I am very proud to have a very good friend who got into the finals of the Superhost Contest. Still remember when the advertisement on TV was announcing this contest and how I encouraged her to join cos I know she has the calibre to be an ultimate superhost. I was not wrong... Amongst thousands of contestants, she emerged the top 8 female contestants! She is really a cool babe. She went for all her auditions alone, mind you! She did not ask for anyone to accompany her. I would have love to go support her but all her timings were just so coincidently clashed with my working days. But I did not fret cos I know she will go far.
She has been sacrificing a lot for this competition. As she just join a renowned beer company, she was only allowed to take no-pay leave. She was hesitating to continue this competition when they informed her that she was selected to the finals. To her, this is an experience. She is one who loves adventure and thrills. She even gave up our Taiwan trip, which so coincidently (damn it!) falls on the same week as her first round of competition. As a result, I was again not able to render my support at the studio. But I believe she will go far and even made plans to attend the 2nd round of the contest.
Set my alarm at 8pm to watch the show on TV. She looked pretty on screen and her delivery was calm and steady. There were some contestants who sux. Great I thought! Continue to sux big time. True enough, she was ranked 4th out of the 8 contestants in terms of the marks given by the judges. The last 3 girls were fighting it out to see who will get voted out. Haha i thought, and sent a sms to her to reserve some tickets for me next week.
When I got home and on the TV to see who was out of the 1st round, I was shocked to see that there was a 2nd round of voting going on. "What the hell is going on? Why is Enedfea on the podium with this other girl who was voted last by the judges?!" Then I realised that there were 2 parts to this competition. The 1st round is to choose the one with lowest score given by the judges and the one with the least public votes to fight it out. WTF! Isn't it unfair? During the judges round, the last 3 girls were called out and they were given a chance to "impress" the judges (just by standing there and acting pathetic to gain sympathy points) and then the rearrangement of the last girl begins. 2nd part of this contest is to choose out the girl with the least public votes. But hey! Can you see the unfairness of this competition?
(1) During the 1st part, the last 3 girls with the lowest score have a chance to let the judges change their mind but why didn't they pick out the last 3 girls with the lowest public votes and let the viewers change their mind?
(2) During the fight-out between Enedfea & this whiny woman, they were each supposed to answer a question posted by one viewer. After the answering of the question, why was there no re-voting by the viewers based on their answers? What is the Q&A for then? For the fellow contestants and Xu Nai Lin to place their vote? (The bitches will vote for the bitch.)
(3) Xu Nai Lin commented that the whiny woman answered better than Enedfea cos she really poured out her feelings about her personal life. (Qns was regarding Xiao S's premarital preganancy & the whiny woman talked about her abortion.) C'mon Xu Nai Lin, she is NOT answering the qns! She is crying away since she was announced last by the judges. How can a superhost be losing her feet when she is met with such a situation? How can she handle tougher situations if she should be a host? Look at Enedfea, she remained poised and composed even when she was voted last by the public but she stood there and answered the qns to the point and most importantly, she DID NOT sob for gooodness sake.
I am disappointed with the result and the way the contest goes. There is no fairness! I am not going to watch Superhost anymore. Waste time.
