Tran Thanh follows the 'trend of criticizing defects', says one sentence to Anh Duy, and the big newspaper calls his name?

Excerpt from the show Our Songs, Thu Minh and Tran Thanh commented on Pham Anh Duy's appearance, causing controversy among the audience. The segment was in episode 11 a week ago, but attracted attention when the crew posted it on the show's fanpage.

Specifically, in the image of the Joker character singing the hit Duong Cong with Orange, Thu Minh commented and used her hands to describe: "Little Anh Duy is very suitable for the role of Joker. His mouth doesn't need makeup. It's wide open like this". MC Tran Thanh next to him added: "You know, Duy can eat three hamburgers at once". In response, Anh Duy said: "Men with wide mouths are classy" and was "intercepted" by Tran Thanh: "But if it's too wide, it will ruin the family".

The two artists' use of words was condemned by the audience for being tactless and insulting Pham Anh Duy's appearance. "Thu Minh criticized others in a strange way, and Tran Thanh too, both of them are so tactless", "Thu Minh used such terrible words. Her mouth is so loud", "Is it necessary to speak so directly? It's really vulgar. Tran Thanh is so tactless, be careful not to speak without thinking and you'll get into trouble", "All public figures speak without thinking, so tactless, I don't want to watch anymore"... are the opinions left by the audience on the program's fanpage.

The story didn't seem to end there when a major newspaper suddenly called out the male MC's name with an attention-grabbing description: Tran Thanh, stop being so rude: 'If you're joking, go home, this is live television'.

This article continues to attract readers' attention, after 8 hours receiving nearly 100 responses. Among them, the question is: where is the role of the producer to let such "inappropriate" jokes slip through?

Accordingly, the newspaper argued that Our Song - Our Songs as well as some other entertainment programs produced on television and versions broadcast on YouTube, OTT... have longer durations. In today's digital age, most viewers, especially young people and even children, watch a lot on the Internet.

Therefore, some netizens left comments such as: "This belongs to the producer and censor of the program to broadcast. If the cultural awareness is good, the program will be good. Otherwise, then...". Or another audience commented: Tran Thanh "doesn't want to say anything... but has to say according to the game show, he did well so he was invited", "I don't know if I'm a picky person but I don't watch most game shows and some shows today. Rude, ridiculous, meaningless", "The language is not as formal as in the 1980s - 1990s. At that time, just saying the wrong words was criticized, reprimanded and even disciplined. Now it's as chaotic as a flea market", "If we don't react, one day those artists will create a trend of criticizing other people's shortcomings".

Entertainment programs are always necessary in daily life, helping viewers reduce stress after a tiring day of work. However, it is impossible to create laughter at all costs.

Regarding this, we must ask another question: does the public have enough power and influence to "correct" artists? It is important to remember that this is not the first time the public has reacted to Tran Thanh's tactless, insensitive, and even rude statements.

If the public had that much power, perhaps the word "slap" wouldn't have come out of an artist's mouth so suddenly. In this case, it's still the artist's behavior and self-restraint when in the position of a public figure. Being a public figure is no joke!
