特朗普上任不到兩周,所有的新聞似乎都來圍繞著政治。
The new president and his flurry of executive orders and swift-moving, substantive changes to US policy and procedure seemed to leave little oxygen for any other headlines.
這位新總統(tǒng)和他的一連串行政命令,以及美國政策程序迅速發(fā)生的實質(zhì)性轉(zhuǎn)變似乎不給其他任何新聞頭條留下一席之地。
But even President Trump lacks the star power of Queen Bee.
但即使是總統(tǒng)特朗普也不具備碧昂斯女王那樣的明星效應(yīng)。
Prior to the inauguration, some fans joked that Beyonce should drop an album as Trump was being sworn in, and in doing so steal the spotlight from the new commander in chief.
在就職典禮之前,一些粉絲就開玩笑稱碧昂斯應(yīng)該在特朗普宣誓就職時拋出一張專輯,這樣就可以搶走這位新總統(tǒng)的風(fēng)頭。
Beyonce did one better: she announced, via a resplendent photo on Instagram, that she would be dropping something else - two something elses, in fact.
碧昂斯做得更勝一籌:她通過Ins上一張華美的照片宣布她放了別的大招——事實上,還是兩招。
That's right - Beyonce is having twins. And the news has been welcomed by more than eight million of her followers - making it Instagram's most-liked post of all time.
沒錯——碧昂斯懷了雙胞胎。這則消息收獲了800多萬粉絲點贊——成為Ins上有史以來最受歡迎的照片。
In her photo announcement on Wednesday, Beyonce posed in just a bra and panties in an ethereal shot while surrounded by flowers and cradling her bump in an Instagram post.
1日,碧昂斯在Ins上發(fā)布了一張仙氣十足的照片公布該消息,照片中她身穿胸衣和內(nèi)褲,輕輕地抱著孕肚,周圍花團(tuán)錦簇。
She added a caption, reading: 'We would like to share our love and happiness. We have been blessed two times over. We are incredibly grateful that our family will be growing by two, and we thank you for your well wishes. - The Carters.'
碧昂斯在配文中寫道:“我們希望能與大家分享我們的愛和幸福。我們兩度受到上帝賜福。我們非常感激家里將再添兩名新成員,也很感謝各位的祝福。——卡特家族”
"I literally tripped and fell at a formal Fulbright dinner because I found out Beyonce was pregnant with twins," wrote one woman on Twitter.
一位女士在推特上寫道:“我真的因為看到碧昂斯懷了雙胞胎的消息而在富布萊特官方晚宴上跌了一跤。”
"So perhaps Beyonce's having a girl & a boy, hence the pink bra & blue panties?" suggested @nicolasutton on Twitter.
@nicolasutton 在推特上稱:“所以碧昂斯懷的是一女一男?因為她的胸衣是粉色的,而內(nèi)褲是藍(lán)色的。”
Some saw a hint of politics in the timing: the news came on 1 February, the first day of Black History Month.
一些人從時間點上看出了照片的政治暗示:這一消息發(fā)布于2月1日,這是黑人歷史月的第一天。
"BEYONCE WAITED UNTIL BLACK HISTORY MONTH BECAUSE SHE LOVES US SO" wrote New York Magazine writer Rembert Brown, who is not usually given to all caps.
《紐約》雜志作家倫伯特•布朗寫道:“碧昂絲等到黑人歷史月公布消息,是因為她深愛著我們。”這位作家并不經(jīng)常全部使用大寫字母。
The Guardian chose to interpret it on a purely artistic level, pointing out its resemblance to "late 15th century Flemish portraiture, when it was popular to depict a subject from a three-quarter angle, often in front of a landscape, and with hands clasped in front".
《衛(wèi)報》純粹從藝術(shù)角度對照片進(jìn)行了解讀,該報指出照片的風(fēng)格與“15世紀(jì)末期的弗蘭德斯風(fēng)肖像畫相似,當(dāng)時流行描繪大半身人像,人物通常是雙手抱在前胸,位于風(fēng)景之前。”
"The striking image appeared to be borrowed from the iconic Birth of Venus painting by Sandro Botticelli, believed to date back to the mid 1480s, while often replicated in pop culture. "
“這張驚艷的照片似乎借鑒了桑德羅•波提且利的代表作《維納斯的誕生》,該畫作可追溯到15世紀(jì)80年代,經(jīng)常被流行文化復(fù)制。”
Elle magazine suggested Beyonce's lack of clothing was a response to rumours from 2011 when she was pregnant with now five-year-old daughter Blue Ivy.
《Elle》雜志稱,碧昂斯沒有穿衣服是對2011年的謠言的回應(yīng),當(dāng)時她正懷著現(xiàn)在已經(jīng)5歲的女兒布魯•艾薇。
It was alleged after an appearance on an Australian talk show that Beyonce's bump was fake. By stripping down to fully exposing her bump in 2017, there can be no doubt that this pregnancy is the real deal.
碧昂斯在澳大利亞脫口秀節(jié)目中亮相后,被傳孕肚造假。2017年,她脫下衣服將孕肚完全暴露出來,以證明這次懷孕的真實性毋庸置疑。
