Zvezda Granda Without Saša Popović: What’s Going On With the Beloved Show?
If you thought this year’s Zvezda Granda finale would be just like any other, think again! The popular music competition, known for its spectacle and drama, is going through a rocky patch. First off, the finale that was supposed to happen tonight has been postponed to next Saturday. Yes, you read that right — postponed!
But that’s not all. For the first time ever, the finale will be without the legendary Saša Popović, the founder and longtime creator of the show. Saša passed away a few months ago after battling a serious illness, and his absence is felt as a huge loss by everyone who follows Zvezda Granda.
In his honor, a new winner’s award has been introduced — a statue named after Saša Popović. This means one of the young talents from Serbia or the region will take home a trophy bearing the name of the man who was the heart and soul of the competition for decades. As Voja Nedeljković from Grand said, this is the least they could do for their friend and founder.
Another eyebrow-raising fact: four jury members won’t be supporting their candidates in the big season finale. Is this a sign of backstage drama? Or maybe the end of an era?
Host Milan Mitrović spoke emotionally about this season and Saša Popović, saying it was a tough season but they managed to bring it to a successful close. He also addressed those who speak ill of Saša now, saying he will be missed forever.
All in all, this year’s Zvezda Granda isn’t just a competition — it’s a farewell to a legend and the start of a new chapter. Will the new award and changes bring fresh energy, or will the audience feel the void? Only time will tell.
So, what do you think about the postponed finale and the new award? Is this the right way to honor Saša Popović, or just a marketing stunt? Drop your thoughts — maybe together we’ll uncover what’s really going on behind the scenes!
