1) Yuusuke Kamiji
2) Hiroshi Tamaki
3) Ryuta Sato
4) Shun Oguri
5) Yuusuke Yamamoto

Yuusuke is now popular for his character in "Quiz! Hexagon II" so that explains his strange appearance at the top position. Hiroshi and Oguri are common choices as usual.

Who would you want to go on a drive with?
For actresses,
1) Yui Aragaki
2) Aya Ueto
3) Haruka Ayase
4) Maki Horikita
5) Masami Nagasawa

Going for a drive with Ayase sounds fun. HAHA. She looks extremely blur type of girl.

For actors,
1) Hiroshi Tamaki
2) Ryuta Sato
3) Shun Oguri
4) Yuuta Hiraoka
5) Kenichi Matsuyama

L is here, that is a strange sight. LOL.

For actors,
1) Yuusuke Kamiji
2) Masaharu Fukuyama
3) Tsuyoshi Doumoto
4) Hiroshi Tamaki
5) Kouichi Doumoto & Shun Oguri

Again, spot Yuusuke. Fukuyama? Was this survey done on the older group of ladies in Japan? I wonder...

For actresses,
1) Masami Nagasawa
2) Aya Ueto
3) Yui Aragaki
4) YUI (singer)
5) Ai Otsuka & Saki Aibu

YUI is here too. Prehaps because of her recent release of new album.

These days, results can be pretty strange. But still the top posts of the surveys are likely to be to same few. Like Aya, Yui Aragaki for actresses. Oguri, Hiroshi and Ryuta for actors.

Oricon Survey: Top 20-Years-Old in 2008

Thursday, April 17, 2008

Oricon asked a thousand people to name which 20-year-old celebrity they think will have a breakthrough year in 2008.

Results as follows:
1) Yui Arargaki
2) Maki Horikita
3) Erika Toda
4) Meisa Kuroki
5) Mikako Tabe
6) Ai Fukuhara
7) Miliyah Kato
8) Akiyoshi Nakao

The top three happen to be my favorite stars at the moment. Yui with her raising popularity and Newcomers' awards is definitely a hot-fav. Maki has gained so much fame through her role in Hana Kimi that got her various endorsement jobs and even a album cover in the new compliation CD - First Love though Maki herself has admitted before that she totally cannot sing.

Erika Toda is also one of the most popular young actress in Japan at the moment. Having opportunities to star in so many popular drama along with really cute male idols, like Kame and Yamapi. She also got to cast in the popular movie like Death Note. I believe the peak of her career has just started. =)

Oricon - Best Looking in Sneakers

Thursday, April 10, 2008

Survey conducted by Oricon on the artists whom look best in sneakers.

Results as follows:

Male Category
1) Takuya Kimura
2) Teppei Koike
3) Tsuyoshi Kusanagi
4) George Tokoro
5) Shun Oguri
6) Toma Ikuta

Female Category
1) Aiko
2) Becky
3) Aya Ueto
4) Kaela Kimura
5) Ai Otsuka
6) Yui Aragaki
7) Maki Horikita
8) Aya Hirayama, Koda Kumi, YUI

It is not surprising to see Kimura topping the charts here as he is the Best Male Jeanist. Surprised to see Uncle George in the charts winning Shun and Toma.

Aiko is known for her casual dressing, sneakers are definitely her style. Becky's popularity is rising after being a constant guest on certain variety shows and her exaggerating drama - Anna No . Surprisingly she won Aya in this chart. Aya Ueto remains as one of the most bubbly character that sneakers just matched her naturally.

Young stars like Ai and Maki definitely look cute in sneakers. Yui seems to be more feminine on her dressing with all the long dresses but perhaps her schoolgirl style makes everyone thinks she look good sneakers.

Most Kissable Lips

1st - Misaki Itou
2nd - Aya Ueto
3rd - Waka Inoue
4th - Haruka Igawa
5th - Haruka Ayase, Nanako Matsushima

As we can see, most are actresses whom endorse cosmetic brands like Shiseido, KOSE, Fashio, etc. No wonder, they are known to have tender kissable lips.

Hime Kaji (Casual Princess)

1st - Shoko Nakagawa
2nd - Kyoko Fukada
3rd - Yuko Ogura
4th - Yuri Ebihara
5th - Ayumi Hamasaki
6th - Erika Sawajiri
7th - Yu Aragaki

Spring Fashion Leaders

1st - Yui Ebihara
2nd - Yui Aragaki
3rd - Miho Kanno, Namie Amuro, Yuu Aoi, Yuko Takeuchi

Yui Ebihara has topped the same survey last year, it is not surprising her spring looks has won many voters who are in their 20s. Yui Aragaki is the teenage sweetheart in this survey.

Cherry Blossom Beauty

1st - Nanako Matsushima
2nd - Yukie Nakama
3rd - Yuko Takeuchi
4th - Mika Nakashima
5th - Sayuri Yoshinaga, Koyuki

Nanako leads this survey, it is quite natural but I wonder what is Yukie doing in this survey. Maybe I have seen too much of her in Gokusen so I seriously cannot associate Cherry Blomssom with her. LOL

Adventure with a celebrity

Male Celebrity
1st - Masaru Hamaguchi
2nd - Hiroshi Tamaki
3rd - Shingo Katori

Female Celebrity
1st - Shoko Nakagawa
2nd - Becky
3rd - Koda Kumi, Chinatsu Wakatsuki
4th - Yui Aragaki

Masaru has very strong survival skills so it is natural he is 1st but Hiroshi and Shingo are like comedians. Japanese women probably like humorous guys' company. HAHA.

Same applies for the female list, Becky and Koda Kumi are such funny people. I would not want Yui on my adventure, she looks so vulnerable and fragile. Will she break a bone while climbing a tree? =X
