@@edenknight777entertainment5 she was literally 16 when she auditioned. I don't know how you define a teenager, but that is certainly a teenager to me.
She was giving Adam that look so he would speak up for her. When you’re in a competition it is best to hold your tongue as a professional and let the judges debacle things on their own. That comment of not looking at her, was a passive aggressive way to get Melanie’s attention and Melanie handled it gracefully.
Nah adam Levine is a dodgy character we don’t know what really went on and they edit these shows to create false drama so there’s a lot of context missing there could easily be a lot to this we’ll never know about that was cut
Not even, she’s always been that way. There’s other examples of respectful celebs that been in the scene a while . Fork people like xtina and Jlo and Justin timberfake LOL
@@sarahgordon6726 oh sure. So kind that she was fine taking a whole kidney from someone else and then not saying thank you at all to the person :D Pfft. Nice example.
Right!! And Christina and Melanie aren’t even anywhere near the same music category! So idk how she could even perceive Melanie to be a “threat” at ALL.
I saiddddd the sameeee, like did her hair fall out at this time cause of bleach? That would've made xtina extraaaaaaa salty seeing Melanie's full head of healthy hair.
@@cocobunnylvit’s an arguing tactic that smart (and generally older) people use. Stay quiet for a bit if the person is getting emotional and talking too much. Let them say stupid stuff, come across unhinged, and give you plenty of material to pick apart. And then move in for the attack 😂
I don’t believe for a second that she was the one that was being bullied. Chris always seems like she was the mean girl & probably had to switch schools bc of her parents jobs & that’s the story she ran with bc her publicist probably told her to tell that to the public when her career started to kick off bc everyone loves a good sob story about an underdog that overcame. Bc everyone who has the same dream,can see themselves in that. But everyone that’s worked with her (who’s brave enough to come forward) says she’s a bitch who is the mean girl in the music industry. Bullying a teenager just shows that. That’s all she did during her time working on the voice. She probably felt threatened. And for good reason.
@@cheyennedumont5862 kind of ignorant of you to think that a bully can't have gotten bullied.. When you get older you'll realise how differently things work. Bullies usually used to get bullied or still do. It's a cycle, that's why you have to be the better person when someone treats you badly, instead of continuing the cycle
Yo...she switched school? 😂 My J.H Principal told me I should switch schools cuz my bullying was so bad and I said "Fuck That, I'm not going anywhere". So she's a chicken shit. She thinks bullies have the power cuz she gave it to em.
Melanie is one of the proofs that being unsuccessful on your first career test doesn't mean that you're going to be unsuccessful forever. She's an icon.
Just came from Melanie’s Trilogy Tour concert at Acrisure Arena in Palm Springs. I’m 57, I’ve seen over 200 concerts in the past 4 Decades. Melanie’s show easily lands in the top 10. # 1 for total artist ingenuity, creativity, and performance…by a mile. Still blown away. Thought you should know Christina.
Nah I was bawling my eyes out and I couldn't stop crying or look at my teachers and she just kept talking to me passive aggressively telling me to look at her and to stop crying she yelled a bit too. To be fair I deserved it , I was skipping a class.
Seriously though 😮 like for one she could have trouble with eye contact and secondly she could’ve been looking at Adam because it was their idea 😭 I love some Christina but that was not okay 😭
I mean, to be fair she has had multiple songs chart on the top 100 on billboard and has billions of streams. I don't listen to her music and she was super rude here but she has a lot of hits.
I was asked to give a ride home after a sports practice to a kid who had been giving my daughter a hard time at school. That kid ate McDonald’s with us that night, then picked a candy on our last stop before heading home. Later on, I learned her home life wasn’t great. I don’t know…. Kids are kids man. I honestly think her and my daughter both learned things that evening. She was a kid- a bully- but a kid.
Christina calling out Melanie for looking away for HALF a second at her coach is so stupid 🤦♂️It’s hard enough to maintain eye contact when all the person has to say about you is negativity
Her looking away wasn't even disrespectful, it was something of a minor coping mechanism - eye contact is difficult, especially when the person speaking to you doesn't have anything nice to say.
Or true! It shows a lot of grace for the young lady not to cut her off & correct her. Instead she looked at Adam & trusted that he would put Christina in her place.
christina doesn't probably even remember what it's like to be a nervous teen I don't and I'm 31 your confidence grows I don't particularly think she's a bully I just think she wanted to see confidence in that child and went the wrong way about it to call her a bully is little extreme
@@jamieleeatterbury-fp5fr thats entirely possible, but I'm pretty sure she's had a little hostility towards Melanie since she first auditioned. I think she never liked Melanie's music, since the start.
Who even says that “oh, she’s not even looking at me?” Like she just sounded like a pure hater in her tone. She was looking at you the whole time just before that Christina. I can’t remember if there was any other beef between them this season when I watched it, but you can tell there’s an underlying tone of animosity or something coming from Christina’s end.
Typical Hollywood ugliness. Jealousy so thick you could slice it with a knife. Cristina can't handle the youth, beauty and talent standing before her, reminding her what an old, washed up has-been entertainer she's become.
Bc she said she isn't looking at me?!is bullying? It isn't even near bullying. The bullies are all of you making fun of Christina bc of her hair, teeth makeup weight, age career. These comments are horrible. I've never seen the hypocrisy so blantant as these comments. How dare she criticize someone that she is getting paid millions to critique. We can look up celebrity women 😊being a bully and in no way was this being a bully. Their ages don't matter. She went on the show so she doesn't get special treatment bc she is a minor.. the judges aren't there to just give compliments.
@@sarahgodinho1614EXACTLY SHES SO EXPRESSIVE she puts that women to shame ! There supposed to support them as they will be future stars I don’t understand why she had to be that way she seemed so out of touch I hope she’s a better person cuz sheesh I can tell why her career went downhill…
The fact she was so heavily bullied and she kind of has been one off and on, it just doesn’t set right, she should DEFINITELY know better, ESPECIALLY the emotions… glad it was caught on camera, maybe she reflected after?!
As if it isn’t difficult to look at someone directly anyway. Some people get ANXIETY WITH EYE CONTACTTTT. I wouldn’t have looked at her a single time tbh
Christina has always been a diva b*t*h, that's just who she is. It's not about her being an adult & Melanie being a teen. Christina likes being the big time female, which is why she hated Brittany.
Well, there is a Mexican TV producer that in an interview said that she was the worst person to work with. He even said that he was about cancel the whole thing because she was mistreating the crew but apparently her agent scolded her so they could finish. This was so many years ago, when she was promotion her songs in Spanish, so he thought she knew Spanish, so when she complained about it he was like... So you are only making money from Latino community and yet you are so mean to everyone.
Tessanne Chin spoke about her experience with her while she was on the show, and it was not nice, to say the least. And funny enough, her coach Adam spoke up for her.
I hate making eye contact with ANYONE AND EVERYONE and when somebody says, “Oh she’s not even looking at me!” “Make eye contact when you’re speaking” “Here make eye contact so I know you listening!” I get SO upset that actual tears form in my eyes because I HATE EYE CONTACT. NEVER SAY THIS TO ANYONE PLEASE, ITLL EMBARRASS, MAKE THEM ANGRY, AND MAKE THEM SAD. I KNOW ITS JUST A FEW WORDS BUT FOR PEOPLE LIKE ME AND HAVE SOCIAL ANXIETY THEY WILL START CRYING IF YOU SAY THIS. THIS WILL INCREASE THEIR SOCIAL ANXIETY. PEOPLE ARE SENSITIVE AND YOU MUST EXCEPT IT!!! Please spread love❤❤❤ “A few words can go a long way, longer than anyone might realize.”
@@Lollylobesjewellery there was a live audience and the whole thing was broadcast on tv. Idk what could've been manipulated when everything that happened was said out loud.
true! Melanie has never said one bad thing about christina yet christina bullied mel, a teenager at the time, on live television when she herself was a fully grown adult 🙃
Well considering i was alive back then i can tell you he made fun of her because she is so dumb she really thought he was married to kim. The woman he raps about murdering lol
She tried to make fun of him live on MTV about his marriage that happened that same year. I assume she had the same stupid reaction back then too, "oh".
Eye contact can be hard for some people let alone in that situation. I’m lucky I haven’t been in that situation but I’ve always struggled with eye contact as it makes me feel restless and awkward. The older I’ve gotten the more I’ve been able to teach myself to maintain eye contact but still sometimes I have to look off to the side or the restlessness and anxiety gets too overwhelming and I won’t here anything the person talking to me is saying
@@bartgagaX yeah most likely. But the point of my comment is I was trying to make a joke out of it. I thought it was funny whether they made a mistake or not. Thank you for replying to my comment though.
@@bartgagaXyea they forgot the letter "H"....I didnt understand the joke either...the original comment poster was probably like...huh 🤔⁉️WHAT DO U MEAN "U SEE WHAT I DID THERE"..⁉️‼️🤣
This was super cringey to watch, Christina was dead ass wrong for doing this. It was so unprofessional and juvenile. Melanie is an amazing artist and should be treated as such ❤
I remember this episode. Christina literally acted/seemed like she was jealous of this young lady, never wanting to give her credit or props to the amount of talent she had. I'm glad she got her a$$ embarrassed.
@@Lana50050 micro aggression, passive bullying, for example those managers that no one like or if the employees find out they work the same manager then they call out
@@Lana50050 Well she thought jeri slaughter worked out the whole thing, then when Melanie looked away for 2 seconds she called her out, and she scoffed after the person said Melanie is the one who worked it out the stage idea Though it may not seem rude, it feels rude-
If you look at Christina’s eyes while she is saying what she’s saying she was also not looking at Melanie for the first few words. If you want my honest opinion. She is probably secretly jealous someone else has something truly unique in style and didn’t have to flaunt their body to get famous.
“she’s not even looking at me-“ that’s because she looked towards Adam since the stage idea was in fact her’s and Adam’s, also she only looked towards him for a second??
Yes !! Also, it’s natural for teenagers to not always have great eye contact. Adults can maintain eye contact for a while on end, but most teenagers don’t have that skill yet even on TV.
@@spookyeomalso autistic people exist lmao. not that melanie is, but that comment is just so rude and implies she’s doing something wrong by not consistently looking directly at her, which has always bothered me personally because my avoidance towards eye contact has nothing to do with respect or whatever normal people love it so much for.
@@spookyeomI mean ur not wrong- as a teen myself I can confirm that I can only hold eye contact for about 3 seconds without laughing which doesn't make sense bc it's not funny
