Hi this is Tutor Nick P and this is Noun Phrase 71. The noun phrase today
is stage-fright. Okay. Let's take a look at the note here.
if someone experiences stage fright he or she gets afraid before having to face
an audience. Okay. Let's take a look at the note here. Let's continue. Let's look at example
number one. If you want to be a professional singer you must get over
your stage fright. Yeah. I think if I remember correctly. I think the old
singer Carly Simon used to have stage fright sometimes. She might even cancelled
some tours if I remember correctly. A long time ago. Orr there was a movie
called ; Coyote Ugly' I remember years ago where the main girl was you know, trying
to make it big but that was her biggest problem is that she had stage fright too.
So again if you want to be a performer at all you can't have stage fright. I
also remember the comedian, Jerry Seinfeld he always used to have a ...he used to ....
he used to tell his jokes where yeah that once he seen a list of the
things that scared people the most and actually giving a speech or doing
something in front of an audience was actually number one. And number two was
death and he was trying to make a joke out of that that people are more afraid
of giving a speech in front of an audience or you know or performing in
front of an audience than they are of dying. So well anyway, let's go on. Let's
look at example number two. Even though he experienced some stage fright , Jack
was able to get his nervousness under control and give a good speech. Yeah.
Sometimes you can still have stage fright and still go out and do it. And
still hopefully go out and not mess up or not stumble over your words or
something like that. Okay good. Let's look at the third one here. They often tell
someone who is going to give a speech if you want to control your nervousness to
imagine the audience in their underwear. Yeah. I never really thought this might
work out. Personally I think this would be very distracting, but you often heard
people say that. You know if you're too nervous just just imagine the whole
audience is in her underwear that would be very , very distracting.
But anyway that's what they do say. Okay. I hope you got it. I hope it's clear.
Thank you for your time. Bye-bye.
