英语翻译
Show business is everything that you’ve always heard it to be—all the fluff,the fantasies,and even the hard falls into oblivion.I’ve been in the entertainment industry a long time,from Broadway and television to music and movies.I’ve worked in TV since 1975 and have spent the last 26 years with David Letterman.Through it all,I’ve watched talent come and go,the starlets and “one-hit wonders.” I’ve witnessed something even more remarkable,however,something that isn’t usually discussed in the trade papers and tabloids because it’s too hard to pin down exactly when it happens,too difficult to paint in the garish colors the media uses to sell celebrity.
It’s almost impossible to put what I’m talking about into one neatly packaged phrase,but if I had to,I would call it the cycle of celebrity.And it goes something like this:there are many talented people in this world,but few make it to the top.The reason for this is that who’s “in” and who’s “out” depends in large part on public taste,and it’s no secret that the public is fickle.They like something and then they move on.So to become a celebrity and then maintain yourself as a star,you need to be talented,of course,but you also need the smarts to figure out how to market yourself in the milieu of what’s “in.” And,you have to be willing to go the distance,all the time.Celebrity,especially lasting celebrity,depends on whether a person can capitalize on what’s working today and then continue to repackage themselves as public taste changes.

娱乐行业,如同大家所听到的那样,包含着多种无价值的东西,有时就像是白日梦,甚至是深深地跌入沉沦之中.我从事娱乐业已有很长时间,从百老汇,电视界到音乐,电影.我从1975年就从事电视工作并在过去的26年中与戴维雷德曼共事.在此期间我看着天才的来去,无论是小演员还是一夜成名的巨星.我曾目睹过一些很不平常的事,却不被专业报纸或小报评论,因为这些很难控制,媒体为了赚取名声而添加色彩也非常不易.
这很难用一个漂亮的词来解释我说的,但如果一定要的话,我会称这些为“循环名声”.就像是这样,世界上有很多有才能的人,但很少的人能到达顶峰.原因是明星的去与留依赖于群众的喜好,并且这种东西在不断变化中.人们喜欢什么就去追求什么.所以要成为一个名人并保持自己的明星地位你必须是个天才,当然,你必须有在所处环境中推销你自己的聪明才智.并且你要始终坚持,永远坚持.成名,特别是长期著名,依赖于一个人是否能做当天应该做的事,并且随着社会口味的变化来不断包装自己.
