Chapter 253 Magic Bible
Sorry, sir, the event has already started, you can't go in now.
Because of an accident on the road, Duke arrived a little late at the show at the Palace of Westminster, and was habitually stopped by the Victoria's Secret staff who was guarding outside, but the other party immediately saw him clearly Who is it, he changed his words and said, Director Rosenberg, can you go around the corridor on the left side of the show?
No one who can stay outside the show as a receptionist is an idiot. They recognize that they are one of the major shareholders of their own company and let them go immediately.
Duke nodded, and instead of entering directly through the main door, he walked towards the side door through the corridor outside.
Tina, remember to notify Nancy when you look back. He turned to Tina Fey and said, Don't cooperate with that rental car company in the future.
His rental car broke down on the road.
I've written it down.
Tina Fei still knows who her boss is, I'll find a suitable car dealership later.
And... Duke remembered the things he thought about on the road, but forgot to mention because the car broke down, Tell Nancy and Panney, and let them inform Catherine Zeta Jones and Vivienne Lee as soon as possible from the Malibu moving out.
This kind of job is best for an agent, who can see that Zeta Jones has always had unrealistic ideas, but a standard utilitarian like Nancy wouldn't give her a chance.
Walking to the side door, Tina Fey reminded, When we came to London, Nancy and Panney were already dealing with it, and the time for the agreement was coming soon. Before we go back, it should be completed.
That's the best. Duke nodded.
The staff on the side door opened the door, and Duke and Tina Fey walked along the most marginal passage to the stretching platform. After a little look, I found where Mrs. Mulia was, and hurried over to sit in the two adjacent seats.
Mom... Duke greeted his mother.
Mrs. Leah nodded, You're late.
There's something wrong with the car on the road.
Seeing his mother looking over with concern, Duke quickly whispered. Just an engine failure.
Mrs. Leah's expression immediately relaxed, and she nodded to Tina Fey who was greeting on the other side, and turned her eyes to the stage again.
Duke's eyes crossed his mother and landed on the person sitting next to her. That was Scarlett Johansson. The childishness on the face of the blond little girl had basically disappeared, and it seemed that he didn't see him. Just looking down at the book, obviously no interest in the once curious supermodels.
Shaking his head, Duke's attention also turned to the runway, and the catwalk of the Victoria's Secret Angels was in progress.
After a few years of fumbling practice, Victoria's Secret's annual show is getting more and more luxurious. There are more and more faces that used to appear frequently on the Internet.
After only ten minutes of watching, Duke discovered two somewhat familiar faces from the newly added models. If I guessed correctly, it should be Adriana Lima and Giselle Bunchen. However, from their attire, it can be seen that they are only peripheral models of Wei Mi, and they have not officially signed a contract.
In recent years, with the continuous momentum. Victoria's Secret Angel's reputation has gradually emerged, and it has even become synonymous with supermodels. Being able to sign up as an official angel not only means overnight fame, but also a huge salary of millions of dollars every year.
In particular, the wings that represent angels are dreamed by some models. Today's Victoria's Secret Angels, wings have become a status symbol.
In Victoria's Secret, in addition to aesthetic considerations, wings are also a symbol of model status. In Victoria's Secret's shows over the past few years, not every model has wings, but only those with wings, such as those who have gradually become the top brand of Victoria's Secret Angels. Heidi? Klum, they are contracted models of Victoria's Secret company, that is, the real so-called angels.
Most models have cooperated with the company before signing the angel contract with Wei Mi, but they are only similar to the nature of temporary workers, and the status and income of the angels are not the same.
Every Victoria's Secret Angels show is without the performances of heavyweight guests. After a few years, it has gradually become a practice to invite popular singers to sing on the Victoria's Secret runway.
This annual show is held in London, and the most popular singer in the UK is naturally invited. At this stage in 1997, who is the most popular singer in the UK? Of course it's a combination...
So five gaudy little girls, wearing Victoria's Secret pink pajamas, took to the stage and sang their famous song Wannabe.
Although this group is famous, Duke can only know one, and frankly speaking, Victoria Adams' status is relatively low among the five, which can be reflected from the number of lyrics sung and the position of the performance. , she sings very few solo lyrics, usually in the fourth or fifth place, and rarely gets to the front.
Always at the front is a black and blond Persian cat who sings, but like Chicago and Star Trek, who is the smartest of the five? I am afraid that in a few years, people all over the world will know.
In fact, in the past few years, who can remember the names of the other members? It simply became synonymous with a person.
After the torture of the long shooting of Chicago, Duke has learned something from Lily Fred to some extent. Although the quality of singing and dancing is still limited, it has improved a little, and this is only appreciated from the perspective of a bystander.
Compared with female singers such as Madonna, Mariah Carey, Whitney Houston and Shania Twain, who are becoming popular in North America, their style is simply summed up as gaudy, no matter in terms of styling, singing, and music. Above, there is no way to talk about elegance and chic.
The five girls are average in appearance, average in dancing, and their singing skills are not very high. Comparing members, there are good and bad, but good singing is not much better. If the only advantage is that their performances are full of passion and youthful vigor , they also took the route of being extremely close to the people, and they also sang the simplest pop songs similar to the future brainwashing Divine Comedy. This may be one of the reasons why they quickly became popular, but fell at the same speed.
After Wannabe. They sang Who. Do. You . .Are again, which can be said to be very hard.
In fact, if you think about it, you can understand the reason for their hard work. This is a program broadcast live to the United States through ABC TV, and it is obvious that they want to enter the North American music market.
Compared with the almost completely closed TV and movie program market, pop music can be said to be relatively open to foreign music.
Don't know if David Beckham is here? Duke suddenly came up with this boring thought. The Victoria's Secret annual show invites a large number of celebrities to participate. If I remember correctly, David Beckham should be famous. After all, he will be punished for the World Cup next year.
This pair of golden boys and girls can be said to be a typical example of male and female junior three participating at the same time.
Shaking his head, Duke threw away these frivolous thoughts, and he wasn't much better himself. In the entertainment-related circles, these are all too normal.
After the performance, the catwalk entered a short break, and the guests could also use this to solve some personal problems. Scarlett Johansson on the other side of Mrs. Leah put the book in her hand into the bag at this time. stand up.
Hi, Duke, she greeted very politely.
Dear... Duke smiled, I didn't expect you to see me now.
Sorry, I'm a little absorbed in reading. She forced a smile. To Mrs. Leah, Godmother. I'm going to the bathroom.
I'll go with you. Tina Fey also stood up.
Two women, one big and one small, walked outside, and Duke asked strangely, Mom, what happened?
Mrs. Leah knew Duke was asking about Scarlett Johansson. With a sigh, he said, The Johnsons are about to divorce, and the two sides have turned against each other. In order to compete for property, Scarlett called me and cried a few times, and I took her out. This situation is such a big deal to her. Her child is hurt the most, and I can feel that her character seems to have changed a bit.
Outsiders can't interfere in other people's family affairs. Duke only persuaded his mother a few words, and then he didn't say anything.
Indeed, it is the children caught in the middle who are hurt the most by the broken family. Not everyone will have such a peculiar experience and will not be affected by the division of the family at all. Moreover, children in their early 10s are often particularly deeply hurt.
When you are younger, you are not very sensible, and your feelings will not be too deep; when you are older, you will be a little more mature and have stronger tolerance.
Duke...
Probably thinking of the past, Mrs. Lia suddenly asked in a low voice, What did you think?
Please, Mom, I was just a little kid who didn't know anything.
Duke couldn't say that his mind was mature enough at that time, right? I had to say, I was only three years old at the time, what can I think? When I grow up and understand, I think I am lucky enough to have the best mother in the world.
Although Mrs. Leah didn't say anything, there was a smile on the corner of her mouth.
Not long after Tina Fey and Scarlett Johansson came back, the catwalk started again. Those enthusiastic angel models kept sitting and interacting with the audience, squeezing out one after another, blowing kisses one by one, and the atmosphere of the scene was changed. push to climax.
The finale is the sky-high price underwear made of diamonds, rubies and platinum. Now Victoria's Secret's top angel Heidi Klum is wearing them for the finale. As in previous years, this underwear costing $3.5 million has not waited. At the end of the show, it was bought by a super rich with a price of 5 million US dollars.
After the show was over, there was a grand party. On the way to the hotel, Duke got into his mother's RV. After the car started, Scarlett Johansson, who was sitting across from him, was still holding a book and reading, Extraordinarily focused.
Hey, little guy. Duke asked curiously, What are you looking at, so fascinated.
Scarlett didn't lift her head, I just bought it after I came to London, my magic bible, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone. (To be continued ^)
