these criticism as adults!

  • Plus, she is a nice, talented, wonderful, and educated person far beyond you can even imagine. I know this because she is one of my relatives and I've met her a couple times. Our Hmong need more talented people like her but not someone uneducated and mindless like you because you can't even write the correct English. So, shut the fck up talkin craps about other people and R.I.P.

  • wassup people here is a textback to tat azzhole

    yinny90 or MultiPeace09

    Listen to this you stupid-childish mind; when you call someone a low life, basically, you are calling yourself a low life instead. And Ashley is not old at all. In this country and culture, 28 is the perfect age and that is her rights to get married or not.

  • gosh!!! multipeace09 you really are a low life. can't belief you would make fake accounts to tried to hide who you are, but we all know who you are, yinny90,same user.

    oh and ashley thao has far more manners than you will ever have. maybe your parents didnt taught you well enough. learn that you're going way overboard, stop being so full of yourself.

  • I am not fucken MultiPeace09! That' s forsure! who the hell is that person. I told you not only am I the one thinking about the same thing. Just fucken grow up and accept other ppls comments. I am not trying to be mean or anything! REMEMBER! this is a freakin public page! it is open to comments! if the perosn who posted this is unhappy then tell them to delete it!

  • what ashley think she the shit just because she can sing a couple of luj txhaj. plz girl. we need educated women not women who turn to stone-age talents. where is her education? where's her degree? getting thru the current world we are in requires some updated skills, a degree, and past job experiences. wake up and smell the damn coffee!

  • Comment removed

  • wow..thanks for posting up hmoob leeg cov lug txaj....keep up the good work lady and ciaj sia..

  • Her face is fucked up wrinkly...she's such a low-life...get real...stop posting new pics all the time about urself....and start showing some real stuff....do she have a job? did she even graduate from college as sthe stated during the pageant?...what is it that she does...to benefit herself in the long run...that is what we call a rolemodel with an education and goal in this mainstream world (as you ssthao stated in her comment that this is a competitve world!).

  • man, i don't know who you are but i totally agree with you. it's time to grow up, smell the coffee, and get educated. stupid girl. no wonder nobody wants to marry her. she ain't got no modern skills!

  • to yinny90

    WTf? Yes she has a JOB: and Yes she goes to college; there's ur answer; she's a smart caring women can ya'll just stop it; yes she dated you brother well she dated my uncle too; and maybe you were never close or got to know her well that's why u hate her; but i know her and she's isnt like that; stupid; grow up please;

  • Umm...no she doesnt. My mom even told me cuz she was talking to Ashley's mom. She didn't even graduate from her dumb community college. Get your facts straight PLEASE!

  • anyways....she is old PHYSICALLY! ok....i've seen her in person! we just dont have any relationship because i care less about her. She use to go out with my older brother, we're hmong Hawj....just ask her.

  • hey who are you yinny90? do you even know her in person? she learn LUG TXAJ from 1 the best person!

  • Wonderful Ash.

    I grew up learning these songs first, but didnt learn a thing about it. I'm glad you love it. You are an inspiration to a very few of us Hmong people.

    Pass it on.

    Nalee.

  • does she have a myspace?

  • i love her lug txaj.....

  • i hate that my grandma watches this dvd every

    day and that they just added audio into the

    dvd version lol its so loud T_T

  • man wtf? ahha stupid man

  • Good.

    all the constants are spit out.

    moves crowd well.

    I give a A+!

  • you have such a wonderful voice, i have 3 of your cds including the dvd too..can't wait to the next one. i very like all the meaning in your "Kwv Txhiaj"

  • really love ashley's lug txaj !!

    She's very beautiful and have a real talent !!

    someone can upload her miss talent?

  • WOW, she's probably the only Miss Hmong pageant winner who has a real talent. Good job girl, keep it up. Don't listen to all the crap about you being a "nkauj laug"--they're just jealous that they can't have you.

  • Ashley is 28 years old, what we call a nkauj laug. Not married not dating. She getting old. my two cents.

  • so what??? she's has done great things for yourself in life let her have all her freedom which is such a previdge because many girls are marry too soon that they miss out ... great job Ashley...May you continue to receive Goods...pick the right man because you deserve someone that treasure you and love him forever...continue to be a good role model which you are one i see...

  • well then were u expecting her to get marry when she was 16? I think 28 is the right age for her. It's not too old nor too young it just perfect...she's a pretty young lady who deserves to find the right mate for her...

  • 28 is not old. This is just the beginning. Why people still think like the old day. Back then people got married when they were like 13 or 14 and continued to have lots of kids. Why do we want to stick with the traditional way of life? Hmong people are so behind on everything because we were taught to be behind by these traditional ways of life. The time to change was several centuries ago but our ancestors missed it or maybe they were just too dump to do it. So let's not make that same mistake.

  • she's old just accept that k. and seeking for a guy. i know cuz she's a relative.

  • She's not old. You think she's old because you still think like those in the old day. It's time to change and adapt to the new society. Many of our people are very talented but we never get to show them because we marry too young and have kids too soon. This whole shit repeats itself for too long and I think it's time to stop. I mean sex is fun but doesn't mean you have to marry to have sex.

  • wtf? sex? go have your goddamn sex. stop singing lug txhaj and go to school so you can learn something useful to feed yourself tomorrow ok. dumb hmong women.

  • I totally agree!

  • yes, I agree with you..she is still young. I am around her age, and something I feel like I am still a kid. She should continue her career and think less what people think about her. She will find someone suitable for her at the right time and will be very happy.

  • in the Hmong world she's old. if she still claims herself to be Hmong then she's a is nkauj laug.

  • Hmone world! what are you talking about? Are you saying that we're still up in the mountain or in the jungle? We are now in a competitive world or society where very very very smart people are competing one another. I bet a lot of our Hmong people don't even know that because all we think about is our little Hmong community or Hmong world as you called it.

  • i agree w/ you yet 10% of me still lyke the old traditional way of us hmong.

  • I still think of myself as Hmong and there's nothing you and I can change about that but I don't have to live or think like the old Hmong. Because of the way we think and believe that prevent us from moving forward.

  • very beautiful voice, can't get enough of it. Not in a bad way. thnx, for sharing.

  • ashley koj hais lug txaj tau kho siab ua luaj

  • I don't understand it very much but would like to

    because it sounds very nice! I'm really not into

    these things but they just sound WONDERFUL!

  • I understand everything she said, just that i cant sing it myself to replay back to here... lolz.... she's great at what she's doing... more of our hmong women should do this beside being conceited and stuck up or just plan being dumb....

    anyways Ahley keep up the great work...

    we got ears and we're listen...

  • This video doesn't just deserve 5 stars. It deserves a billion stars! If Ashley Thao ever makes a movie with her singing, I will surely buy it. She makes this type of Hmong folksinging sound so good. She's amazing. Does she have any lug txaj movies out?

  • She looks so BEAUTIFUL! I love her entire outfit here, and whoever did her make-up did a tremendously great job on it! Her voice is so nice and soothing to listen to, too. Plus, the video cinematography is excellent. PLEASE keep up the terrific work. We support you Ashley Thao! And a million thanks to the person who made this video and posted it up.

  • So touching and lots of meaning. I give you my blessings. Mas sib ntshib duas.

  • Ashley was what you call a considereable winner of Miss Hmong-she had the natural talent, not just an overnight review for the pageant
