How It All Started…

The drama surrounding The Voice Season 6 began with a video posted by judge Rahma Riad. During the finale, she shared a video of herself watching the show from the comfort of her home.

This sparked a significant controversy, as many viewers believed that the show was “live,” including judge Ahmed Saad.

As the finale aired, Saad’s reaction to the event led to further uproar. After the show concluded, he made a bold statement expressing that he felt “misled” throughout the experience.

Ahmed Saad’s Bold Statement

In a candid confession, Saad explained that several of his decisions, particularly in selecting contestants, were influenced by factors behind the scenes that were outside his control.

This left him feeling deceived, as he believed the outcomes of the show were being steered in a particular direction, despite the results being publicly presented as based on audience votes.

However, Saad was quick to clarify that his comments about feeling misled weren’t meant to undermine the integrity of the show or its contestants.

Instead, he wanted to share his personal experience of what he felt during the process. While he admitted regret over actions that were not entirely his own, Saad emphasized that his frustration wasn’t directed at the competition itself or the people involved.

MBC’s Response

In response to Saad’s comments, MBC’s spokesperson, Bassam Albraikan, addressed the growing rumors about a predetermined winner.

He clarified that three different winner scenarios had been filmed in advance, but the judges were unaware of which would air. According to Albraikan, the final winner was always based on the audience’s votes.

Albraikan also took the opportunity to highlight that The Voice follows strict international standards and production qualities, which are consistently maintained and monitored by professionals. This was an effort to reassure fans that the integrity of the show remains intact.

A Unified Mission

Despite the controversy, one thing that everyone seems to agree on is the core mission of The Voice: discovering and encouraging fresh talent from all across the region. MBC emphasized that this will always remain the focus of the show, regardless of any behind-the-scenes challenges or misunderstandings.

And the Winner Is…

Amidst all the drama, The Voice Season 6 crowned its winner, Joudy Shaheen, the talented Syrian artist, coached by judge Rahma Riad. With her remarkable performance and unwavering dedication, Joudy took the top spot, adding another chapter to the ongoing success of The Voice in showcasing exceptional talent across the Arab world.

In the end, despite the controversies surrounding Ahmed Saad’s comments, MBC and the show’s team continue to stand firm in their mission of providing a platform for undiscovered voices and aspiring artists from all over the region.
