Chapter 203 MTV Awards
The car window is open, and the sea breeze blows in through the window.
Taylor was leaning in the passenger seat, with a charming blush on her cheeks, her blond hair hanging loosely on her face, a faint smell of alcohol coming from her mouth, and her blue eyes looked very bright in the moonlight.
“Are you uncomfortable? You are not 21 years old yet, so you can’t drink so much in the future.”
Link said as he touched her forehead.
Taylor rolled his eyes at him sideways, slapped his hand away and said, "First of all, Mr. Link Baker, you are my boyfriend, not my parents. Even if you are my parents, you can't control me drinking."
“What’s next?”
Link chuckled.
"Isn't this enough?" Taylor snorted and thought for a moment, "Secondly, I'm only a few months away from turning 21, and the police won't care about me even if they know it, so you care about me?"
"What about the last? If there is first and second, then there must be last. They are three brothers. To separate them is a logical error."
Link reminded.
Bang!
Taylor hit him with his fist and said, "You're too annoying. It's enough to have a first and a second. Without the last, you're not allowed to ask anymore."
“OK!”
Link shrugged.
Taylor leaned back on the seat, supported his cheek with the back of his hand, was quiet for a while, and suddenly said: "Finally, Kelly flew from Nashville to Los Angeles and invited me to drink. It would be rude if I didn't drink. This is a social event and cannot be refused." "
"I understand when you put it like this. How come you and Kelly met Miley and Kesha when you were partying?"
“Haha, you want to ask John, right?”
Taylor tilted her head and looked at him and mocked, "You stingy man, you have random thoughts when you see me drinking with other boys. As a world boxing champion, can you be more generous and confident?"
“Instinct is the instinct of every male lion to attack any male who dares to intrude on its territory.”
Link smiled nonchalantly.
“Hmph, I am not a lioness in your territory.”
Taylor waved her paw and told him that she was going on a date with Kelly first, and met Miley and Kesha on the way, and they were also going to drink.
The four of them made an appointment to go dancing in a bar. Later, John Mayer called and said he wanted to talk about music with her, and then he joined in.
"Why would John Mayer come to you to talk about music? He is pop rock, and you are country music. They are not the same genre. My first album was pop, and my second album was pop and rock. If he wanted to talk about music, he should come to me. "
Link said.
Taylor rolled his eyes, "He wrote a new song and needed to find a good female singer to collaborate with. He thought I was the most suitable person."
"Impossible! You are a beautiful and talented singer, but your singing skills are not among the top ten female singers. Don't deny it. This is a fact. If he needs a powerful female singer to cooperate, Katie, Joanne, p!nk They are all suitable. The reason why he is looking for you is because you are young and beautiful, your album sales are high, and your popularity is high. "
“Huh, I don’t want to talk to you anymore.”
Tyler crossed his arms and turned his head to look out the window.
When neither of them spoke, there was some silence in the car, leaving only the sound of the sea breeze blowing through the window, which made Taylor's hair a little messy.
He was worried that the night wind was too cold and would be bad for Taylor's health, so he closed the car window from the main console. Taylor rolled his eyes and punched him out of anger.
Woooooooo!
A series of sirens came from behind, it was a Los Angeles PC patrol car.
“Look, it’s a police car.”
Taylor pointed out the window and said.
“Is it weird?”
“No weird, so how about we do something a little exciting?”
Tyler said as he came over, held his face, and kissed him on his own initiative. His soft and wet lips smelled of alcohol, like jelly soaked in whiskey.
Link was unprepared for a moment, and the car turned a corner on the road. He kissed Taylor, looking out the car window, and slowly stopped on the side of the road.
“Don’t make trouble! It’s dangerous!”
Link pushed Taylor's shoulders away, pressed her into the passenger seat, and fastened her seat belt.
Tyler covered his mouth and laughed like a drunken maniac.
Woooooooo!
Before he could restart the car, a police car approached from the side and behind. A policeman stepped out of the car. Link lowered the window and heard the policeman ask: "Good evening, sir. I saw you brake suddenly. Is there anything wrong with the car?" ?”
“Good evening, Mr. Police, there is nothing wrong, just a small mistake in operation.”
Link explained.
“Mr. Link Baker? Hello, Mr. Baker, I smell alcohol. Have you drank?”
The policeman also recognized him.
“Yeah, we just came out of a Venetian bar.”
Taylor smiled.
Link shook his head and said to the police: "I only drank one-third of a can of Booth Light. I am very conscious and I am not driving drunk."
“Mr. Baker, for your safety, could you please come down and do a test?”
Mr. Policeman said politely.
Link can only open the door and get out of the car, and under the instructions of the police, walk in a straight line on the roadside to test.
Tyler took photos with his cell phone and laughed while taking pictures.
After confirming that he was not driving drunk, the police officer asked him for a signature and then drove away.
After Link got in the car, Taylor was still laughing.
Link pinched the tip of her nose and drove directly back to the villa on the Santa Monica Bay. Without waiting for Taylor to escape, he grabbed her on his shoulders, went back to the bedroom, closed the door, and gave her a lesson. pause.
—
It was still sunny and good weather in Los Angeles the next day. In the morning, the temperature was already above 15°C, and in the afternoon the weather was expected to exceed 35°.
It can be expected that more people will come to Santa Monica and surrounding beaches today.
In the morning, Link wore sportswear and carried a 10-pound weight. He ran south along the bay road with cool sea breeze and lush vegetation to the jetty pier. The total distance was more than 18 kilometers.
The Jetty Pier is one of the famous attractions on Santa Monica Beach.
A guitar-shaped pier extended to the west into the Pacific Ocean. He saw many yachts parked on the pier. He planned to transport the yacht from Miami, but he just considered that he did not have much time to go out to sea and it would be useless to transport it, so he simply gave up. . When he came back, he brought some breakfast that Taylor liked from Mexican restaurants and Italian restaurants on the roadside back to the villa.
Taylor still didn’t get up, and locked the bedroom door, telling him that she had an inspiration and was going to write a song in the bedroom, and would not go out for a day, and asked him not to disturb her.
Link followed her and just put the breakfast in front of the door. He carried Olivia and Meridian to have breakfast downstairs, telling them not to imitate their little master, who is crazy, neurotic, and a cave creature. In the past it was the witch in the enchanted forest.
After he and the two kittens finished eating and were lining up for a walk on the lawn, Mandy called and asked him if he had drunk driving last night.
Link was a little surprised and asked her if she had read the news in the newspaper?
Mandy said no, it was Taylor who sent her a photo of him walking in a straight line on the road with the police next to him.
Link was generous and explained.
Mandy heard it funny and talked to him about the MTV Music Video Awards.
MTV is the world's largest music television network. It is a TV channel that specializes in playing song MVs. It mainly plays various types of MVs such as pop music, hip-hop music, rock music, etc. It also launches some music-related programs and activities.
The MTV music channel functions as a platform for promoting music products.
ˆBy launching packaged images of singers and bands, they expand the singer’s social visibility and thereby gain commercial profits, similar to music videos in the nature of television advertisements.
After releasing a new album, Link and Taylor will also shoot multiple MVs and put them on the MTV music channel to promote the new songs and increase their popularity.
Because MTV plays a lot of MVs every year, starting in 1984, the MTV music channel began to select the best music works and singers of the year, namely the MTV Music Television Awards, also called the MTV Music Video Awards.
It is one of the most prestigious awards in the American music industry, along with the Grammy Awards and the American Music Awards.
The MTV Music and Television Awards begin qualification review on July 1 every year, and award awards between the end of August and mid-September.
The number of nominations or awards is determined by the voting committee and public voting.
Awards include Best Video of the Year, Best Male Video, Best Female Video, Best Pop Video, Best Hip-Hop Video, Best Rock Video, Best Lyric Video, and Best Newcomer etc.
This year Link received two nominations, Best Male Vocalist Video and Best Newcomer. The nominated works are the remake of "Unstoppable" and "Despacito".
Taylor was nominated for Best New Artist last year and Best Female Video this year.
The singers with the most nominations this year are Beyoncé and Lady Gaga, with nine nominations each.
Britney Spears received six nominations.
Kanye West, Eminem and Coldplay each received four nominations.
Green Day received three nominations.
Katy Perry, Jay-Z, T.I., Lil Wayne, Rihanna and others are all nominated.
Judging from the awards received over the years, the MTV Music and Television Awards focus more on hip-hop and rap music. Black singers also receive the most awards every year.
Because there are too many and too strong opponents, Link’s probability of winning the prize is not high.
Taylor would have won the award, but due to his influence, it is unclear whether he can still win the award, and whether Kanye grabbing the microphone will happen again.
Everything is to be determined before the MTV Awards.
Link and Mandy chatted for a while, discussing the arrangements and clothing issues for the day of the award ceremony.
Hang up the phone and continue taking the kitten for a walk.
Olivia and Meridian are just over a year old. They have short legs and walk slowly. Olivia in particular pays great attention to the way she walks. She steps on the **** of her feet and carefully avoids grass tips and stones, like She was an aristocratic lady, and she was always left behind.
Didi!
Two whistles were heard from the main driveway of the villa. Link walked over with the two little ones. A black Mercedes-Benz car slowly stopped and he saw Mrs. Andrea coming down with a bag.
“Link, how can you drive after drinking? Drunk driving is too dangerous, please be more careful next time.”
Andrea criticized.
Link was speechless. Taylor might have sent a group photo of him walking in a straight line, hoping that everyone would see him embarrassed as revenge for his actions last night.
“Annie, you know, I’m a bad drinker. I only drink one glass. How can I dare to drink? That’s the way it is.”
In order to reassure Andrea, Link talked about what happened last night.
When Andrea heard that Taylor was drunk and crazy and deliberately causing trouble while he was driving, Andrea was furious and walked into the villa angrily.
“Annie, Taylor locked the door and the key is on the counter.”
Link shouted.
After two or three minutes, he walked into the living room with two cats in his arms. He saw Taylor coming down the stairs with her eyebrows furrowed and rubbing her arms. She was wearing a white suspender dress, her long hair draped loosely over her shoulders, and her white and slender arms. A few slap marks.
Mrs. Andrea followed her and scolded her as she walked: "How can you make trouble while driving? What if there is an accident? You are in your twenties and an adult. Can you stop being willful and reckless?"
“I know, I was drunk at the time, and I didn’t do it on purpose.”
Taylor saw him watching the fun downstairs, narrowed his blue fox eyes, and sent him a danger signal. He snorted coldly, raised his head and pushed him away, and went to the locker room to change clothes.
"Link, Taylor is a little willful. If she acts up again in the future, you can scold her or hit her a few times. I support you."
Mrs. Andrea said.
“Knowing Anne, I will.”
Link said with a smile.
"Link, you're dead if you dare to do that, I swear!"
Taylor shouted in the locker room.
"Shut up! Hurry up and change your clothes and put on makeup. I will design a new dress for you later."
Mrs. Andrea walked into the dressing room and shouted.
“Where’s Link? Why is he still playing with the cat?”
“I’m a boy, and a black suit can handle 99% of activities.”
Link said with a smile.
"No! You have to wear a new dress too, or I won't walk on the red carpet with you."
“Stop shouting and change clothes quickly.”
Mrs. Andrea urged.
Link smiled softly and hugged the two kittens to watch TV.
