Some time ago, talk show actor Yang Li mentioned his predicament when he said in the show that he would no longer be on variety shows and would return to offline to prepare for special shows:
The sensitivity is too low.
Careless.
Not suitable for talk shows.
Sir thinks that this sentence has to be prefixed:
It's just not suitable for (domestic) talk shows.
Because like Yang Li, in the home of American talk shows, there is a more benchmark figure.
Crazier, crazier, bigger scale.
I also practice it myself, and go one step further, definitely the plus, pro, and max versions.
Just when Yang Li wanted to quit.
She's back!
With her spicy comments on the relationship between the sexes, with her new perception of women's lives.
Of course, there is also her meaty joke:
After two years, welcome Huang Ali:
Single lady
Single Lady
As the title suggests, this time, Huang Ali is talking about her single life since her divorce for two years.
Just like she used to ridicule marriage, bed affairs, and pregnancy.
Now ridiculing divorce and ridiculing singleness.
has really done it, other people's programs have no target, and her creation will be fun for herself first.
Of course, it's still the most familiar style.
(Reminder: Underage audiences and sensitive persons, please be cautious about scrolling)
01
What is it like to get divorced?
Some will say regret, others will say freedom.
Huang Ali will say "release after completing the sentence".
And the answer, as always, goes further:
After the divorce, you can date as much as you want.
The theme of the talk show is the story of those men after resuming singleness.
And without changing the previous "Storm" style, it tells in detail:
How did I fuck a 60-year-old man and a 25-year-old young man.
For example, when telling the story with the 25-year-old guy.
She depicts the "bathroom temptation" video that the guy sent her with a rather evocative view.
also compared the young man's movements, and praised the young man's "masking" skills in the video:
For example, share your feelings about socializing with a 60-year-old.
The scale is still so large.
But in addition to being presumptuous, she also has ingenuity:
For example, how can a single person continue to enjoy this pleasure without being responsible?
Threshold.
Huang Ali told everyone that the secret to maintaining these short-term relationships is to maintain these short-term relationships within three weeks.
Because after three weeks, some people take everything too seriously.
She recalls that a big director didn't buy the breakup she proposed in the third week, so the big director chose to question and threaten her.
And her response was:
Because of her financial independence, Huang Ali is able to play with ease.
As she says, she's a millionaire.
She even found the reason for "independence" in this frequent dating:
When you're willing to pay for your first date, you're making a successful "investment". She will repay you a thousandfold.
But at the same time, when she buys you an apartment, appliances, a parking space and a high-end toilet.
You also don't have a chance to discuss your own independent personality with her.
You must always be where she wants you to be and serve her pleasure.
As a middle-aged woman with money and a career, two daughters and a single woman, Huang Ali has indeed lived a happy life as a single lady.
She talked about this happiness throughout the talk show, and said from the bottom of her heart:
Her strong self as always, still overflowing.
It has also attracted everyone's popularity.
In the past, she ridiculed her marriage and ridiculed that she originally wanted to find a successful handsome guy to lie down, but she stepped into the marriage trap of needing to share debts and was forced to "become independent".
Now that she has gained financial independence, she seems to be taking a step closer to the "independence" in her mind.
In fact, if you look carefully at Huang Ali's speech, if you switch the gender of the protagonist in the joke, you will obviously find that the joke is actually more than just a joke.
It's the daily life of most scumbags in society:
Chatting about a hook, not picky eater.
Enjoy the freshness and refuse the long-term.
Not responsible, not proactive, not refusal.
Because of his financial independence, he can be fearless, bold in demanding, and bold in resisting in the relationship between the sexes.
……
In "Single Lady", Huang Ali deliberately used a lot of sexual elements without discipline to depict the happiness of "turning over and being the master".
And inside, I have been committed to breaking those traditional disciplines for the weak, and especially, not to be that kind of "kind person".
For example, when being pursued, encourage bold gifts.
In this way, the subtext and subtle restrictions in the relationship between the sexes can be punctured.
Let those suitors with ulterior motives be deflated.
For example, when facing emotional kidnapping.
No relents.
Say scatter, disperse.
This makes those careful thoughts and tricks in the relationship between the sexes have nothing to hide.
It can be said that the whole talk show still maintains the female theme that Huang Ali is good at.
Use large-scale remarks to puncture the various pretenses and illusions that exist in reality to maintain the status of the strong and weak, and make fun of your own personal experience.
For ordinary audiences who are accustomed to watching domestic "elegant and dignified" talk shows, for ordinary audiences who rarely go to offline special shows, or who have never heard of Huang Ali.
Her performance this time will definitely bring a subversive experience.
But what if you skip this restriction?
02
As a show, "Single Lady" is far from being "rave reviews".
On IMDb, the show also only scored 6.4 points.
Although the number of ratings is not large, there are quite a few low-scoring comments in the IMDB comment section, and many people feel that Huang Ali's content about sex talks too much, which seems boring and lacks depth.
The limited number of audience comments on Rotten Tomatoes can make the problem quite specific:
Boring, just cheap sex jokes and nonsense. Those who listen to these jokes are on the same path.
"Single Woman" and her last talk show special ("Merry Girl" in 2022) were disappointing. Her jokes lack elaborate preparation and appear cheap and old-fashioned.
I'm kind of a person who likes her work, but this time I felt the atmosphere was very strange.
And Sir thinks that the most specific thing to say about the problem is this one:
I didn't like her "Merry Girl", and I was expecting it to be better. But her focus on writing seems to have declined. After the divorce, Huang Ali is no longer like a fresh and interesting comedian like before. This happens to a lot of performers like her. They suddenly became "famous" and lost contact with the general public. She keeps talking about how great she is and how much people want her, especially now that she's divorced, which rarely resonates. And when she talks for the fourth or fifth time about how much she wants sex after her divorce, it's really not funny. I think it's her ego that is influencing her, maybe something needs to happen in her life to get her back to her most classic comedy style.
For audiences accustomed to her work, Huang Ali is also in a certain predicament.
As she grew famous, she resonated less and less.
In other words, although she used divorce as an entry point.
But a large section of the yellow cavity is only to cover up the connection between her creation and the general public.
It wasn't just like that, because she wasn't like that in her early years.
Sir first briefly reviewed her previous works:
Including "Single Lady", Huang Ali recorded a total of four talk shows on Netfilx, the other three being "Baby Cobra" in 2016, "Hard Knock Wife" in 2018 and "Don Wang" in 2022.
Of course, the first three are also full of various large-scale yellow jokes, such as in "Little Cobra", she told a classic joke:
But even if such jokes frequently appeared in the early special shows, Huang Ali at that time had something to say.
How so?
In Little Cobra.
Huang Ali recalled that in order to achieve her goal of being a housewife, she tried her best to marry her husband who graduated from Harvard Business School. Even make lunch for your husband every day to make the other person dependent on himself:
And everything is for not working.
These statements sound outrageous.
But it all comes from her real life.
Huang Ali was in the comedy industry when she was young, and she was quite poor for a while, and she could only eat rice with beans every day, and she couldn't even afford a down jacket during the winter.
Although when performing "Little Cobra", Huang Ali has already made certain achievements in the entertainment industry.
But this kind of hardship made her once want to give up her job and marry into a wealthy family It seems very real, and it may even be the thoughts that many young women flash in their hearts during the period of confusion at work:
It's so difficult to work, and there is the option of getting married, should I marry a rich man?
And at the end of "Little Cobra", she devised a reversal:
After marrying her husband, who graduated from Harvard Business School, she found out that the other party actually had no money and was still in debt.
So the story becomes the story of women who end up working their own.
not only appeased the envy of the audience, but also responded to the reason why she was standing here.
So ingenious.
Another aspect of Huang Ali's early talk show success was her status as a mother of two children.
During the recording of "Little Cobra" and "Iron Lady", Huang Ali was pregnant with her first daughter and second daughter respectively.
Being a pregnant woman makes her attract attention, and there is a lot to talk about.
For example, she will complain about the differential treatment of the two roles of father and mother by public opinion:
She also encourages other women to be brave enough to face abortion:
By the time of the recording of "The Iron Lady", she had already given birth to her first daughter and was pregnant with her second daughter.
And she already has production experience, and she is even more firepower on stage.
She said that having a baby is not just about giving birth to a baby, but also about giving birth to their "house" (placenta).
Huang Ali also used her friend as an example to tell about the tragedy of production itself.
It took her friend 72 hours to give birth, and the baby's head came out and retracted, retracted and came out again. In the end, I had to have an emergency caesarean section.
And when her friend gave birth. When she went to visit a friend, she was shocked by her friend's tragic situation:
And although she herself did not have as much pain as her friends, breastfeeding her children brought her more pain than giving birth:
And after listing the painful experience of giving birth and having children after childbirth, she appealed to the United States for the sake of mothers:
These are also important reasons why she can get out of the circle.
Using personal experience as a knife, he cut through the layers of confusion that society does not pay enough attention to women's fertility issues, which has aroused widespread resonance.
And this resonance is not even confined to the theater.
In 2023, she expressed her disgust at a white comedian touching her belly during her pregnancy in a conversation with Triva, saying that pregnancy does not mean that you can touch someone else's belly.
The remarks immediately struck a chord with many women online who were involuntarily groped during pregnancy.
From inside the field to outside the field, the joke has supporters and vitality.
However.
It seems that since the third special "Merry Girl", this resonance with ordinary women has been weakened.
It's the same as after everyone becomes successful.
The content begins to be frivolous, begins to catch horses, is full of design, and loses the real dissatisfaction behind the text.
This kind of downward trajectory is exactly the same as the plight of domestic talk show actors, and even the law that many literary and artistic creators have become worse.
It's a rehearsal in advance.
If you understand Huang Ali's changes, Sir hopes that you don't have too high expectations for those talk show actors who have been famous for a long time in China.
03
This also seems to be the common dilemma of the vast majority of female talk show actors.
has become famous, and the impact is greater, but it is getting farther and farther away from the audience's expectations.
What is the audience expecting?
Mouth replacement.
Whether it is Huang Ali or Yang Li, their fame often relies on gender topics, and they say a large number of phenomena that women want to say but do not say, so people's expectations for them are often sharper, bolder, and more to the point.
But actually.
I have to say that women are also classified, when a female talk show actor becomes a female star, her personal life expands at the same time, it will inevitably bring a side effect:
There was less material she could say.
As a result, her chances of becoming an ordinary person's "mouth substitute" have also become smaller.
You want to.
When Huang Ali divorced, her two daughters accompanied her, which can be called family happiness, and her career is also thriving, at the beginning of this year, she won the Golden Globe Award and Emmy Award for the TV series "Angry Life"; The happy sir of sex has been introduced at the beginning.,It's a change of happiness.。
She achieved what she described as having "family, career, and sexual bliss" at the same time.
Will there still be the "anger" that the masses expect?
Of course not.
She can only rely on textual skills to present what she thinks is something that the public is happy to accept.
Take "cheating" as an example.
In "Merry Woman", she talked about this topic in detail.
Roughly speaking, in the traditional setting, the infidelity of successful men is often forgivable, and the cheating of women, no matter how successful, is also an unforgivable thing.
So she complained that male comedians can sleep with beautiful female fans.
And a comedian like her, even to the head. I can only see "the pervert in "The Silence of the Lambs" in private messages.
So she "wants to cheat every five minutes."
Interesting?
Truly.
But if you look closely, Huang Ali's remarks can't avoid a question:
Although she once said that she was a scumbag and that she enjoyed a free and happy life, it was difficult for her to prove herself or share the truth about cheating, so it was difficult to gain real resonance, and she could only be reduced to some kind of controversial emotional catharsis.
After all.
The most important quality of a talk show is to observe life, which is to "go to the heart".
Just like Sir has always thought.
On and off the stage, emotions actually have some kind of conservation property:
The audience in the audience can laugh out loud, and there must be a character on the stage who is crying inside.
The audience praised the actor for complaining about something accurately and ruthlessly, just because in reality they must have accumulated resentment and anger in this matter.
And when the people on stage just create to cater to the emotions of the audience, the joke loses its vitality.
This question is even more direct in "Single Woman".
In "Merry Woman", she also satirized how those male comedians slept with female fans.
But in "Single Lady", she has already expressed her disdain for the non-connotative vase female companions of these male comedians and colleagues:
He calls these vase girls "hot but brainless very women", and mocks the low taste of men who look for these "very women" who have no connotation.
Therefore, it is no wonder that some viewers question:
On the surface, it is about a single mother who is free after divorce and can finally enjoy life and go crazy dating?
No.
Wealthy singles are free to choose their sexual partners and indulge in unbridled indulgence effortlessly.
Here's what's really going on:
Not every single mother has this capital to splurge.
Not to mention the way she encourages, as mentioned earlier, encouraging to be a scumbag woman is not really feminism.
Not to mention speaking out on behalf of women (which is far from the reason why she has been recognized by the public in the past).
So what to say?
That's right.
Taking a step back, the current Huang Ali may also be the real Huang Ali.
She talks about lust and sex.
These are all things she really cares about in her current identity and state.
It's just that it's hard for her to go back to the old track.
As she said at the end of "Single Ladies":
If you can get something out of tonight's show
Look how happy I am living
We are also sincerely happy and blessed for this.
Can be both.
In the envious voices that fill the screen, we can definitely hear someone crying as well.
What to cry about.
Crying about the mouth that used to have a big belly and a yellow mouth, and scared for them.
Since then, it has been lost.
