张靓颖新加坡访谈译文 Jane Zhang: I am a singer, not an artiste Posted: 15 November 2010 SINGAPORE: I walked into the small function room after the press conference to find a rather tired Jane Zhang sprawled out on a chair, the heels she had earlier kicked off left in a small untidy pile by her feet. It wasn't exactly the most glamorous sight I have ever seen but Zhang didn't care. She noticed me enter and hopped to her feet before offering her hand as she introduced herself during her visit to Singapore awhile ago. "Hello. I am Jane Zhang," she said, giving my hand a good shake before gingerly sitting down again. I commented that she seemed very comfortable with herself and interacting with the media. She paused for a moment and told me it was a rather recent development. Up until the past year or so, she had been very uneasy about talking to the media and was very defensive because she didn't want her career to change her. She explained that even when she first stepped into showbiz, after wowing the judges at the huge Chinese talent contest "Super Girl" with her strong vocals five years ago, she told herself she did not want to be consumed by her fame or turn paranoid because of the frustrating rumours that fame invariably attracts. "When I first started out, I heard a lot of [horror] stories [about showbiz] so I protected myself very well," said Zhang. But as time went by, the 26-year-old singer's efforts to protect herself and prevent herself from changing ironically transformed her into a different person - someone jaded and unhappy. "I was more carefree and trusting before, now, I am more defensive. "Last time, my mother didn't even interfere when it came to choosing a school or force me to do homework," said Zhang with a laugh. After becoming famous, Zhang, who was nicknamed "Dolphin Princess" because of her vocal prowess, also had to perform a lot and she felt trapped by all the plans and schedules her management had for her. "I kept feeling that my life is all planned out for me [by someone else]. For example, what time I wake up has been planned because of my work schedule, not because I want to," she recounted. "Where I go later has also been planned and what I want to eat is restricted because I have been scheduled to eat at a certain place. I felt like I was helpless and had no say in my life. This made me feel really unhappy." Jane Zhang, the door guardian Her sudden fame perturbed her as well and strengthened the urge to protect herself. Zhang, who previously worked as a lounge singer, suddenly had legions of fans and people recognised her everywhere she went and she was not ready for it. "It felt strange at that time. There were people all pointing and talking about you when you went out. At the time, I was scared of going out. Even when I go out to eat, it must be somewhere with a private booth or a seat right in the corner. "I would always sit back facing the door. So whoever comes in, they can only see my back and won't recognise me. I am forever sitting that way. I suppose it is sort of a habitual way of protecting myself. I was always 'the door guardian'," said Zhang with a wry grin.
