在以前的時代，我們會有一兩個超級巨星。但在這十年裏，音樂被女性主導——碧昂斯、泰勒·斯威夫特、阿黛爾、Lady Gaga、凱莉·安德伍德、詹妮弗·洛佩茲。她們通過發出聲音來獲得最大音浪分離的效果。他們的成功似乎是註定的。True Crime Hit It Big
真實的犯罪事件大受歡迎From Netflix's Making a Murderer to podcasts like Dirty John, investigative tales of grisly wrong doing were devoured like gruesome snacks.

That came to an end Sept. 27, 2014, when the then 53-year-old star wed Amal Alamuddin, then 36, a human-rights lawyer. (They now have 2-year-old twins, Ella and Alexander.) The sighs of dashed romantic fantasies can be heard to this day.

The Superhero Universe Expanded
超級英雄宇宙擴張Tina Turner was wrong: We do need another hero. Lots and lotsof heroes. Comic-book my thology has been around for decades — Superman was introduced to readers in 1938 — but in the 2010s superheroes seemed to conquer the world. The whoppingly successful Marvel-based movies filled our heads with the stirring, exciting adventures of Thor, Black Panther, Ant-Man andmore. Star Wars‘s Millennium Falcon rose from the dust for a new trilogy. It wasn't a bad time to be a supervillain, either: 2019's dark, revisionist Joker was an enormous hit.
蒂娜·特納錯了：我們確實需要另一個英雄。很多很多的英雄。漫畫神話已經存在了幾十年——超人是在1938年被介紹給讀者的——但在2010年，超級英雄似乎才征服了世界。漫威系列電影大獲成功，激動人心的冒險故事《雷神》、《黑豹》、《蟻人》等等讓我們目不暇接。《星球大戰》的《千年隼號》又有了新的三部曲。對超級反派來說，這也不是一個壞時機：2019年上映的黑暗、修正主義的《小丑》大獲成功。Melissa McCarthy Ruled

哈里和梅根的婚禮Like William and Kate, Prince Harry and American actress Meghan Markle were greeted as figures out of a story book romance when they wed on May 19, 2018. But they've steered their own course. In a controversial 2019 TV documentary, they both expressed frustration with the endless public andpress scrutiny — she's the most obsessively watched royal since Diana.
和威廉王子和凱特王妃一樣，哈里王子和美國女演員梅根·馬克爾在2018年5月19日結婚時，也被視爲童話故事中的人物。但他們已經掌握了自己的方向。在一部備受爭議的2019年電視紀錄片中，他們都表達了對公衆和媒體無休止審查的不滿——她是自戴安娜王妃以來最受關注的王室成員。Hamilton Combined History and Hip-Hop
