Is Jin Akanishi heading for disaster?

Another movie delay and leaked photos of his wife with another Johnny’s talent, rumour has it Jin Akanishi’s future is clouded, reports Cyzowoman on September 4.

It has been reported Akanishi’s upcoming movie 47 RONIN was supposed to be released in the US this November, but has since been delayed twice because of financial issues, having to re-shoot scenes with lead actor Keanu Reeves, and technical delays in processing the movie’s 3D effects. At the moment the movie is aiming for a Christmas 2013 release in the US. However, this could mean Japanese fans would have to wait until 2014 before the movie hits Japanese cinemas.

“I’ve heard that the Universal wasn’t happy that there weren’t many scenes with Keanu Reeves in them, which is why they’re re-shooting some scenes. Apparently the new version will feature more of Keanu while a lot of the samurai scenes will be edited out. Rumour has it that his includes Akanishi’s scenes too. He didn’t have many scenes to begin with so everyone’s worried about what to do if he gets edited out completely,” said one entertainment reporter.

It could spell trouble for Akanishi, who has had his fan club terminated, his US music career put on hold, and very few magazine or TV appearances.

“He’s becoming a person from the past. When his jobs had been cut, he could’ve stayed in contact with his fans using his twitter or facebook pages, but he’s done nothing so far. He will undoubtably get some media attention when Meisa has their baby in October, but if he continues on like this he will disappear. At the moment it doesn’t look like Johnny’s is looking for jobs for him either,” said one source.

His wife and baby could motivate him to work, but the same source had said recently leaked photos of Meisa with another man might have hurt Akanishi’s feelings.

“Gossip magazine FRIDAY had published private photos of a woman with Kis-My-Ft2 member Hiromitsu Kitayama. They’re old photos, but one of them shows the woman, who is supposedly Meisa, trying to kiss Kitayama who’s asleep in bed. It might just be something that happened in the past, but I don’t think Akanishi would be too comfortable with seeing his wife with a Johnny’s talent his agency has been giving a lot of jobs to,” said the same source as above.

i finally listened to the single and i'm sorta disappointed in it? i don't think it's the boys best effort. RADIO is sorta growing on me tho, but i do like Koki's solo. i think it's the standout track on the single.

To me , I feel that Fumetsu no Scrum is much better sounding than TO THE LIMIT & I think the drama driven PV for TO THE LIMIT kinda spoilt things for me a bit

It's a risky PV concept which might or might not have sat well with me . Fumetsu no Scrum on the other hand , the comical parts of the PV are cute which's something I don't really see in their past PVs

KAT-TUN’s Tanaka Koki shaves his legs for upcoming ‘Ooku’ drama

On October 5th, KAT-TUN’s Tanaka Koki attended a premiere event for the TBS drama, ‘Ooku ~Tanjou~ (Arikoto – Iemitsu Hen)‘.

The upcoming ‘Ooku’ drama is based on a popular manga by Yoshinaga Fumi, and it tells the story from the third Shogun Tokugawa Iemitsu era. A mysterious disease causes a sharp decline in the male population, thus women are able to become Shogun.

Tanaka will play a monk in the drama. The story begins when his character is 13 years old. He revealed that he’s been working hard to restore his youth, “I’ve been using skin lotion for skin whitening, and I’ve also lost 7 kg (15.4 lbs).”

He continued, “I shaved the hair on my shins. There aren’t any scenes where you will be able to see it, but please watch it while thinking that I have no shin hair.”

Sakai Masato and Tabe Mikako were also present at the event. ‘Ooku ~Tanjou~ (Arikoto -Iemitsu Hen)’ will air every Friday from 10:00 pm starting October 12th.

Only★Star’s “Artist Who Look Good in Suits” Fall Ranking 2012

Quote:

In the current issue of Oricon’s Only★Star magazine, 500 women readers were surveyed regarding “artists who look good in suits“.

Here is the Top 10 Result:

1) Fukuyama Masaharu: taking the top spot is Fukuyama Masaharu who readers agree that his height contributes to his sense of style. Aside from his sex appeal, his appeal in suits became noticeable after the drama series “Galileo” as well as his CMs for XYLISH.

2) Sakurai Sho: Arashi’s Sakurai, whose job as a newscaster for NEWS ZERO, gave Sakurai an intellectual-appeal especially when he is wearing suits.

3) Kamenashi Kazuya: KAT-TUN’s Kamenashi is mostly seen wearing suits for his stint in Going! as a sportcaster. Aside from that, his endorsement for Aoki menswear and Kirin Afternoon Tea made gave him a good reputation for wearing suits with comments ranging from “cool” and “good posture”.

4) Matsumoto Jun: who looks good in “colourful suits” and whose personality stand-out just by his gaze.

5) GACKT: Praised for his controversial fashion sense and unique charm.

6) Domoto Koichi: KinKi Kids’s Koichi, who looks good in formal and “flashy” suits.

7) B’z Koshi Inaba: who wear suits from time to time for his PVs or magazine covers.

8) EXILE: their slim-cut suit makes the band look cool with their dance moves.

9) THE BAWDIES: wearing suits has always been the band’s trademark.

10) Kimura Takuya: SMAP’s Kimura gets into groove of anything that he wears, he looks good with anything even roughly dressed.
