I was a bit sidetracked and talking about a potential long-term career in the US and other English-speaking countries. Unless there is a major cultural change, Celine will have to make herself look more European to have a chance to make it big in western countries (If Coco Lee 李玟 was not able to make it big, Celine really has to pull a rabbit out of a hat).
Actually, I agree with hkwilliamsiu - America's Got Talent 祗是用來製造聲勢而已, her dad will probably make Celine a 搖錢樹 in China, HK and other Asian countries and not waste time in America.
As for Celine's participation in America's Got Talent (as an one-off competition), she might go far with a bit of gimmick (e.g. singing both the male and female part of aCeline Dion duet, singing a Celine Dion French song, or singing a disco remix version of Celine Dion's "I Drove All Night").
但如果有個外國人,講廣東話正既, 個FEEL又好, 典型香港人既, 反而香港人都唔會咁歧視,- I agree, Corinna Chamberlain 陳明恩 is a great example, however, to be 典型香港人 like Corinna (who actually identifies herself as 香港人), you really need to grow up in HK like her. For an adult who is born and bred overseas, it is really hard to become 典型香港人 no matter how 正你講的廣東話.
Because of Imperialism, colonialism and 崇洋, it's more likely for Asian people to accept and respect 洋人 who learn and speak their languages than the other way around. Unfortunately, the sad truth is, many English-speaking non-Asian people will not particularly respect Asian people even if you speak fluent English - for them, it is just a simple requirement for them to even bother speaking to you. Not many of them would think: how nice of you growing up in an Asian countryand yet you learn and speak such good English.
如果你話舉例 少女時代 咩 BOA 個D , 拎去美國主打既歌又難聽, 上得一兩個主流節目, 性格又唔係美國人個杯茶,冇後台電臺唔播, 點紅呀﹖
性格 in theory 係美國人個杯茶 but you do not look right (white), 唔會紅 (e.g. Coco Lee 李玟, Lucy Liu 劉玉玲). So, G.E.M., Jane Zhang 張靚穎 and Celine can try all they want, without any cultural change (with Trump in charge, zero chance), it ain't gonna happen.
In Australia, we have Dami Im, Asian-looking (no plastic surgery done like most of K-Pop singers). She speaks fluent Aussie English, 有親切感, winner of 2013 X-factor Australia, runner-up of 2016 Eurovision, 4 years on, she is already forced to sing two 翻唱碟, her Eurovision runner-up song only made it to #5 after her Eurovision appearance (initially only made it to #37). She is still popular in her state (Queensland) but not in the other states anymore.
Racism is a really really sad thing, wish everyone were colourblind. |
