Yu Aoi for Tadaima Iwaki~

I’ve mentioned this before [1], Hula Girls was shot in Iwaki prefecture, so when the tsunami and eventual nuclear meltdown affected the zone, the Hula Girls team as well as the dancers lent their support and/or donated money. Now, Yu-chan is lending her time (maybe there’s money too, though I’d like to think this is from the bottom of her heart) to jump-start visits to Iwaki with the campaign Tadaima Iwaki (ただいま! いわき).

It doesn’t matter, I’d watch 1hr. of Yu eating savory things and visiting places if they’d made a movie about it. LOL As naturally charming as ever~ I’ll watch this 30-sec clip instead.

Welcome Back, Nic~

I think it’s been a long time since people saw Nicole Kidman being so damn cute, funny and… I suppose, relaxed. In some strange parallel universe, there is a Nicole Kidman that has been giggling for the past ten years with her alternate universe relationship to Jimmy Fallon.

If you didn’t like her, Fallon made you like Kidman. If you don’t like him, she made you like him.

Faces: Juliette Binoche by Warwick Saint

Even when she’s making faces, Juliette Binoche is perfect.

Yu-chan for 8740 DIARY 2011-2014

Yu Aoi has a brand new book release simply titled 8740 DIARY 2011-2014, which is (from whatI was able to get) a collection of text and photos gathered between those years from different directors, screenwriters and co-stars. I am pretty sure there were texts from Shunji Iwai, Yuki Tanada and photographer Yoko Takahashi among many others.

The book is fairly priced… and the yen is down, so I think I might get it. We’ll see. In the meantime, Yu’s been promoting it with this cute little video for MORE Magazine, as well as the customary press event.

You can get the book on HMV Japan, which is my usual choice for Japanese items, even though YesAsia also delivers (but I find it extra pricey for them).

Monday Blues, How About You!

I finally get the LOEN 1theK thing re-brand. WON-DAH-K, Wonder K? Right? Too slow? Didn’t care much maybe? ANYWAY~

SunnyHill released the first part of their Sunny Blues album (which is pretty good), and have just released one of them videos where they teach how to dance for Monday Blues, but they never seem to time that release to an ACTUAL Monday. But still~~~ SeungAh is being ridiculously over-the-top Aegyo cute. I can’t seem to resist it.

How can this be dork, cute and sexy all at the same time?

Why Can’t We Have More of This: Yu Aoi + Kim Soo Hyun

I didn’t realize this was THIS old, but why isn’t anything else happening with this much perfection together? Seriously. Nearly three years after the launch of Madfory magazine in October 2011. Three freaking years!

You know you want it- another quirky romantic dramedy by Park Chan-wook starring these two.

From the Vault: Rani and Tabu

Two of my faves… in an almost optical illusion snap with Yash Chopra, no? I remember I ran into this picture when I read someone freaking out at Sonam Kapoor’s feet size. Then someone mentioned Sonam is really tall and mentioned other tall people in Bollywood, that’s when I googled Tabu’s name + giant xD and ran into this:

yash-chopra-rani-mukerji-tabu

My first thought? “She IS a giant! She must be like six feet tall~” Then I remembered Rani is short, and all was well.

This is how me and my friend must look like to other people. I even have the freshness to wear sneakers and flats all the time, my tininess had never bothered me for some reason, as I’ve always been one of the smallest kids in a class.

Tabu Looking Fly~

When I was prepping my bias list [1], I noticed that sometimes I preferred my biases in snapshots over proper photoshoots, especially because I was actually looking for photos in color over black and white. Tabu was one of them. I have this image of her being all intense and such, but from interviews she really comes off (and tries hard) to appear super laid-back and cute.

In event photos she kinda shows up with arms crossed, but lately I’ve seen some pics of her laughing and having a good time. In this snap for the screening of Filmistaan, she looks super at ease. And she has a smartphone (looks like an iPhone) with a simple pink case! Can’t get any more girly than that really. LOL

I saw the Filmistaan trailer a while back, and it looked funny. Vidya and her husband were there for the screening (considering it’s UTV) it’s not biggie. Tabu’s there probably because Haider is produced and distributed by UTV too, and Nimrat Kaur (who looked fly as well) was in The Lunchbox which is also produced by it. Of course, the both of them could’ve shown up because they wanted to watch it.

A la Française by Supinfocom Arles 2012

It’s been a while since I posted an animated short… especially from a French animation school, and chickens set in 1700 Versailles seemed like a no-brainer. It’s super cute and funny. Duh! It’s chickens! In Versailles! LOL

JeA, You’re Killing Me~~~

Oh, heck yes, I’m GOING~

THEY ALL COME TO ME. First, Bjork, then the BackStreet Boys, Miyavi and (bonus for) Big Bang. Now it’s JeA’s turn. Maybe you don’t know, JeA is my BEG bias.

After much deliberation with a friend, we decided to crash the Lunafly concert for JeA, just to get a glimpse of her.
