Domination in America, Starting from being a Boxing Champion Chapter 221: Entry Ceremony
"Hi! MTV viewers, good evening, this is the pre-show of the MTV Awards Ceremony, we’ve just sent off Green Day Band that arrived in a fire engine, and next up is Lady Gaga entering, wow, I bet her outfit today is definitely the best in the house."
At Radio City Music Hall, outside the red carpet of the awards ceremony, Black host Quincy Jones watched Lady Gaga walk on the red carpet and said with an exaggerated tone.
Lady Gaga wore a black knitted feather gown and sported a golden ’The Phantom of the Opera’ mask covering half of her face, also donning a black do hat, which made her look extrely unique.
After Lady Gaga appeared, the fans on site started screaming loudly, even louder than when Green Day Band entered just before.
Lady Gaga was extrely popular this year. She had released her debut studio album "The Fa" in August last year, and it had already sold over 15 million copies worldwide.
Her lead single "Poker Face," since its release, had topped the charts in 20 countries including the United States. The single had sold over 10 million copies in the United States and received a diamond certification from the Recording Industry Association.
Even though Taylor’s second album "Fearless" had also sold over 10 million copies worldwide.
Its leading singles "Dream It Possible", "Love story", "You belong with " had also topped the charts in more than ten counties including the United States. "Dream It Possible" had reached sales of 8 million copies in the United States.
But in terms of influence and fa, Taylor was still a notch below Lady Gaga at the ti.
Even Beyonce, a seasoned diva, wasn’t a match for her in terms of popularity.
In just two years after her debut, Lady Gaga had beco a phenonon-level pop superstar.
The only one who could compete with her in popularity was Link Baker, who had also released two best-selling albums, various number one hits, and whose phenonon-level single "See You Again" was a massive success.
"See You Again," four weeks after its release, was still far ahead of other songs, continuing to dominate the Billboard singles chart and had also topped the charts in 32 other countries and regions including Britain, France, Germany, Belgium, Australia, Japan, and South Korea.
Last week, this single broke 15 million in total sales in the United States, with world sales nearing 40 million, making it one of the best-selling diamond singles in the world music scene.
Although "See You Again" had beco a phenonon-level single, Link himself had not yet beco a phenonon-level superstar.
Thus, in terms of influence, he was still a step behind Lady Gaga.
"Good evening, Lady Gaga, your outfit is simply unbelievable, I just said that you would win the best outfit of the night, and I still stand by that,"
Host Quincy Jones approached Lady Gaga to conduct a live interview.
"Thank you! Quincy, you look charming tonight too,"
Lady Gaga, holding a big-mouthed doll on her hand, said in a strange tone.

Quincy Jones laughed out loud, "Miss Gaga, your outfit today is very classic, can you share with everyone the aning behind these designs?"
"Sure, Quincy!"
Lady Gaga didn’t speak directly but used the big-mouthed doll in her hand to explain the concept behind her outfit design.
Since her big hit single this year was "Poker Face," she needed to wear a mask, and her black knitted feather gown and do hat were all coordinated with several hit songs from the album "The Fa."
Before the interview concluded, a wave of cheers ca from the street.
Beyonce had arrived, dressed in a deep red V-neck evening gown that, combined with her reddish-brown skin, made her look like a peeled sausage, voluptuous and full.
Beyonce, 28 years old this year, debuted in ’93 with the girl group ’Destiny’s Child’, becoming a top girl group. She went solo in ’03, released three best-selling albums, and beca a music diva and a billionaire. This year she had received 9 nominations at the MTV Video Music Awards with "Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)".
Like Lady Gaga, she was also one of the hot tickets at this year’s MTV.
There were also betting agencies setting up gambling projects on who would win more awards between the two.
Quincy Jones hadn’t expected her to make an entrance right after Lady Gaga; it might make it difficult to conduct interviews if they ran into each other.
Singer Gaga saw Beyonce approaching, waved at the cara, and left the red carpet area.
Quincy also sighed in relief and walked towards Beyonce with a microphone in hand.
"Honey, how about we bet on who will win an award tonight?" Taylor said, looking down the street.
"What’s the reward if I win?"
Link, leaning back in his seat, asked with a smile.
"If I win and you don’t, I’ll make desserts to console you, but if you win and I don’t, you have to tell ten jokes to cheer up,"
"And if both of us win or neither of us does, what’s the reward?"
"Both of us winning is unlikely; MTV is not a couple’s feat. If neither of us wins, I’ll make desserts, and you tell jokes," Taylor replied.
"Great idea!"
Link nodded.
"Link Taylor, it’s ti for your entrance,"
Anna knocked on the car door from outside.
As the car slid forward about fifty ters, it stopped at the entrance of the red carpet.
Link opened the car door, stepping out first.
Imdiately, the street erupted with cheers, with many fans shouting ’Link Link’, both males and females, the females slightly louder.
Taylor reached out her fair, slender fingers into his palm and, led by him, walked out of the car with her head down.
When the two stood side by side on the street, the screams of the onlookers were deafening, echoing between the buildings on either side of the street.
Several fans tried to cross the barriers to co closer, but were stopped by the on-site security personnel.
Link and Taylor waved at the audience and the MTV cara crew while signing autographs for a few enthusiastic fans.
