第37章 生活(13)

When is the last time you wore jeans When I.When you were here last,you said.I said"what you sleep in"I said"you have any pajamas"and you said"you sleep in whatever you were wearing."

I very often.It's very.It's funny.

Like you sleep in that.

It's very funny.And my best friends,who are often,you know,will crash at the hotel room and ran out and came to visit me at the room.They also always call me a,"a beauty queen disaster".Because I wake up at swing falling ahead,and my mole is on the other side of my face,a fake mole.Not fake,it's just surreal.

It's a surreal mole.

It's a surrealistic mole.

So you wake up,but tell people,because I think it's inspiring for a lot of fans.you spend 5 minutes in the morning,thinking compassionate thoughts about youself.

Actually I try to.That's a…I do yoga.I do Bikram that is really hot.Yeah,it's very intense.I don't want to suggest it's necessary,because you will be angry with me.So don't.Be prepared mentally if you go to do it.But my yoga teacher Chersha,she always says please try every day have 15 minutes compassionate thoughts about yourself,so I narrow it down to 5 minutes.Because 15 dwarfs my mental,but 5 is OK.I try to do 5,and I…it's helpful.

Yes,it is.I think everyone did that.I think we will all be a kind of a place where we all put that kind of love here,love energy out there.

Love who you are.You are all you've got.

Yeah,that's all us.That's all we have.

That's all we have.

That's all we all have as each other.And now,congratulations,if this is true indeed that you were the God mother to David and Eden's new little boy.

Yes,that is true.

Congratulations! It's beautiful.

So wonderful.Yes,it's beautiful.

Beautiful little boy.Beautiful.

Lady GaGa的风格

闪电眼妆、蝴蝶发髻、齐刘海儿、白色长发、浓密到极点的睫毛膏IPOD屏幕太阳镜、电工太阳镜、胶质涂层、漆皮胸衣、紧身三角裤、立体结构外套、裸色、易拉罐卷发……这些时尚碎片汇成了鲜明的、标签式的美国新锐歌手Lady GaGa Style。在她横空出世之前,它们绝大部分都只能出现在舞台或者T台上。本期为大家专访全球歌坛天后Lady Gaga,她会讲述怎样令人捧腹的故事呢?

你最后一次穿牛仔裤是什么时候?当你上次在这里时,你说过。我说:“你怎么睡?“我说”你有什么睡衣?“你说不管穿什么你都能睡着。

我经常这样。这是非常有趣的。

就像你睡着了一样。

很有趣。而我最好的朋友,经常,你知道,会从酒店的房间里跑出来,来到我的房间。他们也总是称我,“一个美丽的灾难女王”。因为我醒来的时候它摇摇摆摆好像要跌落一般,我的痣在脸的另一边,这是一个假痣。不是假的,这是超现实的。

这是一个超现实的痣。

所以你醒来的时候,却告诉人们,因为我觉得这会鼓励很多粉丝。你在早上花5分钟的时间,想想如何对自己慈悲。

其实我在尝试。那是……我做瑜伽。我做的比克拉姆非常火热(热瑜伽)。是的,非常强烈。我不想表明它是必要的,因为你会生我的气。所以不要。如果你去做要有心理准备。但我的瑜伽老师chersha总是说请尽量每天有15分钟时间用同情心来衡量自己,而我缩小到5分钟。因为15分钟会让我的心理无法承受,但5分钟刚刚好。我试着5分钟,对我非常有帮助。

是的。我想每个人都这样做。我想我们都将会用爱的能量去做。

爱你自己。你就是你所拥有的一切。

是的,这就是我们。那就是我们所拥有的。

那是我们所拥有的。

那是我们都拥有彼此。现在,恭喜你,如果这确实是真的,你是上帝母亲戴维和伊甸的新小孩。

是的,这是真的。祝贺。非常美丽。太美妙了。是的,非常美丽。漂亮的小男孩。真美。

China Plastic Queen

There's no mistaking who runs this plastic surgery clinic in Beijing,there's a lifelike mannequin in the foyer,her oversized photo on the wall,oh,there she is.She is Shi Sanba,56 years old,divorced and walking billboard for almost every cosmetic procedure.

"I'm an example for all Chinese women who pursue beauty,"she told me."Most of them are my fans."

Sanba has had wrinkle smoothed,chin changed,nose raised,breast firmed,stomach flattened and more.So many operations,she says she has lost count.This is how she looked 20 years ago before having any work done.All of this has turned her to a mini celebrity here and that keeps her customers coming in.

This year,she says,about 3000 people had some kind of cosmetic procedure performed,by one of the dozens of surgeons who works for her.And while Chinese economy has dramatically slowed,she does not expect any major impact on her business.

"The desire for beauty is getting stronger and stronger,"she says,"the old want to be young; the ugly want to be pretty."

23 years old Fen Xue wants her chin bones,jaw,chin,lips and nose reshaped."I work in an international finance,"she says,"I have to meet many different people,and I think a good appearance will help me make a better connection."

Each year,the Chinese spend more 2 billion US dollars on some kind of cosmetic procedure.Many undergoing the knife are students,often paid by their parents,who believe a better look will lead to a better job.

Sanba says business peaks up during June and July when school finishes.It's all about trying to stand out in a crowd.Not easy,when you are in a crowd of more than a billion people.
