Foreigners in PVs

Have you ever noticed when there's foreigners in PVs, or dramas, or movies that they always seem... I don't know. Fake? Like their faces and actions seem overexaggerated and the way they talk seems fake too. Has anyone else noticed this?

I'm pretty sure some of them are Russian. Or around there. Plus Japan isn't all Japanese foreign people live there too.

The young boy in Love so sweet creeps me out o__o
Surely they can get foreigners in Japan~ It's like any other country where we find people from different origins ^^

I think the reason theres so many foreiners in dramas, movies, especially PVs is because to japanese they look exotic. They don't usually see people of other ethnicities in thier country. Any it's always fun to "mix" things up.

Yeah, i've noticed this too. Kuu's "unmei" PV, and Ayu's "Dearest" PV come to mind...
Most of the foreign people I see in PVs have more of a european look to them (I don't mean to offend anyone) no one really looks American...

No offense but WTF. What is a "european look"? I'm sorry but I've been to Europe & the USA (I'm from Canada) and you can't tell Caucasian Americans apart from Europeans by their looks.

my background is european (kinda, like from germany/europe/poland), and i'm caucasian, lol.

anyway, i remember there being a thread somewhere on how foreigners were in alot of ayumi's PVs specifically. but anyway, i don't think it's bad to have non-asians in PVs. makes it more interesting to watch.

^I don't think it's bad to not have asians in your PV, but it's not good either. It's like c'mon, rep your people. But then again...I don't really care. lol. It's just that those foreigners are creepy.
