Chapter 134: Fighting
Today is the day when Avril shoots the MV for her new song "Sk8er Boi Skateboarding Boy" from her album.
"Hey, are you ready?" Avril and the members of the band got out of the car, but they were stopped by the agent who was guarding the room.
"Of course—" "I can't wait—" the band nodded.
With the popularity of "Let Go", Avril's fame can be described as a blockbuster if it doesn't make a hit, and it has soared if it doesn't fly.
And their band, which was formed with Avril, also ascended to heaven with them.
With this time, Fire Lion Records was not stupid enough to let Avril be a country singer, but she was originally positioned as a regular solo pop rock female singer.
But the style of singing alone, in the process of polishing, always seemed to be wrong, and later, under the guidance of Sid, Max Martin realized that Avril with a live band was the most suitable way for her to perform.
This relatively unique way is indeed relatively rare, because in the European and American music scenes, if you want to form a band, you usually have to form a band directly, such as Linkin Park and Coldplay.
And other solo singers also made their normal debuts, such as Britney and Christina.
In addition, there are some groups similar to Japan and South Korea in Europe and the United States, but they are also groups between singers, and now Avril is like this, the way of singers and background bands is indeed relatively rare, so Rao is Max Martin and others are experienced, and they didn't think of it for a while.
"Alright, the boys are going to try on the clothes first, and Avril and I will come over and put on makeup. After the broker arranged, everyone went their separate ways.
"Hee-hee, this is the first time I've ever shot something in a studio—" Avril laughed a little excitedly.
"I remember when you were a kid and auditioned for an actor in a TV series, didn't you officially shoot anything later?" Avril Lavigne's agent is from IMG's newly formed music department, and she has reviewed Avril's resume, so she knows a lot about Avril's experience as a child.
"Well, it's a local Canadian soap opera. Avril shrugged, "But I just auditioned, and then I got brushed off." ”
"Hehe, in this way, you can actually be an actor. The agent said in amazement.
"Hehe, I'm not interested at all right now. Avril couldn't help but laugh.
"Really not interested?" The assistant lady on the side suddenly laughed, and then whispered into her ear, "What if the director is Sid?"
"Hey, what is Xi......" Avril's face suddenly burned, and she turned her head and glared at the assistant lady viciously.
"Don't move!" said the makeup artist immediately.
Avril pouted angrily, "I don't want that guy to be my director!"
"Really, how did I hear that someone shouted at night the other day when he was sleeping......"
The assistant lady's teasing made Avril once again blushing and reaching out to cover her mouth: "Wow, ah...... Shut up, shut up!"
"Okay, okay, I'll let you go today. The assistant lady said happily, "I'll go buy you coffee." ”
Looking at the assistant lady who was leaving quickly, Avril said "hatefully", "Next time I will definitely take revenge and come back, hmph, wait and see!"
After Avril and the others prepared the costumes and makeup, they still had to wait for a while before they could officially shoot because of the equipment adjustment of the film crew.
"Whew—it's boring. Avril Lavigne, who is cheerful and active by nature, said boredly.
"Let's go skateboarding. The band's guitarist, Evan, suggested.
Although Avril and her band members work as singers and bands, they all share a common hobby – skateboarding.
Although they are not at the level of Tony Hawk, the god of skateboarding, they are still fine with ordinary forward skating, reverse skating, Ollie dolphin jumps and the like.
So a few teenagers and boys who have not yet left puberty in their actual age started playing in the open space outside the studio.
They first warmed up in a circle around the field, and then placed obstacles on the ground to skateboard, but after a while Avril got bored again.
"Stop!Stop!" she interrupted, holding out her hand.
"What's wrong?" the members of the band stopped.
"It's not fun at all, why don't we make it harder and make a bet?" said Avril with excitement in her eyes.
"Are you sure?" the members of the band hesitated, today was the filming day, and they were just passing the time now, if there was an accident and the filming schedule was delayed, then the record company would definitely not let them go easily.
"What's the matter?" Avril Lavigne's eyes showed a hint of contempt, "I'll just say that I can let you go." ”
The members of several bands are actually young teenagers, and in the face of the delicate, beautiful and arrogant Avril, they immediately had a hot brain and agreed: "Come on, whoever is afraid of whom!"
After finishing speaking, several people competed around the open space.
One of the band members first demonstrated a few difficult moves such as Goofy forefoot and Goofy backfoot.
The so-called Goofy forefoot and Goofy backfoot refer to the technical action of stepping on the back end of the skateboard, jumping up and staying in the air, and making the skateboard rotate horizontally during the skateboard action.
The difference between the front foot and the reverse foot is that the direction of the skateboard flip is different.
But to everyone's surprise, Avril soon played the same trick.
"Oh, I can't see it, Ivy, you're actually at a good level!" the members of the band laughed.
"Cut, nonsense, and don't look at who I am!" Avril cocked her nose triumphantly.
The way skateboarding is flat on the ground, similar to the fighting dance, where A makes the first move and B follows with the same move. If neither of them makes a mistake, then they can go on forever.
Until you know that one of them has made a mistake.
Avril quickly defeated the others, and in the end only Evan the guitarist remained, "Hey, Evan is fighting for us!" "Yes, yes, we must win!"
Several other young men who had lost to Avril cheered at Evan.
I saw Evan take a deep breath, then step on the skateboard a few times, then step on the skateboard and slide forward quickly, then suddenly jump into the air, take off with the skateboard, and then jump on the handrail of a flight of stairs next to the studio.
Then he skateboarded, slid all the way over the entire length of the handrail, and then jumped off again.
"Wow-" "Oh, shredded coconut-" "Awesome ——!"
Then everyone looked at Avril with a smile: "Will you do this?" ”
