Make a Wish?
8th March 2010 12:15
Yesterday... ta-da!
There was an introductory meeting and first rehearsal for 'Yankee-kun to Megane-chan' which will begin on 23 April, 10pm~!
It was the first time I heard about the order of the scenes and ideas from the director, and I think that it would be a really great drama
The cast and character are strong, there were new people and those that I haven't seen in a long time
It was fun during practice, and I had to keep the laughter in from start to finish [laugh]
I'm gonna enjoy it once it begins!
Everyone, look forward to it!!
Changing the subject,
there's something terrible...
I have a mole on my neck!?
There's one strand of hair growing there
This might be hard to believe
But it's about 7cm [laugh]
There's an absurd long, thin strand of hair on my neck!!
When I was wearing my parka this morning
It got stuck and that's when I found out about it
I never knew it existed!!
But mole with hair
Does it bring good luck?
Worrying about whether the next drama would be a hit, but with the usual Narimiya style, I got rid of it
My body is unbelievable!!
This has been Narimiya.

7th March 2010 13:12
The day after the preview of 'Darling wa Gaikokujin', we went to LA to shoot for Shonen Magazine♪
The shoot was with Kodansha's M-san, writer Kuriyama-san, cameraman Saito-san and assistant Nakajo-san, who have always taken care of us.
With such fun members, the shoot went smoothly without a hitch!!
(Day 1)
Even in the outskirts of LA, it was cloudy...
When it cleared up a little, the shoot started!!
Feeling jet-lagged, there was a sleepy atmosphere in the bus but this scenery was impressive♪
Actually, there was a pretty strong breeze blowing and it got cold. All the sleepiness was jolted out of Mao-san (*laugh*)
During shooting, the rain would stop, then heavy rain as we're changing locations, it'll stop again during shooting... and the cycle went on!
Known Rain Man M-san was uttering prayers in the car (*laugh*)
Then, we arrived at BAGDAD CAFE. Took a photo with the cafe assistant as a keepsake♪
This cafe had also been used in a movie, a famous place for those in the know.
Mao-san also took many photos with her own digital camera.
Then, Mao-san wrote the name of all the staff who came for the location shoot in the cafe's guestbook and also did some publicity. 'Darling wa Gaikokujin opens 10th April! Watch it!' (*laugh*)
If you ever go there on a trip, check it out!
The sky was always cloudy, but in contrast the sexy...
During dinner, everyone was looking over the photos admiringly.
There were many beautiful and fantastic shots.
Mao-san was squirming as she was repeatedly scrutinized! She felt embarrassed♪

Hello ☆
8th March 2010
I'll be writing my blog here from today onwards.
Probably I'll update once a week, but it depends on whether there's any announcement to be made, so it might be irregular. Do come and visit once in a while ♪
These days, I've been working hard to improve myself.
Reading books, watching movies, cooking and studying...
I had a meal with a friend whom I've not met for a long time from senior high school.
She has been listening to 'Wonder Song' by S.R.S, a song which I was involved in the PV sometime back. The song gives her encouragement as she goes on a job hunt. I was really glad to hear that. Being able to do that makes me want to work hard too. From now on, I'll do my best.
Yoroshiku onegaishimasu!

Liar Game Stage Greet
On 6th March, the stars of 'Liar Game The Final Stage' took to the stage to greet fans on the opening day of the movie. Director Matsuyama Hiroaki joined Toda Erika, Matsuda Shota, Tanabe Seiichi, Kichise Michiko, Suzuki Kousuke and Hamada Mari on stage.
Toda, who plays the painfully honest Kanzaki Nao, has repeatedly been taunted by Suzuki's character Kinoko with his trademark "Baka da yo nee" whenever her naivety is exposed. "That line wasn't in the script. When it was just screamed into my ear so suddenly, I got such a shock,"she confessed. Her reaction to being called a 'baka' wasn't an act after all and now that it's over she said with relief,"I'm glad I won't be called a baka anymore."
Suzuki though, quickly defended himself. "No, it definitely was in the script. I wouldn't just say 'Baka da yo nee' out of the blue, right?" The audience obviously liked the line though because they requested him to say it again and cheered when he complied.
The audience were also given the chance to take part in the 'Garden of Eden Game' featured in the movie. The 502 people in the audience had red, silver and gold apple cutouts with them and were told that if everyone were to put up the red one, they would all receive a special postcard set. However, if a lone gold or silver apple were to appear, that one person will receive travel vouchers worth 100,000 yen. The game is void with any other outcome.
Toda appealed,"Let's all show red!" The result? 499 red, 2 gold and 1 silver. As the audience booed the 'betrayers', the Akiyama in Shota confidently spoke up,"There's no way it was going to be all red, I was sure of that." Toda also replied in character,"For a moment I thought there were only red ones, and then I saw the glint of gold. I believed in you. What a pity."
The movie is now showing nationwide.

TGC!!
7th March 2010 00:24
Today, I made a brief appearance......
On TGC
It's the tenth anniversary of my debut as an actor this year,
it's also TGC's 10th year holding their exhibition, so I guess it's great timing?
I was really hyped up about it
A collaboration effort with FREE'S MART for a first ladies item
The theme
Sexy Military
It's a style that girls would want to wear freely for this summer
For the runway, I had the popular Sasaki Nozomi-chan who's in the same company as me to wear it
There's a limited number
Those who weren't able to attend TGC, do check it out as well
I was a secret guest
The previous entry became somewhat like a quiz as I wasn't able to inform everyone
Sorry
TGC is dangerous ne
It's rare that I get so many thousands of screams, I was a little nervous at first...
Then I really enjoyed it
On stage
The voices felt like tremors that were passed down rapidly
The screams of the girls today
Is like an earthquake of M7. Or M8
A major one [laugh]
I really had fun
Thank you everyone for your support
In the dressing room
Standing between Sasaki and me is the office beauty, our company president
This has been Narimiya.

The 10th Tokyo Girls Collection took place in Yokohama Arena on 6th March, drawing a crowd of 25,000 screaming fans to the premier fashion event that introduces casual wear for the coming seasons.
21 brands were showcased by more than 70 popular models and special guests. As the models strutted down the runway in the spring/summer collection, the audience can order anything that catches their eye on the spot through their mobile phones.
The guest models were also a highlight of the event. Popular personality Becky appeared in her 'Prince on his day off' inspired look, drawing loud cheers from the crowd. IMALU modeled a jacket and bag she designed herself and Inoue Mao appeared in a pure white wedding dress.
In the second half of the show, Kato Miliyah, Koda Kumi and Shimizu Shota performed live. The 'Real Clothes Festival' lasted for more than 6 hours.

Matsuda Shota tackles juggling
A new CM for UHA e-ma Throat Candy starring actor Matsuda Shota (24) will start airing on the 6th. While the previous CM had Shota tap dancing, the second in the series has him trying out another new experience. Under the guidance of pro juggler Morita Tomohiro, Shota was able to juggle 3 objects within 15 minutes on the first day of practice. Besides practicing in the studio, he also did some on his own at home during his free time. On the day of the shoot, he was still enthusiastically juggling the throat candy cases in the corner before filming started. With all the work he had put in, he said confidently,"I'm not that nervous anymore." On camera, he moved naturally and the shoot wrapped up without a hitch.

Full Post »The Return of Hoso Macho!
Nakamura Shido (37) and Matsuda Shota (24) are back battling the Gori Macho in the 3rd installment of Suntory's popular Protein Water ads. The 'Alleluia' version has the Hoso Macho team (Slim Macho) battling the Gori Macho (Gorilla Macho) team in the familiar dance-off, this time on an 80's disco era dance floor.
It has been half a year since their last shoot, but it took only one rehearsal before the two of them were back in the groove. Shido showed off his unique dance moves between takes, shaking his hips from side to side while maintaining a perfectly straight face. The director was so taken in by the comic disparity, he incorporated the moves into the commercial. Shido commented,"Back in high school, I used to make my friends laugh with that move. It brings back memories."
With this being their third CM together, Shido and Shota seem to be getting along well. Referring to the gaudy outfits they had on, Shota asked him,"Shall we go for a drink, just like this?" Shido quipped,"Sounds great, let's go for yakitori too."
The new CM airs from 9th March.
