On December 6 2008, Adela Lupse, presenting the call-in quiz Telepremii on National TV on Romanian television, had what The Daily Telegraph described as a "tantrum on air". As the final prize became available, Ms Lupse's show had no callers. Already excited, she began to shout. Throwing the telephone down on the studio floor and stomping on it, she admonished her viewers, "I want the telephone to ring now. Now. Call me now!".
Adela Lupse worked on a call-in quiz show called Telepremi.
