Yesterday in the audition of the couple dance opera an old woman singer won her promotion through begging. This was the first time I've watched on TV that the judges gave a contestant the promotion not by performance but by demand. The player should have been eliminated in the preliminary contest for her performance fell short of standard. But she asked a favor of the examiners to let her pass the stage. And she added she had no intention to take part in the main match that followed. This obviously irritated the woman judge but finally she agreed to the requirement with a helpless laugh.
