BXBX NOVEL Chapter 551: THE DAY BEFORE
[I think it will definitely be Ethan Kim. He has the most seniority among all the nominees.]
- [Does debuting a few years ahead a requirement for one to win Rookie of the Year? Like winning this late in a category with the word \'rookie\' in it when they had been in the industry for that long is just ironic.]
- [Hey, upstairs, no debut year shaming! What does it matter if Ethan is only nominated now? This was his first movie, and that\'s all that mattered!]
[Isn\'t Mia Rossi the most probable one to win? She\'s the only one who had a lead role in all the nominees. Her acting was also no joke. My bet is on her.]
- [I think so too. She deserves it.]
- [Yes, she\'s the lead role. But the movie she starred in was a rom-com that didn\'t really need that much of acting talent.]
- [That\'s not all. Among the five nominees, her movie earned the least in the box-office. Have you all forgotten what kind of award Silver Moon is?]
[Stop with all the debate. It would obviously be Astrid Townsend. One, he has the highest ranking on the <Star List>. Two, <The Sleeping God> earned way, way more than all the movies nominated this year. And three, well, he acted the best out of the five. So...
yeah, he\'ll be the winner.]
That arrogant post attracted a lot of aggro. Which then lead to Astrid getting a ton of hate from the fans of the other four nominees. Of course, his fans wouldn\'t just stand still as he got battered by hate.
Astrid\'s core fans were now pretty solid. And with his number one fan leading the way, it\'s no longer easy to drag his name around.
@astridsnumber1fan: [Please don\'t use Aster\'s name to attract aggro. Even if you\'re just stating the obvious, those with fragile sensibilities will obviously react negatively to it. So, it\'s better to just shut up for now, and be arrogant later once Aster wins. After all, only the victors have the right to be arrogant.]
This post was even more arrogant than the one who was obviously just attracting aggro. But somehow, this post didn\'t really make that many people angry. Probably because a lot of Astrid\'s fans were commenting jokingly under the post that the comments of others who were really mad just got buried.
----------
Astrid chuckled when he read Wulfric\'s post on [Cyberspace]. Really, every time this guy posted something, it always made him laugh.
It had been over two weeks since he finished filming [Serendipitous Summer]. His schedule had been pretty lax since then. He didn\'t have any work and just went to school. Which could be considered as a mini-vacation. And that\'s fine. Since [The Great War] was still ongoing, and receiving a lot of good response, his public awareness hadn\'t decreased, even with the lack of public appearances.
So, he spent these past two weeks pretty much relaxed. That\'s why he had more time browsing [Cyberspace]. Every time he read a post or a comment from \'White Wolf\' - his self-proclaimed number one fan, it wouldn\'t fail to make him laugh and smile.
Although, he sometimes did wonder how come the other had time to \'fanboy\' when he was already so busy. He shouldn\'t be slacking, right?
"Astrid, are you listening?"
Ellis\' question pulled Astrid out of his own thoughts. He gave the other an apologetic smile.
"Sorry, I was just looking at something." After he said that, he promptly closed his Terminal.
They were currently in Ellis\' office in the Polaris\' building. Ellis was showing him photos of clothes Aurora Bliss sent. There were a bunch of them and Aurora wanted him to choose at least three sets that he liked the best. That way, when he went to [Bliss] tomorrow, the time it would take to \'dress him up\' would be significantly less.
Although Aurora wasn\'t his official stylist, when Ellis asked if the other could style Astrid for the Silver Moon Awards, she readily accepted the commission. The other most likely really enjoyed styling him the first time. That\'s why she didn\'t hesitate to agree.
Which Astrid was very thankful for. Since tomorrow would be his first red-carpet event for a film award, it\'s important that he looked presentable. There would be a lot of press there tomorrow. Articles about the best and worst dressed would definitely appear. He didn\'t mind not being one of the former, but at least he didn\'t want to be part of the latter.
With Aurora around, he would definitely be able to avoid that happening.
"So, which one of these do you prefer?" Ellis asked as she showed different sets of clothes on the virtual board.
Astrid looked at each one seriously. It took him about 15 minutes before he decided on the three sets he liked the most. One was deep blue, the other wine red, and the last one was charcoal gray.
Ellis looked at the sets of clothes he chose and nodded her head.
"These colors really do suit you. Then, I\'ll send them to Miss Bliss." After sending the cloth samples to Aurora Bliss, she continued, "We will go to [Bliss] in the afternoon tomorrow. So, there\'s no need for you to wake up early. Get a good night\'s sleep and make sure to do proper skincare. You need to look your best tomorrow.
So, even those people who don\'t like you would have no choice but to think, \'ah, this actor is really good-looking\'. Okay?"
Astrid laughed a little at that, but still nodded and agreed. After all, Ellis didn\'t say anything wrong.
