2–1

This is a highly debatable classic, with fan opinion split almost perfectly down the middle. Many viewers call it 2-1 either way. Gattas gets the slight edge due to her superior performance, energy, and landing two of the most iconic moments in the battle: the 'Bonnie is Clyde' scheme and the unexpected kiss on the cheek. While Bonnie's lyricism was praised, criticisms of her delivery and stage presence were more consistent, tipping the scales for Gattas in a photo finish.
