近日，著名歌手莫文蔚登上了熱搜。原因是，她在新加坡記者會(huì)上突然宣布將不再舉辦大型巡演，令所有人錯(cuò)愕。

不過，她在采訪中也表示自己永遠(yuǎn)不會(huì)退休，只是人生進(jìn)入了下半場，自己想要尋求新的挑戰(zhàn)——做出屬于華人的音樂劇。

有相關(guān)媒體猜測，進(jìn)入人生下半場的莫文蔚可能與著名歌手蔡健雅和著名導(dǎo)演李安合作拍攝音樂劇。來看看具體的報(bào)道。

溫馨提示：可以邊聽邊看↓↓（這首普特君很喜歡?。?/span>

It's official: Hong Kong pop diva Karen Mok will retire from concert touring after the end of her current world tour, aptly titled The Ultimate Karen Mok Show, which celebrates her 25 years in show business.

官宣了。隨著為慶祝自己從業(yè)25年而舉辦的“絕色·世界巡回演唱會(huì)”接近尾聲，香港流行音樂天后莫文蔚稱結(jié)束后將不再舉辦巡演。

This means her one-night-only show at the Singapore Indoor Stadium on Jun 15 will mark the last time the singer-actress will stage a 'pop concert of this scale' here in Singapore.

這也就意味著莫文蔚6月15號(hào)晚在新加坡室內(nèi)體育館的演唱會(huì)將成為她最后一場“具有巡演規(guī)模”的演出。

“It's the gut feel that now it's the right time,” she told CNA Lifestyle during an interview in Singapore to promote the concert. “Even on day one, when I started my career, I told myself ‘One should really try to quit at the top, at the peak.’”

“直覺告訴我是時(shí)候了”，莫文蔚在新加坡為演唱會(huì)做宣傳時(shí)這樣說?！皬奈胰胄械牡谝惶炱?，我就告訴自己‘要學(xué)會(huì)急流勇退，或者說是功成身退’”。

“It will be very difficult because first of all you need to know when your peak is, before you start going downhill,” she added ,with a laugh.

“這樣做很難，因?yàn)樵谧呦缕侣分澳憔托枰雷约汉螘r(shí)才能到達(dá)成功的頂峰”，莫文蔚笑著說。

She explained that “because this industry is very addictive”, one would always feel that their next peak or next high “will be the next one”.

她還解釋說“因?yàn)樽鲞@一行特別容易上癮”，容易讓人們產(chǎn)生一種感覺，即事業(yè)的下一個(gè)頂點(diǎn)或高峰期“會(huì)在下一個(gè)階段到來”。

“And that it will keep getting better and better,” she said. “But no, at some point, it will max out. And you need to have the wisdom of that. I feel that now is the best time, for me to call it a day and move on to the next thing.”

“并且會(huì)感覺自己的事業(yè)會(huì)越來越蒸蒸日上”，莫文蔚說。“但是，事實(shí)不是這樣的。事業(yè)在某個(gè)節(jié)點(diǎn)會(huì)達(dá)到巔峰。然后，你就需要做出明智的選擇。我感覺現(xiàn)在就是最佳時(shí)機(jī)，是時(shí)候進(jìn)入人生的下半場了?！?/span>

This is not to say that she thinks she will go downhill, and the almost 49-year-old (her birthday is Jun 2) would like to underscore.

這不是說莫文蔚會(huì)走下坡路，今年即將年滿49歲（6月2日生日）的她還強(qiáng)調(diào)說。

“But you have to acknowledge that physical state, your stamina and all these other things,” she said. “Things that you have to consider as a performer and that you have to take into account.” 

“但是，你需要清楚自己的身體狀態(tài)，精力和其他一些因素”，她說?！澳阈枰砸粋€(gè)表演者的身份去考慮你需要考慮的一些事情”。

Twenty-six long years in the entertainment business has seen her go from stride to stride: From releasing more than 30 music albums and picking up Golden Melody Awards (the most prestigious awards in Chinese music) along the way, to collecting accolades and nominations for her acting in a diverse filmography that includes God Of Cookery, Tempting Heart and Man of Tai Chi with Keanu Reeves.

長達(dá)26年的從業(yè)生涯見證了莫文蔚一步步的成長。她發(fā)行了30多張專輯，多次斬獲臺(tái)灣金曲獎(jiǎng)（華語流行音樂最權(quán)威的獎(jiǎng)項(xiàng)），出演包括《食神》，《心動(dòng)》以及與基努·李維斯（Keanu Reeves）一同出演的《太極俠》在內(nèi)的多部影片為她贏得廣泛的贊譽(yù)和獎(jiǎng)項(xiàng)提名。

But retiring from concert touring does not mean retiring from creating music, making movies or even future collaborations.

莫文蔚只是不再開巡演，這并不代表她徹底與音樂創(chuàng)作絕緣。她在未來還會(huì)與其他人進(jìn)行電影或音樂上的合作。

莫文蔚在接受新加坡媒體采訪時(shí)，還稱期待與曾獲得奧斯卡最佳導(dǎo)演獎(jiǎng)的李安合作。她是這樣說的。

'He is my hero... he can tackle any film genre' she gushed. 'I got to meet him when I performed at the Golden Horse Awards ceremony last year and I told him that if he should ever consider doing a film musical, he should remember me.'

“他是我的英雄...他可以拍任何題材的電影”，莫文蔚談起李安時(shí)全是溢美之詞?！叭ツ?，我在金馬獎(jiǎng)表演的時(shí)候見到他了，我告訴他可以考慮拍一部歌舞片，他應(yīng)該還記得”。

On the Singapore front, she would love to collaborate directly with Singapore's Tanya Chua ('I know her very well') and perhaps land a part in the Crazy Rich Asians sequel.

面對新加坡媒體，莫文蔚還說她很想與蔡健雅（“我跟她很熟”）合作，她兩可能在《摘金奇緣》續(xù)集當(dāng)中出演某個(gè)角色。

How about a Crazy Rich Asians musical instead, we suggest?

把《摘金奇緣》拍成音樂劇，你看這個(gè)提議如何？

'Oh wow! Why not? I think that would be really fun!' she replied. 'Thanks for the idea!'

“哇！為什么不呢？我想那會(huì)非常有意思”，莫文蔚回應(yīng)說。“謝謝你出的好主意”！

自稱為“工作狂”的莫文蔚“人生下半場”會(huì)有哪些計(jì)劃呢？在中國將音樂劇發(fā)展成一項(xiàng)產(chǎn)業(yè)可能會(huì)是其中之一。

“You look at China or this whole greater China, it’s so massive! It would be stupid to not have a musical theatre industry,” she said. “We need something like that. London has their West End, and New York has Broadway. I think Chinese audiences are ready for their own version.”

“中國地大物博，所以非常適合發(fā)展音樂劇產(chǎn)業(yè)”，莫文蔚說?！拔覀冃枰约旱囊魳穭?。倫敦有西區(qū)，紐約有百老匯。我認(rèn)為中國觀眾正在翹首以盼”。

Mok, who once played Mimi in the Asian tour of the Broadway hit Rent in 2005, believes that “musical theatre is the highest form of performing”.

2005年，百老匯音樂劇《吉屋出租》亞洲巡演，扮演“Mimi”的正是莫文蔚。她認(rèn)為“音樂劇是表演的最高形式”。

“You have to incorporate singing, dancing, acting – and do it all at once,” she said. “I think I'm in the position to do that. It's kind of like my job. My mission. My calling.

“你需要將唱歌、跳舞和表演融于一體，一次性完成”，莫文蔚說?！拔艺J(rèn)為我很適合演音樂劇，有點(diǎn)像我的工作，同時(shí)也是我的使命和我的責(zé)任?！?/span>

“I hope the first project that I do will not be a franchise like the Lion King or something,” she added with a smile. “To actually grow such an industry we need original material so hopefully I will be able to make some contributions towards this.”

“我希望出演的第一場音樂劇不是像《獅子王》和其他一些作品那樣經(jīng)典”，莫文蔚笑著說。“發(fā)展音樂劇產(chǎn)業(yè)，我們需要原創(chuàng)題材，我希望能為此盡自己的一份綿薄之力”。

所以，不論是愛豆的演唱會(huì)，還是見面會(huì)等相關(guān)一切活動(dòng)，有機(jī)會(huì)的話就去爭取。別等到失去機(jī)會(huì)讓自己遺憾。

講完大道理，再來看看網(wǎng)友的腦洞，有網(wǎng)友在遺憾自己沒去看過莫文蔚的演唱會(huì)，而許多網(wǎng)友則將所有關(guān)注點(diǎn)放在了莫文蔚的腿上，也難怪在搜索引擎上搜“莫文蔚”提示的第一個(gè)關(guān)鍵詞是“腿”。

隨意感受一下。你是不是很難相信，這居然是一個(gè)快49歲的歌手的身材........尤其是腿，眾網(wǎng)友表示超級(jí)羨慕了。

其實(shí)，在某次接受采訪時(shí)，莫文蔚表示，變老是一件很自然的事情。關(guān)鍵在于自律，要記得保持自律，保持良好的生活和鍛煉習(xí)慣。正是對自己身材一直保持嚴(yán)格管理，才讓莫文蔚在如此年紀(jì)依然擁有魔鬼般的身材。

了解莫文蔚了吧？她就是這樣一個(gè)喜歡不斷迎接新挑戰(zhàn)的人，相信你通過她的這次“急流勇退”已經(jīng)看出來了。但是，通過下面這次在央視《開講啦》的演講，相信你更能全方位的了解她，更能理解她這次的決定。

正如莫文蔚所說，“每個(gè)人應(yīng)該偶爾要跳出去，離開自己熟悉的環(huán)境，要面對一些陌生的環(huán)境，面對陌生的地方和人，你只能透過這樣子才可以重新認(rèn)識(shí)自己，或者發(fā)現(xiàn)自己。”

你是不是也深有體會(huì)呢？是不是也更理解了這次她“不再開大型巡演”的選擇了呢？
