[British and American Entertainment] The Road to True Love

For a moment, both Tom and Aglaia froze in place. The wet and warm touch from the fingertips made Aglaia's face turn redder and redder, and the small part of Tom's mouth The slender jade fingers seemed to have touched Tom's heart.

Neither of them moved, and no one made a sound to interrupt this delicate atmosphere. They looked at each other blankly, as if something was slowly growing in the two pairs of blue eyes that were looking at each other.

A sound of footsteps came from far and near, waking up Tom and Aglaia who were also distracted. The girl quickly pulled out her fingers, while Tom turned his face away and continued to stuff potato chips into his mouth.

Benedict, who just walked into the rest area, felt as if he had interrupted something. He raised his eyebrows, took off the military cap on his head, put it under his arm, and elongated the tone slightly teasingly, to Tom Said: "Oh~ sorry, am I, what's bothering you?"

Tom coughed a little uncomfortably, swallowed all the potato chips in his mouth, stood up and said, "Benedict, let me introduce you, she is Aglaia Donatella, you Might know her. Lea, I think you know him too, he's Benedict Cumberbatch."

Benedict walked in some, held out his hand and said, "Hi, nice to meet you." Aglaia also reached out, shook his hand, and said, "It's an honor to meet you too. My sister is yours Big fan, she loves you as Sherlock Holmes very much. If you don't mind, can you sign her autograph?"

"Oh, really? Thank you for her love and support. Of course I would like to sign her. Uh, what's her name? Do you need me to sign her name?" Benedict took Aglay A postcard and pen from Detective Sherlock handed over by Ya, and asked.

Aglaia said with a smile: "It would be great if you could sign her name. Her name is Maia, spelled 'MAI-A'." Wrote Maia's name and a short blessing on it, and then signed his own name. 【Note 1】

After signing, he handed the postcard back to Aglaia, and joked: "Every time it's time to sign, I really hate my name. It's so long and difficult to sign."

Aglaia and Tom laughed at the same time, and Tom walked past you, patted Benedict on the shoulder, smiled and said, "Hey, man, you're not the only one who bothers with your own name, okay? I When I was young, every time I had to write my name in a new textbook, I was very annoyed by my last name!"

The two men in military uniform laughed together, and Aglaia watched Tom and Benedict getting along, and felt warm in his heart. Obviously, they had become friends, and it was completely out of the question to joke with each other. Aglaia was delighted that Tom had found another like-minded friend.

Not long after, a staff member came over and told Tom and Benedict to get ready and continue filming soon. Tom looked at Aglaia, feeling a little bit reluctant, and asked, "Lea, what are you doing?" Are you in a hurry to go?"

Aglaia shook his head and said, "No hurry, go get busy, I'll just wait for you here." Tom thought for a while, found his agent, and whispered a few words to him, Then he left with Benedict.

After they left, Tom's agent came over and said to Aglaia: "Tom is afraid that you will be bored waiting, let me ask you, do you want to see the horses? If you want to go, I will take You go to the stables for a while, are you going?"

Aglaia thought about it, and still felt that Tom's intentions should not be let down, so she nodded in agreement.The broker quickly took Aglaia to the stables.

Today, there is no shooting of the galloping horses. Every horse in the stable looks so energetic and ready to go. The horse trainer who manages the horses sees Tom's agent and comes over to ask what's the matter.

The broker explained his purpose, and the horse trainer took the initiative to show Aglaia around the stables.There are a lot of horses here, and there are more than a dozen horses just playing the role of Joey, the protagonist of "War Horse" [Note 2].

Horses are really pure creatures. Looking at the big eyes of those horses, you will feel that the best side of human nature in the deepest part of your heart has been awakened.Aglaia stood in front of a brown-red horse and asked the trainer hesitantly, "Excuse me, may I pet it?"

Seeing the girl's cautious look, the horse trainer smiled a little, and said, "Of course, you can touch its neck. By the way, here are some candies for you, and you can feed it to it."

Aglaia happily took the candies, put them in the palm of her hand, and carefully approached the horse.The horse snorted and moved twice, then it leaned closer, lowered its head and stuck out its tongue, rolling all the candy in Aglaia's hand into its mouth.

Aglaia was tickled by its actions, and couldn't help laughing, and a silver bell-like voice rang out."Now, you can pet him," reminded the horse trainer.

Aglaia reached out and gently stroked the horse's neck. The horse snorted again, shook its head, then tilted its neck and rubbed against Aglaia. The girl hugged the horse happily neck, with a smile on his face.

When Tom came over from the scene, he saw that Aglaia was getting along well with her new friend.She rolled up the sleeves of her shirt and played with the horse intimately.

A gust of wind blew up the girl's long golden hair, and it seemed that a strand of annoying hair got on the girl's face. She stretched out her hand, starting from the forehead and shaving all the long hair back. The charm between astringency and maturity is revealed naturally.

The horse trainer next to him saw Tom first, and said something to Aglaia. The girl turned around, saw Tom, and smiled at him.The blue sky, the endless green grassland, the blond beauty in a white shirt and jeans, and the spirited horse beside her.

All these formed a picture of pure beauty, and Tom almost thought he saw the elves falling into the world.Seeing that Tom just stood there and did not come over, Aglaia trotted to his side.

She said, "Tom, are you playing? I'm telling you, I've made new friends! I think I'm in love with horses now, they're so beautiful, so cute! Look, I'm in a relationship with them now." It's alright." She wanted to turn around and walk back as she spoke, but before Tom could even react, he reached out and held Aglaia's hand.

The girl's warm and small hand was placed in Tom's hand, and it felt so fitting, Aglaia turned her head for no reason, Tom tightened his hand, and asked softly: "Leia, do you want to ride a horse? "

Aglaia's eyes lit up, and she asked with a smile, "Is it possible?" Tom smiled and said, "It should be possible, let's ask the horse trainer." After speaking, he took Aglaia by the hand Walk up to the trainer.

During this period of filming, Tom has been getting along well with the horse trainer. He asked: "Hi, Jack, my friend wants to try riding a horse. If you are not busy, can you teach her?" ?”

The horse trainer Jack readily agreed, and took Aglaia to wear the protective gear needed for riding. [Note 3] After the girl was fully armed, Jack brought her to the brown-red horse that Aglaia had just gotten acquainted with, and while saddling the horse, he told Aglaia Some precautions for riding a horse, and then showed Aglaia how to get on a horse [Note 4]. Aglaia listened carefully and nodded from time to time.

After Jack finished explaining, he got off the horse and asked Aglaia to try it. Aglaia successfully got on the horse in one attempt as Jack said, and Jack praised her for her understanding.

Because Aglaia was riding a horse for the first time, at the beginning, Jack led the horse and walked slowly. After walking for a while, a staff member came to call Jack and said that Spielberg had something to tell Jack. , Jack nodded in response, and looked at Aglaia with a little apology.

The girl understood what Jack meant, so she prepared to get off the horse consciously without waiting for Jack to say anything. At this moment, Tom who was beside him came over and said to Jack: "Jack, you go over, I will help Leia lead the horse." .”

Jack knew that Tom was already very good at riding and controlling the horse, so he didn't think there was any problem at all. After handing Tom the reins, he left with confidence.Tom held the rein in his hand, looked up at Aglaia on the horse, and said with a smile: "My princess, let your knight lead the horse for you."

Aglaia's heart was suddenly filled with an indescribable excitement and enthusiasm, she whispered: "You are not a knight." Tom deliberately put on a disappointed expression, and said: "Oh, Leia, you breaks my heart, can I not be your knight?"

Aglaia wanted to say: Of course you are not a knight, you are my prince.But she couldn't say it, the words were too ambiguous, and Tom would definitely notice, so she just smiled at Tom and didn't speak.Tom didn't care either, he was just joking.

Maybe it’s because Aglaia once rode a horse with Tom’s company, or maybe Aglaia herself was moved by horses. No matter what the reason is, the final result is that Aglaia really loves Get on the horse.

Fortunately, there is a horse farm not far from Queen Mary College, so Aglaia loves riding horses here in her spare time, besides writing songs at home.

Time passed quickly, and before we knew it, it was November. At the beginning of this month, Aglaia was informed that the American Music Awards [Note 11] had sent an invitation letter to the company, inviting nominations for Breakthrough Artist of the Year and Aglaia for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance at the 5th Annual American Music Awards.

On November 11th, Aglaia flew to Los Angeles with Jonathan, preparing to attend the awards ceremony. The 20 American Music Awards Ceremony will be held at the Nokia Theater in Hollywood at 2010:11 pm on November 21st, and will be broadcast live across the United States on ABC [Note 6].Because the American Music Awards are completely voted by fans, it has always been regarded as the awards ceremony that best demonstrates the strength of singers.

At the 38th American Music Awards, Aglaia narrowly lost Lady Gaga in the category of Best Female Pop Singer, and only won the award for Breakthrough Artist of the Year.This is also very normal, after all, as a Briton and a newcomer, it is really difficult to win the award of Best Pop Female Singer.

After a good start at the American Music Awards, a few months later, in February 2011, Aglea won the Newcomer of the Year Award at the 2rd Grammy Awards, and was held that month At the 53st Brit Awards [Note 31], she won the Best British Female Singer Award and the Annual British Breakthrough Performance Award consecutively.

For Aglaia, who has just released two albums, this is definitely a very brilliant record. Before she won the award, she was like a good wine hidden in a deep alley. Although everyone knows that there is good wine here, after all There is no official certification. Now, what Aglaia lacks the most has been made up by these awards.

Various advertising endorsements began to pour in. Jonathan, who had been idle for more than half a year, finally returned to the busy but fulfilling life he used to lead those big stars. He was full of energy all day long, let alone energetic.

Jonathan chose a few good brands among many advertising invitations. Next, since Aglaia's positioning is relatively high, don't give yourself a chance to lower your style.

In May, Aglaia was preparing to release a new album. In this new album, she tried more different musical elements, some of which she often sang R&B and blues, and some of which she came into contact with for the first time. Latin jazz, whether it is her or the company, hopes to present a richer and more contented album to fans.

The title song of the new album "KissingTheColdLipsInTheRain", the tune was written by Ben and Aglaia together, and the lyrics were also written by Aglaia himself. Ben also joked that after a period of training, Aglaia can completely produce it by himself album.Of course, Aglaia doesn't think so, she still feels that she still has a lot to learn.

After the recording of the new album is completed, they are ready to shoot the MV for the title song, because "Kissing The Cold Lips In The Rain" is a love song, and the company decided to find a leading actor for Aglaia.

After careful consideration, they chose Karan McAuliffe, a new-generation Australian actor who successfully landed in Hollywood last year because of the romantic movie "Pounding Heart" [Note 8].

Most of the content of the MV will be filmed in Los Angeles, and it happens that Karan McAuliffe is in Los Angeles, so Aglaia and his party rushed directly to Los Angeles to meet him.

The first time Karan met Aglaia was in an afternoon in May when the sun was shining in Los Angeles. He and his agent sat on the open-air seats of the cafe and waited for the arrival of Aglaia and his group.

The sun shone on his face, making him drowsy. He simply covered his face with the menu and fell asleep.When he was half asleep, he felt the manager shaking his shoulders. He flicked the menu off his face, rubbed his face, yawned and said, "What?"

Someone laughed. It was a girl who heard the voice. He looked in the direction of the voice and saw Aglaia.

She was wearing a light pink chiffon dress, her long blond hair seemed to have just been washed, and the tips of her hair were still damp. smile.Karan suddenly felt his heart move, he thought: This is the girl he has always dreamed of...
