The history of stardom is written on his body in a language of scalpels and creams, of bleaches blended with vitiligo wrapped in money rolling in since Thriller rose through almost every language like a ubiquitous sonic Babel: chin of Kirk Douglas, nose of a comic book elf, cheekbones of Audrey Hepburn, wigs of Bombay women’s hair, hairline of black ink, voice of a child no one could fail to smile at—yes, the color line caged in one procedure after another, but somehow getting out each time, and the self, with its famous business sense, struggling to slip out of the gene pool and make a new body out of tongue clicks and stop time spins, out of vaults onto car roofs, legato runs into octave leaps, the seed of Elvis, and fatherhood and the rights of fame.

明星的历史用手术刀和面霜的语言写在他的身体上，漂白剂与白斑混合在金钱中滚滚而来，自从 Thriller 像无处不在的声音巴别塔一样通过几乎所有语言崛起：柯克·道格拉斯的下巴，漫画书的鼻子精灵，奥黛丽赫本的颧骨，孟买女人的假发，黑色墨水的发际线，孩子的声音无人能不笑——是的，颜色线在一个接一个的程序中被笼罩，但每次都不知何故，自我，以其著名的商业意识，努力从基因库中滑出，用舌头发出咔哒声并停止时间旋转，从拱顶跳到车顶，连奏进入八度跳跃，猫王的种子，以及父权和名誉权。
