The scores of the artists participating in the program "Anh trai vu ngan cong gai" were decided by 350 viewers watching live at the studio.
"Brother Overcoming Thousands of Challenges" episode 1 has created an effect on digital platforms.
The show's appeal comes from its cast of famous male artists with many years of experience in many fields.
The scores of the 33 male stars - known as talented - were decided by the audience in the studio. With the votes for each group and each individual, the live audience acted as the judges.
The 350 studio viewers have the power to decide who goes on and who goes home. And when their opinions differ from the general audience, the arguments are endless.
Previously, in music game shows in Vietnam such as "Music Game", "Vietnam Idol", "The Voice"... the audience could vote to increase a part of the score or save the contestant from returning to the show.
Votes are for reference only and account for a small percentage of an artist's scorecard.
However, when a group of audiences holds the power of "life and death" in their hands but has no expertise, artists will not be evaluated objectively and fairly.
Therefore, right after episode 1, singer Do Hoang Hiep burst into tears when he received a score of 520 - the lowest in the team even though he had an explosive solo with the song "Drum". The inexplicably low score surprised the former member of Ngu Cung and made the audience angry.
A similar controversy also occurred with "Anh trai say hi" when the rankings of livestage 1 were arranged confusingly, not based on specific criteria.
"Anh trai say hi" gives the power to decide the ranking to the studio audience. Because there is no clear convention and it is completely based on the live viewers, the performances are judged based on emotions, seemingly depending on artists with many fans like Issac, Song Luan, HIEUTHUHAI...
Therefore, viewers watching through digital platforms question the expertise and evaluation criteria of live viewers. Studio audiences tend to support artists with good reputations and familiarity with the public.
In 2023, "Beautiful Sister Riding the Wind and Breaking the Waves" received great attention but also encountered mixed opinions. That was the performance "Huong Ngoc Lan" by Hong Nhung and My Linh's team, which received a record low score of 188 points; Dieu Nhi's team "Lon Roi Con Khoc Nhi" staged emotionally but finished at the bottom; Huyen Baby was highly appreciated by the audience but was eliminated because the show was recorded early....
Viewers believe that the studio audience's "taste" is ballad performances, with familiar songs (with Chi dep dap gio roa song) and famous faces with good reputations (with Anh trai vu ngan cong gai and Anh trai say hi).
Meanwhile, professional factors such as vocal and dance techniques are not highly valued or carefully considered. If so, artists with many fans can completely become invincible, regardless of whether they perform well or not.
The producer of "Anh trai vu ngan cong gai" said that the 350 studio audiences were of different genders and ages. They did not represent anyone or the general audience.
Therefore, even if they get low scores or lose the show, the producers hope that the talents understand that the scores are just the personal feelings of the audience in the studio at that time.
However, the votes will always be unknown, when the studio audience can only watch a 3-minute performance, and what they cannot see is the practice process, contributions and dedication of the artists behind the stage.
