Chapter 281 Can I Hear From President Luke?
Bella, who had been expressionless when receiving comments from other judges, suddenly felt like she had just lost her pride.
This show was a live broadcast, so audiences all over the country were watching it.
That would also mean Hanson’s words were broadcasted live. How did they expect her to feel fine after hearing that?
Feeling humiliated, Bella ran off the stage without saying a word.
Now that an unforeseen situation occurred, the director was also nervous. Therefore, he could only urge the host to proceed with the contest and ignore this session.
Since the show could not be interrupted, the host absentmindedly invited the next contestant to perform.
However, no one else was in the mood to watch her performance anymore. They were all whispering about what happened just now.
Even the online commentary never stopped.
‘President Luke is ruthless, but Bella Godwin doesn’t deserve it.’
‘He’s merciless, but I love it!’
‘People don’t treat him seriously unless he shows his temper!’
‘I thought President Luke was gentle, but I guess he reserves his tenderness only for Vania! I’m jealous!’
‘I feel bad for the fourth candidate. It seems like her performance was over before anyone could pay attention.’
Indeed, the audience was still immersed in what just happened, so no one really paid attention to the fourth contestant’s performance.
The fourth contestant was actually pretty skilled. She could sing and dance seamlessly.
When it was time for the judges to comment, Vania took the initiative to request her, “Can you show us a snippet of your performance again?” She was obviously giving the contestant a chance to show her strength.
The contestant nodded gratefully and answered, “Sure.”
With that, she pulled off another great performance, winning a round of applause.
Before leaving the stage, she thanked the judges nonstop.
‘Is Vania an angel? She’s such a sweet person! Knowing that the fourth contestant’s performance was neglected, she gave her a chance to perform again.’
‘Her smile is so heart-warming! The production team made the right choice by picking Vania as a judge.’
At this moment, posts with #AngelVania hashtags on the internet had far surpassed Melanie.
However, it came after Hanson’s #SheDoesn’tDeserveIt.
When Melanie came on stage, Vania finally adjusted her sitting position.
Folding her arms and leaning on the chair, she looked like she was watching a play. It was as if she expected Melanie to stir up trouble.
Melanie chose a love song to sing and play on the piano.
The song was a ballad that expressed the feeling of love. Coupled with her own piano accompaniment, her overall performance was not bad.
One could tell that she had carefully prepared for the stage, so her seriousness and determination could make up for the lack of her vocal skills.
At the very least, her performance was the best among all the contestants so far.
Vania raised her eyebrows, not expecting Melanie to put effort into her debut.
When it was time for the judges’ commentary, Jeffrey was about to speak according to the previous sequence but was interrupted by Melanie.
“Can I hear from President Luke first? The reason I chose this song is to sing for the person I love the most.”
In an instant, the crowd was dumbfounded.
Even the netizens were bombarding the comment section with question marks.
‘Is she out of her mind? Is she going to cause trouble again?’
‘Seems like it’s another series of her not giving up.’
‘Let’s just wait and see what she’ll get in the face.’
‘Everywhere she goes, she puts up an act. Is she an actress?’
‘I suggest she audition for a role next door.’
Melanie’s absurd behavior puzzled the audience. Moreover, her statement sounded like it was a confession.
Coupled with Melanie’s previous scandal with Hanson on the internet, it was inevitable that old news would be brought up again.
To be frank, it was not beneficial for Melanie at all, because once again, netizens dug deep into her past.
The popularity she just gained from her performance earlier instantly drained out.
