  • Charlize Theron by Mikael Jansson for Interview Magazine

    There’s also shots of Theron with Kristen Stewart, but who cares. xD

  • Okaasan to Issho: Itou Mayu, Bye–bye~

    I haven’t really been properly following Okaasan to Issho — this means I haven’t been practicing my Japanese much — so I was really REALLY surprised: first, when they changed the weather mascots so soon. I suspect it didn’t suit well with the whole Tohoku Earthquake. They seemed to have lasted just a couple of years compared to some of the others…

    Anyway, the second thing that surprised me was… Itou Mayu is no longer there! Apparently she did her last show by the end of March. Sadly, I haven’t found any clip of that online.

  • Fan Bingbing for Vogue China by David Slijper

    There’s a stunning photoshoot with Fan Bingbing in the June issue of Vogue China, that somewhat reminded me of Alice in Wonderland. I think that has to do with the blond and the light blue dress. The styling is mad.

    You can check the other photos over at Fashiontography.

  • i.Sat and the Subtitles~

    I don’t watch as much i.Sat as I used to, but this is my favorite commercial I’ve seen from them.

    I’m so glad they have it on their YouTube account. xD

  • It’s the fourth one~~~

    It’s around that time of the year again — a few days, give or take — it’s been 4 years since I’ve been in Yu Aoi’s fandom! Admittedly, less diligently than before… but surprisingly, still going at it.

    You know FOUR is my bad luck number. Bad things happen with that number, so I’m extra crossing my fingers this year. In the meantime… here’s Yu-chan! Being Yu-chan! With some pastries~~~

  • From the Vault: Super Young Miki Nakatani

    While searching for photos of Miki Nakatani, I ran into this picture of her as a kid — she can’t be topping 15 years old in here. She looks like she’s between 12 or 14. Because, MY GAWD. She looks different but not different, you know? This is the first EVER time I’ve seen her like this.

  • Sholly – The Scientist

    I’m aware this is not Coldplay, but I’m taking the liberty to tag it with it. LOL, it’s a cover of The Scientist [MV] — you know the one video where everything is backwards and cool — by Johnette Napolitano & Danny Lohner. I don’t particularly find the cover anything amazing, but the Sholly shippy video (which I haven’t been looking at for a while on YouTube) is  pretty good~ one of the really few ones for Sholly.

    Aww, remember when I was crazy for Sholly? LOL

    I really like that the creator really took the concept of the video and applied it to the whole concept of her shippy vid, flashbacks and all. It’s a really good way to use all of the Shane/Molly clips on the show… though I wished the video wasn’t sped up backwards. I wouldn’t have minded some slow-mo shots xD

  • Wannabe Distributor: Love Is Not Blind

    I decided to create another feature in here~ The Wannabe Distributor feature!!! Combining my love for film and design, I’m gonna pick films as if I could afford the rights to distribute them, and imagining I really am going to be showing these films at a theater near me, I’m going to pick suitable titles and “create” a campaign to promote it. LOL

    My first pick! China’s little movie that could, Love Is Not Blind (失恋33天).
