Birth of a Goddess [Comprehensive English and American]

'The voice of America's seventh season champion appeared, and Elisa Lin won the crown'

'The birth of a new generation of national audition singers, counting those stars who have emerged from audition shows'

……

While the entertainment news in the United States was overwhelmingly filled with news about Eliza, the person concerned had already quietly landed on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean by plane.

London, England.

A blond woman wearing a khaki windbreaker was in the queue waiting for the customs inspection. She wore a pair of large brown sunglasses on her face, and the lower half of her face exposed without makeup looked very plain.

This is Eliza who is now making waves on American soil.Compared with her current popularity in the United States, in this strange country, not many people will notice an unknown draft singer on the other side of the ocean.Even so, thinking of Carlos' instructions to her, Elisa still resisted the idea of ​​taking off her sunglasses, calmly mixed in the crowd, and kept a low profile to avoid the all-pervasive paparazzi shots.

Passing through the customs inspection smoothly, Elisa took off the silver suitcase she brought from the luggage conveyor belt. After walking not far, she saw a man with curly brown hair holding a huge sign with the name on it. Lisa is very familiar.

She walked up to the brunette man with a smile, took off her sunglasses, and extended her hand politely, "Hello, I'm Elisa Lin."

The man smiled and put down the sign in his hand, and shook it back forcefully, "Hello, I am Sharp Arnold who is in charge of picking up the plane."

After a brief greeting, Sharp quickly took Eliza into the vehicle specially prepared for her.

After sending Elisa to the airport last night, Carlos had to go back to deal with Elisa's contract.Although after a lot of wrangling, Carlos won a much better contract condition for Eliza than before, but in many details, the agent said that he still needs to have further conversations with the person in charge on the opposite side.

At that time, Elisa saw the shrewd light in the eyes of her manager, and thought of the head of Universal Records who was forced to throw the cup by Carlos last night, and a secret sympathy rose in her heart.

When the person in charge in North America heard the news of Carlos' visit from his assistant, his face darkened immediately.

On the other side, the car drove Eliza into the busy street.

Taylor Swift's new album after two years has received a lot of media attention since the beginning of preparation. Although the two tracks she sang on the stage of "Voice of America" ​​are not the final version, but The style, which is very different from previous country music, has caused all kinds of speculation.

While her signals are evident in these tracks, until the day her album is finally released, no one will be able to predict it in advance.Although a group of local entertainment tabloids in the United States are already gearing up and waiting for the album to be sold poorly or have a poor reputation, Taylor’s transformation this time Maybe it's not that bad.

But the media's speculation has nothing to do with the current Elisa. The strange street scene outside the window is passing by quickly, and the car slowly stops in front of a building. From the direction of this building, you can easily see Tower Bridge in London.

When Elisa walked into the shooting location, everyone was busy with their work, and no one looked at her. Such neglect made Elisa feel at ease.Not far away, it was Taylor who was standing next to the chunky man in the peaked cap and discussing something with him.

After stopping for a while in the venue, Elisa followed Sharp's footsteps to the dressing room. When she opened the door, the scene in front of Eliza made her slightly startled.

Almost at the same moment, several other people in the room turned their heads to look at Elisa in different postures.

Only Eliza recognizes Selena Gomez and Hayley Williams, one is a representative of the transformation of Disney child stars, and the other is the lead singer of the pop punk band Paramore, but they They all have a common identity - Taylor's circle of friends.

Eliza looked at the other person in the dressing room, and saw the brown-haired woman raised her eyebrows slightly, and a faint smile appeared on her cold face, diluting the "advanced face" that the modeling industry advocated. With a sharp feeling, "You are Elisa, right? Taylor and I mentioned you."

Saying so, she walked towards Eliza and held out her hand politely.

After the two unfamiliar people greeted politely, the red-haired woman leaning on the seat raised her eyebrows, her eyes stared straight at Elisa, and the corners of her eyes looked extraordinarily deep due to the deepened eye makeup , but when she jumped up from the sofa with a smile on her face, the sense of agility brimming with her body dilutes the distance in an instant.

"Hey, I've seen you perform on stage, almost every song," Hailey finished, as if to emphasize that she was not just agreeing, and repeated it deliberately, "every song you played on stage The songs that were performed, I loved them all. Selena too, right Selena?"

After Hai Li finished speaking, Elisa saw the woman sitting in front of the makeup mirror who had already finished her heavy makeup turned in her direction. Those eyes swept over Elisa's body slightly, but they didn't care. Make it uncomfortable to be slighted, "Of course, we all enjoyed your performance."

Elisa spread her hands and made a funny expression of "flattered", and the other three laughed happily for a while, and the strangeness and barrier just now seemed to disappear suddenly.

After the woman who was in charge of styling Eliza came in, the others fell silent for a while.

Elisa sat quietly on the chair, obeying the stylist's request, while the red-haired Hailey watched with curiosity as the stylist brushed Eliza's blonde hair back, shaped it, and gave her The thick shading on the previously slightly voluptuous cheeks accentuated her cheekbones.The image of Eliza in the mirror is gradually taking shape.

When Taylor took the initiative to take over the assistant's work and came over to call them to prepare for the shooting, he saw Haili's hand resting on Elisa's shoulders naturally, and Eliza also hugged Haili's waist affectionately, Carly and Selena are also very close opposite them.

Taylor raised her eyebrows and looked at the scene in front of her, "Hey, guys, get up and work." She raised her hand and knocked on the door lightly, then walked away quickly.

The four people in the room looked at each other, and Haili put her hands on the sofa and stood up first.She stretched her arms, moved her body briefly, and then raised her chin slightly towards the other people, "Go." As she said, she turned her hands behind her back and reached out to Elisa who was still sitting on the sofa. .

Eliza hesitated for a moment before taking Hayley's hand.

When they came to the shooting location, Elisa couldn't help being startled when she saw the woman in various poses and expressions in front of her.

Mariska Hargitay, Jessica Alba...

Just a cursory glance over, Elisa saw a lot of familiar faces, most of these people are already at least a little famous in their own fields, and now they all gather together just to shoot a MV .

Eliza caught a glimpse of Taylor's serious face frowning, and suddenly felt that she was serious about this album.

Taylor and Selena were the first to start filming, and during this process, Elisa and several others stood on the sidelines to observe, and at the same time, they were also preparing for the part they would shoot later.

Taylor and Selena obviously had rehearsed many times before, and they were able to fully cooperate with the male actor in this set of "fighting moves", but even so, this one was NGed by the director several times in a row, until they again After completing a set of actions in one go, the director relaxed his brows and nodded slightly this time.

After finishing the first shoot with great difficulty, the makeup artist and stylist immediately caught up with the two of them, and gave them two emergency makeup touch-ups.

Eliza stood aside with a calm expression on her face, but the forearm she held in front of her chest was unconsciously stiff.Eliza, who got the script in advance and knew about her role, naturally knew that there was no such difficult content in her part. In fact, those fighting movements were not too difficult for her, but what really made her nervous was the upcoming Point the camera at her during the filming.

Although the mountain where the game was recorded was also covered with cameras, for Elisa, this was not the same level of feeling at all.

On stage, what she faces is the audience, the microphone in her hand, and finally the camera.

But in the shooting location, Elisa seemed to be stripped of all the cover and exposed naked/naked in front of the camera. This feeling made her so nervous that her hands and feet were numb.

Hailey turned her head to see the unconcealable uneasiness in Eliza's eyes. She couldn't see that she was as confident as a queen standing on the stage, and a trace of complexity flashed in her eyes.

But no matter how anxious Eliza was in her heart, when the director called her, she had to bite the bullet and walk in front of the camera.

Almost the moment she appeared in front of the camera, the chubby director couldn't help but frowned. He stroked his stubble-covered chin and stared at the blonde girl in the picture, "Relax, it's not too late. Filming hasn't started yet."

With a straight face, Elisa tried her best to relax her limbs, but compared with when she appeared outside the camera, she still felt a subtle incongruity, this kind of inability to control her body freely due to psychological barriers. To feel a surge of boredom that Eliza genuinely felt.

When Elisa's performance did not improve for nearly 10 minutes, the director held back his anger and waved her to the side to "find the feeling" and let others shoot their separate shots first.

Elisa walked aside in frustration, but gradually regained control of her body after leaving the camera range.She opened and raised her five fingers in front of her, staring at her fingers in a daze, opening and retracting them mechanically.

At this moment, a figure suddenly sat down beside her, and the moment the red color came into view, Elisa had already recognized the person.

Haili watched Elisa's repeated movements, pursed her lips, and looked around, as if looking for an entry point for the topic.

Suddenly, Hai Li's eyes fixed on Elisa's right middle finger.

"That ring, it seems that you have never taken it off at any time, is it a gift from someone important?"

Hearing Hai Li's question, Elisa seemed to wake up suddenly from her own world. She put her eyes on the ring on her right middle finger, and a gloomy look flashed in her eyes.
