It's hard to be an idol

chapter 337

"Sin city's cold and empty
This sinful city is empty and cold

No one's around to judge me
no one around me to judge
I can't see clearly when you're gone
My sight starts to blur when you leave

I said, ooh, I'm blinded by the lights
I said this bright light has blinded my eyes

No, I can't sleep until I feel your touch
I can't sleep until I feel your touch
I said, ooh, I'm drowning in the night
I said I'm going to be deep in the night
Oh, when I'm like this, you're the one I trust
If this is the case, I will only trust you."

Xu Lai showed off his vocal range and climax singing skills on the stage. While singing, he also performed a simple dance. Although the dance is not particularly difficult, as long as it can match the big movements of the backup dancer, it seems to be extra points Yes, I don't know how many times better than Meghan Trainor.

No matter how dazzling Xu Lai was on the stage, Meghan Trainor was on pins and needles. Even if she didn't look around, she could clearly feel the ridicule from the people around her. It seemed that they didn't think she could compare. Xu Lai is qualified to win this award, but she believes that they think she is a clown who can be used for fun. The angrier she is at this time, the happier they will laugh.

Therefore, she also experienced the feeling that Xu Lai had before. She had to laugh and applaud him after he was done, even though the person above him was not pleasing to the eye no matter how she looked. "All the suspicions have been cleared up".

But she is willing to do this, and Xu Lai is not willing to appreciate it, otherwise she would not say "this song is for the best newcomer Meghan Trainor" at the beginning of the performance.

"This best newcomer is really hot..." Meghan Trainor murmured in a low voice. Although she was suspected of being a good-looking guy who got cheap, she really felt aggrieved. She didn't award this award to her behind closed doors, but They looked down on Xu Lai who wanted to drag hatred on her, how wronged she was.

But being able to win a trophy from the Grammys, it seems that there is nothing wrong with being wronged by this. After all, the benefits far outweigh the losses. Isn't it just standing on the opposite side with Xu Lai?In this circle, are there still few celebrities who make enemies?It's not that they are living comfortably, so after thinking about it, Meghan Trainor took this award with peace of mind.

But Meghan Trainor forgot one thing, that is a curse of the Grammy Best Newcomer Award, that is, singers who win the Best Newcomer Award at the Grammy will have something wrong in their subsequent development.

This statement was also used by Bieber to comfort Xu Lai.

"Although it is said that the best newcomer of the Grammys has only one chance to compete in a lifetime, this award is not a fun thing. I don't know when it started. The best newcomer award is like a witchcraft. As long as It’s because a singer who won the best newcomer will always have some troubles in the follow-up development. From the perspective of mysticism, it’s not a loss for Xu you not to win this award, and you have avoided a career development crisis.”

Xu Lai just smiled at this. Bieber was comforting him. How could he not understand? But now he really feels that this jury has done an amazing job. If he hadn't still wanted to gain something from the Grammys, he wouldn't have. If he continues to coddle this organizer, he will definitely do it if he does not say anything else but insinuations and curses. Anyway, he is not the only person who curses Grammy.

Moreover, since he didn't win the award for best newcomer, Xu Lai felt that he had no chance for the next nomination. The nomination is also estimated to be for Coldplay's face, otherwise he may still have to suffer a little bit of grievance.

Sure enough, during the follow-up wait, as Xu Lai guessed, Bieber beside him had already gone up twice, and he was still sitting there motionless. The competition in 2015 was not enough, and "See You Again", which was nominated for the best track in the film and television category, also lost in the competition.

but……

"The winner for Best Electronic Pop is—"

The award presenter deliberately prolonged his voice to pretend to be suspenseful.

"Xu Lai & Coldplay's "Something Just Like This", congratulations."

When Xu Lai heard his name, he was really confused. He was ready to fail, but in the end he was "favored" by the jury. Bieber stood up and hugged Xu Lai , comfortingly said in his ear, "Talk is better than nothing, at least you didn't leave empty-handed, you are very strong."

He ended the conversation with "I'm on your side" and let Xu come to the stage to accept the award.

But standing on stage for five people to receive an award is completely different from standing alone to receive an award. Although two trophies were awarded to them separately, Xu Lai felt that this trophy...was not worth much.

In other words, in his mind, he should not only win this, but at least the Best Newcomer award, which he should not lose. The jury also went too far in voting, which made him very dissatisfied.

Furthermore, even the winning of "Something Just Like This" is estimated to have something to do with Coldplay. Of course, the reason for the larger proportion should be related to politics. "American Dream" has something to do with it, and it is also authorized by DC. Generally speaking, this song has a great advantage in the awards, which is enough to offset the loss of points brought by Xu Lai himself, and even has the remaining of.

So, Xu Lai was uncomfortable with this award.But like Bieber said, it's better than nothing.

The Grammy night was over with laughter and cursing. Compared with those accompanying runners who shouted "shady judges" after the party, Xu Lai's reaction was much smaller than theirs. At least he never He has not publicly expressed his dissatisfaction with the Grammy jury. After all, he still wants to win the award this year, otherwise he would not choose to release a new single on the Grammy night performance. The signal he is releasing now is that he will It's going to be a big fight.

However, the friction between Xu Lai and Meghan Trainor, the winner of the "Best Newcomer Award" at the Grammy night, also received great attention after the Grammy night, although Meghan Trainor repeatedly explained that she and Xu Lai did not agree. I didn’t know him, and felt sorry for his loss, but also felt lucky for my own award, and then said something that was slightly hateful——“Thank you for the great love of the jury.”

Anyone with a discerning eye could see the gap between her and Xu Lai. Now she is in the state of being cheap and acting obedient. The last sentence is undoubtedly a provocation to Xu Lai. Xu Lai just updated it on INS A picture with a "joker" expression on it, nothing else, and the rest of the battle is being fought by Xu Lai's fans.

Originally, he didn't really want to argue with Meghan Trainor, but after the party, she seemed to have overdone her psychological construction. She cheered herself up too much and began to float, and the relationship between the two of them was finally settled.
