Hollywood Secret Garden

Chapter 569 American Idol and the Walk of Fame

"Hi, Mr. Hadmond, nice to meet you, I hope I'm not late." Angela walked a few steps quickly, smiled and extended her hand to the man who came to greet her.

"Of course not. Everyone knows that Ms. Angel is rarely late." The other party laughed and shook hands with her, and then introduced her to the three judges for this audition.

"This is Mr. Pierce Heymont, former senior editor of the New York Post."

A chubby middle-aged man with a bald forehead came over and held out his hand with a smile on his face: "Hi, Miss Angela, nice to meet you here. Don't worry, I learned from the New York Post "Resignation means no longer working for a gossip newspaper."

"Frankly speaking, you are fatter than I thought." Angela shook hands with him.

"This is Miss Alvin Ramson, host of The Alvin Ramson Show."

"Nice to meet you, Miss Angela, have you considered being on my show?" A woman in her early thirties shook hands with Angela. She has brown hair and soft features. It's pretty.

"Hello, Miss Alwyn," Angela nodded with a smile, "I can't tell, I'm always short of time."

"As for this one, I think I need no introduction, Mr. Simon Cowell?"

"Of course not. Although Miss Angel and I don't know each other very well, we've met each other quite a few times." A sturdy middle-aged man in a dark round-neck T-shirt walked up to Angela, "I'm very happy, you today Come here as a special guest instead of singing and dancing on stage, Miss Angela. Singing will only make me sleepy, but dancing will kill me."

"Thank you for your evaluation, Mr. Simon, thank you." Angela shook hands with him indifferently.

Almost everyone knows that Simon Cowell's rotten mouth is the most annoying. No matter how big the target of the comment is, vitriol and satire are indispensable, at best, to varying degrees.So for this kind of person, if you are not familiar with them, you can just say hello, and you don't need to make too many in-depth friendships.

Because it's just an ordinary audition—well, the real audition has actually passed, and now it's just 24 selected from hundreds of people to participate in the finals at the beginning of next year.And these hundreds of people were selected from tens of thousands of people earlier. The difference is that this session is called Hollywood Week, and most of the content of the competition will be broadcast on TV to create momentum for the finals.

Although this is the case, there are no extra people in the studio except for the contestants, staff and the three judges. After all, this is just an ordinary audition.As a special guest, Angela did not sit with the three judges, but hid in the dark and waited for the judges to give comments before coming out to give suggestions to the contestants.

The contestants in this field were not many and their quality was uneven. Several performances were marked with three crosses and eliminated before the end of the show. One even fell to the ground while dancing because of excitement and couldn't get up for a long time.At this time Angela is very depressed. As a special guest, no matter whether the opponent is passed or eliminated, she has to come out and say a few comments. Those who passed are fortunately the most excited to hold her hand and say a few words, but can be eliminated. Everyone has to come up sadly and ask for a hug.

Angela had to put on a nice face even when she was upset, after all, it was her job.Fortunately, these guys all knew that a hug was all they needed, and Angela was also very careful, so nothing went wrong.

Even so, she was still harassed - the other party secretly pinched her buttocks lightly.The reason for this is not unrelated to Angela's carelessness, but the most important thing is because... the other party is a 17-year-old girl!

Today's children are bolder than each other.Angela murmured in her heart.Think about the appearance of the eliminated girl who burst into tears after eating her own tofu. If there was no one around, the other party might pull her to show love.

"There is only the last contestant left, Miss Angela." An assistant came over at this moment.

"Okay, I'll come." Angela nodded and returned to her hidden position.

It's all right, it's finally over, the next time I'm going to show up is the time for the finals.Angela just breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and then her eyes widened involuntarily. The person who appeared on the stage was actually a Chinese!

There are about twenty contestants today, and this is the first time there are Chinese.It’s just that this guy is really unphotogenic, not to mention the chubby face, the forehead that lacks hair is shiny, the eyes are thin and long, and the worst thing is that those buck teeth actually give people the feeling of being pitted, so when he smiles It's really unbearable.

Angela shook her head and turned her attention to other places. Well, although she looks a bit shabby, she may sing well. There have been a few players like this before.

However, the idea is good but the reality is cruel. As soon as this guy opened his mouth, the scene was turned upside down. Pierce Heymont covered his face with something, and Simon Cowell slumped directly on the chair. Only Alwyn · Lamson barely beat the time with his hands, his face was full of expressions that wanted to laugh but couldn't.

Angela in the corner held her face in her hands with a wry smile. This man is so superb. Not only does he look so honorable, but he is still... He seems to be singing Ricky Martin's song. Frankly speaking, it uses The description of tone incomplete is already a compliment.

"Okay, okay, let's call it a day." Simon Cowell, who couldn't take it anymore, began to knock on the table.

You know, this guy who is famous for his poisonous tongue has just stabbed a young man to pieces with the phrase "Your singing voice reminds me of a humming wild boar". After suffering so much, he will definitely not show mercy.

"You can't sing at all, and you can't dance at all. You are completely wasting our time by appearing here. What else do you have to say?" Cowell spread his hands, almost writing on his face: you It's rubbish!

Angela couldn't bear to cover her eyes. Although this Chinese man didn't look very good and sang badly, he was singing hard no matter what. She really didn't want to see him in despair.

However, after a few seconds of silence, the man said in an extremely serious tone: "I have tried my best, and I have no regrets about it."

Taking away the hand that covered her eyes, Angela looked at the Chinese man in the venue in surprise, his ugly appearance suddenly became a little cute.The other two judges had already applauded at this time, and Pierce Heymont even nodded while clapping his hands: "That's right, young man."

"It's really good. This kind of spirit is worth encouraging." Angela also clapped her hands and walked out from the side, smiling and nodding to the men in the venue: "You sing very badly, and the typhoon is not very good. If you want to enter If you are in the entertainment industry, you can consider taking an alternative route to become a comedian. In short, give full play to your characteristics and strengths, and you will have your own place."

After she paused here, she looked at Simon Cowell, who was still slumped on the chair, mockingly: "Frankly speaking, I really hope that you will succeed, so that you can prove some people wrong."

Sitting up straight, Simon Cowell raised his hands and shook his head, but said nothing.

"Thank you for your encouragement, Ms. Angela, and thank you all the judges." The Chinese man in the center of the venue bowed slightly, and then left the stage calmly.

In fact, many people have said this when doing things, but when they really fail, they rarely accept it calmly like this person, especially what they have to do is very important to themselves.Angela thought so on the way to leave.

It's like what I'm doing, but if I fail, can I accept it calmly like him?You know, in some respects, this plan can only succeed and not fail.Angela suddenly laughed silently, and shook her head lightly. The matter has not been completed yet, so why bother to think about the result?That guy probably only thought about how to express himself before going on stage, so no matter what, let's work hard to complete his plan.

By the way, what's that guy's name?Judging from the spelling on the list, it seems to be called Kong Huandong or something... Forget it, don't think about it, there is an important ceremony to attend tomorrow, and then hurry back to Boston to continue post-production.

"... You can see that a large crowd has gathered at the scene. Although there is still some time before the official start, all the people are still excitedly waiting for the arrival of their idols, including us and our peers." In the camera After the former reporter finished speaking, the cameraman gave a thumbs up: "Nice job, Haber."

"Thank you," Haber, who put away the microphone, handed it to the assistant, took a small glass of water and drank it clean, then nodded, "Pack up guys, get ready, we have to grab a good angle later .”

"Don't worry, Haber, when the time comes, Brian will definitely snatch a good position at the first time. You must know that he is Miss Angel's fan." Another assistant said jokingly.

"So what, can't I have my own idol?" The cameraman sneered disapprovingly, "She is a smart, beautiful, wise and rich young woman, every man would like to have her."

"When I got her, I also got a nightmare," the first assistant interfaced. "Think about it, how many men can reach her height? If you marry her as your wife, you will have absolutely no status in the family. The food is not that good."

"Come on, Ralph, you're just jealous, even if you wanted to have sex with her." The second assistant shrugged.

"I'm telling you the truth, Patrick, it's not jealousy," Assistant Ralph shook his head, "I think there's a good chance she's gay, thinking about stronger women like...Judy Fowler Sturt?"

"Jodie Foster never admitted she was gay." Harper clapped Ralph on the shoulder hard.

"Ha, Ralph, you've offended both of them at the same time, and you're dead." Patrick laughed, and as soon as he finished speaking, Harper's voice sounded: "Hurry up! Hurry up! Here she comes! "

Several people immediately followed the flow of people to the intersection, occupying a powerful terrain in time.

"Dear viewers, you can see that her car has parked in front of the red carpet," followed Haber's voice, and the camera turned to the open car door, "See, Angela has come out, wow, She's as pretty and cute as ever. But, frankly, I'd prefer her in a dress, she's always stingy with her sexy side."

Having said that, Angela, who is wearing a t-shirt, canvas shoes and jeans, still attracts countless eyes, including Harper. Even though she wears light makeup and no jewelry, the tight-fitting t-shirt and jeans still make her curvaceous The body is fully outlined, but the more exposed it is, the sexier it is not necessarily.

"Angela has stood in front of her own star, and after hugging Mr. Johnny Grant, she received the medal from the honorary mayor of Hollywood." Haber explained eloquently, "This is The 2112th star on the Avenue of Stars is really very commemorative. Let's take a closer look, there are actually three stars! But it is not surprising at all, considering how many achievements she has made. Frankly speaking, I Think that if the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce invites her to the Walk of Fame in ten years, Angela may well become the second Kim Autry!"

Angela held the medal and turned her body from time to time to let the reporters on the scene press the flashlight. After a long while, under the reminder of Johnny Grant, she came to the upright microphone and gave a speech:

"Thank you to everyone who was there, and to the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce for this honor. When I first started acting 10 years ago, I never imagined that I would one day make my own star here.

Today I stand here full of excitement, recalling all the achievements I have made. First of all, I would like to thank my parents. It is their openness and tolerance that made me come to where I am today step by step.Then there was my agent, who for a long time was the babysitter.Oh, and Ms. Nancy, the director I worked with for the first time; Mr. George, who first invited me, and so on.There are many, many people, my family and my friends, who should be grateful.

They have accompanied me through ten years, watching me become an actor, a singer, and a director, and watching me excitedly do my own business.This is an amazing journey. Although I got my own star here today, this journey is not yet complete. I hope that no matter what happens, they will always accompany me on this journey. Thank you everyone! "

There was warm applause, and Angela kept nodding her head and holding the medal for the reporters to continue taking pictures.However, no one knew, but at this moment her heart was full of disapproval.

"I was forced." Angela said to Sparrow after learning that the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce had approved her application to award herself a star and was invited to attend the star awarding ceremony in mid-October.

In terms of qualifications, as early as 99, when she was nominated for the best director for the first time, she was already eligible to leave her name on the Avenue of Stars. After all, she is incomparable regardless of her wealth or worth.

It's just that Angela didn't have the idea of ​​declaring at all. Whether the company wanted to declare for her or the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce lobbied, she politely declined.In her plan, even if she wants to stay, she has to wait until she completes the plan.

However, when the person in charge of the chamber of commerce approached her again at the beginning of this month, Angela couldn't refuse, because there was also an official from the state government who came at the same time as the person in charge.

"We need you, Miss Angela." The other party said to her very sincerely, "America needs an idol like you."

Angela was speechless. After a huge disaster, the United States urgently needs to erect heroic idols from all walks of life to cheer up the people. Who else in the entertainment circle can fight gangsters in the street and rescue people at the scene of disasters, and then quickly lead the way? Is it appropriate to hold a charity show for Miss Angel?

If this is the case, then agree, anyway, it's just leaving a name on the Avenue of Stars.What's interesting is that because of the special situation, not only does it not need to apply five years in advance, but even the fee can be paid after the ceremony—Miss Angel is not short of money anyway—and the location is also well chosen, Hollywood Silver Casting Four on La Brea Avenue In front of the Lady Gazebo, unlike some the stars are placed next to the fire hydrants.Of course, the most surprising thing is that they gave her an extra star.

You must know that although Angela has made remarkable achievements in the film industry and the record industry, she has not made much achievements in the TV industry. The only Emmy trophy she won was when she appeared in "Friends".

Faced with such a situation, it was not difficult to guess what they wanted to do, and Angela went with it. Anyway, just don't promote her as the big bat or the iron man.

"I'm so glad you came to watch the ceremony, Nicole." Angela smiled and hugged Nicole Kidman, and then extended her hand to Naomi Watts with great interest: "You too, Naomi ,Nice to meet you."

"Nicole asked me all over," Naomi hugged her, "Congratulations, Angie."

"Thank you, I watched "Mulholland Drive" just released, and to be honest, you did a great job." Angela said with a smile, but then shrugged: "But I don't like that movie."

"Why, can't even Miss Genius understand?" Nicole asked jokingly.

"Come on, Lynch himself admitted that the movie didn't talk about anything, and all the content was the audience talking to themselves." Angela waved her hand disapprovingly, then narrowed her eyes as she remembered something. Sweeping back and forth, and then half-jokingly and half-probingly asking: "I suddenly discovered that, whether it's a premiere or a public welfare event, wherever Nicole appears, Nami will appear...Would you be Are you dating?"

"Yeah, we are indeed dating, in front of the reporter's camera, so don't tell it, okay?" Nicole said seriously.

Angela immediately nodded with a tacit expression, when a reporter's voice came from the side: "Miss Angela, can you turn around?"

The girl rolled her eyes, turned around and then smiled.At the same time, Nicole secretly gave Naomi a comforting look.
