威廉•汉森是英国知名礼仪专家,具有专业的礼仪文化知识,是BBC的礼仪讲师、威廉王子婚礼的高级评论员,在许多国家都开办过礼仪培训讲座和课程。同时,汉森也是《每日邮报》网站的专栏撰稿人。近日,他在该网站上发表的一篇文章中盘点了“2016年最没有礼貌的名人”,还分别给他们颁发了各种名目的奖项。川普、希拉里、威廉凯特夫妇、小甜甜布兰妮以及加拿大总理特鲁多等人均拿到了这个不怎么光彩的大奖。
Ladies and gentlemen, may I welcome you to the Bad Manners Awards 2016?

Despite the reported success of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge's official visit to Canada back in September, timekeeping needs to be looked at for future trips.
尽管报道称,威廉凯特夫妇9月对加拿大的正式访问非常成功,但是,在今后的访问中两人需要注意守时。
There were multiple instances of the glamourous royalty keeping Canadians waiting, including the arrival, where the family took a whole 20 minutes to disembark in order to be greeted by the Canadian welcome party.

Who can forget Prince Harry's unprecedented communique to the media a few months ago over the then speculation over his girlfriend Meghan Markle?
谁都记得几个月前,哈里王子因为媒体对其女友梅格汉•马克尔的猜测而发表了出人意料的公报。
Whatever happened to ‘Never complain; never explain' – the unofficial motto of the House of Windsor?
温莎王朝的非官方座右铭“永不抱怨,永不解释”到底可信不可信?
The media are annoying, we get that, Your Royal Highness, but there may have been more dignified ways for you (and the establishment you represent) to air your concerns.

Britney, YOU drive me crazy for appearing on Loose Women smacking gum like it's 1998 as the panel interrogate you.
布兰妮,你在《放荡女性》节目中吧唧着嘴嚼口香糖的样子快把我逼疯了,那样子就和你在1998年被审问时一个模样。
Have some respect for those who are promoting your work and hosting you to remove the gum before the interview begins.
请尊重一下那些支持你的人以及节目主持人,能在访谈开始前把口香糖吐了吗?
Frankly, this sort of behaviour means you are very much still a girl and definitely not yet a woman.

Nothing tops the insensitivity and stupendous lack of awareness as Lohan's insensitive post five months ago.

LEAST LADYLIKE
最不淑女奖
Recipient: Kim Kardashian
获奖者:金•卡戴珊
No Bad Manners Awards could be complete without a mention of a Kardashian, could it?
没有卡戴珊获奖的不文明大奖能算完整吗?
As the socialite arrived at Kylie Jenner's 19th birthday party in August she alighted her sports car in such a cack-handed (cack-legged, I suppose) way that meant that more was glimpsed than intended.
社交名媛卡戴珊8月份参加凯莉•詹娜的19岁生日聚会时,笨手笨脚从跑车出来的方式让她不小心走光太多了。
Kim, it's so simple and entry-level Finishing School stuff: keep knees and ankles together and swivel.
