Across America, Starting with the Boxing Champion Chapter 376

Chapter 376 The final grand prize

In the lobby of the Nokia Theater, Taylor was wearing a loose red dress with golden curls. She walked in from the aisle. Her long legs were still moving very fast. If you don't look at the slightly rounded cheeks and slightly raised waist, , and it is impossible to tell that she is a pregnant woman.

 Behind her is Selena, who has a small round face. Her first album sold well and several single MVs were also very exciting. She received two nominations at this year's MTV.

Originally, Link wanted to walk the red carpet with her, but she let him go midway.

Selena followed Taylor, holding her with one hand, and kept shouting to slow down and be careful.

Seeing Taylor coming, Link stood up and prepared to greet her, but the people around him moved faster than him. In the blink of an eye, they surrounded Taylor, asking questions, asking about her welfare, and more people were watching the excitement.

 From the beginning of September to now, the news of Taylor's pregnancy has remained extremely hot.

The reason is simple. Taylor is the queen of country music. She topped the album sales list in the United States last year and is one of the most popular singers in the music industry. Her pregnancy itself is big news.

 The person who got her pregnant is considered to be another king of the music scene today, Link.

One is a king and the other is a queen. The two fell in love first and then broke up. Almost half a year after their breakup, it was revealed that they had a child. The story of the two is more exciting than the plots of many Hollywood movies. People who are keen on eating melons have no reason to let this big melon go.

These celebrities in the circle are also fans. Seeing Taylor's arrival, they all came close to the show. As a result, Link, the leading actor, did not even have a chance to get close to Taylor.

 “Please stop hanging around here, Taylor needs some fresh air.”

Selena shouted crisply.

The onlookers at the scene gradually dispersed, and only Link and Taylor were left in the aisle, looking at each other from a distance more than ten meters apart in the seating area.

 The front row auditorium suddenly became quiet. Lady Gaga and others sat quietly in their seats, watching the two people with interest, as if they were watching a stage play.

 “Hi Taylor, how are you doing?”

Link walked over and greeted.

“Why did Link ask this? Don't they usually make phone calls?”

Qian Po Kesha said softly.

“Selena said that Taylor blocked Link's contact information and she became the microphone.”

Miley Cyrus said, covering her mouth.

 “I thought they would still be friends after they broke up.”

LadyGaga said.

“It's too difficult to be friends with Link. He's so charming. If you continue to be friends with him, sooner or later you'll be tricked into sleeping with him again. It's better not to break up.”

Katy Perry said.

"Hi!"

Taylor blinked her blue eyes, glanced at him, and said to Selena next to her, "Where are our seats?"

 “Link, where are our seats?”

Selena supported Taylor and winked at him, asking him to behave well.

"here."

Link pointed to the seat next to him.

Taylor said thank you, straightened his skirt and sat down. Link also sat down next to him.

This seat was arranged by the MTV organizer. When he and Taylor were dating last year, MTV made them sit separately. Now that they broke up, they sit together.

This arrangement can indeed increase the ratings of this party.

 Taylor and Selena were the last guests to enter, and shortly after they sat down, the MTV Video Awards ceremony also began.

Justin Bieber is the opening performer of this party. Singers such as Lana Del Rey, Mars, Selena, and Drake who performed well in the first half of the year will also take the stage to sing their popular songs.

"how have you been?"

Link asked softly while watching the performance on the stage.

“I've gained sixteen pounds and gained five inches around my waist. What do you think of me?”

Taylor hummed softly.

"This is my fault. I know it's too late to say sorry now, but I still hope I have the chance to make it up to you."

"To make up for it? I am 21 years old and I am on the rise in my career. I never thought about getting pregnant and having a baby at this time. But because of you, everything has changed. You almost destroyed me. Now you tell me that you want to make up for me? How to make up for it? "U.S. dollars, I don't care."

Tyler clenched his white fists and gave him an angry look.

With the camera watching from the front, Link couldn't give her a hug. He spread his hands and said, "I'm sorry. It's mainly because I love you too much and don't want to break up with you, so I did that."

"Love me? Do you think I will believe it? If you love me, you won't mess around outside. If you love me, you won't hurt me in such a despicable way. If you really love me, you will let go decisively."

You do not love me.

You have only one purpose in doing this.

 You don't want to lose!

 You are a competitive person, you have always been, whether in boxing or music, you have never lost, and you don't want to lose, the same is true in love, you hope to always be the winner.

 So when I refused to forgive you and insisted on leaving you, you felt frustrated and angered, so you used such despicable methods to treat me and try to turn defeat into victory, right Mr. Tactics Master? "

Taylor pursed his lips and said coldly.

“I am indeed competitive, and I don't like losing, but when I'm dating you, I never think about winning or losing. Just like when we play around, do housework, play tennis and volleyball, you always win.

 Also, you are always better than me when it comes to songwriting and composition. I have never cared about this. I am not always competitive. At least with you, I have never thought about winning against you. "

“Humph, I admit that you often beat me in sports, but it's definitely not because you lose at guessing and doing housework. It's because your fingers are stupid and you can't beat me at all.”

 “Would you like to compare?”

Link extended his palm.

Taylor looked at him, held his white fists and said, "Don't change the subject. You don't care about winning or losing in this little game, but you will never care about winning or losing in boxing, music and love. In order to win the game, You can even use some dirty tricks, am I right?"

Link shook his head, "My dear, don't think of me so badly, okay? I tried to get you pregnant because I love you. After you found out you were pregnant, you decisively kept the child because you still love me, so This child is the product of our love, not the product of some conspiracy, right? In any case, the child is innocent, and I don't want you to inherit your resentment towards me.”

Tyler took a deep breath and said, "This is your plan. When I give birth to the child, you can use the child to lock me up?"

"No, after giving birth to the child, if you want to raise him, you can keep him. If you don't, just leave him to me. I will try to be a good father."

"Don't even think about it! This is my child, why should I leave it to you? I said I would never let you see the child, and I will keep my word."

Taylor snorted softly, and when Bruno Mars came off the stage with the performance team, there were bursts of warm applause. Taylor also clapped his hands, moved the corners of his lips and said softly, "No one can win forever, and the same goes for you."

It's a pity that the applause around him was so enthusiastic that Link didn't hear this sentence clearly at all.

 After several opening programs, the MTV awards ceremony officially began.

 The first award was the Newcomer of the Year Award, with five finalists: Kesha, Lana Del Rey, Mars, Jason Derulo and Justin Bieber.

In the end, Justin Bieber won the Best New Artist Award this year for his hit song "Baby" and sang the song on stage.

 The second award was for Best Female Video, Best Female Video. Although the nominees for this award included Katy Perry, Taylor Swift, Kesha, and Beyoncé, in the end it could not compete with Lady Gaga's "Bad Romance".

 This is also the first award Lady Gaga has won.

 The third award for Best Rap Video.

Link and Wiz Khalifa were also shortlisted for the award with "seeyouagain," released last August.

But the final winner was Eminem's "NotAfraid", a very hard-core rap song. It is also one of the lead singles of Eminem's new album "Recovery" and has won the number one spot on the singles chart.

Link lost all the next six technical awards, including Best Cinematography, Best Director, Best Editing, Best Special Effects, and Most Breakthrough Video. Lady Gaga scored three out of six, taking the lead in winning four Astronaut trophies.

“Hey, Link, you're probably going to be empty-handed today. Do you want me to give you one?”

Lady Gaga wore a scary "fresh meat" dress, holding several astronaut trophies and smiled.

Link didn't refuse. He reached out and took one, saying that he wanted to draw a lottery for the fans. Last year, there were too many draws and all the gold belts and gold medals were given away, so there was nothing to give away this year.

Lady Gaga didn't mind when she heard that he was giving it to the lottery and generously gave him another one.

Link said that if he gets the prize later, he will return it to her.

Lady Gaga and Katy Perry said his chances of winning the award were slim.

The reason is that he happened to be exposed to online violence during the final evaluation stage of MTV. At that time, the media was full of negative comments about him, calling him a scumbag and an irresponsible man.

 Most of the MTV Awards judges are adults with families and children. Affected by public opinion, they should vote for others.

 The latter two awards also confirmed this statement.

The tenth award is the Best Male Video Award. Before the award ceremony, the media believed that this award must go to Link, because his nominated song "Legendsneverdie" was the only single in the United States to sell more than 10 million copies this year. record. The concept and theme of this song are very positive and inspirational, and it is about America's favorite football game.

˜ and Link's performance level, as well as the quality and playback volume of the song's MV, ranked first among the singles released this year.

 The only songs better than this song are "Seeyou Again" and Lady Gaga's "Badromance", but these two songs were released last year and are not comparable.

 The final winner for Best Male Vocalist was Eminem for "NotAfraid".

Eminem was a little surprised when he heard that he had won the award. He stood up and bumped fists with Link before taking the stage.

 “You don't like losing, why did you lose this time?”

Taylor clapped his hands with a smile on his lips.

 “Are you happy to see me lose?”

 “A little bit!”

 “If you are happy, what I lose is also valuable.”

 “Humph, that's because you can't win.”

Taylor said.

“I have never thought that I have to win in everything. In your heart, am I a person who only cares about winning and losing?”

 “Isn't it?”

Tyler turned his head and looked at his profile.

“I used to play boxing for myself. After joining the boxing gym, every time I won a match, the people in the gym were very happy.

After I become a professional boxer, the boxing fans who support me will be happy when they see me win. After I join the music industry, everyone at Link Music Company and all the fans who support me, including you, will be happy when they see me win. happy.

I also hope that all the people who support me will be happy because I win, so I will work harder, train, create, and strive to continue winning. But I never thought that one day, my desire to win would become the reason for you to hate me. "

Link said helplessly.

"Don't make yourself feel so wronged. No matter who you tried to win to make me happy, that time you did that to me before I regained consciousness and made me pregnant. You were definitely the only one who was happy in this matter. "

Taylor said in a low voice.

“The child should also be happy. After he is born, he will be giggling non-stop.”

 “Shut up! Don't talk about the children.”

Taylor said, stroking his belly.

　　While the two were talking, there was a camera under the stage, always pointed at the two, motionless.

Link shook his head.

On the stage, Eminem and Rihanna, who has dyed red hair, sang their popular song "Love the Way You Lie". Taylor said she liked this song and that all scumbags should listen to it.

Link did not continue.

After the Best Male Singer, the best rock video, best group, best dance video, and best pop video will continue to be awarded on site.

 Link scored zero out of four picks, and Lady Gaga scored two out of four picks.

Among the four nominations, the MV for the rock song "Legends Neverdie" and the MV for the pop song "Girlslikeyou" were very popular on the Internet before the awards ceremony, but the MTV jury still refused to award him.

By this time, those who were close to him looked at him with helplessness and sympathy, while those who were hostile to him looked at him with ridicule.

 “Would you be happy to see that I didn't win the award?”

 “Yes, so what?”

 “Smile for me?”

Tyler, of course, didn't smile and gave him a rollicking look.

“Okay, no kidding, I plan not to attend any music award ceremonies starting from the second half of next year. Wouldn't you be happier that way?”

 “Are you serious?”

Taylor asked, frowning.

“Yes, you will come to the award ceremony and I will take care of the children, and we will watch you on TV.”

“Don't think about it, I won't let you take care of the child.”

Tyler hummed softly, stroking his belly and leaning towards Selena.

The awards ceremony is coming to an end, and Beyoncé, the winner of the last MTV Awards, took the stage to present the last award, 'Video of the Year'.

There are five song MVs shortlisted for this award, Lady Gaga's "Bad Romance", Florence + The Machine's "Dog Days Are Over", Thirty Seconds to Mars' "Kings and Queens", Bob Jr.'s "Airplanes", and Link's "legendsneverdie".

 “The winner of Video of the Year is”

Beyoncé glanced at the nomination card and smiled charmingly, "Scumbag, oh, sorry, Mr. Linkbacker's "Legendsneverdie""

The people at the scene were stunned for a moment, and then burst into laughter.

Kanye West and others slapping their thighs, whistling, and laughing. They thought it was so cool that Beyoncé publicly called Link a scumbag, and did not give Link any face.

Link shook his head, hugged Taylor, Selena, and Lana Del Rey, and walked onto the podium from the crowd.

After taking the stage, Beyoncé hugged him in public before handing the trophy to him.

Link held the shiny Astronaut trophy and walked to the microphone. Before he started speaking, a burst of warm applause and cheers erupted from the audience, and many acquaintances stood up and applauded.

Link smiled lightly, held up the trophy, and bowed to thank everyone.

"Thanks!"

When the applause died down, Link took the microphone and said, "Seeing so many friends applauding, I feel like I am still far away from betraying my relatives."

Everyone laughed, knowing that he was joking about the fact that the "Hollywood Reporter" commented some time ago that he had become estranged from his family.

"In the past year, I have experienced a lot. I originally had an enviable relationship, but because I didn't cherish it, I accidentally lost her. I also have many honors and am a very decent idol. But because of my laissez-faire, I gradually turned into the scumbag everyone calls Beyoncé. I originally predicted that I would win 11 trophies at this MTV Awards, but now I only won one. Ms. Gaga, it's because you are so awesome. ?"

Link looked at Lady Gaga in the audience and asked.

 Lady Gaga covered her mouth and laughed, shaking her head repeatedly.

Everyone couldn't help but laugh. At first, everyone thought he was repenting, which sounded quite sentimental, but then he changed the topic to winning trophies. He said he predicted he would win 11 trophies, which was obviously a joke.

"Thank you! Thank you to the MTV judges for awarding this important award to me. Previously in the audience, Taylor and Selena said that the judges were right not to award me the award because they are all good people with high moral character and will not The award goes to a person who is dogged by bad press.

 Now that you award this award to me, it is not only recognition of "legendsneverdie", but also recognition of my personal character. Do you think I am a good man? Thanks, I think so too. "

Hahaha!

Everyone laughed, and some people complained about his thick skin.

"I would also like to thank Graeme, David Kahn, Ali, Mars, and all the staff at Link Music Studio. When I received the invitation from the Super Bowl organizer, it was on Christmas Eve, just over a month before the start of the Super Bowl. In order to complete this song in advance, we all spent the New Year in the music studio last month. This trophy also belongs to you.

I would also like to thank all the fans, family and friends who support me. You have never given up and supported me as always, making me better. I will continue to work hard and write more good songs, legendsneverdie! "

Link said as he raised the trophy.

 Pap, pah, pah!

 There was a burst of warm applause from the audience, and many people stood up and clapped and cheered.

“Strange! Isn't Link a scumbag? Why do so many people like him?”

Actor Jesse Eisenberg looked into the audience in surprise.

“Of course it's because he is handsome enough, talented enough, and worth more than one billion. What woman wouldn't like a man like him?”

　　actor Andrew Garfield said enviously.

"You're right. If you are an Olympic champion, ten women will like you. If you are a world boxing champion, there will be a hundred girls who want to marry you. If you are a world superstar, there will be at least a thousand girls. Women are willing to bear children for you. If you are worth more than one billion at the age of 21, there will be at least 10,000 women falling for you, and Link has them all.”

　　actor Chris Pine marveled.

 “He is indeed a very powerful guy.”

Shortly after Link left, he took the performance team to the stage again and sang "legendsneverdie" passionately, bringing the atmosphere to a climax.

 Legendsneverdie

The legend will never die

 Whentheworldiscallingyou

The world is calling you

ˆCanyouhearthemscreamingoutyourname

 You can hear your name being called

 Legendsneverdie!
