1186 Travel light
In North America, in February, there are flashes of light, staggered and staggered, and even sometimes, on the same night, the two sides appear at the same time, and the award ceremonies and related events are one after another, and there are countless associations, unions, film festivals, and ceremonies of all sizes, which are dazzling.
Between the neon clothes and feathers and gorgeous clothes, the prosperity and splendor of Vanity Fair have reached an unprecedented peak, which is desirable and fascinating.
On February 10, the 55th Grammy Awards took the lead in creating a wave of topics, and last year Adele and Lan Li teamed up to dominate the awards ceremony, creating a new history, especially the folk frenzy led by "Don Quixote" has changed the direction and composition of the entire North American music market.
This year's global music extravaganza has taken it a step further, pushing the folk and rock frenzy to its peak, truly announcing the resurgence of the retro wave, which can be clearly felt in the four major general categories.
Production of the Year, Gottier's "The Most Familiar Stranger" topped the list, which was alternative rock, Single of the Year, Fun Band's "In the Mood for Love", which was pop rock, Album of the Year, Blessed Son's "Babel", which was Folk, and Newcomer of the Year, Fun, which was an indie rock band.
The four major awards are all from folk and rock!
Over the past decade, these two genres have been almost forgotten by the market, with pop, dance, hip-hop and rhythm and blues becoming mainstream, but last year's "Don Quixote" album created an incredible frenzy and has continued to dominate this year, becoming one of the brightest sights in the entire market, and now it has changed the composition of the market even further.
Change has finally arrived!
It is worth mentioning that last year's biggest winners, Adele and Lan Li, although they did not release a new album this year, still entered the list of nominees again with the follow-up singles from the previous album.
In the end, Adele beat Katy Perry and Rihanna to win Best Pop Song, while Lan Li beat out the Blessed Sons, Muse and The-Black-Keys to win Best Rock Song for "Another Light".
As the winner, Lan Li regrettably missed the award ceremony this year because he was filming a film work, and Robin Helzer, the manager of the "Heather Cross Foundation", took the stage as the winner and read the acceptance speech written in advance by Lan Li.
"Thank you to everyone who has been talking about amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and to everyone who has paid attention to the insignificant light in life. Each of us is 'another light', but our existence can illuminate someone's soul and bring a touch of warmth, and that is the most wonderful thing. Again, thank you. ”
When the speech ended, the audience applauded.
Because at the Grammy Awards, for the great success of the "Ice Bucket Challenge", a special link was set up to remember every fighter in life, even if it is an unknown ordinary person, they also live tenaciously and firmly. At that time, the background music was chosen to be "another light" of Lanli.
After the Grammys ended, folk and rock instantly became the hottest top topics, and the blue ceremony once again occupied an important place in the entertainment version, and the powerful social influence of this new generation of top superstars is increasing unabated, and is infiltrating every aspect of life little by little.
The only regret is that Lan Li was absent from the performance that night.
The amazing thing is that this hot and popular "singer" has still not officially performed in public!
"One Man's Concert" is not a Grammy after all, and the "Today Show" performance is not a tour after all, and the audience is still too small;
The topic went viral on Twitter and Facebook.
Unexpectedly, "Drunken Country Ballad" also frequently appeared in the topic. According to rumors, this is a movie about ballads, and although there is no further explanation, people are curious about what kind of performance Lan Li will give in the movie as an actor playing a singer, which is definitely worth looking forward to.
It's another year of Grammys.
What is certain is that independent music, led by folk and rock, will inevitably be more inspired, and it is a good thing in the direction of the big picture that more breakthroughs can be made in the field of art, but in the final analysis, the soil for art is already there, and whether it can take root and sprout and blossom depends on the seed itself.
However, there is no shortage of focus and excitement in the busy and noisy awards season, and even the Grammys, the hot topics lasted less than three days, and then disappeared into the hordes of awards ceremonies, with more topics, more gimmicks, and more attention.
Hulala, two weeks like an Indian train, swaying and whistling, the carriage was full of colorful local residents, the whole train was like fermented fat bread, moving forward with a sigh, although it was seriously overloaded, but finally it was able to reach its destination on time-
On February 24, the 85th Oscars officially kicked off!
The final battle of the awards season has finally arrived!
The blue stretch car slowly moves along the wide road, the surging crowds on both sides are cheering hoarsely, welcoming all the top superstars, the boiling heat wave igniting the frenzy of Los Angeles, palm trees and sun, sand and blue sky, bikinis and waves, California gracefully opens its arms to welcome everyone.
The red carpet can be seen in all its splendor and dazzling distances, and the dense crowd pushes this annual era to an unparalleled high/tide.
"So, are there any other precautions that need to be explained tonight?" Lan Li retracted his gaze and looked at Andy, Nathan and Roy opposite, the three of them were dressed in black evening dresses, sitting neatly and dignified, although they could not enter the Dolby Theater to watch the ceremony live, but on the Oscar night that followed, thanks to Lan Li's relationship, even Nathan received an invitation.
Both Roy and Nathan have their eyes on Andy.
Andy spread his hands and said with a smile, "No, I'm sure you can handle it." In fact, you're able to show up on time, and that's the most important thing. ”
This morning, it should be in the early hours of this morning to be exact, Lan Li took a plane to land in Los Angeles. For the guests attending the Oscars, Lan Li is definitely an outlier, not only late, but also unhurried, Andy is almost scared into a cold sweat.
Fortunately, it arrived in time after all.
Eaton Dormer was undoubtedly one of the hardest working today. I had prepared a few sets of evening dresses for Lan Li early, but after trying them on in the morning, I found that during this time, Lan Li's weight had actually decreased, the muscles of the whole body were tighter and tougher, and the overall temperament seemed to be a little more upright.
This is an absolute disaster for Eaton, who tailors the dress.
Because a gentleman's suit and a lady's dress are still different after all, if you use pins and paper clips to modify the lines, then it is bound to destroy the integrity of the whole suit, maybe the layman can't see it, but in the eyes of the insider, it is bound to be exposed, and Eaton is absolutely unacceptable.
So, in just three hours, Eaton traveled all over Los Angeles to temporarily recreate the style for Lan Li, and finally solved the problem.
After deciding on the final look, Eton collapsed on the sofa tiredly, gritting his teeth and complaining, "Lan Li Hall, you owe me a meal!"
But after Lan Li replied lightly, Eaton immediately became like a deflated ball, and did not continue to argue, "I heard that not long ago, you attended a photo exhibition in London. Well, would you be interested in talking to me about what you've seen, I'm full of interest, and we can have a good conversation over dinner. ”
Now, Andy stared at Lan Li, who was ready in front of him, but he knew how nervous he was behind it.
According to the agreement, they were about to appear in the middle of the first half, but now Lan Li was ten minutes late, in order to avoid disrupting the order of the other actors, Andy had to be busy contacting his agent peers, and contacting the organizing committee to make sure that there was no problem, and then came to the Dolby Theater.
Of course, with Lan Li's current prestige, the academy is always ready to welcome Lan Li to appear at any time.
As he spoke, the car slowly stopped, Lan Li smiled and nodded, and then left the car with familiarity and boarded the red carpet.
Looking at the back of Lan Li leaving, Andy remembered, "Roy, did you mention it to Lan Li yesterday?"
"No, Lan Li fell asleep straight after arriving. I thought you told him today when I was trimming my hair. Roy reacted very quickly and replied immediately, and then saw the bitter smile on Andy's cheeks, Roy couldn't help but rub his temples, with a wry smile on his face, but still shook his head, "Forget it, it's not a big deal, Lan Li can handle it." ”
"I'm not worried about Lan Li. I'm more worried about her. Andy said with a chuckle, then shook his head slightly, and the car slowly left the entrance of the red carpet and continued to move on.
Standing on the red carpet with both feet, this is his second time attending the Oscars, but the atmosphere and lighting have gradually become familiar, and more importantly, there is no burden tonight, his only task is to present the award guests, and he can travel lightly and enjoy this annual feast.
Lan Li did not take a quick step, but stood at the beginning of the red carpet, nodded to the audience on both sides with a smile, and quickly looked at the red carpet, mainly to avoid last year's "crash" accident and prepare in advance.
