Chapter 37
Audrey's fans trembled with anger, seeing the screen flooded with nasty, vulgar comments. They fired back immediately.
[Do you guys have no decency? Audie had said she refused. Keep spreading lies, and we'll shut you up!]
With her massive following, Eliza's fanbase had its fair share of foul-mouthed fans, spitting out insults that were both dirty and disgusting. Audrey's fans could barely keep up and were brought to tears in frustration. 'They can come after me all they want, but going after my fans? Absolutely not,' Audrey thought.
Then Audrey spoke up directly, calm but firm. "If it's a talent showdown you want, then let's do it."
[LOL, does this clueless nobody even know what she's up against? Or is she just that arrogant?]
[Eliza was on national TV, and she's got over three million fans now. Even pro singers have praised her voice. There's no doubt she'll wipe the floor with this wannabe!]
Eliza had always had a sweet and innocent look, and with the beauty filters in her TikTok lives, her smiles were more sweet and wholesome.
So even though Eliza mostly lip-synced, she'd still gathered a hardcore following.
Albert didn't really support her TikTok career, but Fiona was all in, showering her with cash to boost her profile. Now, Eliza was officially the hottest star on TikTok.
When Audrey heard her fans mention she'd been on a national show, her face darkened even more. Back when the show scouted talent, they'd chosen her initially.
Audrey wasn't interested, but Eliza had been dying to go. Not wanting to disappoint her friend, Audrey had recommended her to the producers, even helping with song selection and hiring a styling team.
'If I'd known Eliza would use that experience to look down on me one day, I'd rather have handed the spot to a random stranger than her,' Audrey thought.
Eliza's smile grew wide as she saw her fans praise her, and she started singing a sweet pop song confidently. With her sugary voice, it was an easy song for her to sing.
As soon as Eliza started, her fans went wild, showering her with praise while taking digs at Audrey.
Meanwhile, Audrey's fans had stayed out of the trash talk entirely, keeping to themselves. But halfway through Eliza's song, they couldn't help themselves and started commenting. [Honestly, she sounds pretty average.]
[To be fair, there are better singers on the cover charts.]
But those comments were buried under the flood of compliments from Eliza's fans quickly.
As soon as Eliza finished singing, the top supporters in her stream dropped over 300 thousand dollars in gifts, pushing her to the top of the live rankings.
For a moment, Eliza was unstoppable. Her fans, after celebrating, turned their taunts back to Audrey.
[Is there even a point to this contest anymore? She doesn't even show her face! She's probably ugly as sin and sounds just as bad.]noveldrama
[Take a hint and just give up already!]
In the middle of the chaos, a message popped up on the screen. Audessa: [Audie, you can do it!]
This was a special message from her top supporter, and everyone saw it.
Logan, who had just joined Audrey's live, saw the message and followed suit quickly, sending a supportive message under his max-level account.
Eliza was fuming. She'd just sung her heart out, and two wealthy fans were rooting for Audrey. 'How clueless could they be?' she muttered.
But, remembering she was live, Eliza kept her cool and smiled sweetly. "Oh, Audie, don't worry if your singing is a bit rough. I did come from a talent show, after all, so there's no shame in losing to me." Eliza's words, though seemingly supportive, were laced with sarcasm, as if she were certain Audrey would fail.
Audrey ignored her and began to sing softly, "Somewhere over the rainbow, way up high..."
