BBC Learning English - Jo Brand 乔·布兰德
Jean: 不过她也承认,在有时候在上台表演之前,她还是有点发怵的!
Andrea: But really, she absolutely loves it!
Jean: 她说,百分之80 的时候,给观众讲笑话听是个极大的乐趣。
Andrea: But it wasn’t always easy for Jo Brand. She realised that it was difficult to be a woman and a comedian.

Well, I look like a scruff bag really. What I did initially – in the old days, as it were – was I realised that, as a woman performer, the more feminine you made yourself look, the worse it was for you really; because people will then just assess you on the basis of your appearance more. So, I just tried to look as neutral as I could, with kind of like hideous baggy leggings and a black t-shirt; which then of course worked in the other direction for me, because people started saying, “Oh god, you know, look at the state of her.”
Jean: Jo 说在以前,作为一名女性的喜剧演员是很不好混的,尤其如果你的外表特别的女性化的话。
Andrea: So she decided to look like a scruff bag.
Jean: A scruff bag – 就是咱们口语里说的“大邋遢兵”的意思。
Andrea: She would wear baggy leggings and a big black t-shirt, so that people wouldn’t assess her on her appearance.
