Shadowing Practice: Sabrina Carpenter Creates Her Self Portrait | Vanity Fair - Learn English Speaking with Video
Les maken...
1
I think over the last year, I've heard from a lot of people like, "Wow, she's just like the horniest girl alive." You know, because sometimes in my songs, I...
2
I say some crazy things on stage, but I'm actually a very normal amount of horny.
3
Hello, I'm Sabrina Carpenter, and today I'm going to be painting my self -portrait.
4
Drawing for me is the most free -handed pastime activity that I have in my whole life.
5
Like, I don't really ever think about it.
6
I don't think about the outcome.
7
I don't think about what I'm doing before I do it.
8
I just sort of do it for fun, which I guess in a sense is like the most pure thing that's ever come out of my mouth.
9
But I really do see it as more just like something I do
10
that makes me happy as opposed to something I do with the intention of hoping it turns out great.
11
I think even this is like probably like a weird version
12
of me that's like not actually what I look like in the mirror.
13
I've just always had like Light hair, dark eyebrows, blue eyes.
14
And I didn't realize that that would be the thing that kind of haunts me for the rest of my life, because like my bangs and my dark eyebrows,
15
like I can't really, even wearing a mask doesn't really do much if I'm trying to be, you know, incognito.
16
I think for me right now, you aren't ever really going to fully control the way that people see you.
17
That is something I have to re -accept kind of every day.
18
I take it so seriously and the things that people say just
19
know that these are people that have very little context on me as an actual person.
20
So that makes me feel a little bit better.
21
But if I'm going to be super real, like, do I like that someone can just take a photo from the craziest angle on human earth?
22
No, but because I'm a girl and I'm, you know.
23
That maybe is my least favorite thing about being on tour.
24
Because I'll be like...
25
That's what I look like.
26
But it's a video.
27
So I'll just be like, "No, that was some other girl.
28
That was my alter ego." That wasn't me out there.
29
It hasn't really shifted other than the fact
30
that I think it's really exciting and heartwarming now that when people come up to me, it's because of the songs that I write.
31
I mean, they're so close to me and they're so personal.
32
It's like an extension of me.
33
Whereas shows and different films I've worked on have
34
They're a collaboration of
35
so many different people coming together to create a product as
36
opposed to just you know all the pressure sort of being on me and the words I'm saying.
37
I've always felt the safest to create when I'm in the recording studio.
38
Specifically, like I have some favorite studios of mine and they usually have a very like outdoor essence to them.
39
I love.
40
being close to the outdoors when I'm writing.
41
It's where I've always just felt kind of the safest to experiment.
42
At least when you're in the studio, like, nothing has to be final, nothing has to come out.
43
So I feel really free to just kind of try things.
44
The one album that inspired me to really follow my gut in Experimenting with genre and not limiting myself was Lemonade.
45
like it really transcended every genre.
46
She had kind of a little bit of everything in
47
that album and that really made me feel like I didn't have to just stay in a box.
48
from there on out.
49
So thanks, Beyonce.
50
I love you.
51
It's a bit of a shit show right now as I'm 24
52
a process of making mistakes and not trying to like stay up every night thinking about those mistakes, but rather just being like this was bound to happen as you are 24
53
and give yourself some grace to move on and learn from it and, you know, maybe write songs about it.
54
So I think it's a mixture of that
55
and then a mixture of just trying not to take it all so seriously and
56
have fun and I guess essentially what they say are the times you're going to like look back on
57
and feel like you were really forming a lot of who you ended up becoming.
58
So I try to give myself the opportunity to do that.
59
I try to make decisions now that you know, maybe I'd be too afraid to make because I'm young and I can get away with more.
60
I'm on the bangs.
61
This is looking great.
62
I literally cut my bangs because someone broke my heart and I was just like, I have to do something.
63
And I'm not usually one of those people that has to make like rash decisions when their feelings are hurt, but that was my like first real heartbreak.
64
And so I guess it just like sparked that initial, like I have to do something different, but I never wanted to dye my hair because I always really felt comfortable as, you know, blonde the way I was born.
65
I really think of being this age is Some days you can feel like truly borderline so conceited and obnoxiously confident.
66
And then all it takes is like, Someone saying one thing
67
that just strikes a chord in you to be like I'm actually the ugliest person ever exists
68
And then it kind of is a big, you know flip -flop, but I think for me I
69
I feel like I have better things to worry about than the way that I look.
70
Yes.
71
I do feel, yeah, like I'm not gonna lie, like I definitely feel like a little bit more pressure on like, You know, the words that I...
72
choose to say and just in general kind of like decisions, but I then also have to think about it on the scale of like
73
if you know the people that are judging my answers so
74
harshly and critically were put in the same position like would they nail it and crush it every time?
75
Probably not.
76
So then I feel a little bit better.
77
I I think over the last year I've heard from a lot of people like,
78
"Wow, she's just like the horniest girl alive." Because sometimes in my songs I say some crazy things on stage.
79
But I'm actually a very normal amount of horny and also just, you know, a lot of it is because I'm able to kind of have fun and play.
80
And, you know, when I'm doing these live shows it's just a matter of not taking things too seriously and
81
I love play on words and I love funny innuendos.
82
It's just always been something that makes me laugh. So.
83
Yeah, I'm not the horniest girl alive for sure.
84
A lot of people have careers that I admire for different reasons.
85
Stevie Nicks is one of my favorite artists.
86
She's just such a legend.
87
Margot Robbie is someone I love.
88
I like the choices that she makes
89
and how she kind of is able to really showcase herself
90
and all her talents in very different ways and produces a lot of the stuff that she makes.
91
I think that's really impressive and amazing.
92
Tendaya.
93
obsessed with Zendaya.
94
And I think that she's always, again, kind of really just remained so true to herself.
95
I would say in the last few years especially, like, people that have come into my life have really affected the music
96
that I've made and what I've written about and what has felt important enough to write about.
97
I'm actually quitting to become a professional painter and fan.
98
And yeah, I am...
99
I'm only specifically making paintings for the Louvre right now, exclusively, but I might write another song at some point.
100
I almost love like playing on the idea of like what a pop star is
101
or isn't because I think it's so many different things.
102
But no, I like being a pop star, I'm not going to lie.
103
I have so many tricks up my sleeve.
104
My favorite thing about this time in my life is I feel really, really inspired to just
105
continue to write and write about the things that confuse me
106
and make me happy and make me sad and make me excited and You know, I think I felt a lot more comfortable in my own voice after my last album came out.
107
And just that tour brought me a lot closer to
108
my fans and I can just kind of have fun with it now, which is nice.
109
Honestly, the pandemic sort of did a lot for me
110
because I just really realized in that period of time that all of this is very uncertain and
111
It makes me happy to write music, regardless of if someone hears it or no one hears it.
112
Like, I just love writing music because I love it.
113
And that made me kind of want to just feel a little bit more loose in what I was writing
114
and not having to worry so much about the aftermath of it all.
115
More just like, this is what feels honest.
116
And it felt like a really big weight off my shoulders.
117
I think my whole thing is I just want to keep surprising myself
118
and learning that I can do things I didn't know I could.
119
Like this painting.
120
I really am not like a painter.
121
I'm more of a drawer.
122
So the painting was like a little scary to me, but this is It's really therapeutic, I'm not gonna lie.
123
I've gotten paint everywhere.
124
But other than that, like, this is super chill.
125
I'm done.
126
Should I sign it?
127
Voila question mark.
128
Do I have to look like that?
129
Because then they're going to be like, "That looks nothing like her." So in my head, this is what I look like.
130
I think that's something that we all need to remember more, though, is like, these answers are fleeting.
131
As I am changing and evolving every two seconds.
132
Same with everybody, you know?

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
