Example
Man:That actor was so angry with the film's director and producer that he refused to do any promotional work. But then when he didn't go to the premiere in L.A., there was such a hullabaloo from his fans that he had to apologise.
（演员对电影的导演和制片人十分生气，以至于他拒绝做任何改进工作。但是当他去洛杉矶进行初演时，粉丝很不满于是他不得不道歉）
William: So in that example, a film star didn't go to a premiere and there was a hullabaloo from his fans because they were so angry with him.
Li:在以上例句里 'hullabaloo' 并不表示熙熙嚷嚷的吵闹声，而是指大批粉丝们对这个明星没有到场所纷纷表示不满的情绪，也许是通过博克，或通过媒体上的言词等等。
Now William, 'hullabaloo' is a very strange sounding word! Where does it come from?
William: Well, no-one knows for sure. But some people think that it comes from people going "Hullo! Hullo! Hullo!"
Li:Really? That's very -
（Shouting and banging starts again.）
Li:Oh, our own hullabaloo has started again!
William:Right. I'm going to see what they want!
Gets up and opens studio door.
William:What's all this noise? We're trying to record a programme here!
Fan 1: Is Yang Li here?
Li:Hello, yes? Who is it?
Fan 1: Yes! She is, she is!
Fan 2: Oh brilliant! Hi Li! Hi!
Fan 3: We're your biggest fans! Can we have your autograph?
（我们是你的粉丝，你可以给我们签名吗？）
Li:(Flattered) Oh well, I...
William:Oh Li, I didn't know you had a fan club! Oh well, I think we'd better end the programme there! Goodbye!
（我不知道你的粉丝还成了个俱乐部，我想我们最好结束节目，再见）
Li:(Distracted) Where do you want me to sign? Do you want me to write something special?
（你想让我在哪儿签名？想让我写些特别的吗？）
