1
Just recently there was a story, and I know one of your attorneys held a news conference.
2
There was a story about you wanting to have a little white boy play you in a Pepsi commercial.
3
That is so stupid.
4
That's the most ridiculous, horrifying story I've ever heard.
5
It's crazy.
6
I mean, why?
7
Number one, it's my face as a child in the commercial, me when I was little.
8
Why would I want a white child to play me?
9
I'm a black American.
10
I'm proud to be a black American.
11
I am proud of my race.
12
I am proud of who I am.
13
I have a lot of pride in who I am and dignity.
14
That's like you wanted an oriental person to play you as a child.
15
Does that make sense?
16
No. So please, people, stop believing these horrifying stories.
17
Then let's go to the thing that is most discussed about you, I think, is the fact that the color of your skin is obviously different than it was when you were younger.
18
And so I think it has caused a great deal of speculation.
19
and controversy as to what you have done or are doing.
20
Are you bleaching your skin?
21
And is your skin lighter because you don't like being black?
22
Okay, number one, there, as I know of, there is no such thing as skin bleaching.
23
I have never seen it.
24
I don't know what it is.
25
Well, they used to have those products growing up.
26
I used to hear, always use bleach and glow, but you'd have to have about 300 ,000 gallons.
27
Okay, number one, this is the situation.
28
I have a skin disorder that destroys the pigmentation of the skin is something
29
that i cannot help okay but when people make up stories
30
that i don't want to be who i am it hurts me
31
so it is it's a problem for me okay i can't control it okay
32
but what about all the millions of people let's reverse it
33
okay what about all the millions of people who sit out
34
in the sun to become darker to become other than what they are nobody says nothing about
35
that so when did this start
36
when did your the color of your skin start to change
37
oh boy I don't sometime after thriller mm -hmm around off -the -wall thriller
38
and what did you think I mean you it's in my
39
family my father said is on his side I can't control
40
it I don't understand I mean it makes me very sad I don't want to go into my medical history
41
because that's something that's private but that's the situation here so please
42
when people see okay I just want to get this straight
43
you are not taking anything to change the color of your
44
skin God no you did not purposely trying to control it
45
and using makeup evens it out because it makes blotches on the skin
46
and I have to even out my skin
47
but you know it's funny why is that
48
so important you know that's that's not important to me I'm a great fan of art I love Michelangelo
49
if I had a chance to talk to him
50
or read about him I would want to know about what
51
inspired him to become who he is the anatomy of his
52
craftsmanship not about who he went out with last night
53
or why he decided to sit out in the sun
54
so long what's wrong with I mean that's what's important to me hi youtubers

この動画を使ったシャドーイングのステップ

動画で英語学習をする際、シャドーイングは効果的な方法です。特にこのビデオは、感情豊かな発音と自然なリズムが特徴なので、以下のステップで取り組んでみましょう。

  1. 1回目：動画を聴きながら、全体の流れを把握します。マイケル・ジャクソンの感情の変化に注目してください。
  2. 2回目：フレーズごとに一時停止し、自分で繰り返します。"It's something that I cannot help"のような長い文は、節ごとに分けて練習しましょう。
  3. 3回目：シャドーイングを試します。ネイティブの発音に合わせて、遅れながら（0.5秒程度）発声します。リズムとイントネーションを真似ることが重要です。
  4. 4回目：録音して自分の発音を確認します。ネイティブとの違いを見つけ、修正してみましょう。

この方法は、IELTS スピーキング対策にも役立ちます。shadowing siteやshadowspeaksなどのプラットフォームを使えば、より効率的に練習できます。英語スピーキング練習は継続が大切です。毎日10分でも取り組めば、確実に上達しますよ！

シャドーイングとは？英語上達に効果的な理由

シャドーイング（Shadowing）は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的：ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影（shadow）」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
