Chapter 509: Amazing

Forty minutes later, all five themes were rehearsed.

There are actually some backup plans in the plan, mainly that if a topic becomes aware, it will be re-recorded.

Of course, if you can avoid it, you have to avoid it as much as possible.

Most of the guests who will be there tomorrow night will be ticketed to enter the venue, and they will definitely want to see a perfect performance. If it is re-recorded and the matter gets out, it will definitely affect the publicity effect of the big show.

After the rehearsal was completed, Simon and the others got up and went backstage.

The angels had just experienced forty minutes of tension, and at this time they all gathered backstage to rest, and when they saw Simon appear, the girls got up to say hello.

Simon and a large group of goblins beckoned through the crowd to the control center where Michael Bay was, mainly to see the camera dailies during the rehearsal.

In this big show, the live performance is of course the key, but the TV platform for the public is actually more important.

Simon had already given Michael Bay enough guidance in advance to refer to his memory, and the opponent's own strength was enough to control the situation, and finally discussed some details for more than half an hour, and everything was ready.

It's winter in New York, but it's still sunny in Los Angeles and the climate is pleasant.

In the blink of an eye, it was the afternoon of the next day.

At Los Angeles International Airport, Lisa Collins entered the pick-up hall with simple luggage, and when she saw Jennifer Raybould, she immediately sped up her pace and pounced, hugging her affectionately.

After the pleasantries, the two girls walked out arm in arm, Lisa Collins complained about the cold weather in New York, and muttered that she wanted to come to Los Angeles to work, and the conversation quickly turned to the upcoming Victoria's Secret show tonight.

Taking advantage of the weekend to come to Los Angeles, Lisa's purpose is obvious, it is for this big show.

Or, more accurately, to listen to the song.

Since learning that Simon wrote several of the theme songs for this big show, Lisa repeatedly told Jennifer not to forget to get herself a ticket with the best location.

Even if she doesn't have the deep look up to her best friend, Lisa has always been full of admiration for a certain guy, and she never misses the other party's various works, whether it is movies or music.

When the two left the airport, the female assistant started the car and asked Lisa beside her, "Do you want to rest first?"

Lisa looked at her watch, it was already past four o'clock in the afternoon.

With the development of her career, she is now getting busier and busier, and this time she finally found time to come over, not to rest.

"Let's go straight to the music center, by the way, is Simon over there?"

"Yes. ”

The female assistant nodded, started the car and drove towards the airport highway.

When the car drove steadily, Lisa looked at the girl beside her who was becoming more and more intellectual, and said, "How are you two doing?"

Facing Lisa, the female assistant was no longer embarrassed, and said, "Very good." ”

"Well, didn't you say before that you wanted a child?"

"Hmm. ”

"And then," Lisa asked, and Balabala guessed, "is he disagreeing again? I heard that they both sent their little ones to Australia." Hmph, men are like this, if you want me to say, you shouldn't ask him, just conceive a baby, he won't be responsible when he doesn't want to. ”

"It's not what you think," Jennifer shook her head, with a little doubt in her eyes, and said, "Simon doesn't resist the child, but probably he and Jenny want to live in a two-person world." I, I'm here, he said he could do it anytime. ”

Lisa didn't quite believe Jennifer's explanation, and said, "I think it's better for you to agree with him in advance, and it's better to sign an agreement, at least to ensure that the little guy has the right to inherit in the future." ”

This time, the female assistant immediately said: "I don't want to fight about this, and Simon will definitely not treat my child badly." ”

"Simon probably not, but, what about Janet?"

The female assistant curled the corners of her mouth and said, "Jenny, as long as I don't fight with her Simon, nothing else." ”

"Aren't you fighting Simon with her right now?"

"No, I'm just his secret lover, and I'm not a threat to Jenny. ”

"I think you should be a little more ambitious. ”

The female assistant curled the corners of her mouth: "It's good now." ”

Lisa looked at her best friend's expression, suddenly sighed, and said, "You're hopeless." ”

The female assistant simply stopped talking.

In her current life, she is indeed very satisfied.

Unlike women who can only hide in the shadow of men, as long as he is in Los Angeles, the two can see each other every day, usually eat together at noon, and occasionally enjoy the world of the two when they go to San Francisco, which is even closer than many couples.

A step further between the two, of course she thought about it.

As a woman, how could you not want to do this.

It's just that she knows very well that she can't win against Janet at all.

She liked the man, very much, but knew she wasn't up to Janet's level.

Janet has made him her everything.

If she did snatch him, she thought, Janet would probably kill herself.

The two drove to downtown Los Angeles, and there was already a buzz outside the Dorothy Chandler Theater.

The show is only open to the public with 1,000 tickets, however, because of the non-stop hype, many fans and even fans of Victoria's Secret Angels are here today, and at least three or four thousand people have gathered in the entire Los Angeles music center area.

Jennifer and Lisa parked their cars, and the two easily entered the interior of Chandler's Theatre compared to the public waiting outside.

found Simon, who was putting the finishing touches on the show with Michael Bay and other creators, just a simple hello, and the man continued to be busy, and the two women did not bother, visiting the backstage by themselves.

Looking at the group of Victoria's Secret angels who had basically completed the styling behind the rows of dressing tables, Lisa inevitably felt a little envy and jealousy between women, and finally couldn't help but lean into the female assistant's ear and asked softly, "How many?"

Jennifer was a little confused at first, but then she understood.

Lisa was asking how many of them the guy had slept.

just glanced at the other party and simply didn't answer.

Actually, she didn't know.

Simon didn't pay much attention to this project, as his personal assistant, she only occasionally helped to pass and sort out some information documents, how could he know how many he slept in private?

Privately, whenever given the opportunity, the female assistant would try to get away with the women who came to him, and she was not as generous as Janet.

It's just that, most of the time, she doesn't actually pay much attention to his various laces.

The main thing is that there is no such position.

After all, she herself is his lover.

Because of her living environment since she was a child, although her parents were very strict with her, living on the Upper East Side of Manhattan, she is not an innocent and ignorant little girl.

Americans' traditional concept of family is largely ineffective for those at the top of the social pyramid.

Entering society, especially those who are still with him, there are really few people who come into contact with them without a lover.

Unconsciously, she somewhat recognized what Janet once said, how could there be only one woman if her man was so good?

Of course, default is default, and she won't take the initiative to inquire about this kind of thing.

Moreover, she also knows that compared to those guys who keep chasing women almost pathologically, he is actually quite restrained, and he does not have a hobby of gathering many women around him for a long time.

The show started at seven o'clock.

From 6 o'clock, spectators with tickets will be able to enter.

Jennifer and Lisa stayed backstage for a while, then went out for a quick bite to eat, and when they came back again, they went straight from backstage to the front hall.

The hall was brightly lit and soft waiting music was playing.

The audience entered the venue one after another, and some important guests on both sides of the catwalk gradually appeared. When the two women saw that Janet had arrived, they leaned over and sat together, surrounded by other Los Angeles superstars and celebrities, and regular viewers came forward to ask for autographs and group photos.

Time flies by in this atmosphere of anticipation.

Approaching seven o'clock, the staff began to remind the audience to return to their places.

When everything was ready, the lights in the theater hall dimmed.

It was quiet, except for the photographers who were about to shoot the catwalk, hunched over.

After another moment of waiting, the announcer of the host's announcement of the official start of the Victoria's Secret fashion show was heard on the stereo.

The lighting adjusts to an ambiguous and blurry red.

This time, a soft-voiced female voice came from the stereo, and she simply spit out a few words: Act I, Psychedelic Angel.

Immediately, music, accompanied by dynamic lights, sounded in the hall at the same time.

Vicetone's "Angels" has an action-packed intro that lasts for 50 seconds. However, for this big show, the 50-second prelude is just right to mobilize the emotions of everyone on the scene.

Sitting in a prime position on the side of the catwalk, Lisa felt a completely different style from the music she often heard, and felt like her heart was going to jump out of her chest, as did many people in the hall. Even the thousands of people who were still standing outside the Chandler Theatre heard the music for the first time.

*......

* Oh God, I have lost my mind.

* Desperate to chase your figure.

* Don't leave me

* I can feel the watchfulness of your heart

*......

When the lyrics sounded, Cindy Crawford stepped on the runway to the rhythm, and the audience, whose emotions had been fully mobilized, applauded in unison.

Referring to the angel costume in memory of the opening style of the 2006 Victoria's Secret show, Cindy Crawford's whole person was cold and glamorous, revealing a bit of pride and charm, which attracted the attention of everyone at the scene for the first time.

The other angels who appeared next also gave the audience a strong sense of pleasing to the eye.

This big show, not only the details of the stage, lighting, and music, but also the most important angel costumes, each of which has been repeatedly discussed and handmade by professional costume artists. It can be said that the angel costumes with five themes can basically reach the level of artwork.

Not to mention the majority of the audience who were quickly attracted, even for professional fashion media people, the design of most of the angel outfits is also full of commendability.

Moreover, those who are interested can also find that the core of the show's promotion, Victoria's Secret brand underwear, has not been marginalized.

Under the angel outfit, there are more sexy underwear than most styles of this era, and even shows that the Victoria's Secret brand intends to carry out a subversion of women's underwear styling design.

The first theme, a five-minute or so performance, almost blinked in the fiery atmosphere of the scene.

The thousands of spectators in the hall almost unanimously felt a sense of unfinished business when they saw Linda Ivangelinsta, the last person in the hall, disappear into the backstage exit.

For the media people invited to participate in this big show, many have an urge to write about something.

In just five minutes of the catwalk, whether it is the lighting and music stage, or the angel costume modeling and underwear design, and even the Victoria's Secret Angel itself participating in the catwalk, there are too many remarkable places.

If you can't record it right away, you probably won't be able to collect the flash of inspiration later.

In the traditional catwalk, the media people with notepads in the audience are often just putting on a show.

This time, for the sake of the on-site shooting effect, the Victoria's Secret show team reminded the participating media people in advance not to carry notepads, but simply watch the show. If you have any questions, the team will answer them after the show, and will also provide all the information needed by the media.

Therefore, when you don't want to write, you often need to bring pen and paper with you.

This time, I desperately wanted to write something, but I couldn't put pen to paper, and this kind of heart-scratching feeling was simply torture.

Fortunately, there was a five-minute waiting time between the two subjects, so some media people simply got up and either looked for pen and paper to take notes, or re-advised photographers who often photographed their media to take precautions next.

After a short interval, the second theme soon arrived.

Paradise Love.

When NLSN's "Paradise" song sounded, a reporter from Rolling Stone magazine in the audience felt like he was going crazy.

Splurge!

What a squander!

The song "Angels" just now is enough to support a best-selling record.

According to industry practice, most artists tend to only prepare one or two excellent title songs for an album, and most of the others are often just a number. This is also the reason why in the later digital age, record giants opposed the spin-off and sale of record singles, and once split, most of the songs in many albums were ignored.

Now, however, Simon Westeros is throwing out a top-level single that is completely enough to support a hit album, just to accompany a fashion show.

Isn't this a splurge or what?!

Originally, I still had some fantasies, thinking that one song "Angels" and one song "Paradise" should also be the best two, but when the third song "Blank Space" appeared, the "Rolling Stone" reporter sitting in the audience planned to find someone and beat him up.

Of course, after the fight, hug your thighs and shout 'my god'.

Compared with the first two songs, the classic single "Blank Space", which has transformed from rural to pop, is naturally no worse than the previous two, and for professional musicians, the arrangement and soundtrack skills contained in it are even better.

In the original time and space, this song also appeared on the catwalk of the Victoria's Secret show, which also coincided with the Victoria's Secret catwalk.
