You’ll never believe who wished Naisha a happy birthday!

To keep this post somewhat related to katseye, I have a discussion topic: Missy and Naisha seem to be considered two of the worst enemies of eyekons. Why do you think that’s so, and do you think the criticisms against them are justified? Let’s talk about it!

Clearly, Pop Star Academy has left a bad taste for many of us, and we can all agree that HxG is ultimately the bad guy for manufacturing the drama in the survival show itself. The executives who get bashed the most for the PSA narratives are those who were visible on-screen in the show, such as Mitra, Bang Si-Hyuk, and Missy. However, people seem to never mention director Nadia Hallgren when pointing fingers at who to blame for the "evil editing".

Nadia Hallgren is an award-winning, Emmy-nominated filmmaker who is known for her fly-on-the-wall style of capturing behind-the-scenes footage. The fact that we still heavily reference PSA in heated discussions to this day should show you the crazy legacy and impact of her cinematography / directorial prowess.

Ultimately, the director should be held the most responsible for choosing to include scenes like:

• Manon saying she won't go to rehearsal (before catching covid)
• the girls venting their frustrations about Manon during the group therapy session
• Lara's silent laugh when Manon passed by, and Manon saying that Sophia gave her a dirty look
• Naisha and Adela discussing Manon's work ethic after they got eliminated

It's easy for viewers to just blame Mitra due to her on-screen role in manufacturing drama for reality television. But the director is seemingly not faulted enough for choosing to include the above clips that perpetuate the bad narratives, such as the lazy allegations and mean girl allegations.

A very noteworthy quote by Nadia in this TIME article reads:

>One reason why I personally wanted to do this show was I have a particular interest in human potential and what it takes to perform at the level of elite performers...I was very curious about the process of being able to take someone with a very low skill level and grow them to a place where they are an expert, especially in a really short time.

So apparently, it was Nadia's intention, as the director, to give Manon an underdog edit in this docuseries. We can discuss further on whether we think the overall edit is inherently racist, but do keep in mind that Nadia is a Black woman herself. Nevertheless, HxG does play a role in greenlighting the narratives portrayed in the storyline, so HxG executives are not necessarily in the clear either and thus should still be held accountable.

Looking at all the mentions of tea…is this hinting that their next single is called TEA? And are we getting a Cardi feature?? She took pics with Katseye backstage, and her outfit/hair seem to match Katseye’s current aesthetic as well!

Could be totally reaching, but it’s fun to speculate! 🫖

In particular, this backup dancer’s fan cam caught my attention. The way her facial expression goes like 😦 ——> 😀 is hilariously entertaining yet kinda unsettling lol i think it really suits the song’s concept of “getting high”

The backup dancers always add that pizzazz that brings the pinky up concept to life on stage, like coachella and the intro tea party of the AMAs performance.. we ought to give them their flowers too
