paparazzo: 狗仔隊(duì)
[ 2006-04-17 13:35 ]
為擺脫媒體的“閃光燈”，好萊塢當(dāng)紅影星安吉麗娜·朱莉似乎在與全球的“狗仔隊(duì)”大玩捉迷藏藏身大法。這不，上個(gè)月人還在巴黎待產(chǎn)，這兩天又被傳其“生產(chǎn)地”將移至非洲納米比亞。
請(qǐng)看外電相關(guān)報(bào)道：Angelina Jolie was overheard saying that she is expecting a girl.
The couple, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, were reportedly to have managed to
evade paparazzi and to have the baby
in Namibia.
報(bào)道中的paparazzi是名詞paparazzo的復(fù)數(shù)形式，源于意大利語，指“專門獵取名人照片的攝像記者”，現(xiàn)被人們泛指為“狗仔隊(duì)”，其確切的英文釋義是：A
freelance photographer who doggedly pursues celebrities to take candid pictures
for sale to magazines and newspapers。
Paparazzo最先出現(xiàn)在1958年，當(dāng)時(shí)意大利著名導(dǎo)演費(fèi)里尼拍了一部影片叫《甜美的生活》，里面的男主角就是一個(gè)專門獵奇的攝影記者。Paparazzo后被香港人翻譯成為“狗仔隊(duì)”，用來指專門從事跟蹤并偷拍名人隱私照片的攝影記者或業(yè)余攝影員，而“狗仔隊(duì)”在粵語中本是香港人對(duì)有專職跟蹤任務(wù)的警探的謔稱。
現(xiàn)在，人們大大擴(kuò)展了paparazzo的使用范圍，它不僅用來指攝影師，還可泛指揭露名人隱私的記者。舉個(gè)例子：
Another symptom of how deeply Americans internalized Diana's death is the
outrage they voiced at the paparazzi and the tabloid
press.（美國人對(duì)戴妃之死的痛切程度，也反映在他們對(duì)狗仔隊(duì)和無聊小報(bào)所表現(xiàn)的憤怒之情。）
