Sounds mysterious, but you already know who she is. "Fruit Sister," or "shui guo jie," is what people in China call Katy Perry -- referring to her tendency to wear fruit costumes and bringgiant fruit with her on stage.

听上去很神秘,但其实你早就认识她。"水果姐"or"shui guo jie"是中国人给Katy Perry起的外号,因为她总是穿水果样式的服装,登台表演时也带着许多巨大的水果。
In the past, the pop star has performed in sparkly watermelon-cup bras, sung whileholding a large inflatable strawberry and even burst out of a giant banana.
过去的表演中,Katy Perry穿过耀眼的西瓜胸衣,一边唱歌一边拿着巨大的充气草莓,甚至从一个大香蕉里一跃而出。
But"Fruit Sister" isn't the only Western celeb to get an interestingChinese alias. Here are a few others and the stories behind them:
但水果姐不是唯一一个有好玩中国别名的外国明星,下面是其他好玩的名字和他们背后的故事。
Lord of Butt
洛霸

Jennifer Lopez is known as the "Lord of Butt" in parts of Hong Kong and China.

詹妮弗·洛佩兹在香港和中国内地被称为"洛霸"。
A popular nickname for Jennifer Lopez in Hong Kong and China is "luo ba," whichtranslates to "Lord of Butt."
詹妮弗洛佩兹在香港和中国内地比较流行的昵称是"洛霸",翻译过来的意思是"美臀天后"。
Either way, it's a fitting moniker for the superstar who revealed her bare behind inthe music video for her song "Booty."
无论怎样,这个绰号对于这位巨星来说都很名副其实,她曾在Booty这首歌的MV里一展自己的引以为傲的美臀。
Curly Blessing
卷福

What a Curly Blessing!

多么卷的卷福!
Benedict Cumberbatch is known as "Curly Blessing," or "juan fu."
本尼迪克特·康伯巴奇被称作"卷福"
In Mandarin, "juan" means curly, referring to Cumberbatch's curlyhairstyle in his role as Sherlock Holmes.
在普通话里,juan就是卷曲的意思,指的是康伯巴奇在神探夏洛克里的一头卷发造型。
"Fu"means happiness, fortune, or blessing -- and it's the first part of the Chinesename for Sherlock Holmes.
Fu的意思是幸福、好运或祝福,也是"福尔摩斯"的第一个字。
Put those two together, and you get something like "Curly Sherlock" or, morepoetically, "Curly Blessing."
综合上面两点,就能得出一个类似"卷夏"或者更有诗意的"卷福"的名字。
