The Offical Cross-Dressing J-Pop Guy Singer Thread
 

It's about time I started this! I love those cross-dressing japanese guys singing ^^! http://www.youtube.com/?v=27qHeOUISVo <-- This is amazing... http://www.youtube.com/?v=z0w_o8q8YYg <--- about 3/4 through this video some cross-dressing guy sings "Hey Mickey", ANYONE KNOW HIS NAME?!?! I WANT THAT VID!

The guy singing in the 1st video is Ken Maeda and the one in the 2nd vid is Gorie. Gorie (with Jasmine and Joan) released 2 singles so far, Mickey and PECORI NIGHT.

Thanks! I was listening in the second vid and I thought his name was cori XD

Have you heard of Kagrra? :O..

Nope! Lemme look him up...

LOL, I love Ken Maeda!

I think they're REALLY crazy! And they're like SUPER hilarious! I think only the Japanese are that inventive and open to accept them haha. If this was ever to happen in the English Music Market, I think everyone would reject them like mad ... but yup, appreciate all the crazy para para and catchy tracks haha!

YAY lol....*coughMANAcough*

Mana <333 I've seen the first guy before but I don't know his name.

^^ I love Gorie, he's so awesome and sexy! LOL

LOL indeed. In my country they'd be ridiculed a lot though they still do it mind you XD

I thought this is a jrock forum lol.

weird looking..and the girls in the first vid all look burnt..lol

Hard to say, cross-dressers and transsexuals are popular in Taiwan as well (my mom constantly sees them on variety shows and ALWAYS says that some of the transsexuals are more of a woman than any of us). While I don't think this equals acceptance in either Taiwan or Japan, it is openness to these people to some extent. It's hard to explain, on one hand it's something of a spectacle, on the other hand the audience does actually connect.

The last song in the maeken viceo (BANZAI) is so cool! ^^ Most of the gorie songs aren't altered at all though, they sound mostly the same as the originals. Fun videos, thanks for posting.

Does anybody have more information on Gorie? 0-o 'His' website barely has information on 'him.' >___<"

I heard people from China were going to Taiwan to see the "Boy Girl Group," which are a bunch of cross dressers who put on a show. One of the people talked about how people would except them on stage but outside the theater they wouldn’t be so excepted.

:x In that one with Gorie, what was he saying to Koda?

I love GORIE *_* I fell in love with HER after seeing HER performance in Kouhaku! Now I have to earn some money to buy "Mickey" and "Pecori Night" singles *_*

muwahha, youtube.com is awesome

let me go watch the video now!
