美版《蒙面歌手》：這朵花是該劇迄今為止最大的亮點

In its latest episode, “The Masked Singer” revealed one of its most high-profile — and apparently least surprising — competitors yet.

在最新一集中，《蒙面歌手》披露了迄今為止最受矚目、也最不令人驚訝的競爭對手之一。

R&B legend Patti LaBelle, 75 — whose distinctive voice made her the judges’ hands-down favorite pick for the Flower — was unveiled as the blossoming purple-and-green performer on the series, which features stars hiding behind costumes and masks as they perform covers of famous songs. Her soaring vocals kept her in the game until the end of Season 2’s eighth episode.

現(xiàn)年75歲的R&B傳奇人物帕蒂·拉貝勒以其獨特的嗓音成為評委們最喜愛的“百花”人選。在該系列節(jié)目中，明星們身著演出服，戴著面具，翻唱名曲。她高昂的嗓音讓她一直堅持到第二季第八集結(jié)束。

Before her unveiling, judges Nicole Scherzinger, Robin Thicke and Jenny McCarthy all agreed the masked musician had to be LaBelle. And across the internet, consensus had pointed to the “New Attitude” songstress, too, with prior clue-drops being labeled “an exact match” and her voice rendered unmistakable.

在她揭幕之前，評委妮可·舍爾辛格、羅賓·西克和珍妮·麥卡錫一致認為這位戴面具的音樂家一定是拉貝爾。而在互聯(lián)網(wǎng)上，一致的意見也指向了“新態(tài)度”的女歌手，之前的線索被貼上了“完全匹配”的標簽，她的聲音也變得準確無誤。

Not everyone agreed, though. Loudmouth judge and comic Ken Jeong, 50, was strangely convinced she was Icelandic singer Björk, 53. And guest judge Joel McHale — who turned 48 Wednesday — settled on a more realistic, if erroneous, Dionne Warwick, 78.

然而，并不是所有人都同意。50歲的喜劇演員肯·鄭是一名愛說話的評委，她奇怪地認為自己就是53歲的冰島歌手比約克。周三剛過48歲生日的特邀評委喬爾·麥克海爾選擇了一個更現(xiàn)實的，但可能是錯誤的，78歲的迪翁·沃里克。

“My mom played your music when I was just a little boy. I’ve been hearing your voice ever since I was a child,” Thicke, 42, told LaBelle after her reveal. “I’ve learned so much from you. It’s such an honor to have you on this show; I think we’re all very blessed.”

“我小時候，我媽媽演奏過你的音樂。我從小就聽到你的聲音，”42歲的希克在她被揭發(fā)后對拉貝爾說。“我從你身上學到了很多。你能參加這個節(jié)目真是太榮幸了，我想我們都很幸運。”
