Hollywood Secret Garden

Chapter 509 Maintaining Your Image Is a Painful Thing

With a click, the door of the hotel was opened, and Angela walked in in three steps at a time. Seeing that Sparrow, who was following behind, closed the door for her, she sat down on the sofa in relief. : "My God, they're crazy."

Then she stood up again, adjusted her clothes and fiddled with her hair: "How do I look now?"

"Still perfect," Sparrow poured her a glass of water. "Actually, it's normal, after all, this is the first album after two years. For the long-awaited fans, this is their festival."

"So you can carnival enough to sneak into the hotel?" Angela took the water glass and said annoyedly, "Fortunately, it's in the lobby. If that guy suddenly emerges from the corridor, God knows if I will scream."

As she spoke, she looked around and said, "There shouldn't be anyone hiding in the room, right?"

"If the other party came out from the corridor, I'm afraid Bucket or Wilder would pin him to the ground as soon as he showed up," Sparrow laughed. "As for the hotel room, if there are other people hiding, the general manager should Resign and wait to be sued."

After a pause, he said again: "If you're worried, how about adding two more bodyguards? It's not an exaggeration in your capacity."

"I know, it's just..." Angela curled her lips in depression, "Forget it, let's talk about this topic later. Even if we want to increase, the quality should be at least similar to that of Bucket and the others. If there is..."

It would be even better if it had the level of Pu Guanshui.The girl sighed in her heart and did not continue. She gritted her teeth and said with a gritted expression, "I wish Bucket would have pushed that guy to the ground when we were in the hall."

"In that case, tomorrow's newspapers will definitely have news such as 'Miss Genius' bodyguard hurts someone'," Sparrow reminded, "Those reporters can't get in from outside the door, but the cameras in their hands won't stop. Down."

"I know, I'm just talking," Angela shrugged, "I was taken aback at the time."

Sparrow, who wanted to say something else, smiled and shook his head: "If there is nothing else, I will go out... Do you want me to check the room in all directions for you?"

Angela couldn't help raising her eyebrows when she heard this: "Then I'll leave it to you, my dear manager."

Although it was just a joke, Sparrow had no choice but to turn around the room when the other party said so.He looked through several houses, and after making sure that there were no fanatical fans or tabloid reporters hiding in the room, he spoke again: "To be honest, Angie, I think you should find a personal female assistant."

"I know what you want to say, Jack, I won't agree," Angela shook her head, "Lily is only 16 years old and still in high school. It's up to her to decide what she wants to do in the future, not what I need. "

"Okay, I got it." Sparrow said goodnight without further words, and left Angela's room.

Seeing him go out, Angela stood there with her arms folded for a while before sitting down on the sofa with complicated emotions.It would be a lie if she said that she didn't want Alizee to be her personal assistant, although Lily always maintained that kind of iceberg that didn't care about anything all day long, not only didn't take her seriously, but even occasionally satirized her A few words.But whenever Angela discusses with the production manager and the director, Lily will hand over the required materials in the first place; every day when she arrives at the set, she can always see Lily putting all kinds of things there according to her habit.It's like having Annie around.

More importantly, she also knows the secret of her sexual orientation. With her by her side, there is no need to worry about what she did or said to let this be exposed.And her cynicism is to remind herself to some extent, but this way is a bit awkward.Angela sighed softly in her heart.It's understandable, after all, she...

Forget it, don't think about it, as I said before, what Lily wants to do is up to her to decide.Angela shook her head, turned on the laptop and connected it to the Internet cable, and browsed the entertainment news on major portal websites.

In the past few days, whether it is online media or traditional media, the news of Miss Genius releasing a new album is indispensable on the front page. While the main song is on the major charts, various music critics have also begun to comment on it.

The attention received is almost several times that of two years ago, and this kind of grand occasion has only happened to a few outstanding singers.

But Angela is clear that the key to this is not her album and her music.Fans will rejoice and rejoice because they are finally waiting to hear the singing of their idols again, while journalists and musicians want to know what achievements today's Miss Talent can make after returning to the music scene.

Think about what she did two years ago after she had a small concert and released an EP?Yes, breaking the record for the youngest Best Director nomination at the Oscars.And last year?After filming "The Pianist" amid huge controversy, an EP was released, and then won the best director nomination again.And because of missing out on the statuette, women's organizations protested against the Academy of Film.And now, she released a new album after filming a new movie, so what is the difference from the previous one?

Although Angela also directed and released albums before being nominated for best director, and the responses of several films she produced were not bad.But for these people, it was just another miracle created by Miss Genius, just like she could write the scripts of "Hide and Seek" and "The Sixth Sense" at the age of twelve or thirteen.

It's different now, Angela is already a woman who has won consecutive Oscar nominations, hovering on the edge of a master director, and genius is not enough to describe her.Such a woman has released a new album again when the outside world speculates that her music career may slowly fade away like an acting career and finally focus on behind-the-scenes.It would be weird if it didn't attract attention.

“…a masterful grasp of the popular rhythms, as said before, when Angela focuses on a few genres then it definitely takes it to the next level. I have to say this wonderful new album, she still Keeping up a long-standing passion in music, hopefully she keeps it going."

This is a review on a well-known music website.

"...Yes, the quality of the album is not bad. After abandoning the previous hodgepodge style, it really has a special taste. But Angela obviously put more energy on her directing career, and every song in the new album is good , but there are not many memorable songs like before. This is normal, she is always playing music."

This is a comment in a newspaper.

Where there are good reviews, there are also bad reviews. Interestingly, there are more positive reviews than bad reviews on the Internet, while in traditional newspapers and magazines, bad reviews are slightly more dominant.Angela shrugged and closed the webpage. It is not necessarily true that this album is much worse than the previous ones. You must know that she had already started writing new songs at the end of last year. If it were not for such and other problems, the song "After " and neither the French song nor the cover will appear.

It's just that her achievements in directing movies, even if she has won several Grammy's best singles in a row, even if these singles are very good, they are still incomparable.The music critics will inevitably be dissatisfied, and Angela has a long-standing reputation for being lazy in music, so... It is understandable, just like the DJ Ivan who participated in the radio show a few days ago.

Thinking of the man who always hides such a bit of aggression in his tone, Angela can only shrug again.Fortunately, he accepted his own explanation, as for those who didn't accept it, he didn't care.Although you have to maintain a good image before that, it doesn't mean you have to cater to those stubborn guys.

Reaching out to refresh the webpage, Angela suddenly found that the entertainment headline on the website had changed to "Enthusiastic male fans sneaked into the hotel lobby, Angela faced each other with a calm and smiling face"!

How long has it been?Angela Snack was taken aback and ordered immediately.

However, the webpage that popped up was only a few short lines, roughly saying that a male fan somehow "ambushed" in the hotel lobby, and after Angela returned to the hotel after finishing the promotional activities, he suddenly appeared and asked for autographs and group photos.While Angela was surprised, she didn't pursue anything, but readily agreed to the other party's request.

Angela couldn't help curling her lips, she still remembered the fanatical expression on that guy's face when he rushed over.If it wasn't for Bucket and the hotel waiter who stopped him in time to give him time to recover, otherwise it's hard to say what his reaction would be.

To be honest, if it wasn't for the fact that there were reporters outside and in the lobby of the hotel, she would really have asked Bucket to drive this guy away.It doesn't matter if you find a way to run to her in other places to ask for autographs or take pictures, but this kind of rushing around is really annoying.

I hope that no one will learn from him because of this.Angela sighed in her heart, this is the price for maintaining her image.So is it really necessary to add bodyguards?There shouldn't be someone like Mark Chapman among his fans, right?

Stopping her wild thoughts, Angela looked at the news again. There were no photos or too many descriptions on the webpage, and the text was read at a glance, but the timeliness was unmatched by other media.

Obviously, the Internet age has fully arrived.Angela thought so, in the next few years, photos and videos of this kind of thing will appear on various websites or private blogs as soon as possible.However, at that time, my goal should have been accomplished, and I would no longer need to maintain a perfect image at all times like now, right?

Shrugging, Angela pulled out her document, and after thinking for a few minutes, she began to type up a new article for her blog: "I think you must already know what happened this evening. To be honest, my mood It's complicated. On the one hand, I'm happy that someone likes me and supports me; on the other hand, it makes me feel that something is wrong..."
