Today's third update, please recommend, please subscribe!

Strictly speaking, the Super Bowl can be divided into five parts, opening, first half, halftime, second half, and finale. The first half and the second half consist of the competition, the end is the awards ceremony, and the midfield is undoubtedly a performance, and the opening is actually a performance. A singer will be invited to sing the American national anthem, and a guest performer will be invited to the annual performance. The Super Bowl kicked off.

Jordin Sparks and Alicia Keys are the opening guests this year. Compared with the grandness of the midfield guests, the opening guests have received much less attention, but even so, as long as they can relate to the Super Bowl, it is an excellent opportunity.

After Jordin Sparks won the sixth season of "American Idol" in 2007, it became very popular in an instant. This year's broadcast TV station is Fox. They chose Jordin Sparks to sing the national anthem. Thoughtfully, supporting "American Idol" is the first reason why, plus Jordin Sparks was born in Arizona -- the site of this year's Super Bowl -- and her father is a league player and former New York Giants character. guard. Therefore, Jordin Sparks stood on the stage of the Super Bowl and sang the American national anthem, which is really a good choice.

Alicia Keys, the talented female singer who has won countless attention at the beginning of her debut, released her new album "Always on Yourself (AIAm at the end of last year, and made 1.5 million in just one month. By the end of January of 2 years, the sales had exceeded triple platinum. If the release time at the end of the year was not too slow, she would definitely have a place in the year-end album sales chart of 2 years. So, inviting Alicia Keys to do the opening act was definitely a welcome decision. And as we all know, Alicia Keys is an authentic New Yorker, born in Manhattan.

Jordin Sparks, who has an indissoluble bond with the New York Giants, and two New Yorkers Alicia Keys and Evan Bell, no wonder Evan Bell said, "It seems that today the Giants The team has to win.”

In fact, this is an absolute coincidence. If you want to talk about the favorites to win the championship, the undefeated New England Patriots in the regular season and the playoffs must be optimistic, and they are not long ago in the 36th, 38th and 39th Super Bowl. Completed and won the championship; the last time the New York Giants broke into the Super Bowl was in 201, and the last time they won the championship is a distant history in 1991. Therefore, Fox TV inadvertently invited three singers who support the New York Giants to perform. It can only be said that the accident was everywhere.

Evan Bell stepped forward and gave Alicia Keys a big hug. Although the two have been hailed as the strongest opponents since their debut, in fact, the media has rarely placed them in the It is discussed on the same platform, not only Alicia Keys, but also singers such as Nora Jones, Melancholy and Usher. Although they are still active in the music scene, they are no longer Evan Bell. opponent. Naturally, there is no need for the media to fry these cold meals.

"It's really been a long time." Alicia Keys said with a smile. Human beings are actually a very strange thing, and jealousy is an unavoidable emotion for almost everyone, but when the level of the object of jealousy is raised to a certain level, the negative emotion of jealousy will quietly disappear. When Alicia Keys and Evan Bell met in the past, they would be a little embarrassed to say something, but now the two are able to talk very much. The last time they met was at the Grammys last year. At the award ceremony, we meet again after nearly a year, and the two are still very familiar with each other.

Evan Bell couldn't help laughing, "I waited so hard for your album, and I finally got it at the end of the year. This time the album is very exciting. But your album cover should really be innovative." Alicia Kay Almost every album cover is a mugshot, and this is not the first time Evan Bell has made fun of it.

Alicia Keys sneered angrily, "There's no way, the company doesn't have enough budget to hire a big-name planner." This retorted joke made Evan Bell laugh out loud.

Evan Bell then walked to Jordin Sparks next to him, "Hey, Jordin, right? You haven't changed at all from the first time you met."

In the face of Evan Bell's praise, Jordin Sparks was a little too excited to speak, "Oh, Evan, you, you too." This answer made Evan Bell stunned, Immediately, he couldn't help but smile.

Jordin Sparks knew that her answer didn't seem right, but she didn't have enough energy to organize the words at this time, because she was too excited to speak. When Jordin Sparks participated in the audition, Evan Bell gave her good advice, and then she overcame all obstacles and successfully won the "American Idol" championship, which is still a bit incredible when I think about it - although It has been more than seven months since the championship.

And now, Jordin Sparks not only stood in the opening performance of the Super Bowl, but also met Evan Bell again, which is really like a dream.

"Evan, you scared the little girl." Abner Alfred's excited voice rang next to him, causing Alicia Keys and Jordin Sparks to burst into laughter.

Evan Bell spread his hands, "Did I mispronounce your name? That was a fatal mistake." Evan Bell actually only had a little impression of Jordin Sparks, and he wasn't sure about himself. Is it rude to stagger each other's names?

Jordin Sparks waved his hands again and again, "No, no, no, I'm Jordin, yes, that's Jordin." Jordin Sparks held Evan Bell's hand again, his reaction at this time I finally returned to my mind, as if I had been floating above the clouds and found a solid land, "I just can't believe it, I really saw you again, and I want to stand in the same performance venue as you, It's unbelievable."

"Dear girl, this is the most charming thing about 'American Idol', isn't it?" Evan Bell didn't blame Jordin Sparks for his excitement. In fact, after his rebirth, he first entered the entertainment industry to meet his idol. At that time, the turbulence in my heart was almost at this level, "It's really amazing to be able to make yourself a person on the TV screen, and to make those who stand under the spotlight also appear beside you. If one day If I see Stanley Kubrick, I should thank God very seriously."

Evan Bell's sentence is obviously a pun. On the one hand, he really wants to thank God for letting him meet his idol. On the other hand, Stanley Kubrick has passed away, so he really needs God's help to meet him.

Jordin Sparks seemed to like this type of joke, and burst into laughter.

Suddenly, the noise outside the arena started again, and then the noise began to fill the aisle little by little. Don't think too much, the players of the two teams must have warmed up and returned to the locker room to make final preparations for the final battle that is about to kick off. The noise in the corridor is the noisy voice of the players of the two teams. Because in this environment, everyone had to shout when speaking, and the echo effect in the aisle formed the sound heard by Evan Bell and others.

"I think it's time for us to get ready to play." Alicia Keys took a deep breath. Although she has experienced countless stages, big and small, the Super Bowl is different after all, and the ratings of the opening performance may be lower than The halftime performance is so exaggerated, but 70,000,000 or 80,000,000 people still can't run away. This may be the largest stage in the world. "Please look forward to me, it's best not to show the stage." When saying this, Alicia Keys's smile was still a bit bitter.

Unlike Evan Bell's live performances, both Jordin Sparks and Alicia Keys will be lip-syncing on stage. As I said before, on such an important stage as the Super Bowl, it is not uncommon for the organizers to require singers to lip-synch, or for singers to take the initiative to request lip-synchs for the perfect stage. Fox TV actually made a unified request this year, requiring opening performances and lip-synching. Halftime performances must be lip-synched to ensure that the performance is foolproof.

However, even in the face of a rare opportunity like the Super Bowl, Evan Bell still did not change his original intention. He was unwilling to cooperate with Fox TV, and his attitude was tough. In the end, it was Fox TV that compromised. Alicia Keys and Jordin Sparks are not as lucky as Evan Bell. UU Reading

In fact, purely from the perspective of live performances, Alicia Keys is a well-known talented woman, and her scene control is also very good; while Jordin Sparks is still relatively immature, but after all, she is from "American Idol" one by one. Coming out of the game, the psychological quality is also strong enough, so there is no problem with the level of the two people. It is a pity that, from the perspective of TV broadcast, what they believe is not the level, but the possibility of accidents. In other words, in addition to Evan Bell's toughness, Fox TV's compromise is also a decisive factor in their trust in Evan Bell.

So, it's no wonder that Alicia Keys has a touch of bitterness in her smile, after all, she is also a talented singer.

However, before Evan Bell could respond, the room door of the lounge was pushed open, and the staff came in, "Jordin, Alicia, please prepare!" In fact, there is still half an hour before the real game starts. Hours, but the venue needs to build a small stage, and then the declaration of the opening ceremony, these trivial links plus the opening performance, it is very necessary to prepare for the appearance now.

Evan Bell immediately gave way, "I also have to start preparations, good luck, I will be here to watch your performance!" Jordin Sparks and Alicia Keys at the same time to Evan Vin-Bell smiled, and then quickly left the lounge.
