Vicki Gabor “New Year's Eve for Two”
Victoria Gabor was this year's star “New Year with two” and appeared on stage many times. However, I remember most of all his speech during which he won the prize Children's Eurovision Song Contest He sang a song “What will happen to us?” from the repertoire Silvia Grzeszczak and Libera.
Gabor made many mistakes during the song, including: forgetting the first line of the chorus, “When we find ourselves on the bend.”
– When it accelerates, it will happen again, what will happen to us… – he sang. – Every sunset is ours, every elevated tone, every mistake corrected and… – he continued and made many more mistakes.
It is difficult to say whether the artist did not remember the text or the problem was in something else, because at the beginning of the performance I saw him more than once correcting the receiver. However, it is a fact that his performance caused a wave of unfavorable comments.
“Grzeszczak cried as he listened”; “At least we know it wasn't played”; “It's totally presumptuous. He doesn't deserve what he's got”; “I know this text better now,” they write.
In recent days, a short TikTok video has also become a hit on the Internet, in which a user called @mateuszprazuch, who Parodies Gabor's New Year's performance. “Let's agree – everyone was waiting for it”, “no one asked, everyone needed it”, “even one-on-one creation is the same” – users write in the comments under the material.
Gabor herself responded to the hate via InstaStories. “It's getting dangerously fast… don't be so uptight. Smile at the haters. I love your comments, they make me laugh,” she said, but her blunt reaction was unlikely to draw applause.
There were also people who defended the young singer. “People, two words are mixed up on fake New Year's Eve, why bother? Let's live”; “It's disgusting how they can talk about her. The girl is only 16 years old”; All artists have made such mistakes,” they write. And this was the most sober group.
Humiliation of a teenager is beyond criticism
Vika's transgression could not go unnoticed by the media, but how much it was blown up by internet users was beyond anyone's imagination, given that Gabor only 16 years. Journalist Karolina Paichkowska noticed this.
“I am horrified by the hatred that Vicki Gabor has received. It is unbelievable that adults – often parents – allow themselves to hate a child while he is still a child! I do not understand why the prosecutor's office does not deal with such cases in the former office? – you can read in his entry on the X website.
Paichkowska also spoke about comments about Gabor's interviews, where the young star often uses English phrases. After the accident at the TVP event, this topic was raised to pursue the matter further.
“How can Vicki speak Polish fluently when she grew up in the UK?” – comments the journalist. “The whole internet is making fun of his words and his background (being brought up in the UK). It's really not hateful? What if this happened to your child?” he added.
Gabor, as a public figure who is closer to adulthood than a child, has to deal with the comments and criticisms about herself on the Internet. An event like “New Year's Eve with Two” is not a school Christmas play, and it is clear that a different professionalism is required from him than from Jaś in high school 2C. Shouldn't Vika's young age be of interest to commentators at all?
Can you laugh at Gorniak, but not at Gabor?
This happened even after “New Year's Eve with Two”. Edita Gorniakwho appeared in an inspired outfit “barbie” and performed covers of foreign hits. “Edzia, when she hears the music and doesn't remember the words, turns her back”, “Like a country, like Barbie”, “Dua Lipa will cancel her performance in Poland again because of this performance”, “I saw it. Live (can't see it)” – commented the netizens.
However, in an interview with “Fakt”, the interested person stated that he is satisfied with his performance.
– Will I ever let go? Why does everything have to be so serious for me, as if it were the Oscars? This time I could get away with this New Year's Eve just in the sense that I could make hot pies, as they say, sing a song that I've been singing for 20 years and it would be predictable and I'm just ambitious until the end. Although I just didn't have the strength in my knees anymore, she said.
What is the difference between mocking Gorniak and Gabor? Without trying to insult the ex – in the PESEL issue. The sensitivities and maturity of teenagers are vastly different from adults, which everyone knows perfectly well every day.
When it comes to celebrities, people seem to stop seeing the person on the other side, but only some avatars that have no feelings (this is a fairly commonly observed phenomenon on social media). However, I assure you that they do – and of course teenagers do, because they probably do not yet have the stable self-esteem that is characteristic of this age.
The winner of Junior Eurovision takes the beating once again
Gabor has been the target of hate quite a bit in recent years. Some time ago, her metamorphosis from a child to a young woman was in the spotlight According to many Internet users, it happened too quickly.
“A girl who pretends to be a woman in her 30's and someone forces her into a money making machine, what is in the mind of these parents to hurt their own child like that?”; “She's under 15, but she's 25 with makeup and everything”; “After all, he is still a child, what is this world coming to?”; “Eater of algae” – they write in the comments.
Vicky is a talented young woman – as you can see once again, The privilege of beauty and youth comes at a price.
