[US Entertainment] Superstar

Chapter 149 The Most Beautiful Face in the World

Keanu's expectations for Netflix are not high. He even thinks that if the company grows bigger, it will definitely usher in the sniping of Blockbuster.

Now Netflix's main business is rental fees and membership fees. Blockbuster can provide these services as well, but this company has a big business and doesn't like the small profits of Internet rental.

If it really decides to increase this business, then how could Netflix compete with Blockbuster, which is in a state of being crushed in all aspects.

As an actor, after he became the third shareholder, he didn't get involved in the daily operation and the company's operation strategy, but just watched silently.

No matter how bold Keanu is, he can't guess that Netflix's future market value will approach the $2000 billion mark. Now it is just a child who hasn't even learned to walk.

The primitive accumulation of capital is too important!

Eve knew that the stock prices of Netflix, Apple, Amazon and other companies would skyrocket, but unfortunately, she didn't have enough funds to participate.

If she had $1000 million in her bank account, she might be willing to take advantage of the low stock prices of these companies in the ensuing dot-com bubble to buy more.

Everything was caused by lack of money, Eve comforted herself silently, and it would be good to wait for the projects in her hands to be released one by one, and she would become more affluent no matter what.

I am not very obsessed with luxury goods. I seldom enjoy the luxurious life in my daily life. At the same time, I don’t have a follower to help with consumption and enjoyment.

Mandy rushed over from the hotel with a small bag in her hand. She whispered, "Miss Campbell, our luggage has been sealed in the room. We can go directly to the airport later."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work. Sit down and rest for a while." Eve dragged a stool over, and a group of her would fly back to Los Angeles from San Diego tonight.

These two cities are in California, and it only takes two or three hours to drive, and the flight time is even shorter, only one hour.

Keanu went back early to participate in the rehearsal. He was going to the Chinese Theater to practice the speeches and procedures of the awards, while Eve planned to go back with him to rest.

Anyway, the arrangements for "Almost Famous" are almost the same. After returning to Los Angeles for two days, I will come back to film. Maybe after two or three days of filming, the scene in San Diego will be over, and the crew will transfer to New York as a whole.

Eve's Petunia Lane will wrap up in New York, and the rest of the show will be the highlight for her.

In the original script, there were several passionate scenes between her and Keanu, but considering the PG-13 rating of the movie, the director had no choice but to delete some scenes that might be exposed. Keep the ambiguous atmosphere to the greatest extent.

Speaking of which, after the Oscars are over, she will be filming the first bed-scene in her life. Fortunately, she is filming with her boyfriend, otherwise it would be a bit embarrassing, although it is still embarrassing now.

The flight time is at eight o'clock in the evening. Now Eve and Keanu are not in a hurry to go to the airport, but stay on the set and have a good rest.

"Hey, we are holding a small karaoke party, do you want to join?" Patrick knocked on the door, poking his head out, "The director is here too."

Eve happened to be a little bored, so she stood up quickly, "I definitely want to participate, and I'll be here right away!"

Keanu also closed the laptop, the two of them have always been keen on this kind of group activities.

After arriving at the largest lounge, Eve saw the cast and crew gathered together, and the beer that was originally used as props for filming was used to drink directly.

In the movie, this is the place where the Stillwater Band rests, chats and makes decisions after the performance. After the filming is completed, it becomes a place where everyone holds a party.

The on-site stereo is playing the accompaniment of the song, and everyone takes turns singing with the microphone, and those who can't sing will be punished with beer.

The songs that can be selected by the crew are almost all rock classics. Even if I can't sing, the rest of the people around will sing loudly, and it will become a chorus at every turn.

"It's my turn, it's my turn. I hope I will do this song." Cameron held a bottle of beer in his hand, his face flushed with excitement. He sang it right before, but he still went to get a bottle of wine and directly Treat punishment as reward.

Eve held a rattle in her hand and shook her body slightly following the rhythm, but her heart was full of fear.

I have only listened to rock and roll for a long time, and I dare to come to such an event, I am really inflated!Just like the song that everyone is singing in chorus now, she doesn't know how to open her mouth to sing along, she can only shake her hair vaguely to cover herself.

"I still love you baby"

"Don't cry tonight"

"Don't cry, the kingdom of heaven is above your head"

Everyone, even Patrick, who was younger than her, sang together under the leadership of director Cameron, and the atmosphere was very relaxed and happy.

"Eve, can you sing this song?" Jason Lee saw through the truth in an instant, and directly pointed the finger at the fisherman in troubled waters.

Now everyone's eyes were on Eve, wanting to see how she would argue.

As an excellent actress, even in the face of everyone's doubts, she was still able to say without changing her face and heartbeat: "Of course I can sing, I just don't want to steal the director's limelight, this is his song. "

Cameron made an inviting gesture, "If you can sing, then help finish this song together."

"No, no, go ahead, it's my turn to talk." Eve waved her hand modestly.

Anna Paquin ruthlessly revealed the truth: "Then do you know the name of this song?"

Eve got stuck for a moment. She poked her boyfriend's waist with her elbow, and the smile on her face remained unchanged.

Keanu realized in an instant that his girlfriend had only listened to rock music for a few months, and was still in the introductory stage. She might really not know the song, so he whispered, "Don't cry by Guns N' Roses."

However, the room was so big, and he was caught right as soon as his voice came out.

Anna is a big kid, although she is not of legal drinking age, but when she plays, everyone is involved, and she booed: "You should come to the next song, Keanu, you can't help!"

"Yes, you can't cheat!"

"You don't know this song?"

"Keanu, you can't help her anymore."

Eve was dragged to the center of the room. She looked fearless and said with a smile, "If you don't help, you won't help, let's continue!"

After "Don't cry" finished playing, the tape automatically played the next song.

And when the prelude just sounded, everyone sighed in unison: "Why is it this song!"

The difficulty is too low!

Eve, on the other hand, showed joy. She shook her body and said triumphantly, "I'm sorry to disappoint you, I will do this song!"

It is estimated that there are not many people in the world who can't. The Beatles' "Heyjued" is so popular that almost everyone who likes music can sing it. It can be regarded as the second national anthem of the United Kingdom.

Even if you don't know the lyrics, you must have heard the nananana melody in it. The melody in the climax part is simple and catchy.Obviously just writing a child's song, but unexpectedly became a representative of an era.

I thought I would be punished, but I was so lucky that I came across such a song.

Eve held hands with Keanu and started humming along with the melody. Who knew her voice was completely drowned out by the others!

When everyone sang the middle part, they even held hands and sang in chorus together. The videographer who took a small DV to shoot sideshows recorded this precious scene.

The group of people who like rock and roll stay together, and the sound of music can't be stopped at all.

I don't know how long it took until Sam came to remind Keanu and Eve to leave, and they broke away from this pleasant and relaxed atmosphere.

"I'll be on the TV the night after tomorrow, cheering for you." Jimmy Fallon joked, he is worthy of being a comedian on SNL, and he got along with the rest of the crew even though he came here today.

Eve rolled her eyes and pretended to be angry and said, "Jimmy, are you going to cheer for us so that we don't make a fool of ourselves on the red carpet?"

The man said poorly, "I'm sorry, I forgot that you didn't nominate. Come on, don't say the wrong award speech, we will treat Keanu as the winner of the statuette, if there is a reporter to freeze the scene."

As an award presenter, the statuette must be handed over to the winner, and that moment can be regarded as touching the Oscar statuette.

"Let's go first, you guys continue to party, I still have some throat lozenges in my bag, if needed."

Singing loudly can really make your throat sore. It's okay not to mention it, but it's really unbearable to mention it.

The two boxes of throat lozenges she brought were divided among the group of people in an instant, and some people even swallowed two of them greedily, as if the effect would be doubled.

Reluctant to leave the small theater where she was filming, Eve said with emotion: "This is probably the happiest and most interesting crew I have ever been in. People who play music and rock are not too difficult to get along with."

"It's really interesting, and the shooting atmosphere is very relaxed." Keanu stretched his waist. He was happy enough today, but now he is a little sleepy.

……

Short-distance flights are also tiring. Eve and the five of them were bored staying in the VIP lounge, so she pulled up her assistant Mandy and planned to visit the bookstore at the airport and buy a magazine to pass the boring time.

Although San Diego is a big city, there are not many entertainment stars, so there are very few paparazzi and reporters.

Now the reporters are all concentrated in Los Angeles, the Oscar ceremony is about to start, and the stars living in all over the world will gather in Los Angeles, so the number of paparazzi at the Los Angeles Airport has exceeded imagination.

Here, Eve doesn't even need to wear sunglasses. Wearing sunglasses inside the terminal will attract the attention of others instead.

The bookstore at the airport is relatively small, and there are some best-selling books and popular magazines in it. She originally wanted to buy an American version of Vogue to see what is popular at the moment, but her eyes were caught by the "People" on the side. ) magazine attracted!

The cover of this issue of "People" magazine is the most popular actress Julia Roberts, and the text next to it reads "The 50 Most Beautiful People in the World".

"So this selection started in 2000." Eve said to herself. She has seen all kinds of selections, such as the most beautiful face and the sexiest man. Know if you have been included in this list.

Compared with other popular selections, "People" magazine should appear more authoritative. This magazine, founded in the 70s, specializes in reporting on American stars, celebrities, and popular culture. It is an integral part of American culture.

Cover both ordinary people and celebrities, as long as their stories are good enough and they keep up with current events.

From the fall of the Berlin Wall to the murder of Simpson's wife, from the divorce of Princess Diana to her death, if you haven't been on the cover of "People" magazine, you are basically not a popular star.

As a weekly magazine, "People" magazine has held the top position in advertising and distribution revenue for several years, which is much stronger than "TV Guide", "Time" magazine, and "Sports Illustrated".

After all, everyone still likes to watch entertainment news, who doesn't love gossip!

Eve resolutely bought this issue of the magazine, even if she was not among the fifty people, it was fine as entertainment.

It's just that she bought it just now, and before she could read it, she heard the boarding announcement.She and Mandy hurried towards the lounge, ready to wait until they got on the plane.

There is no checked luggage, only small carry-on bags, coupled with the thoughtful service of the first-class cabin, it is obvious that missed flights will not happen.

When the plane hadn't taken off, she quickly opened the magazine.

Keanu glanced at the cover in his girlfriend's hand, and said casually, "This year's selection has started again?"

"Yeah, Julia took first place, and I don't know who else is."

This ranking is mainly biased towards American stars, and it is produced jointly by internal elections and online reader votes. If you want to be on the list, not only beauty is enough, but popularity is also an important criterion.

Julia Roberts has an iconic big mouth, which may seem strange to some people, but it is very sexy in European and American aesthetics.

"Hey, I thought there were only female celebrities, why are there male celebrities?" Eve turned to the inside page, and was surprised to find that No.2 turned out to be George Clooney!

Keanu laughed and said, "Here are the 50 most beautiful People. Of course, men also belong to the concept of human beings."

"Then there must be you, I'll look for it." Eve is very confident in her boyfriend's face, if he is not even selected, then this list can only be included in the wild list.

"I think you should also be selected, you are the most beautiful in my eyes." Keanu inadvertently said something that made her feel elated.

Eve looked at these photos and gradually flipped through the introduction. No.3 is Faith Hill, the beauty of country music, No.4 is Tom Cruise, No.5 is Catherine Zeta-Jones, None of this is surprising.

When she saw No.6, she immediately picked up the magazine and waved it around in front of her boyfriend: "Congratulations, No.6!"

The photo on the magazine is a photo taken by Keanu some time ago. It looks like he has the innocence of a boy and the stability of a mature man. These two temperaments are perfectly integrated in him.

"Honey, it's because they have bad eyesight, otherwise you would definitely be on the list easily." Keanu said comfortingly, he really didn't think there was any advantage in ranking so high on this list.

Who knew that after turning two pages back, Eve pointed to No.19 and said, "It seems that their eyes are okay."

That photo was none other than the one that Eve did not get selected for the cover photo of the Australian version of ELLE some time ago. I don't know how People magazine got it.

These two actually made it to the list!

It seems that the appearance has been unanimously recognized by audiences across the United States and even the world!
