Is the Royal Variety Performance Still Relevant in 2025 — or Just a Nostalgia Trip for the Royals?

2025年的皇家综艺表演还跟得上时代吗?还是只是皇室的怀旧之旅?

Is the Royal Variety Performance Still Relevant in 2025 — or Just a Nostalgia Trip for the Royals?

皇家综艺表演又来了,一如既往地推出那些老面孔:西区剧组、人气下滑的流行歌手,以及靠2019年选秀夺冠成名的艺人。别误会——杰西J的高音依然炸裂,狂躁乐队也堪称永恒。但这就是2025年所谓的‘综艺’吗?

再来说说那位身着皇家长袍的大象:我们为何还要资助并庆祝这场本质上是王室加油会、外加爵士手势的活动?它确实迷人,但当娱乐节奏快如TikTok时,魅力就够了吗?

Okay, but can we talk about how easy it is to stream this from literally anywhere using a VPN? I’m in Bali eating a smoothie bowl and watching Paddington The Musical. Modern life is weird.

但咱们能聊聊用VPN从任何地方看这节目有多方便吗?我正在巴厘岛吃着思慕雪碗,看着《帕丁顿音乐剧》。现代生活真魔幻。

Ah yes, the Royal Variety Performance — where 'national treasure' means 'someone your grandma likes' and 'innovation' means 'they used LED lights this year'.

啊,皇家综艺表演——在这里,‘国民瑰宝’意思是‘你奶奶喜欢的人’,而‘创新’意思是‘今年用了LED灯’。

Honestly? I just watch it for the awkward royal reactions. Seeing William try not to laugh at the pantomime dame is 100% why I tune in.

说实话?我就为了看皇室成员尴尬的反应。看威廉王子努力憋笑不看滑稽剧里的大妈,就是我每年必看的原因。

The Royal Variety began in 1912 as a way to fund performers who’d lost work in the off-season. Today it’s a PR vehicle for a family that owns more property than entire countries. Progress?

皇家综艺始于1912年,初衷是资助演出淡季失业的艺人。如今却成了一个家族的宣传工具,他们拥有的土地比整个国家还多。这叫进步?

I used to watch this with my mum on a CRT telly. Now I stream it on my iPad while my grandkids TikTok dance to Harry Moulding. Times change. But I still get a little tear in my eye when the national anthem plays.

我以前和妈妈在老式显像管电视上看这节目。现在我用iPad播放,孙辈们却用哈里·莫尔丁的音乐跳TikTok舞。时代变了。但当国歌响起时,我眼眶还是会微微一热。

Thanks to my VPN, I’ve watched every Royal Variety Performance since I moved to New Zealand. It’s not about the show — it’s about feeling connected to home. Even if that connection is just Jessie J singing and a duke clapping politely.

多亏了VPN,自从搬到新西兰后,每届皇家综艺表演我都没错过。重要的不是节目本身,而是那种与家乡相连的感觉。哪怕这种联系只是杰西J唱歌,再加一位公爵礼貌鼓掌。
