2 Stacey Superstar

STACEY Superstar FROM THE MOMENT she made her grand entrance into the world on the day she was born, Stacey Clog believed she was destined for stardom. By the age of ten the girl was convinced she should be the biggest star who ever lived. In her mind she had it all planned out.

从斯泰西·克罗格(STACEY Clog)出生的那一刻起,她就相信自己注定要成为明星。 到十岁的时候,这个女孩确信她应该成为有史以来最大的明星。 她心里已经计划好了一切。

Stacey would reach the very top of the entertainment world, sell millions of albums and be showered with awards. Then she would play herself in a five-hour movie of her own life, entitled quite simply Stacey Clog: The Myth Behind the Legend In her own lifetime a huge gold statue of herself would be erected in her home town, and a museum set up in her honour. The Clog Museum would not house any clogs. Instead it would contain Stacey's personal collection of gowns, awards and, of course, photographs of herself wearing the gowns and holding the awards. This would ensure she would remain famous for centuries after her passing, celebrated until the end of time. And beyond.

斯泰西将登上娱乐界的顶峰,卖出数百万张专辑,并获得无数奖项。 然后,她将在一部关于她自己生活的5个小时的电影中扮演自己,这部电影的名字很简单,叫做《斯泰西·克洛格:传奇背后的神话》。在她有生之年,她的家乡将竖立一座巨大的金像,并为她建立一座博物馆。 木底鞋博物馆不会收藏任何木底鞋。 取而代之的是史黛西个人收藏的礼服、奖项,当然还有她穿着礼服和拿着奖项的照片。 这将确保她在去世后的几个世纪里仍然享有盛名,直到时间的尽头。 甚至更远。

There was just one problem. Stacey had no talent. When she tried to sing, the noise she made was ear-torturingly painful. It wasn't so much singing, more Wailing. Despite her poor parents spending every penny they had on singing lessons for their fame- hungry daughter, Stacey never got any better. In fact, she just got worse. Every time the girl practised her singing, something terrible would happen. Once in her Music class, at the top of her school, her teacher leaped out of the window with his hands over his ears and fell five floors. When he was found on the ground, he had a look of relief on his face. When Stacey took on a huge ballad in the kitchen, her mother screamed and begged her daughter to stop. When the girl refused, and just started singing

只有一个问题。 斯泰西没有天赋。当她试图唱歌时,她发出的声音使耳朵痛苦不堪。 与其说是唱歌,不如说是哀号。 尽管她贫穷的父母把所有的钱都花在了为渴望成名的女儿上歌唱课上,但斯泰西一直没有进步。 事实上,她的情况更糟了。 每当这个女孩练习唱歌时,就会发生可怕的事情。 有一次,在她的音乐课上,在学校的顶层,她的老师双手捂着耳朵从窗户跳了下去,摔下了五层楼。 当人们发现他躺在地上时,他脸上露出了如释重负的表情。 当斯泰西在厨房里唱一首大歌谣时,她的母亲尖叫着求她不要再唱了。 当女孩拒绝时,就开始唱歌了

louder, the woman hid in the deep freezer. It took weeks to thaw her out. If she practised in her bedroom, Stacey's goldfish, Beyonce, would leap out of its bowl, and her hamster, Mariah, would leap in. Singing in the bath one night, the tiles all exploded off the walls. Performing Christmas carols at a school assembly, the headmistress hit the fire alarm and the school was evacuated.

女人大声地躲进了冷冻室。 花了好几个星期才把她解冻。 如果她在卧室里练习,斯泰西的金鱼碧昂丝(Beyonce)就会跳出它的碗,她的仓鼠玛丽亚(Mariah)就会跳进去。 一天晚上在浴室里唱歌,墙上的瓷砖都炸飞了。 在一次学校集会上唱圣诞颂歌时,女校长拉响了火警,全校师生被疏散。

Strolling in the woods and humming to herself, trees would fall behind her. Hitting a particularly high note in a love song one night at the local community hall for a group of, thankfully deaf, old ladies, their cups Smashed, showering tea all over them.

在树林里散步,自己哼着歌,树就倒在她身后。 一天晚上,他在当地社区大厅为一群耳聋的老太太唱了一首情歌,唱得特别高,她们的杯子被打碎了,茶洒了她们一地。
