Helena Ahti-Hallberg reminds on social media on what basis the judges give their marks to TTK dance couples.
The results of Sunday night’s Dancing with the Stars semi-finals came as a great surprise to many, when Emma Kimilainen and Matti Puro, who were considered early favorites, were unexpectedly eliminated from the competition.
According to star judge Helena Ahti-Hallberg, the judges were squarely to blame for the surprise result, even though the couples made it to the next round based on viewers’ and judges’ votes.
Ahti-Hallberg writes about it on her Instagram profile. He has not remained speechless in the face of criticism and writes a direct message to those who doubt the impartiality of the jury.
– TTK evokes emotions in the audience, deceptively strong. Ahti-Hallberg begins her writing by saying, There is also hate mail, luckily not too much, and I can leave it alone.
– He further said, the constantly repeated headlines about the jury’s prejudice, bias and unfair points confuse me.
Ahti-Hallberg writes that, as far as he remembers, this season, not a single drop has fallen on the final couple according to the judges’ scores.
– And bias again… after all, it’s just that you have to give the best marks to the best, right? Ahti-Hallberg continues.
He emphasizes that, as a TTK judge, he scores the couples based on their dancing skills.
– And if, as the judges say, the person in the jumbo spot does not fall, then the responsibility for him lies at a completely different address than behind the judges’ table, he adds.
– Have a wonderful week, next week we will read again in the newspapers and on social media how we, the judges, once again chose the final result, even though in the final the power lies with the people, he writes at the end of his text and the audience urges us to remember that TTK is entertainment that should be enjoyed.
