据《纽约邮报》旗下的娱乐网站“第六页”3月2日报道，英国74岁的国王查尔斯三世加冕典礼将于今年5月举行。这本该是个重要的仪式，但目前很多国际大牌明星都拒绝了在查尔斯国王加冕礼上表演的机会。
据报道，包括阿黛尔、埃尔顿·约翰和“哈卷”哈里·斯泰尔斯在内的歌星拒绝了在查尔斯国王加冕礼上表演的机会。另据《滚石》杂志3月1日报道，辣妹组合和罗比·威廉姆斯等其他艺人也拒绝了在这一仪式上演出的邀请。虽然大多数艺人拒绝解释他们为什么不愿意上台表演。但埃尔顿·约翰方面的一名代表向该杂志证实，这位75岁传奇钢琴家由于日程安排问题不能出席。
业内人士认为，之所以没有艺人愿意在加冕典礼上表演，是因为他们表演后，会因此与丑闻缠身的英国王室联系在一起。公关人员西蒙称，英国王室最近面临着许多的公关灾难，任何在演出中表演的艺人都必须考虑到，这是否会引起他们的粉丝的强烈反对。一些人则认为，为74岁的查尔斯在其加冕礼上表演，对他们的职业生涯没有好处。
英国一家头部音乐公关公司负责人梅格称：“我能理解有关于艺人是否应该这样做的讨论。因为对于这些艺人而言，‘讲故事’真的很重要。此前为女王伊丽莎白二世表演时，对某些人来说是美妙而迷人的。因为这是电视转播，所以很多人会听到你的歌曲。”
在过去的几年里，英国王室的许多丑闻都成为头条新闻，这可以解释为什么在去年9月女王去世后，这么多明星都与英国王室保持距离。哈里和梅根退出王室导致他们与国王之间的关系紧张，尤其38岁哈里不久前公开声称自己的哥哥威廉对他进行了人身攻击。另一个震惊英国的丑闻是安德鲁王子与爱泼斯坦的关系。
King Charles III, formerly known as The Prince of Wales, is due to have his coronation on May 6, when the UK will officially crown Charles as King and Lady Camilla as Queen Consort at Westminster Abbey in London.
查尔斯国王三世，也就是原来的威尔士亲王，将于5月6日举行加冕仪式，届时英国将在伦敦威斯敏斯特教堂正式加冕查尔斯为国王，卡米拉夫人为王后。
It’s a historic event, a symbolically significant ritual that the UK has not performed since Queen Elizabeth II was crowned in 1953, a ceremony that involves a 700-year-old Coronation Chair and the sacred Stone of Scone, or Stone of Destiny, which has been used for the coronation of Scottish kings for centuries.
这是一个历史性的事件，是英国自1953年伊丽莎白二世女王加冕以来从未举行过的具有象征意义的仪式，这个仪式涉及到有700年历史的加冕椅和神圣的斯肯石，即命运之石，几个世纪以来一直用于苏格兰国王的加冕仪式。
The day after the big event there will be a Coronation Concert at Windsor Castle, which should see a big crowd (10,000 tickets have been given away to the British public), and will feature celebrity performers. At least, the ones who agreed to attend; despite all the pomp and splendor, A-list celebrities don’t seem to be particularly interested.
大事件的第二天，将在温莎城堡举行加冕音乐会，应该会有很多人参加（已经向英国公众赠送了1万张门票），并将有名人表演。至少，是那些同意参加的人；尽管所有的盛况和辉煌，一些超级名人似乎并不特别感兴趣。
A palace insider told The Daily Mail that Adele and Ed Sheeran were asked to perform at the Coronation Concert, and both declined. King Charles was “very keen” to have the two British icons involved, and personally requested their presence.
一位宫廷内部人士告诉《每日邮报》，阿黛尔和艾德-希兰被邀请在加冕音乐会上表演，但都被拒绝了。查尔斯国王 "非常希望 "这两位英国偶像参与，并亲自要求他们出席。
The source said the talent team approached the two global superstars, but received replies that they were both unavailable, “which was a massive disappointment.”
消息人士说，艺人团队与这两位全球超级巨星进行了接触，但得到的答复是他们都无法参加，"这让人非常失望"。
“They are titans of the showbiz industry and are quintessentially British but also known across the globe … it’s such a shame," the source added.
"他们是演艺界的巨头，是典型的英国人，但也是全球闻名的......这真是太遗憾了，"该消息人士补充说。
Harry Styles was also invited, but declined (the fact that Styles turned down an opportunity to wear one of his elaborate outfits at a royal celebration is genuinely shocking).
哈里-斯泰尔斯也受到了邀请，但他拒绝了（斯泰尔斯拒绝了在皇室庆典上穿他精心设计的服装之一的机会，这确实令人震惊）。
Elton John, close friend of the late Princess Diana, was reportedly at the top of the king’s list, but also declined to perform at the concert, which perhaps isn’t quite as surprising.
据报道，已故戴安娜王妃的密友埃尔顿-约翰在国王的名单上名列前茅，但也拒绝在音乐会上表演，这也许并不十分令人惊讶。
British singer Robbie Williams was invited, and declined. Reportedly, the palace even tried to orchestrate a Spice Girls reunion for the concert, which, if successful, might even have eclipsed Charles’s coronation (especially if Victoria Beckham were to join).
英国歌手罗比-威廉姆斯(Robbie Williams)被邀请，但被拒绝了。据报道，皇宫甚至试图为音乐会安排辣妹重聚，如果成功的话，这甚至可能使查尔斯的加冕典礼黯然失色（尤其是如果维多利亚-贝克汉姆加入的话）。
Alas, it wasn’t to be; the Spice Girls remain separated, and are not performing at the concert. Not a good omen for the beginning of Charles’s reign.
事与愿违；辣妹仍旧分居，而且不在音乐会上表演。这对查尔斯的统治开始不是一个好兆头。
Indeed, King Charles III already seems to lack the quiet charisma and magnetism of the Late Queen Elizabeth II; surely, she would have united the Spice Girls with a single wave of her scepter, like Thanos assembling the Infinity Stones.
事实上，国王查尔斯三世似乎已经缺乏已故女王伊丽莎白二世那种安静的魅力和磁力；她肯定会用她的权杖一挥就把辣妹们联合起来，就像萨诺斯组装无限宝石一样。
Charles doesn’t seem to have much luck, due to be crowned just as the archaic institution has aged out; the announcement that Charles would inherit the throne was instantly met with calls to end the British monarchy. Reportedly, Australians do not want to see King Charles’s face on their money; they would much rather have Steve Irwin, the Crocodile Hunter.
查尔斯似乎没有什么运气，他的加冕正好是在这个古老的机构已经老去的时候；查尔斯将继承王位的消息一经宣布，立即遭到了要求结束英国君主制的呼声。据报道，澳大利亚人不希望在他们的钱上看到查尔斯国王的脸；他们更愿意看到鳄鱼猎人史蒂夫-欧文。
The palace, however, did manage to rustle up some celebrities to perform for the new monarch; Gary Barlow, Mark Owen and Howard Donald are due to headline the Coronation Concert, which will also feature Kylie and Dannii Minogue, Andrew Lloyd Webber and Lionel Richie.
然而，皇宫确实设法召集了一些名人为新君主表演；加里-巴洛、马克-欧文和霍华德-唐纳德将成为加冕音乐会的主角，凯莉和丹妮-米洛、安德鲁-劳埃德-韦伯和莱昂内尔-里奇也将参加。
As for Adele, Ed Sheeran and Elton John, King Charles III will just have to make do with Spotify, like everyone else.
至于阿黛尔、艾德-希兰和埃尔顿-约翰，国王查尔斯三世将不得不像其他人一样，用Spotify来做。返回搜狐，查看更多
