The first performance round of Sisters Who Make Waves 2026 has become a hot topic across Chinese social media, not for its performances, but for the controversy surrounding the elimination of Duy Nina from Trang Phap’s team. Competing alongside Giang Yuchen, the team was rumored to have been unfairly judged in both group and solo rounds, ultimately leading to Duy Nina’s unexpected exit.
On stage, the female MC did not hold back her emotions. In her farewell speech, she directly questioned the scoring system, stating, “I don’t know what criteria the stage is using to judge.” The remark quickly went viral, widely interpreted as a subtle accusation that the show had manipulated results.
Online reactions largely sided with Duy Nina, with many viewers echoing her concerns about transparency. However, despite her bold statement, speculation emerged that the production team avoided responding directly due to her powerful background. According to Chinese media, Duy Nina hails from Xinjiang and is known to be close friends with Gulnazar.
Her credentials extend beyond entertainment. She previously worked as a host at CCTV and led several prominent programs. Academically, she is also recognized as a top student from Peking University, having achieved outstanding results during her studies.
More notably, her family background has drawn attention. Reports indicate that her mother holds high-ranking positions in dance associations and is a nationally recognized performer, while her father serves in a senior governmental role in Xinjiang. Her grandfather also reportedly held a significant position in China’s national political system.
The controversy did not stop with Duy Nina. Other teams, including that of Sun Yi, were also said to face questionable judging outcomes, further intensifying public scrutiny. Reports of behind-the-scenes incidents, including strict treatment of eliminated contestants, have only added to the growing dissatisfaction.
Despite the setback, Trang Pháp is reportedly gaining momentum. According to online sources, she has risen from No.20 to No.9 in the individual rankings and will continue as team leader in the next round, assembling a strong lineup for the upcoming performance.
