Selena Gomez telah kembali ke panggung! Di American Music Awards 2019, Selena membuka acara dengan menampilkan dua lagu barunya, yaitu Lose You to Love Me yang mellow, diikuti dengan Look At Me Now yang upbeat dan seksi.
Namun kabarnya, saat bernyanyi Lose You to Love Me, suara Selena terdengar off-key alias fals. Ups! Para netizen langsung ramai dan mengunggah klip video tersebut di Twitter, dengan asumsi dan tebakan bahwa Selena sedang merasa gugup, emosional… atau sedang sakit flu.

To be fair, sepotong lirik dari lagu ini memang mengangkat soal bernyanyi dengan fals:
“You promised the world and I fell for it / I put you first and you adored it / Set fires to my forest / And you let it burn / Sang off-key in my chorus / ‘Cause it wasn’t yours.”
So… mungkin bernyanyi off-key memang disengaja, atau barangkali sound system-nya sedang bermasalah? Apapun alasannya, berikut reaksi netizen di Twitter.

Sang off key in my chorus is not just a lyric in this selena Gomez song but clearly a motto she lives by when performing. This is PAINFUL. #AMAs

It's been how long since @selenagomez has performed!? I'm sure she was hella nervous singing such personal songs for the first time and we don't know what she's going through physically/health wise. I'm not here for the shady tweets #AMAs

Pada akhirnya, Selena tetap tampil dengan prima dan mengesankan di lagu Look At Me Now… lengkap dengan dukungan Taylor Swift dan Halsey di bangku penonton! Yay!
