Tamaki Hiroshi "It was really enjoyable"
CM collaboration with photographer Nobuyoshi Araki


11 September 2009


The new CM for Mister Donut is a collaboration between actor Tamaki Hiroshi (29) and photographer Nobuyoshi Araki (69). It will be aired from the 14th onwards.

In the CM, Tamaki promotes the 'Rich Doughnut Chocolate' and 'MisDo Premium Hot Cafe Au Lait'. While Tamaki tastes both items, Araki works the camera for a collection of photographs. During photography, Araki gave quick instructions, heightening Tamaki's tension, who "enjoyed" the session. Araki was full of praise, "Tamaki-san was very perceptive ne."

Doughnuts look so complicated these days.
I just love the simple sugar ones :)

Are the 'fake tears' of Oguri Shun a lie?


12 September 2009


Lead actor Oguri Shun attended the stage greetings for the movie premiere of 'TAJOMARU' in Tokyo on the 12th.

There are many crying scenes for the lead character, and Oguri joked, "I used eyedrops for those scenes." This caused a bit of commotion among the audience. His co-star quipped "But you really did cry properly, didn't you!?" Director Nakano Hiroyuki added "He's the type who doesn't want to lose to anything. He's been crying 20 times a day ne." Oguri, who had turned in an "excellent performance" during filming, grinned sheepishly.

Mizushima Hiro and Hasegawa Jun for Right-on

Mizushima Hiro, captivated by Hasegawa Jun
9th September 2009


Actor Mizushima Hiro and model Hasegawa Jun were the stars at the product launch of Right-on's new line of casual wear 'NEW SHINY DENIM' (ad goes on air from the 11th) on 9th September.

The commercial features the two of them in separate versions. In her version, Hasegawa dons a tight pair of jeans and wriggles her hips in a sexy dance. Mizushima was full of praises and commented,"Without realizing, I was completely captivated."

On hearing that the dance was left up to Hasegawa, Mizushima said admiringly,"That was amazing ne. Beautiful and strong..." He continued, a little downcast,"My (CM making video) was so flat. Frowning all the way..."

Asked about her impression of Mizushima on their first meeting, she said,"He's friendly and such a gentleman. Always 'After you', very kind." With that, Mizushima replied teasingly,"Go on..."

And what's Hiro news without Ayaka, in Nikkan Sports there's a little added at the end of the article. After the interview ended, the reporters shouted,"How's married life (to Ayaka)?" Hiro just smiled.

Kawaguchi Haruna actress debut in Tokyo Dogs




It was revealed on the 7th that model Haruna Kawaguchi (14) will make her debut as an actress on Fuji TV's Monday night drama Tokyo Dogs. She will play the role of Takakura Karin, sister of elite detective Takakura Sou played by Oguri Shun (26). Karin is a 17 year old high school girl who meddles in her brother's life because she cares for him.

Before crank-in, she told Daily Sports in an interview,"I'm appearing in a drama, it feels like a miracle." At the moment, she says she is practicing her lines everyday while in the bath or on the futon.

Kawaguchi could not contain her excitement co-starring with the two ikemens, Oguri and Mizushima. "I saw Oguri-san in Hana Yori Dango, Hanazawa Rui was so cool... I'm really nervous. I love Mizushima-san too!"

Kawaguchi is a model for teen magazine 'nicola'. She has starred in commercials for Mitsui Rehouse and Pocari Sweat. Presently, she is a third year junior high student in Nagasaki and plans to travel to Tokyo during weekends for shooting.

Narimiya Hiroki, Piano Performance!


Birthday Celebration with Fans
6 September 2009


On the 6th, actor Narimiya Hiroki had pre-birthday celebrations with fans at Tokyo Hotel. He had a similar event in Osaka the day before. In total, 900 fans attended. His real birthday is on the 14th. The exciting event was filled with witty speeches and an energetic piano performance, and to top it off everyone was given a necklace as a present.

He started playing the piano last year. During intervals for the Fuji TV drama 'Innocent Love', he practised with Yuzu's Kitagawa Yujin. He trained intensively for a month for this event, especially when he was tired from memorizing lines. He played the theme song from the drama, Utada Hikaru's 'Eternally' and a medley of other tunes.

He was dressed in a bridal tuxedo. When asked about his own wedding, "Sometime ago I went for a palm reading. I'm supposed to get married twice," he said, laughing, "Right now, I'm still kind of weak." Is there a sense of relief among Narimiya's women fans?




27,000 yen x 900 = 24,300,000 yen
His management charged those fans 27,000 yen each to attend his pre-birthday party.
The numbers are just mind-boggling.
A party for fans should be free!

Inoue Mao Staff Diary
5th September 2009



Tengoku de Kimi ni Aetara
5th September 2009 10:37

JNN 50th Anniversary commemorative special drama 'Tengoku de Kimi ni Aetara' will be aired.
24 September (Thursday) 21:00~23:04 (TBS)
Mao-san plays the role of Arashi's Ninomiya-san's wife.
This time, she plays her first mother role (and her children are really cute twins)♪

To film this drama, we were on location at Tateyama, Chiba till about the end of April!
On the train to Tateyama, the music that kept on playing was DCT's Osaka Lover.
So even now, when Osaka Lover plays, Mao-san goes excitedly
"Reminds me of when we went to Tateyama ne~"

Mao-san thought the photo earlier was for a record of what she was wearing, she said it's no good because it was expressionless (*laugh*)
So in exchange, enjoy Natsuko Mama bursting with laughter!!


The other day, she went for a recording of VIP ROOM on 'Himitsu no Arashi-chan!' (TBS).
Before she was on, Mao-san was restless, saying "I'm nervous~!!" (*laugh*)
It was really interesting so everyone, look forward to it♪♪
'Himitsu no Arashi-chan' airs on 17 September (Thursday) at 22:00!!

★Bonus★
There was a little free time before recording, so we went to a bookstore near TBS...
Mao-san bought 2 rakugo books!!
She read them during intervals in today's movie filming too.
After that, went to Starbucks again, and challenged ourselves to the 'Creme Brulee Macchiato', new on the menu!
Her thoughts... it was a little too sweet for Mao-san... (*laugh*)

9th Tokyo Girls Collection


6 September 2009

On the 5th of September, Japan's biggest fashion event, the 9th Tokyo Girls Collection (TGC) was held. Popular models from 24 brands were featured in the event.


Even though the show started only at 14:30, there was already a long line by 09:30. A woman in her 20s who was at the front of the line revealed that she had been there since 07:30 so that she could have a clear view of the runway.


The biggest cheers were unleashed for UNIQLO's model, actor Matsuyama Kenichi. He wore a neo-leather jacket which was a product of collaboration between UNIQLO and TGC.


It was the first time Matsuyama walked down a runway. He commented, "I was nervous and I'm glad it ended safely." Regarding the jacket, he said "It feels good, and it's not heavy. Movements are not restricted."

Actor Mizobata Junpei wore a job-hunting handsome suit from Aoyama Suit Collection, blowing a kiss to the audience as he strutted down the runway. "It felt strange that there's a man appearing on stage when there's so many women, I was tensed. But I really enjoyed myself," he said shyly.


A familiar face for the Aoyama Suit Collection CMs, Aibu Saki also made her appearance on stage. "It's the first time I'm seeing so many ladies, it makes me nervous." Both Mizobata and Aibu are currently in the drama Buzzer Beat. "Aibu-san always has a gentle smile on her," said Mizobata of his co-star. "Somehow it sounds like a lie na," joked Aibu.




I hate Evergreen. Bring me back Junpei's blog!!
And I'm sure Junpei had a blast flirting with all the models. Shy? lol. Maybe he went for more home-hoppings.
