Beyoncé is on top!
碧昂斯在最上面!
On Monday night, the "Texas Hold 'Em" singer, 42, received the Innovator Award at the 2024 iHeartRadio Music Awards, and used her moment in the spotlight to implore others to open their ears to enjoying art "with no preconceived notions."
周一晚上,這位42歲的“Texas Hold’Em”歌手在2024年iHeartRadio音樂獎上獲得了創(chuàng)新者獎,并利用她在聚光燈下的時刻懇求其他人打開耳朵,“沒有先入之見”地享受藝術。
Beyoncé was given her award by Stevie Wonder, who called the star "a true visionary" and later thanked her for "motivating the world to become a better place."
史蒂夫·汪達為碧昂斯頒獎,他稱碧昂斯是“一個真正有遠見的人”,后來感謝她“激勵世界變得更美好”。
As she took the stage, Beyoncé — dressed in black leather and a cowboy hat — thanked Wonder right back, and revealed that he plays harmonica on her version of "Jolene," which is featured on her new country-inspired album Cowboy Carter.
登上舞臺時,身穿黑色皮衣、頭戴牛仔帽的碧昂斯立即向Wonder表示感謝,并透露他在她的新鄉(xiāng)村音樂專輯《cowboy Carter》中演奏了口琴版本《Jolene》。
"Tonight you called me an innovator, and for that I'm very grateful," she said. "Innovation starts with a dream. But then you have to execute that dream, and that road can be very bumpy. Being an innovator is seeing what everyone believes is impossible. Being an innovator often means being criticized, which often will test your mental strength."
“今晚你們稱我為創(chuàng)新者,對此我非常感激,”她說。“創(chuàng)新始于夢想。但是你必須實現(xiàn)你的夢想,這條路可能會很坎坷。成為一名創(chuàng)新者就是看到每個人都認為不可能的事情。成為創(chuàng)新者往往意味著被批評,這往往會考驗你的精神力量。”
The 32-time Grammy winner continued, asking "all the record labels, every radio station, every award show" to be more open to innovation within the music industry, and more accepting of out-of-the-box ideas.
這位32次格萊美獎得主繼續(xù)說道,她要求“所有唱片公司、每個廣播電臺、每個頒獎典禮”對音樂行業(yè)的創(chuàng)新更加開放,更多地接受打破常規(guī)的想法。
"My hope is that we're more open to the joy and liberation that comes from enjoying art, with no preconceived notions," she said.
“我希望我們能更開放地接受享受藝術帶來的快樂和解放,不要有先入為主的觀念,”她說。
The star went on to thank all those before her who had paved the way by defying "any label placed upon them," including Rosetta Tharpe, Tracy Chapman, Linda Martell, Prince, Wonder, Andre 3000, Tina Turner and Michael Jackson.
這位明星繼續(xù)感謝所有在她之前為她鋪平道路的人,他們無視“任何標簽”,包括羅塞塔·塔普、特蕾西·查普曼、琳達·馬泰爾、普林斯、旺德、安德烈3000、蒂娜·特納和邁克爾·杰克遜。
