Chapter 749

When she scrolled through the comments, she noticed something was amiss.

The editing seemed choppy and disjointed, and the judges’ feedback seemed stitched as if they were assembled oddly together, from different moments during filming.

Selah only had good things to say about Sumner in her comment.

She had really toned it down, leaving out any criticism or professional advice she had given.

Looking a bit unsure, Lindsey clicked on the comments section and read through the discussions about it.

“Eeven though this company did well, Selah’s praise seemed a bit over the top.

”

“I totally agree! Kristy’s and Carole’s comments seemed more balanced.

”

“Why was Selah treating her own team differently? She was all smiles and compliments for the trainees of her company, but she didn’t hold back when it came to others, not even trying to hide her true feelings.

”

“Was it for the sake of creating a dramatic effect in the show? We need an explanation!”

“To me, it looks like Selah’s true colors are showing.

The company she’s with is riddled with bad vibes.

Let me join in and spill the beans!”

Lindsey was overwhelmed by these comments.

They seemed like baseless gossip.

The show’s crew had twisted things up.

Nancy was so upset after hearing Lindsey’s explanation about the real situation that she was ready to confront the crew for some answers.

When Xiomara was performing, they edited out her improvisation leaving only Selah’s supportive words.

This might lead viewers to believe that Selah had given Xiomara a heads-up about what to expect on the show, a special treatment.

They left out the part where Kristy was embarrassed, instead showing her in a fair and just light.

The trend on social media quickly shifted to a flood of harsh criticisms and insults aimed at Selah.

Both fans and detractors were constantly clashing.

“Was Selah getting carried away after securing her role as the female lead in Vincent’s film? How could she openly favor the trainees from her company on the talent show? Did she think the audience wouldn’t notice?”

“But what was the issue with Selah? She was only speaking her mind.

Sumner and Xiomara did a fantastic job, didn’t they?”

“As a judge, shouldn’t she be careful not to raise any doubts? And it’s not like the other contestants were terrible, right? She seemed to be using her status to promote her colleagues.

That was really off-putting.

”

“Honestly, you can criticize Selah.

But don’t include Sumner and Xiomara.

I can’t wait and see their performance in the next episodes.

”

Thanks to their remarkable talents, Sumner and Xiomara quickly gained a following, and some people started supporting them.

Selah faced ridicule online, even from those who didn’t know the full story.

Despite her fans defending her, she became a target for professional trolls stirring up public sentiment against her.

Some went as far as to personally attack her and even demanded the show’s crew to strip her of her judging role.

Nancy was furious and wanted to post a defense for Selah on Twitter, but Lindsey intervened.

“Hold off on that statement for now.

We need to understand what exactly happened and why the show’s crew acted this way,” Lindsey advised.
