KPOP’s AleXa WINS American Song Contest [FULL RECAP]

[@bizzare_storm]

from Produce 48 to winning American Song Contest, she is truly a star

[@robbinmizushima5907]

Yep, while she continues to rock the stage the producers who were caught for vote manipulation are rotting in jail.

[@pnlpyng7625]

@@robbinmizushima5907 tbh, even if they hadn't manipulated the show she wouldn't have been in the upper 20s in voting. AleXa wasn't and isn't as popular as everyone else who debuted and the ones in the running. They were wrong af for the manipulation though.

[@stylespruce]

I read this comment like...."what, why?" but then I saw the ending and her energy and now I'm in tears too 🥲

[@KaceDee]

She won because she is different from the "mainstream" American style. She's a breath of fresh air. Glad people are now embracing other types of music.

[@PongoXBongo]

She brought the Korean polish and stage performace that we don't see often in the States.

[@marksmith8210]

How many of these singers just standing and singing are we going to see. That's like going to a hole in a wall place to watch a local...so boring.

[@blee1997]

i dont see anyone who would replicate that success for a future season.

[@Registeredprofile]

Breath of fresh air 😅 are you kidding, this is so generic kpop classic, you can hear since kpop started to be mainstream all around the world.

[@msb5775]

Off topic but Snoop seems like such a kind and non problematic person, I’m glad he was able to be a mentor and support her on the show.

[@annasier2604]

He seems like the definition of “I’m here to smoke weed and have a good time”

[@theirishwizzard1]

he is NOT unproblematic 💀

[@ameliarose47]

Bro if the worst thing he's done is smoked weed, hell, just worst thing being doing drugs period, he's more unproblematic than quite a few kpop idols who've bullied other idols (and it actually be PROVEN like that guy from Mirae mocking Billie on Vlive caught in 4k), gotten DUI'S, and whatever happened at The Burning Sun (I know it involved women but I don't know if they just got drugged or were r*ped).

And we're talking about alexa, the way she cried could've made ppl heartbreak for her cuz of her hard work and finally got what she deserved. If u don't agree just shut up and let people have their own opinions about stuff? Literally.

[@jkaygoulet]

Look how grateful she is. That's is true stardom. It is so important to appreciate the love & the opportunities that your heart work creates for you. In this line of work you are nothing without your fans & when you don't appreciate the people who make it possible for you to have a career & the people behind the scenes like dancers, crew, the marketing teams, the people who give their time to make sure you are a succes, that lack of humility it shows. This girl, right here - is truly grateful for every opportunity. She works hard for what she has & what she puts out, & she makes sure to never forget those who helped her alone the way. That is true stardom. Not just the image on the outside, but the good heart on the inside. Congratulations Baby Girl! You absolutely deserve every bit of success! I'm so happy for her! 💙💙

Y’all she’s so humble. She even did a full bow. Most of the people in the audience don’t know how respectful that is but I think Koreans that are watching this know that that’s important that’s humbleness right there

[@lightfury6697]

it's not like I won the contest but for some reason my eyes are teary. Alexa is so talented, she deserves everything.

[@watchanimeandstramkpop8195]

Same here seeing her cry and just the fact she fell to her knees and when she got on stage thanked her dancers and just everyone in general and just how humble she is and she even got on her knees and bowed down I mean really this had my tears flowing, she truly deserved fhst win and I wish her many more and I can't wait to see what other special surprises she'll bring to us, she was truly born to shine and she is killing it

[@MichaelNgTzeWei]

I'm glad she finally realized that she can have a bigger fanbase at home than in South Korea. Her performances have been fire but she never got big despite trying for so long.

[@blinkie3275]

Same I'm feeling like a proud little sister 😅

[@karlahernandez-qv5qz]

The fact that snoop seems so genuine in his compliments to her really warms my heart

[@ameliarose47]

Korean standards are so brutal and critical that despite being so popular and talented AleXa didn't feel like she was a star despite making it. Snoop is such a kind man, absolutely hyping her up making her realize yes, AleXa what you're doing is incredible. Her win was beautiful, and having been on Produce 48 and knowing the hard work going in thanked her dancers and finalists, and Snoop made sure to keep the momentum going and hype AleXa up too. Amazing.

[@plutoniansza]

She even acknowledged her backup dancers. Love to see it!

[@nicoflomar]

From the moment she got her 654 points she already had mathematically won the contest

[@Ohmygh0st]

I wish I could do math like that 😞

[@ameliarose47]

I take it then that the conversion to points had some kind of percentage involved? Otherwise there's no way to definitively say someone else couldn't have just gotten loads. (From a common sense standpoint yeah we knew, but if the math works out numbers are fool proof)

[@escotiyaotl8869]

@@ameliarose47 There's not really a need for percentages to be used, though. The way public votes work is quite specific.

[@remjob2296]

Honnestly when you compare your regular american pop/european pop stage performance only a few get even close to Kpop's level of staging. Kpop is on another level, pop has to catch up fast !

[@ameliarose47]

It really does, that's why kpop is becoming such a global phenomenon. It's not even just the talent bc talent is global, talented people are going from where they are to SK bc they think they have what it takes and if they can make it there that's where they'll have the most success. It's the effort. The dancing. The stage presence. Making a performance a PERFORMANCE and just just an appearance. That's the difference.

I love her music and stage presence, but I guess I'm on the fence about why she'd want to enter into an American song contest when she's already a dominating artist in Korea. She clearly had the highest production value/cost of any other performer on that stage, it just kind of feels like she came in and sandbagged the competition. (Just my opinion, and I'm happy to stand corrected).

[@texasgermancowgirl]

Ah so let me explain (kind of late) we had many popular and famous artists represent different states, including Michael Buble whose a huge international star. She’s American and has never grown up in Korea, so this was her chance to go back to her roots

[@KirbyEatsCake123]

Can we stop and realize how Kelly Clarkson felt when AleXa won? Kelly was in AleXa’s exact same position 20 years ago and it changed her life in more ways than she could imagine when she won the first American Idol, and here she is being able to give AleXa the same privilege she was given 20 years ago.
