Hunger-Game Much?

The Voice
U.K.?
U.S.?
Canada?
Australia?
Russia?
Which version of The Voice clicked in your mind first?
It doesn't matter!
Because all of them play along the same game of chess
(With 4 players, complicated? Yes!).
 And I can not stop comparing it with the famous Hunger Games
(With 12 players! God have mercy).
Beat each other up till you win, and may be make a few 'friends'.


Every Saturday when I watch Marvin Humes and Emma Willis hosting The Voice UK, it reminds me of Caesar Flickerman hosting the interviews linked with The Hunger Games.
Why?
Well Emma's high quiff and Marvin's amazing collection of three piece suit does the job! I can't help morphing the two to see the resemblance. 
Beautiful?
Yes!
And can we please start with the main show?
Yeah, and I do mean when people start beating ---- Ohh I mean singing their heads off and cry.
Lets start with The Blind Auditions.
I can't see who is singing. But the odds are in their favour and I am going to turn. Or not?
I am hinting towards the Reaping.
(I am Effie and I am going to pick a name without seeing who it is.)
Unfortunately, a tribute belongs to only one district, but here the singer can choose their 'District'. 
So am I going to die first because I belong to District 11?
Or am I going to live a little longer and belong to District 1? 
Or may be choose District 12 and win?  
Decisions, Decisions.
Hang on!
Did you hear that?
Tick
Tock
Tick
Tock
BHOOOMM!
Here I am at The Cornucopia.
Battles-much?
I will kill you.
Yes you are from my district.
But,
I am going to kill you.
I will send you home.
Yes you are from my team.
But,
I am going to send you home.
Hang on! You are my friend?
I will kill you later.
(Or just eat the berries)
This was The Battles summarised for you.
Enjoy!
Coming up Next.
KNOCKOUTS!
Lets run into the woods and shoot from far off!
Or just eat something wrong.
(Mess up a note)
Fun.
My coach is going to decide if I live or no. The sponsors can join the show as well. Send me a parachute 'cause I am burning.
Pick me, Pick me!
This is the time when a coach who said they would see the singers till the end, send them home 'early' as someone 'better' has cropped up.

At this point I begin to think, who is really winning?
The players?
OR,
The coaches?


And can we finally talk about the actual capitol audience? I mean it is their 'entertainment' at the end of the day.
The Live Shows is when the audience comes into play as we all know.
But do the capitol audience play in the hunger games?


If you though 'No' well then you are wrong.

Why else do you think Katnis and Peeta had to 'love' each other?
You like Katnis?
We send her a parachute.
Simple.

Oh and you like Peeta as well?
We will patch them up and send them both parachutes.

Parachutes = Votes


I am a little dramatic.
If you couldn't sense the pure fun in the blog post and instead have taken this too seriously, well then hun, straighten up and Smile!
I am a big fan of both The Hunger Games and The Voice UK and couldn't stop seeing the similarities.
A little sadist of me to enjoy people disappearing.

 That is it for this week's blog post.
Have an amazing week ahead :)
