Hiroshi Tamaki Wants to Collaborate with Stephen Chow

by Fiona

Tamaki Hiroshi held his concert last night at the Hong Kong International Trade & Exhibition Centre in Kowloon Bay. As he had some free time in the afternoon, he accepted interviews from the press, however he arrived about an hour late. Tamaki revealed during the interview that he will be singing and playing the guitar at the concert. He will also be speaking a few lines in Cantonese to introduce himself. At the end of the show, there will be a handshake event to get up close and personal with his fans. As this is already his fourth/fifth time in HK, reporters asked him on his impressions of the ladies here. Tamaki replied: “HK women and Japanese women are quite similar. Both have their charms.”

While on the topic of HK artistes, Tamaki said: “If there is a chance I would like to work with Stephen Chow. I really enjoy his films, especially comedies.” Tamaki appeared to have lost a lot of weight recently. He explained that he was indeed heavier before, but he started going to the gym two months prior to his concert to get back in shape. Tamaki also mentioned he spent time exploring the area close to his hotel and had a chance to eat Chinese food. He hopes to have hot pot after his concert to celebrate. When asked when he’ll be leaving HK? He says he still has to attend a fan meet today.

It would be purely awesome, let’s all pray that Tamaki-kun and Stephen Chow could do a collaboration! I would be swimming in blissfulness if these two (both favorites of mine) could share the same screen. I will be practically in heaven. XO

Also, I hope Tamaki-kun will get back in shape soon, he appears to be extremely thin and undernourished now. He looked extremely healthy as Chiaki-sempai, ganbatte!

Matsumoto Jun Guested on Oguri Shun’s Radio Program

by Fiona

At the end of March, Shun Oguri (小栗旬) will graduate from the radio program “All Night Nippon (オールナイトニッポン)” on which he has been working from 2007. On this, Arashi member’s Jun Matsumoto (松本潤) announced suddenly: “If it is going to end, I’ll go.” and joined the live broadcast as a surprise guest. The two, who are good friends in private, had deep talk at night and showed an unspoken consensus with each other.

Their first encounter was at the shooting of “Gokusen (ごくせん)”. They talked about the first impression on each other and became good friends. Later, they costarred “Hana yori Dango (花より男子)” and spent the whole night in the hotel at Narita airport because of the tight schedule. “I went to Jun’s room. Really? In the hotel at Narita airport? Jun Matsumoto brought the whole volume of the comic of ‘Hana yori Dango’. And, he said ‘Shun, I think this scene is here. I want to read the whole comic, how do you think?’ So we talked about like ‘this man is doing this at this time…’ (laugh)” It seems they talked about the performance at the sleepless night and evidently hit it off with each other.

After the live broadcast, Oguri indicated that he wanted to do something in return for his guesting. And it is said that Oguri’s appearance on the drama “Smile (スマイル)” last year was a response to Matsumoto’s request as well. Actually, they are not only good friends, but also good working partner as well. Let’s look forward to their future collaboration.

Aww, those two, I adore their everlasting friendship! I’ve seen a few dramas with Shun-kun, he is certainly an interesting and talented actor. Now if only Mao-chan could have been there, that would be even more awesome ne.
