Ohh crapp..
So they are now going international?!
I guess my fellows in Bali don't really want to stalk them, but it's worth a shot, I'll try to ask them..
Thanks Plaidmoon! :hoot:

After it had been posted here, I found the article in the Saigon Times (I think) that had the pictures of the teams. I didn't realize that the text hadn't been posted here or I would have done so. I'm not sure if I can find it now because I'm on another computer. Anyway, I'm fairly sure the article said TAR Vietnam wasn't leaving Vietnam, that it was a domestic race. That implies that Kim Lee is either planning to leave the country on a scheduled off day to do her appearance in Bali and then return before the next leg begins or she expects to be out of the race by then and free to travel. Either thought is shocking, at least to me. :wtf:
I suspect your friends won't find much in Bali unless they go to her DJ show and manage to talk to her.
By the way, looking through her tweets shows that she spends much of her life on planes. In the last 7-10 days before TAR Vietnam 2 started, she flew from Vietnam back home to Los Angeles then to Prague for an appearance, back home to Los Angeles for a day or two and finally back to Vietnam for the Race. If she doesn't do well on the show, it's got to be partly due to accumulated jet lag. :alarm

Thanks. I was about 90% sure she had to be a contestant because being a model, actress and DJ wouldn't lend itself to doing most of the jobs on the production team. Her outside activities were confusing though. Obviously it's a much more informal race than most of the other versions. Not only eat, sleep and mingle, but moonlight at other gigs and travel internationally on your own!

The second season of the Vietnamese version of the reality show “Amazing Race” began on June 5 with the participation of a number of local celebrities, instead of celebrities and their friends, like last year.
This year’s competitors include DJs Tien Dat and Kim Lee, singers Pha Le and 365 band member ST, models Diep Lam Anh, Thu Hien, Ha Viet Dung, and Thanh Hoa, and actors Nhan Phuc Vinh, Linh Son and Phareal Phuong.
The participants will be divided into nine teams of two and compete in the race around Vietnam to win the VND300million (US$14,423) prize.
Actor Huy Khanh will also take over from actor Dustin Nguyen’s as the show’s host.
The season’s twelve episodes will be broadcast at 8pm every Friday from July 27 on VTV3.
Baggio and Thanh Phuc were the winners of the first season.
Created by Elise Doganieri and Bertram van Munster, the original series has aired in the United States since 2001 and has earned thirteen Primetime Emmy Awards, including every award from 2003 to 2012 for "Outstanding Reality-Competition Program", except in 2010, when Top Chef won.

Kim is a contestant, she asked me about auditioning for TARV before. But seems like she's out of the race now. Second boot probably :res:

That makes sense if she's planning to have an appearance in Bali next week... :tup:
