I am Your Sunshine

Now it’s down to Mario and Emmitt.

While it’s in commercial, let me talk a bit about the alleged romantic relationship between Mario and Karina. I didn’t know about this rumor until Fran bursted out “Aren’t those two together?” while passing by the TV a couple weeks ago. I wouldn’t know cos I don’t care about celebrity gossip… who’s using drug, who’s dating whom… that kinda stuff. Those some perceived juicy means little to me. What matters more is the role they portrait in the show. No matter it’s for real or not, like one of the blogger said, their relationship, like all setside relationships, will most possibly die away while the show comes to an end. It’s similar to office romance and feelings developed during war time and crisis. Once removed from the environment/circumstances, they usually find they have little in common and even have hard times to make conversation. We’ve heard enough stories like this.

Let’s go back to the competition.

Now that there are only two couples, it’s very different when there’s a group. One have to see the other as the rival, the enemy at this stage. You can no longer say, “Everyone is awesome.” Cos now it’s really either you’re better, or you’re worse. So you’ll have to be better than the other, and you’ll also have to claim you’re better than the other. Humidity doesn’t work in final stages. (In some sport, humidity doesn’t work in any stage.) The first round they danced to the same song. It’s cruel and you gotta have a strategy. Mario and Emmitt are very different and they have different approaches to outstand their performances. Now, like Tom said, it’s down to the taste – heartthrob or football champion gentleman.
