Is Kim Vo Vietnamese?! (Answered)

[Update: Kim Vo's grandmother is Vietnamese, which makes him a quarter.]

His last name suggests he could be. Awful Plastic Surgery asserts he is. And upon closer inspection he does look like he might be part Vietnamese. Although, thanks to all the work he seems to have had done, it's hard to tell.

BTW, in case you have no idea who Kim Vo is, he's a hair color expert, co-proprietor of B2V Salon, a correspondent on E!'s Daily 10 and a judge on Bravo's Shear Genius. But lately he's been getting more attention for having an over-plumped pout and other plastic surgery procedures, gone awry.

According to the B2V Web site, Vo was born in Vietnam (which doesn't necessarily mean he's Vietnamese) and raised in Europe. And Kimvo.com says "his artistry is rooted in his Vietnamese-French childhood." Still cryptic.

Do any of you know his actual ethnicity? And while I'm on the subject, does any one have any pre-plastic surgery pics of Vo?

As it stands, this is the best before & after comparison I can come up with.


Update: I just found the answer, on Elle. Vo's grandmother is Vietnamese, which makes him a quarter.

One question remains. Does any one have any pre-plastic surgery pics?

In case you're wondering, "Why the strange, random posting?" I'm a quarter Chinese. And I like to spot my fellow Asian peeps.

This guy is Vietnamese and not only a quarter. He's hiding the fact he's asian. Pathetic flaming noob.

Where did this guy get his credentials...? As a multi-racial colourist, his highlights makes him look like an Asian Ken doll wanna-be. Better to look naturally exotic - embrace your "roots"!!!

He's half Vietnamese, from his father. His last name, Vo is a common Vietnamese surname. The grandmother he is referring to is his father's mother.

He should follow the footsteps of Frederick Fekkai. whose last name is not even VN, but he doesn't try to obscure the fact that he's half VN. Apparently Kim doesn't have great security in who he is.

I agree. If you are Asian, be proud of your heritage! I see Asian men and women with dyed blonde hair, colored contacts, and some with nose jobs, lightening powder on their faces... why are you trying to be a Caucasian person? Is being an Asian person not "good enough" for you? The more proud and eager you are to embrace your dark hair, almond eyes and petite noses, the more proud and eager the media and world will be of representing Asian people as well. Consider yourself enlightenend. Plus, you are not fooling anyone. Even with the blond hair and contacts, we can still tell you are Asian.

So how about those Caucasians who try so hard to dress and act like Asians?? And don't tell me that Caucasians don't dye their hair, so what is wrong with Asians dye their hair? Just think about it in this way: an Asian black-hair girl thinks she will look better with a brown hair, just like a blonde Caucasians thinks she will look good with black hair color or whatever colors she likes. Don't judge people because they want to make themselves more beautiful. And one last thing, Asians are proud of their heritages. Asians are smart and good at everything.

Kim (who I know very well personally) is MUCH older than he claims, as I have seen the passport with my own eyes. Kim's family was lucky enough to leave Vietnam in the early 70's and since I have personally met his Mother, I know for a fact she is full-blooded Vietnamese. There is no French there, as he used to tell me that he said that for more 'cache' as a colorist. Tonight, for example, I saw another show on E regarded more surgery he got in order to get abs like 'Magic Mike'. Kim barely eats and neither does his staff. He works very hard but has angered a lot of his former employees due to his claiming their celebrity clients...as in he did their color regularly (more cache here). Kim always assumed that everyone gets plastic surgery. He WAS Vietnamese and now looks more like a over tan Viking. He isn't even that good anymore, but just speading himself too thin, and pissing people off. He needs to STOP with the surgery and the ever younger boyfriends.
