Conquer America, Start with a Boxing Champion

"Who are you calling? Why did you hang up when you saw us coming down?"

Taylor and Selena came downstairs one after another.

The two had just changed their outfits above and were getting ready to attend tonight's American Music Awards.

Taylor wore a long black dress, a small suit jacket, and black high-heeled leather shoes, which made her figure even taller and slender.

Selena wore a black wallet with a red dress inside and white sneakers on her feet. She looked fresh and cute.

The two of them dress casually and have a cool flavor.

"It was Ivaca. My new movie role was getting good reviews, and she asked me if I wanted a public relations award."

In this matter, Link did not hide Taylor's intention.

"Yeah?"

Taylor smiled slightly, blinked and asked, "She is your partner in music. How could she think of helping you with public relations for film awards? She is so kind to you."

"Don't get me wrong, winning a movie award will also help promote the album. Ivaca is more experienced in this aspect than Catherine and Mandy, so she called me to ask."

"Okay, whatever you want, I won't be surprised if I see you in bed one day."

Taylor bumped his shoulder and walked into the dressing room.

Selena followed Taylor for a few steps, then suddenly stepped back to him, leaned into his ear and whispered softly: "Brother, listen to me, stop it. With a girlfriend like Taylor, other women should stop it as soon as possible. Taylor is very powerful, be careful if she catches you in bed.”

"Don't talk nonsense, when have you seen me with other women?"

Link flicked her forehead.

"Last year, you told me that you had many girlfriends. Don't even think about denying it."

"That was a joke."

"You'd better not. I'm on Taylor's side on this matter."

Selena sniffed and followed into the dressing room.

Link shook his head and waited outside for more than half an hour. It was around six o'clock in the afternoon when Taylor and Selena, two beauties one big and one small, came out of the dressing room. Their makeup was exquisite and their bodies were fragrant.

The two of them stood together, one tall and sexy, the other beautiful and cute, both with their chins raised, looking inaccessible.

Link didn't care what tricks the two were playing, and urged them to get in the car quickly. The American Music Awards ceremony was about to begin.

This year's American Music Awards were held at the Nokia Center in Los Angeles.

The American Music Awards is one of the three major music awards in the United States. The awards ceremony is held at the end of November every year.

The selection of the American Music Awards is mainly based on the singer's album sales and clicks during the year.

The data is compiled from Billboard magazine and the Billboard website and includes album and digital single sales, radio airplay, online traffic, social media activity and tour box office.

Voting begins in mid-November each year, and fans can vote once for all awards through one platform.

To put it simply, whoever's album sells more in the United States and has more fans will have a greater chance of winning the award. The winner takes all, and there will be no sharing of cakes like the Grammy and MTV Video Awards.

As of November, the 2009 Billboard album sales list results have also been released.

Three albums have sold more than 3 million copies in the United States, which is better than 2008/07 and equal to 2006.

Sales champion: Taylor Swift's second studio album "Fearless", which was released in December last year, has sold a total of 3.32 million copies in the United States.

Runner-up: Susan Boyle, also known as Aunt Susan, made her debut on "Britain's Got Talent" at the beginning of the year. Her debut album "I Dreamed A Dream" sold 3.15 million copies in the United States.

Second runner-up: Link's second album "Go Forward", which was released for 21 weeks, with cumulative sales of 3.12 million copies in the United States.

The fourth place is MJ's number one singles collection album "Number Ones" which sold 2.48 million copies in the United States.

The fifth place is Lady Gaga's "The Fame", which currently sells 2.38 million copies in the United States.

The sixth place is Andrea Bocelli's "Christmas Special", with sales of 2.21 million copies.

The seventh place is Link's "The Fighter", which was released nearly a year ago and sold 2.19 million copies in the United States, ranking seventh on the annual sales list.

The eighth place is the "Hannah Montana" TV series original soundtrack, with sales of 1.83 million copies.

The ninth place is "E.N.D" by the Black Eyed Peas, with sales of 1.78 million copies.

The tenth place is Eminem's "Relapse" with sales of 1.73 million copies.

The eleventh place is Jay-Z's "The Blueprint 3", with sales of 1.71 million copies.

Since the American Music Awards mainly focus on local American artists, Aunt Susan does not participate in the selection. Lady Gaga cannot beat Taylor in terms of sales. Taylor has a chance to win all the female singer awards.

As for male singers, the situation is more complicated.

Although Link's second album sold more than MJ's "Number Ones", the combined sales of the two albums reached 5.31 million.

But MJ passed away suddenly in June, and the early albums have become hot commodities in the record market.

Including "This Is It" ranked 13th with sales of 1.29 million copies, "Thriller" ranked 15th with sales of 1.27 million copies, and the collection "The Essential Michael Jackson" ranked 21st with 1.15 million copies .

So far, MJ's total album sales this year have reached 8.2 million, which is higher than the total sales of Link's two albums.

According to the winner takes all rules, and in memory of MJ.

MJ has a better chance of winning the award, so Ivaca reminds him on the phone.

In fact, there was no need for Evaka to remind him that MJ was also one of his idols and had just passed away, so he was not willing to compete for awards with a deceased person.

The American Music Awards selection that night also confirmed his guess.

Taylor won five awards, including the most valuable overall artist of the year, best female pop singer, best female country singer, best country album, and breakthrough artist of the year.

MJ won four awards, Best Male Vocalist in the Pop Category, Best Male Vocalist in the Soul Category, Best Album, and Contemporary Legend, and became the singer with the most awards in the history of the American Music Awards.

Link won two awards, Best Pop Album for "Going Forward" and Best Adult Era Artist.

Jay-Z won best rapper and best rap album.

The Black Eyed Peas, Beyoncé, Whitney Houston and others all received awards.

However, Lady Gaga and Katy Perry, who became popular this year, did not receive any results, and Eminem also accompanied them throughout the whole process.

From this aspect, it is more difficult to win the American Music Award than the Grammy and MTV Awards. To win this award, album quality and sales are indispensable.

"Mr. Baker, based on your results this year, you had a chance to win the Best Artist of the Year and the Best Male Pop Vocalist category but you didn't. Many fans feel sorry for you. Do you feel sorry?"

a reporter from Billboard magazine asked in an interview after the awards ceremony.

"of course not."

Link stood on the round platform, holding two pyramid-shaped crystal trophies and said: "Taylor is my girlfriend and my music teacher. MJ is my idol and the goal of my struggle. They won the award. I am more than worthy of it, and I am able to win these two awards because of their contribution.”

"Mr. Baker, it is said that you and Taylor will release third albums next year. Many people think that next year's album chart battle will be a competition between you and Taylor. Who do you think will win next year?"

Vanity Fair magazine editor asked in an interview.

Link thought for a moment and said, "Tyler and I have an agreement that we will collaborate on 1-2 songs on the next album, so no matter who wins, it's a win-win for both of us."

"Mr. Baker, you are now very popular in the European and American pop music circles. You are the most popular male singer in pop music. Many media call you the new king of pop music. What do you think of this title?"

asked the Vanity Fair editor.

Link smiled softly and said to the camera: "This is my honor. I am also working towards this goal and try not to disappoint my fans and those who support me."
