What kind of idol drama heroine will be liked by the audience?
believes that the answer in most audiences will be: look good!
is just like "'s Little Forest for Two ", from the handsome men to the beautiful and sweet women, it is enough to be eye-catching!
Indeed, idol dramas themselves are not very realistic, and the sweet love story between male and female protagonists is just to satisfy the public's fantasy of love. The heroine's face must be pretty enough to be able to stage the drama of Cinderella's counterattack and fall in love with the handsome guy.
But in contemporary idol dramas, there are many directors' casting vision, I don't know what happened. It is clear that the actor is not good enough, but he still has to challenge the audience's aesthetics and let him play a young, lively, lovely and beautiful girl.
However, the audience's eyes are sharp, and they have always been picky about the casting of idol drama actors. actresses with acting skills may not necessarily be recognized. Wang Shasha , who became popular with the role of "Mo Xiaobei", is a typical example.
Wang Shasha's performance in idol dramas is highly controversial
Wang Shasha, like Guan Xiaotong , Yang Zi, are actresses from child stars, and they can even be said to be more famous than the two of them when they were young. It's a pity that in the entertainment industry where there are so many beauties, Wang Shasha's appearance is too ordinary, and even more ordinary when she grows up, so she is rarely selected for filming.
In 2020, Shasha Wang, who was not under the spotlight, suddenly appeared on the big screen with the love idol drama "Falling in Love with Chef Next Door" starring herself. However, with the filter of the role of "Mo Xiaobei", the audience still can't accept Wang Shasha and the handsome little fresh meat acting as CP, or can't bear her to be the heroine of an idol drama. The heroine Xu Kaikai in
"Falling in Love with Chef Next Door" has a lively and cute personality, but Wang Shasha is not a cute type of girl. Her appearance also cannot meet the public's aesthetic needs for idol drama heroines. Wang Shasha, who wanted to open up the market with this show, has instead ruined her good reputation over the years.
" bottom line " Shu Su came out of the circle
Xu Kaikai, the heroine of the idol drama, made Wang Shasha suffer a lot of doubts. So during the past two years, she did not choose to play idol dramas, but played small supporting roles in some mainstream dramas. After " Mountain and Sea Love ", she also regained her reputation in "The Bottom Line" this time.
"The Bottom Line" gathered many old actors in the entertainment industry, and the audience enjoyed it. Jin Dong , Wang Yinan , Wang Jinsong played with each other, and Wang Shasha became popular again because of the role of Shu Su, allowing the audience to see her brilliant side.
Shu Su doesn't have many scenes in each episode. She plays a judge with excellent ability, and she is also a funny and gossip girl in private. Talking to colleagues is funny, and talking to the leaders is knowledgeable. Her appearance shows us the image of a sophisticated judge.
is wearing a professional suit with a high ponytail, which is the impression Wang Shasha gave the audience in the drama "The Bottom Line". There is no hair dye, no delicate makeup, no beautiful clothes, but she has won the recognition of the audience. why? Because the character is integrated with her image, the audience will not feel embarrassed, nor will it feel inconsistent.
If you don't look good enough, don't play idol dramas
In fact, 30-year-old Wang Shasha, who appeared in the "Bottom Line", also told us a very simple truth: Don't play idol dramas if you don't look good enough. An actress with a beautiful face can indeed be treated leniently by the audience, her acting skills are not good enough, and looking at her face is also a kind of appreciation, but Wang Shasha is not this type of girl.
In terms of looks, she's worse on the heat, and in terms of temperament, she's also a little less cute. In terms of image, the audience has excluded her from the role of idol drama heroine, but sheBut he wanted to try, and in the end, he could only hit the south wall.
The public's aesthetics are actually the same. Wang Shasha has acting skills, but she can't support the heroine image of idol dramas that the public subconsciously thinks. In mainstream dramas, the role she plays does not require beauty or temperament. She only needs to use her acting skills to liven up the role to get out of the circle.
Obviously, different roles have different requirements on the appearance of actors. Wang Shasha can play an ordinary girl or a funny girl, but idol dramas, in the final analysis, are still inappropriate. Because the audience's perception of idol dramas has been fixed.
The handsome guys in reality, most of their girlfriends may be average in appearance, and beautiful boyfriends are not outstanding, but reality is reality, idol dramas are idol dramas. The former is disillusionment, the latter is fantasy.
Of course, this is not an appearance attack, but the actor himself serves the role. If the image does not match the role and is forced to act, it is really difficult to hear praise from the audience.
All in all, actors should also have self-awareness of their external conditions, so that they can choose the right script, choose the right role, and catch the public's attention. is not beautiful in the first place, but it still has to challenge the idol drama that the audience thinks is based on appearance. After all, it is not a wise choice for actresses with insufficient appearance, don't you think?
