Maksim was a guest judge for 2 weeks , Lauren is for the entire season !

Yes, she cannot score well. In the first week Ganesh was fair but Lauren wasn't, how about that?

She isn't just a newbie but to judge an Indian show she sould have knowledge about Indian dance forms which she doesn't have. Period !

And if she can't speak Hindi, let her speak English with subscript below but NO , she has to do everything and get herself laughed upon 😆

All this for no reason at all. I actually spent time to read this thread and here - read it and weap:

-speaking hindi a prerequisite to be a judge: Maksim Chmerkovskiy was also a judge in JDJ so no such requirement. At least Lauren is trying to speak in Hindi. 👏

-she can't score well: ..and you say this after the first weekend? really? just give it up. This argument has been used and abused every JDJ a thousand times over

-she's just a newbie (or a runner-up in JDJ): she has done MUCH more. Try looking her up 😎

-she's judging coz she's a good dancer: wrong. She's judging coz she has a vast knowledge of dancing skill and technique which she has proved in India through hard work (like anyone else). You cannot take that hard work away from her.

-she cannot be a judge in JDJ as she is a foreigner: wrong. Foreigners are far and many in this industry from Katrina Kaif to Sonia Gandhi. And Indians work in Hollywood from Irfaan Khan to Priyanka Chopra. 😛

She's a dance guru and a judge in JDJ 8. Accept it. .. and concentrate on the celebrity favs 🥱

I agree Lauren is trying hard and everything but you cannot compare Lauren to Prabu Deva - first he is Indian, a really big Indian dance star and knows Indian dance forms really well too. Lauren is trying but she doesn't have the same calibre as Prabu Deva. Also, Prabu Deva is loved by the Indian people, has hadtremendous success in India...if he were to try to judge SYTYCD he may not be accepted like he is in India. Lauren similarly has not found her footing yet and to be honest she really has not won over the Indian people yet - the average Indian barely knows her. You can't compare her to Shahid or KJo because she was selected specifically for her dance knowledge and she is still learning how to provide proper criticism as a judge "ie: what Remo did".
