Hollywood Secret Garden

Chapter 735 Shocking...

It is still the Kodak Theater, and it is still crowded. Although the Oscars are held every year, and although the ratings of the Oscars have been declining in recent years, there are still so many people flocking to them when they are held.

Most of them are reporters, entertainment reporters. Here, you can get much more news in a few hours than in a day before, and you don't have to chase around. Moreover, these celebrities who participated in the award ceremony will deliberately use body language Or in some other way, to reveal some useful news to them, so the reporters are very busy at this time.

Some privately exchanged: "See there, Drew Barrymore and Cameron Diaz went in one after the other, and there was at least 50 feet apart, obviously the previous rumors of discord are possible of."

There are also loud shouts: "Hurry up, guys, Jennifer Hudson is coming, and she is holding a man."

In short, there is no exclusive news in this situation, and everyone exchanges intelligence and news to some extent, even if they are competitors.If you want to win, then work hard on the reports, so this is also the biggest hotbed of all kinds of gossip.

"Hey, tell me, what expression will she have this time, this is the first time since 98."

"Are you an idiot? What kind of expression will she have in this situation? Does she want to show us a sad face?"

"There is always something to regret, isn't it? She can't really pretend to be completely indifferent."

"Who knows? You know she's a great actress. But then again, is she going to be in this Oscar?"

"Why not? Why should she really bother about not being nominated for best director?"

"Yeah, she is not short of this honor. It may be more credible to say that she is troubled by Google's soaring stock price."

It is no wonder that the reporters are so arguing. Everyone knows that being nominated is mostly based on strength, while winning trophies is mostly based on luck.There is also the factor that Angela is too dazzling. No one can be nominated for best director 7 times in a row like her.Coupled with the fact that some guys who have been talking bad things for decades have spared no effort to stir up public opinion, it is inevitable that some people will look at her differently from before, especially these reporters who are looking forward to big news every day.Of course, there is no need to say whether there is a gender factor in this.

So, although Angela doesn't care, she still can't escape being viewed with colored glasses. After all, they are not her, and they don't know what she thinks, but then again, even if they know what she is thinking, so what Woolen cloth?

"Even if I tell them in front of everyone that I don't care if I'm not nominated for best director, they can still write whatever they want when they get back to the newspaper." Angela said to the woman next to her. Women's suits perfectly set off her curves, making her full of intellectual and strong woman temperament.

"Indeed, I understand it very well." The woman beside her nodded. She was wearing a thin-shouldered light-colored evening dress with a deep V-neck neckline. Look glamorous.Of course, if the chest is not so flat, even a slight protrusion can double her charm.

She nodded to the people around her and whispered in a joking tone: "You are walking with me like this, and you are still so close, so you are not afraid that they will be featured again in tomorrow's newspaper?"

"It's okay, dear Keira, this kind of report has appeared more than once or twice, and everyone is tired of it," Angela replied in a low voice, "except we are kissing in public here."

"Why, you don't think you dare?" Keira's gaze suddenly became provocative.

"Okay, okay, you are an English rose who is going forward bravely and fearless, how could you not dare." Angela said in a lazy and somewhat unbeatable tone, and then hummed softly: "If it weren't for... …I wouldn’t dare?!”

Keira pursed her lips, sighed suddenly, then resumed her characteristic smile with a little pride before others noticed, and continued to deal with the reporters on both sides of the red carpet.Although these guys talked about Keira's public confession as expected, and although the rumors about the two living together in private were widely spread, the two still stopped them with a few light words.Such scenes will appear as long as two people attend public places at the same time, and they are used to it.Besides, they hadn't, and Angela and Keira were indeed living together to some extent.

It took about 20 minutes. The two walked through the short red carpet, and then chatted with some familiar people at the entrance of the theater before walking in.

"Although I have been here two or three times since the Kodak Theater became the designated host for the Oscars, I still have different feelings. It's really interesting." Looking around the half-filled hall, Angela said with some emotion.

But she didn't say it to Keira. Keira had already gone to the other side. The "Pride and Prejudice" crew was far away from the "Father" crew, and the two separated as soon as they entered the hall.She didn't say it to other lovers, although everyone except Avril Lavigne attended this year's Oscars, but no one sat next to her.

As for the reason, it's very simple. What would the other guests think if everyone sat next to Angela?What will the viewers in front of the TV see?More importantly, if Keira wants to act with the "Pride and Prejudice" crew, even if she wants to sit next to Angela crying, it is impossible, and she will definitely be very upset if she sees other people surrounding Angela—even if she speaks Don't say it.That being the case, everyone sat separately, it was just an awards ceremony anyway.

"Because this is the Oscars, this time of year is full of suspense, and of course there is fun when there is suspense." The black man sitting next to her said, with short piles of black hair and neat stubble, he was quite masculine.

"Speaking of suspense, although your performance in "When Happiness Knocks" was perfect, but Will, I don't think your chances of winning the best actor are very high." Angela said to the black man with a smile.

This guy is Will Smith. Angela happened to know the story of Chris Gardner through the godfather when she was a guest star in "Black Super SWAT 2", and got the right to adapt his personal biography from the other party. , So I made an appointment with Will that he and his son Jaden would star in the movie at that time.

Because Jaden was too young at the time, the filming of the film was delayed until the year before last, and then it was delayed until last year for various reasons.However, Will, who lost 25 pounds for this movie, performed perfectly, even more perfect than Angela remembered, and naturally won the Oscar nomination for Best Actor.

"I know, I'm already mentally prepared." There was not much surprise in Will's expression.

"Already mentally prepared?" Angela raised her eyebrows in surprise.

"Of course, I'm not like you. I'm a frequent visitor to the Oscars. I don't have so many qualifications to give myself an advantage, so..." Will shrugged his shoulders, "I'm very happy to be nominated."

"You see it very openly." An Gola laughed, "If everyone was like this, there wouldn't be so many disputes—but then again, it's not like no one wins the award for the first time."

"So I just thought that my chances were very small, and I was the smallest among several people, but I didn't say that I was doomed." Will laughed, showing his white teeth, "So I don't take it seriously .”

"Well, in short, it's not that you have no chance, it's just that it's very, very small." Angela concluded, waved her hands and laughed again: "However, the reason I said that is different from yours."

"Oh?" Will showed a curious look, "Then what's your reason?"

"First, think about the years between Denzel Washington and Jamie Foxx for Best Actor; second, Forest Whitaker has the same edge as you this year. But the most important thing is ——" Angela made a long pause before continuing with a smile, "Although your father is excellent, my father is even better!"

As she spoke, she glanced at Al Pacino, who was sitting in the front row and was talking to the people beside him. Al, who felt her gaze, immediately raised his head: "What's the matter, Angie?"

"It's nothing, I'm helping you break the confidence of your competitors." Angela pointed to Will with a smile.

The two candidates greeted each other immediately, and Al smiled and waved his hands: "Don't take her words to heart, Will, everything is unknown before the results are announced, you may follow the trend or you may be upset, Angie can't buy it All the judges' names."

"Hey, Al, there seems to be something else in your words." Angela raised her eyebrows and said.

"I'm just telling the truth, at most it's a little exaggerated, unless there's a ghost in my heart or if I do it on purpose, I'll hear something else." Alha laughed, then turned around and continued chatting with the person just now.

"Well... I think I'll stop here, I have to go back to my place." After Angela turned his dangerous gaze over, Will said so quickly, and stood up after straightening his clothes.

Although "Happiness Comes Knocking" is also produced and released by Pixar, it is two different movies from "Father".

"That's how it is." Angela sighed, and asked suddenly after Will walked into the aisle: "By the way, Will, if I invite you to play a role one day, will you agree?"

Will was stunned for a moment, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes: "Of course it's okay, I'll be here anytime."

"Even if it's a supporting role?" Angela asked.

After a pause of only a second, Will gave an affirmative answer: "It's okay, as long as you need it."

The number of actor and actress born from Angela alone is enough for any actor who wants to make a difference in this to agree to her invitation, so Will Smith's agreement was within Angela's expectation.

Well, there is now a supporting actor—though only a candidate.What about supporting actresses?Angela rubbed her chin and thought about it.However, she immediately put the question aside, looked around and found out where the lovers were, exchanged a look that they knew each other before she straightened her clothes and looked towards the stage. The awards ceremony was about to begin. here we go.

The prelude music sounded, the surrounding lights dimmed a lot, and the noisy conversations subsided. After a male voice announced the start on the speaker, the passionate music sounded. This year's host Alan De Genelus walked onto the stage to rapturous applause.She was wearing a white shirt inside, and a dark purple women's suit outside, and her short, clean hair was very attractive.

I have to say that the Oscar organizers are quite courageous.Actually invited her to be the host of this Oscars ceremony.But it’s not surprising to think about it. After Massachusetts announced the legalization of gay marriage in 03, gay organizations became more active every year. The West Coast has always been known for its freedom. Many celebrities support homosexuality. Although there are conservative forces, in this regard It is still necessary to make a statement.

"Good evening, everyone. It's a good night. We're here to celebrate the nominees. It's just the opposite of what we do in previous years, where we mostly only celebrate the people who get the awards." Allen's opening remarks immediately changed. There was a burst of laughter, which also announced the beginning of the awards ceremony from another aspect.

Angela's mind was not fully on this.Instead, he wandered into the sky and thought about his own affairs, and only asked Sparrow beside him to remind himself at important moments—in fact, Sparrow originally wanted Alizee to follow him, and he had planned for Alizee to follow this As for the manager's position, Angela also acquiesced in his move and Alizee did not object, but these things cannot be completed in a day or two, so Angela still asked him to attend the awards ceremony.

It can't be said that Angela doesn't respect Oscar, but it's just that the more times she participates, the more she will inevitably feel a little bored. Although she admits that every time she comes, there is basically something new, but there are still too many similarities, and she also Unlike other stars who need this stage to express themselves.

Ellen DeGeneres' hosting style is still very good, natural and humorous, making the guests laugh from time to time.In addition, during the award presentation, there were also interesting links interspersed, and every award presenter also liked to tease a few words, which attracted a lot of attention to the stage, so no one noticed Angela's strangeness.

Of course, she couldn't be like this all the time. After the presentation of some technical awards, the scene soon ushered in a small climax - the presentation of Best Supporting Actor and Best Supporting Actress!

"The winner of the Best Supporting Actor is Eddie Murphy, "Dreamgirls"!" With the announcement of the last Best Supporting Actress Catherine Keener, there was a burst of applause in the hall.

Eddie Murphy in a black suit covered his mouth and looked at himself on the big screen in disbelief.After being pushed twice on the seat in a daze, he realized that he got up and went to the podium to take over the statuette.When he stood in front of the microphone to give a speech, he opened his mouth several times but failed to speak.There was a good laugh.No wonder, this is the first Oscar he has won in so many years, and it is normal to be slightly gaffe.

Angela couldn't help but think of how she looked when she got the statuette for the first time, as if... didn't feel anything?She squeezed her fingers and shook her head, maybe she can go up and feel it later?

As soon as this idea came up, Angela threw it aside. She had already won Best Supporting Actress twice, and the chances that the Academy would hand over this statuette to her were too small.I don't see that Streep has been nominated more than ten times for the two acting awards, but there are still only two of them.

At this time, Eddie Murphy on the stage had already adjusted, and returned to his position after thanking the long list of names.Allen came on stage again to make some jokes, and after another show, last year's best supporting actor winner George Clooney appeared in the audience's sight, and Angela immediately sat up straight.

"Now I'm going to have a tough decision," Clooney said, "I'm going to give the trophy to one of the top five actresses -- even though I don't think they're all that good. point."

The applause broke out immediately, and he stopped for a few minutes with a smile before continuing: "One is a girl who is working hard to pursue her dream, the other is a nanny who is discriminated against, and the other is a helpless and painful deaf-mute Girls, one is a teacher who is struggling desperately in the scandal, and the other is a daughter who cares about her father but doesn't know how to express it."

Every time Clooney reads out the general situation of a person, the screen behind him will show the clips of the person in the movie, and the last time will list the avatars in turn.Although the shots given are only a small piece, it can still be seen that the three of them are a little excited, and only Blanchett and Angela are smiling calmly.

Is it necessary to be so excited?Angela couldn't help but slander.Her words obviously belonged to standing up and talking without pain in the back. Few people can take home a lot of statuettes like her. Those who have really won the award will face it more calmly when they face it again.For example, Blanchett is so calm because she only won Best Supporting Actress in 05, and she knows very well that her chances of winning this time will not be too high.

"Okay, let's see... who the winner will be. To be honest, sometimes I really don't want to be an award presenter. It's a cruel job." Envelope, his one-liner elicited a burst of laughter at the same time.After seeing the name on it clearly, Clooney's smile suddenly turned into surprise.

"I don't know if this counts as a record." He looked at the audience and then at the list of awards in his hand, "but... I know we're all going to be shocked tonight, and the winner of Best Supporting Actress is--Angela Mason, "Father"!"
