Chapter 318: The biggest upset

"Last night, the Grammys broke out the biggest upset in history, and the American people also ushered in the most humiliating Grammys ever, a kid who is just an actor and is unknown in music, won the best single of the year, the best record of the year and the best newcomer of the year with a song "YouRaiseMeUp"! It's ridiculous, can anyone imagine that a singer starred in and directed a movie, and then won the Oscars for Best Screenplay, Best Actor and Best Director?!

Of course, of course, there should be no problem winning the screenwriting award, if the film is really good. Similarly, "YouRaiseMeUp" should have no problem winning the best single of the year, it is indeed a moving song. But the question is, weishenme Sean? Can Don get Best Record and Best New Artist? Or how could he get these two awards?!

So many great singers in North America, than Sean? Don is more qualified to win Best Record and Best New Artist everywhere, such as Nora, who is also nominated for these two things? Jones. Oh, poor Nora, as Ravi? Shankar's daughter, who performed such beautiful jazz music and won the best album of the year, must not have imagined that she would lose to an amateur singer whose main business is acting.

It's unacceptable, it's unacceptable! The Grammys, who are known for their impartiality and objectivity, have been tarnished, and the Recording Academy must give everyone an account! It's not just us, it's not just the fans, it's everyone! ”

At this time, the front page of "National Investigation" on February 24, the headline "Grammys of Disgrace" was bold and blacked to occupy two-thirds of the page, which was quite shocking at first glance.

Basically, the day after the Grammys ended, almost all the media said in unison that there must be something shady in this. It is normal that before the awards ceremony, the traditional media demeanoured Good Sean one-sidedly, thinking that he was just going through the motions, and although there were many voices supporting him on the Internet, they were also not optimistic. Who knows, after the awards ceremony, Sean not only won the best record and best newcomer awarded to the singer, but also won the best single for "YouRaiseMeUp", which was no less than a slap in the face on their face.

It's not that actors who have not crossed over to sing have won the Grammys, although there are not many grand slams on the Walk of Fame - the Emmy Award, which represents the highest honor of radio and television, the Tony Award, which represents the highest honor of theater, the Grammy, which represents the highest honor of music, and the Oscar, which represents the highest honor of film, have all won it all once.

In short, although there are not many people who have won a Grand Slam, it is definitely not nothing, and it was just yesterday's Grammy, Robin? Williams also won Best Comedy Recital Album. However, just by listening to the name, you can know that these awards are all leftovers, and they are really not more chosen, so they are given to those cross-border actors to show their generosity.

Even one of the Grand Slam winners, the famous Barbara? Streisand, who also won the Grammy first and then the Oscar, as an actor who focuses on movies and has become famous, has won two of the four most important awards as a singer, which is not convincing in any way.

Of course, it is impossible for the media to say by name that someone at the recording academy has been bought, unless there is conclusive evidence, and only the unscrupulous tabloids have just jumped up and down like thisβ€”the name of the National Survey may seem grandiose, but in fact it is still a tabloid.

However, to be so annoyed and angry by them, and to stay on the front page for several days in a row, Sean is also the first one.

"Can I describe it as a dance of demons?" Having anticipated this situation, Sean, at Frederick's suggestion, stayed in New York for three or four days before returning to Los Angeles.

"I think so......" Galen, who was standing on the floor-to-ceiling window and looking out, replied, Rao was that they avoided the limelight, and when they returned, there were still many reporters gathered outside the Beverly Hills mansion.

"You're a superstar now, Sean." Galen, who turned his head, smiled and teased, "This is the first time since the Grammys were held, and it is destined to go down in history." ”

"Okay, superstar," Sean shrugged noncommittally, "as an actor, the first award in his life was actually a music award, and it can indeed go down in history." ”

"Don't be disgruntled anymore, Sean, a lot of people don't want it." Galen glared at him with a "haven't you read those newspapers" look, and then showed a thoughtful look: "However, this is really strange, why does the Weishenme Recording Academy want to do this?" In any way, there is no reason for them to do so. ”

"Probably because they think I look pleasing to the eye," Sean said with a smug tone, "Fred said that recording academies often take great care of people they look at, and if they don't, no matter how popular that singer is or how hard they usually work, they don't want to be recognized." ”

In short, the Grammys are notoriously freewheeling and undisciplined, and as they said before, they can give MJ seven or eight trophies at a time, or they can ignore Madonna for more than a decade. In fact, if Sean had memories of this, he would know that in their previous lives they had done even less disciplined things, such as Coldplay, after winning an alternative rock album on the Grammys in early '03, they picked out one of the songs and rearranged it a little and released it separately, and then won the best record the following year with this song.

The same goes for the best newcomer, the rules of the recording academy are that as long as a singer is competing for the Grammys for the first time, they can be counted as newcomers, so there are often singers who have debuted for five or six years and are already quite well-known, and some who have just debuted to compete for the best newcomer - this is Weishenme said, the Grammy Best Newcomer is at some point comparable to the best director at the Oscars.

In this case, you can imagine how frustrating it will be for those newcomer singers who compete with famous singers for the newcomer award, so if Sean is not a young actor who is being watched haode, the recording academy gave "YouRaiseMeUp" three awards at all.

"Aha, Fred," Galen said, his expression immediately turning strange, "Speaking of which, your public confession to him is very touching, but you only mention our names. ”

"I think you'd better change your words, Galen." Sean said warningly, with some annoyance.

You know, there are many people watching the live broadcast of the Grammys, and there are some people who love Haode, so after Sean thanked Frederick and came down to hug him, some people on the Internet began to claim that he and Frederick were a bunch of people without knowing what mentality. This was immediately responded to by many people, and some people even said that he spread so many scandals to cover up people's eyes, and Sean was from San Francisco, so those guys almost shouted "together".

Although he knew that most of them were jokingly coaxing, who knew if some unscrupulous tabloids would use it to make up news casually, so Sean was still a little annoyed.

"Okay, if you feel unhappy, then next time you win the award, I will definitely point your name one by one." He said this with some anger, and Galen clutched his head and didn't know what to say for a while.

Fortunately, Sanders' voice came at this time: "You want to know the reason?" Then look at this, maybe not all, but this factor certainly accounts for a significant proportion. ”

Coming in from outside, he handed a newspaper to Sean's hand.

"What is it?" Sean took it and looked at it, and immediately raised his eyebrows and read, "The spokesperson for the Recording Academy said, Sean? It is very fair and fair for Mr. Tang to win the Grammy for Best Record and Best Newcomer, "YouRaiseMeUp" as an inspirational song, comforted the hearts of many people during the special period, and Sean? Don's contribution to the song is also obvious to all, so he is fully qualified for the award. ”

Although just like the Oscars, there will be many people after each Grammy, and there will be many people who jump out to complain about some singers, and because of the bizarre rules and choices of the recording academy, there are many more than the Oscars. But the recording school has always had the attitude of "whatever you say, I don't care", anyway, it is more self-focused than the film school, and with their temper, they have to let the spokesperson come out to explain, you can imagine how bad the public opinion is.

But in the same way, this sentence once again clearly expresses the attitude of the recording academy: Sean deserves the award, we just want to give it to him, and there are good reasons, how about it?

"So, I won the award because I put out a patriotic song at the necessary time?" Sean said with some tears and laughter.

"Presumably, the recording academy must have considered this aspect of the impact, after all, YouRaiseMeUp was so well timed that people almost spontaneously thought of it as a 911 commemoration." Galen couldn't help but laugh too.

Well, that's right, you must know that "YouRaiseMeUp" has been on the "Billboard" TOP100 list until now, and it was supposed to fall into the nineties, and it was about to fall out of the list, and as soon as the Grammys passed, it suddenly rose back to more than seventy, obviously, the record for the longest time on this list was broken.

"Do you need us to congratulate you again?" Sanders also asked with a smile.

"Forget it," Sean smiled wryly, "I think there may be an element of the recording academy trying to embarrass the film school." ”

Galen and Sanders looked at each other in some surprise, and they had to say that if the influence of the 911 incident was added, it was really possible. After all, the Oscars invited Sean to sing on stage first, and the Grammys had to delay until today due to problems with the selection mechanism, so they used this way to declare their existence.

So, Sean's winning the grand prize is both a good thing and a bad thing.

"Okay, don't think about it, it's just a possibility, film school shouldn't be so stingy," Sean waved his hand.

Well, this matter has been put on hold for the time being, and all that is left to do now is to wait for it to subside automatically, but there is no peace and waves, and at this moment, Sean received a call from Nicole.
