Chapter 265: Chapter 265: Frequent Incidents
This is the first time the theme song of "Shining Star Journey 2" has been fully revealed.
Despite only being half an hour since the live broadcast started, it has already made it to the top of the popular searches, gaining a lot of attention.
The huge screen on the stage is split into twenty parts, simultaneously broadcasting a close-up of each contestant at the same time.
Internet users viewing the live broadcast online also can choose to watch the close-ups of the contestants they are interested in.
After the competition, the total score will be made up of the number of clicks on each individual’s close-up + mentor votes + on-site contestant votes + netizen votes.
Among these, the votes from netizens will make up the highest proportion of the total score.
Personal close-ups can magnify a person’s strengths to the greatest extent, but they can also magnify a person’s weaknesses to the greatest extent.
For example, facial expression control and dance intensity.
What’s even worse is that the live sound is unedited, and if there are any off-key moments, the camera would zoom in on the person who made the mistake, creating a public execution.
The first group is on stage.
Although they have rehearsed countless times in the practice room, there is still a big difference between that and a real stage performance.
This causes many people’s performance to be affected by nerves.
—My God, the show really pushed the envelope this time.
—This is just my karaoke level, if I’d known I would have joined myself.
—Is this really a girl group selection? The singing is so terrible, they can’t even get the timings right.
—Can we be kinder to them? They’ve only practiced for three days.
—When compared, Lucy Taylor simply shines!
—Wasn’t Melissa Martin supposed to be the main vocal? She actually went off-key, and the crew was ruthless, giving her a close-up. She’s totally humiliated. I suggest she moves to a new city.
—I’m suddenly looking forward to someone’s performance even more, haven’t her fans always touted her as the versatile ACE?
After two rounds of performances, there were numerous mishaps on stage, and few could fully handle the open-mic and close-ups.
This is when Lucy Taylor’s advantages started to show.
After all, she is a trainee who has trained for three years, she has experience. Although her singing and dancing aren’t the best, she has comprehensive skill.
In summary, she’s "stable".
The music stops, and all the mentors on site give evaluations.
James Landon, who is usually sharp-tongued, was unusually quiet this time, simply saying it was fine when asked.
That can’t be considered a review.
Reese Shaw, however, was eager to show herself in front of the camera, looking emotional, "I have also been a member of a girl group for many years, so I very much understand you all. Life as a trainee is really tough, I’m glad you all have managed to hang on, I’m so happy for you all."
As she spoke, she even teared up, contrasting the arrogant image she usually presented off-camera.
Mentor Violet handed Reese a tissue, and patiently comforted her.
She didn’t mind that Reese stole her limelight at all.
The camera switched to Hilary Quin.
She was first startled, looking a bit dazed, but quickly revealed a sweet smile, "I think everyone’s performances were great, I don’t really have any comments to make, just keep going, I really enjoyed today’s performances."
Hilary Quin didn’t understand anything about singing or dancing, even being tone-deaf herself.
Anyway, she was only in this show to show her face, all she had to do was give a fake smile.
She forced a sweet smile, nodding at the camera, her gaze landed on James Landon, her smile faded slightly, and she quickly looked away.
