Fan Wei-chi's "Sisters Who Make Waves 7" Performance Criticized, Still Advances; A-Lin Confirms Seeking Advice

Taiwanese singer Fan Wei-chi's recent participation in the Chinese reality competition show "Sisters Who Make Waves 7" (also known as "Sisters Over Flowers 7") has sparked considerable discussion. While her performance on the latest stage did not meet expectations, with issues in pitch and dance synchronization, she ultimately advanced to the next round. This outcome has led to public questioning of the judging criteria.

Fan was part of a group that performed a classic song by Liang Jingru. In a live, unedited setting, her performance was notably weaker compared to her groupmates, igniting online debate and drawing comments that the results were "difficult to convince the public."

Fellow singer A-Lin, who previously participated in "Sisters Who Make Waves 4," revealed in a recent interview that Fan had privately sought her advice before the show, inquiring about the program's demanding nature. A-Lin confirmed the high intensity of the competition but encouraged Fan to relax and focus on personal growth and challenges.

The program's intensity is indeed not low, but I also encouraged her to relax and focus on challenging herself and breaking through.

Reflecting on her own experience, A-Lin emphasized that the most valuable aspects of the show were not just the results but the friendships forged with other artists. She also shared a humorous anecdote about being woken by a scale's voice announcing her weight in the dark, creating a memorable moment with fellow contestant Ella.

From a Taiwanese perspective, Fan Wei-chi's situation highlights the intense pressure and scrutiny faced by artists in cross-strait entertainment productions. While her performance may have faltered, the public's strong reaction and the subsequent discussions about judging standards underscore the high expectations and the complex dynamics of the entertainment industry that bridges mainland China and Taiwan. The media coverage, like that in Liberty Times, often focuses on the personal stories and behind-the-scenes interactions, providing a more intimate look at the celebrities involved, which resonates with a local audience accustomed to following their favorite stars closely.

The live format increases pressure, but it also better showcases true strength and the process of growth.
