Sakurai Sho featured nude in Anan magazine

by Fiona

Sakurai Sho(Arashi) challenged his first nude in the Fashion Magazine An An. “I’m not the sexy one in Arashi.” It was a surprising offer for him though he worked out with his personal trainer and he threw down his looks-great-without-clothes upper body and even his butt. Unexpected sexy intelligent caster with nothing on, fans must be excited.

He is in the news show as reporter with suit on though blast shots titled “men’s body” will be inserted on the magazine cover plus 8 pages in the latest issue of “An An.” He shows his beauty of the body in 6 pictures includes his six-pack on the cover of a magazine, one with half of his butt showing and underwear shot.

He had this offer in last fall. This was a amazing project for him too. “I never expected this. When I were offered I thought ‘No way’!” He took this offer full of drive because “Surprise is part of our job. This is a big challenge for me also.” He has been working out from last August for Arashi’s national tour for 10th anniversary since their debut then his nude offer fall in. “If I’m showing my body, I want to be prepared” He worked even harder.

Photoshoot was in the early December. He is pretty confident “I could relax because the light from the window was so beautiful” Masahiro Kumai, chief editor of an an, acclaimed “Pure, sexy, androgynous but with scent of a man.” Sakurai talked a lot about sexiness of a women “I guess it comes from her life style or way of life.”

How is his beauty of his body? I can’t imagine without exciting. You can expect so much on Sakurai!

Holy, I had reread the article just to make sure, our little newscaster is being featured in Anan! Off I went searching and there they were on boys_paper. :glassy:

I’m so happy that the photoshoot was done with class and taste unlike some that were dirty and cheap, not going to name anyone though *coughs*. Sho-kun certainly has a beautiful body and can be quite sexy at time like Jun-kun…in a very good way! XO

This definitely caught me by surprise, wasn’t expecting an upbeat song, maybe something along the lines of dark and sexy like Truth. But I have no complaints, Sora Takaku is a very good song. As always, the Sakurap is awesome and the lyrics represent so many things, which Jun-kun had previously pointed out. The Kanji, Romanji and English lyrics can be found here. I enjoy it even more after reading them!

…and here’s Troublemaker, themesong to Sho-kun’s drama – Tokujo Kabachi!!:

In the CM which to be aired from 16th, Matsumoto will be the first male spokesperson of this brand. He starred as the eyelash artist, “It’s good to be a man of few words, working hard and stylish!” commented Matsumoto. In addition, he also mentioned that he liked “makeup of strong will with expressive eyes!”

Matsumoto appeared in the same clothes as in the CM, and he repeated the slogan “Power up!” more than planned and seemed liked the slogan a lot by saying “I am already get used to it!”. He enjoyed character a lot this time because “I have been always told that ‘you have long eyelash!” since I was a child.” In the end, he concluded:”Let’s power up the makeup, as well as the economy!”

He is so darn cute here, his smiles are always so heartwarming.

The image at the top is from the Kose Fabio website. This is the first time that I’ve been a Johnny’s face so crystal clear on a 3rd party source (well beside what fandom has uploaded). It appears that Kose had purchased the copyrights from JE, I’m wondering if other companies are going to do the same for our other JE artists.
