If your favourite winner‘s acceptance speech was cut off during the Golden Globes, don’t blame Chloe Flower.
The famend pianist was one thing of a breakout star throughout Tuesday’s awards present, as she capped the telecast’s business breaks with snippets from recognizable display songs comparable to “Take My Breath Away” from “Top Gun,” “Under the Sea” from “The Little Mermaid,” and the themes from “Sex and the City,” “M*A*S*H” and “The Exorcist” (all of which she organized herself, by the best way).
However, when winners’ prolonged speeches had been interrupted by a piano interlude, many on social media concluded that the wrap-up music was coming from Flower herself. Even Michelle Yeoh, who received the award for actress in a movement image — musical or comedy for “Everything Everywhere All at Once,” responded to the cue by saying in her speech, “Shut up, please. I can beat you up, OK? It’s that serious.”
Flower — a Korean American performer who was found by Kenny “Babyface” Edmonds and has beforehand collaborated with Celine Dion, Meek Mill and Cardi B — spoke up in regards to the matter on-line in the midst of NBC’s telecast. “I would never play piano over people’s speeches!!” she tweeted. “I’m only playing when you see me on camera!”
Additionally, host Jerrod Carmichael launched Flower to the viewers for a spherical of applause, and clarified onstage that the speeches’ cue was certainly a prerecorded observe.
Flower, who not too long ago launched a brand new single, “Golden Hour,” through Sony, was a recent addition to the awards present. “I’ve been watching them since I was little, but up until this Golden Globes, I’ve never seen a live musician playing,” she stated in an interview earlier than the ceremony. “I think it’s really cool and it will be an intimate vibe, solo piano only. I’ve never done anything like this. The Globes have never seen anything like this. I think it’s going to be such a unique experience for them to see a live musician.”
