There are many "vase" artists in the entertainment industry, and in layman's terms, the selling points of appearance and appearance are far greater than those of their own acting skills, singing, works, etc.
And this kind of artist can be popular for a while a lot of times, but because this circle has never lacked handsome men and women, it will soon be replaced, so many times vase actors are also trying to transform or look for other opportunities in order to maintain their commercial value.
This time, I want to talk about a typical case of a Hollywood vase actress who failed to maintain her value, and this actress is Amanda Seyfried.
This actress, a younger child's shoes should not have heard of, because she has actually been pasted for a long time.
But she was in the limelight in Hollywood at that time, and was even named one of the "Four Little Flowers of Hollywood" by the media.
Born in 1985, Amanda has become a hot superstar in her circle in her early 20s.
Why? acting?
No, it's the value of the face.
This does not need to say anything more, just put a few pictures.
In terms of appearance alone, even in the beautiful Hollywood, Amanda definitely belongs to the top one, and it is also a very standard American sweetheart look.
The most rare thing is that she is less than 160cm tall, but she can handle various types of outfits, and Megan Fox, who is also a vase, can't do this, and you let Megan wear student clothes.
But Amanda can, she can be a young girl, or a mature big sister, can be charming, can also be ignorant.
Such a physical condition, not to say that there is no dead angle at 360 degrees, but it also belongs to the kind of heavenly appreciation meal.
It is also because of this that Amanda, who has been a beautiful billet since she was a child, has been a child model since she was 11 years old, and although it has not been smooth sailing in the circle, it is undeniable that her appearance has really helped her a lot.
For example, in the movie "Bad Girl" that lindsay Rohan, her role in it is not eye-catching, that is, a number four or five, but she has won the attention of the audience with her excellent appearance.
Of course, the circle of capital does not mean that you will be favored if you have a good appearance, plus Amanda itself has no backstage relationship, so she has also done some vocal training, after all, even the vase can not stand there motionless, right?
Later Amanda, indeed because of these skills in the "Mamma Mia" movie shine, directly became popular.
She then managed to join Kristen Stewart (Twilight), Brian Flake (Deadpool' wife), and Emma Roberts, who were very hot at the time, and called her "Four Little Flowers", and magazines named her "the most beautiful woman in the world".
After Amanda, she was constantly in the scene, such as "Little Red Riding Hood", "Les Misérables" and so on.
But alas, she didn't go any further.
As mentioned earlier, there are three ways in Hollywood to enhance or maintain its own business value.
First, the box office of the movies he starred in was very powerful, such as Will Smith, who had made a profit for 8 consecutive movies and directly sealed the gods.
Second, get some heavyweight awards, such as three Oscars, Tony Awards or Emmy Awards, the next one such as the Golden Globe Award, etc. is barely enough, and the rest of the pheasant awards are unnecessary, and it is useless to take more.
Third, lean on a big IP, and eat heavily in it.
But unfortunately, none of these three Amandas can be touched.
After the fire, most of the films she starred in were relatively ordinary, similar to "Les Misérables", which was extremely excellent, and she did not support the majority of the film in it.
And the little golden man's award is at least one galaxy away from her.
The third way would have been feasible, but unfortunately she missed it herself.
When Marvel was preparing to shoot "Guardians of the Galaxy", it thought of finding Amanda as the heroine Kamora, but Amanda did not hesitate to refuse.
The reason is very simple, she is not willing to "play ugly", play Kamora to make the whole body green, makeup time takes several hours, she is troublesome.
And after reading the script, she thought that the movie "Guardians of the Galaxy" would definitely hit the street, and she couldn't afford to play a street movie.
The result, of course, is a fierce punch in the face, the box office of "Silver Guardian" is too high to be good, and the main actors in it are all on fire, such as Star Lord jumping from the 18th line to the darling of Hollywood capital.
However, it can also be seen from this that Amanda's star's "eyesight" is very poor, and good actors will have the vision to judge the market potential of a movie, and Amanda obviously does not have this skill.
Amanda, whose career is not going well, of course, has to maintain the heat in another way, so she runs to the farm, becomes a chicken owner, deals with animals every day, and often posts about farm life on social media.
Some children's shoes may say, isn't this very good? Away from Vanity Fair, living the life she wanted to live, anyway, the money she had earned before was enough for her to live this idyllic life.
Unfortunately, this is actually just a personal design, after starting the farm life, Amanda herself said in an interview that she refused Marvel's invitation, and now she really regrets dying, and really should take the "Guardians of the Galaxy" film.
In fact, while insisting on "farm activities", Amanda has not given up her acting career, she has always had films, and she has maintained a stable output every year, but it has not made any big splash.
There are many stars who always like to create a person who is indifferent to fame and fortune, but it is best not to believe that people who have been in Vanity Fair for a long time and have dealt with capital for so long will not be willing to give up wealth and status.
Of course, this is not strictly speaking a shameful means, but a very normal operation in the circle, young fans may believe that children's shoes with deep experience will smile and laugh when they see it, and they know it, as long as people are not too out of line and there is no need to break it.
In addition, after being beaten by society, Amanda also knows that this will not work, so she has worked hard to improve her business ability, and in her latest movie "Mank", you can already see that she has made significant progress.
And she also received many film festival best supporting actress nominations for this film, even if the Oscar nomination list has her name.
And look at what this former Hollywood goddess will develop into in the future.
