特朗普的总统就职典礼将于2017年1月20日举行,此前有报道称,就职典礼的入场“门槛价”为2.5万美元。不过如今看来,这场“天价”就职典礼似乎没什么大明星来撑场子。因为大牌明星都不愿为特朗普登台表演,特朗普团队干脆傲娇地说“我们的就职典礼可不是那种风格的”。
Facing a dearth of musicians willing to align themselves with him, President-elect Donald Trump seems to have made the move many expected and tried to style out not having a big performance at his inauguration and make it seem intentional.
在没有音乐家愿意支持特朗普的情况下,他似乎不得不如众人所愿,办一场没有盛大演出的就职典礼,而且还要表现出这是有意为之的。
Mr Trump originally wanted Elton John for the gig, but he was very much unwilling, and this week there's been rumours that Andrea Bocelli would perform at the 20 January event.
特朗普的就职典礼将在明年1月20日举行。他本来希望艾尔顿•约翰进行现场表演,但他非常不情愿,本周又有传言称安德烈•波切利会在就职典礼上表演。
Now, Chairman of the Presidential Inaugural Committee Tom Barrack has said Mr Trump's inauguration is "not about that kind of entertainment."
现在,总统就职委员会主席汤姆•巴拉克表示,特朗普的就职典礼“没有那种类型的娱乐活动。”
Not wanting big names is a little out of character for a man who has a history of tweeting about showbiz news and break-ups and has recently been preparing to be president by meeting Kanye West.
对于一个在推特上发娱乐资讯、分手传言,而且在准备就职总统期间和侃爷会面的人来说,不想邀请名人和他的“画风”有点不符。
"Does he need the celebrities and want the celebrities? Of course," Barrack admitted, "but they're all going to weigh in when they find the judiciousness of the man (once he's in office)."
“特朗普需要明星、想邀请明星吗?” 巴拉克承认,“这是当然,而当明星们发现特朗普 Asked what celebrations the inauguration would involve, Barrack only mentioned balls and dinners.
当被问及就职典礼中包含什么环节时,巴拉克只提到了舞会和晚宴。
As for Bocelli, he claimed the singer offered to perform at the event (he is indebted to Mr Trump, who once lent him a plane), but Mr Trump apparently said: "'You don't need to. We're not in that kind of a framework. Thanks very much for the offer. You're my friend. You are always welcome at the White House."
至于波切利,巴拉克称,波切利提出愿意在就职典礼上表演 Minor performance of The National Anthem from a little-known America's Got Talent contestant not withstanding, it looks as though this framework will hold up a more low-key affair than Obama's inauguration - which featured a performance from Beyoncé - though it is very possible that this framework was forced on Mr Trump rather than designed by him.
《美国达人秀》里一位不知名的选手将演唱《国歌》,由此看来特朗普的就职典礼似乎将比奥巴马的低调得多 Vocabulary
gig: 现场演唱会
indebted: 感激的,蒙恩的
