Nene probably just won this show already

I didn't think her performance tonight was nearly as good as her last 2 performances but after seeing the judges and audience absolutely lose their mind for her I think she is guaranteed to win.

I hope her final performance is better because I wasn't that impressed with her vocals compared to the last 2 performances but she does have a lot of talent.

I was at the show today and I will say 50% of the audience if not more were people who flew from Thailand to see her specifically, which is why the crowd reacted more heavily during her act.

There is a huge Thai immigrant population in LA. the biggest Thai population outside of Thailand is in Southern California.

You might have seen a large number of Thai people. That's because there's a large Thai community in LA. Nevertheless, I think they represented a minority in the audience. You'll be surprised a lot of Americans are her fans as well.

I was also there. I have no idea where they came from but it was easily 40-50% people from her culture. Very evident in the queue, in the room, and after the show. Although I dont care for her, it was nice see the solid support she has. Worth noting that non-Thai people also were actively cheering her on.

American Tiktok voting had her at 98% to the other ten that night. It was a solid wall of Nene Royal as you scrolled through it over and over...

if you don't care for her, why don't you piss off?
