The Green Hornet Movie

Usagi Hoshino — Thu, 20 Jan 2011 23:51:17 +0000

Little I knew about the Green Hornet Movie until I saw the trailer and was awestruck when Kato showed up. I had no idea Jay Chou was playing Kato. Jay Chou is a Taiwanese pop star, and in fact I posted some of his music before. For the looks of it he’s acting is way better than Bi Rain‘s. Which is a relief. I like Bi rain’s dancing skills but acting not so much.

I found this interview “Jay Chou: The Green Hornet’s Kato in his own words“, and found it quite interesting. I’m so happy entertainment boundaries are getting blurred. A good artist-performer-singer will still be that regardless of the language they speak or the country or hemisphere they were born in. It was about time Hollywood realized that. If only music labels would also do the same.

I can’t wait to see Jay Chou on the big screen, I hope the movie delivers~!

Luna Sea Live @ Hollywood Palladium

So I wasn’t able to go to last’s night Luna Sea‘s live in L.A.. TOT But my friend went with my tickets and got me the VIP goods I wanted so badly!

I’m SO grateful *O*~!

The VIP Goods package included:

1 autographed tour book (*O*!)

2 wristbands

1 Tote Bag

1 T-shirt

1 Letter from the band

I’m sad I couldn’t go but I hope this is just the beginning and they play again in the States or even in South America! I’ve loved Luna Sea since I was 12 years old TOT. So I will wait until the day I see them live ^_^. For now I get to see this video from a fan. Can’t wait for the 3D movie they will do with the L.A concert! Makes me wanna go to Japan just to see it. It would be amazing! (luckily there will me more things and places to go in Japan around that time.. going just for the movie would be lame.)

Vamps World Tour is over!

I had so much fun at the shows and it ended the best way it could end for me. In South America and surrounded by friends! ^_^.

Now all we have left are goods~! Specially from the Vamps official store

Vamps Arena Pamphlet 2010

Arena Pamphlet = 3,500 円 T^T!

I want more stuff but is way too expensive (4 US shows and 1 South American show have taken its toll xD) so I may settle with the pamphlet TOT.

On a blog note, new layout~ Thanks J-kun ^_^!

Vamps – Devil Side Lyrics

Usagi Hoshino — Wed, 14 Apr 2010 20:37:22 +0000

Thanks to Vamps French Street Team we have the official lyrics of Vamps upcoming single “Devil Side“

DEVIL SIDE – VAMPS

Shake shake shake on the floor
Take take take take me lower
Loud loud loud beating rhythm
Hush Hush Hush keep it secret

Reckless without reason
Defenseless dive on the floor
Baby ready set fly away

I’m in a trance with you – Forget
Embrace our instinct
I want to see your other face
Kissing your lips
Calling for your devil side

Come come come on you’re thirsty
Shame Shame Shame don’t be so shy
(Right or wrong who decided ?)
Talk talk talk monsters talking

Reckless without reason
Defenseless dive on the floor
Baby ready set fly away

I’m in a trance with you – Forget
Embrace our instinct
I want to see your other face
Kissing your lips
Calling for your devil side

Baby fly away from this world

I’m in a trance with you – Forget
Embrace our instinct
I want to see your other face
Kissing your lips
Calling for your devil side
