Oh, how tweet! – Update with video: Vietnamom finds out she’s in 225

Baton Rouge native John Lambremont’s Vietnamom Twitter feed is a seriously humorous ode to dear ole Mom.

Nhuy Lambremont swaps “sweat suit” for wetsuit, “bank frog” for bank fraud, she describes The Kardashians with this succinct review: “I just hear dumb girls fight.” And it all goes online, posted to Twitter by her son, John Lambremont.

Some have told him to stop teasing his mother about her English.

“Most people know [Vietnamom is] actually because I’m my mom’s biggest fan,” says the musician, who signs and manages artists for popular Los Angeles record label Kill Rock Stars. “I have the sneaking suspicion she knows how funny she is but doesn’t let on.”

With a little more than 100 followers, will Lambremont make efforts to expand his mother’s influence? He says gaining a certain number of followers was never the point of tweeting quotes from his mentor.

“The best thing that could’ve happened has already happened,” Lambremont says. “Friends love my mom. She has fans.”

Those fans are getting regular doses of insight from a woman who, at the age of 23, fled her war-torn homeland for the U.S., just a few years later, entered an interracial marriage—a rarity in Baton Rouge even now—and is still married today, a proud matriarch and, according to her children, an expert cook.

“Her wisdom is almost always dead on,” Lambremont says. “And if it’s not, it’s hilarious.” @vietnamom
