The Host and Moderators of Vote for the Girls (Australia)
The moderator line-up was revealed on the VFTG Australia Twitter page. At the time of the Australia version of VFTG's announcement, Ava Zinn, whom also hosts the original American and British versions, was the only confirmed moderator for the site. She later said that she was taking the choices of who to join her on the site very seriously, saying, "It's pointless hiring moderators who don't know anything about the music business, yet demonstrates passion about voting for female contestants. I'll probably go and find someone who did what I did for a living. I was an host 10 years." Eventually, American feminist Khayla Chow and American transwoman Kathi Jameson (ironically Chow and Jameson also were moderators on Vote for the Girls UK, as well as Jameson on the original American version) are confirmed to join Zinn in the Vote for the Girls Australia moderator panel.
However, on 21 October 2014, Chow was fatally shot by Vote for the Girls USA moderator Kym Christian. Chow was replaced by former Vote for the Girls USA moderator Karly Ryder, Jr.
In a Twitter post by Ava Zinn on 27 October 2014, it was revealed that the opening credits will be introduced for the first series [1] and will be introduced for the seventh series of the American version. The introduction will contain, segments from the episode previewed and a shortened version of the introduction will be shown, as opposed to featuring the victories of Samantha Jade, Dami Im, Karise Eden, Anja Nissen, and Marlisa Punzalan.
Following her arrest on 12 March 2015, while Ava Zinn in negotiation to find a way to keep the original American Vote for the Girls in production during a remodel of the Vote for the Girls set (of which will serve for the Australian version) resulting in Zinn (and the VFTG staff) being displaced, and was not willing to have production interrupted, defending her moderator's contract. Zinn, irate, stressed that under the terms of Zinn's contract--as per Vote for the Girls moderator rules--be promptly present on the performance (and/or results) night to its conclusion and record the site's presentation of the results show(s) night both at the home location of Aeverine Zinn Holdings (where the Australian version of Vote for the Girls will be taped), and cannot be interrupted, delayed, or joined in progress for any reason. Zinn insisted that she wanted to do a temporary transfer of the networks feed, resulting in no interruptions. Upon hearing this, Zinn said “I want this done the way I want to handle this with and ZERO INTERRUPTIONS!”, and during the comment, pounded three times saying, “ZERO INTERRUPTIONS!” and got into the official’s face as the available resolutions Zinn was offered did not meet Zinn’s standards and swearing at the official. Zinn was ejected and was initially given a one-show suspension and a year probation from NoSirGifts. [2] As a result, Zinn agreed to delay the launch for a second time until August 2015[3] . Additionally, the web site's moderator panel will participate in the fifteenth series of Dancing with the Stars upon the web site's launch regardless of the outcome of the fourth series of The Voice.
Structure of Vote for the Girls
There are usually four stages in the competition process in every season, the first stage being the opening round at the beginning of each reality talent competition season. In this opening round stage, potential Vote for the Girls-supported contestants are shown auditioning in front of the judges and this is the audition shown on the television reality talent competition.
The host and moderators, all female or transgender females, choose frontrunners of female contestants through the opening round (usually the audition stage). Each moderator has the length of the auditioner's performance (about one minute) to decide if she wants that female contestant on her team of frontrunner picks; if the host and/or all moderators want the same female contestant to win the television reality talent competition for the Vote for the Girls Victory.
