He is so cute in these CM, and I adore listening to him speaking french.
Aww he was so cute doing "Mow mow"
it's been a while since I haven't followed "his activity"
I watched The PV of "Ero" a few days ago and I remembered why I loved him so much some years ago.
I had forgotten he was so attracting XD
Route 66 was a lot of fun to watch. (Thank you again Elisabetta)
My favorite part about the whole thing (besides looking at 'Tomo' for 12 episodes) was watching him be real and himself. I know he had a camera crew with him so he wasn't truly alone, but watching him have all these little adventures and his impressions of America; meeting all those people. It was really cool. His reaction to the Grand Canyon was priceless...
So glad I watched this.
Elisabetta wrote: Okay, my Yamapi obsession is kicking in, so let's add something about his singer/idol career. I first knew him as an actor, so when I stumbled across his stage performance I was in deep state of shock, I couldn't watch it, he is just so different from his usual (acting) self. I hated it at first, but then I couldn't stop watching/listening to it. ( the same was this time, I watched Ending Planer and I decided to check up on his music career-at first I was, no! I don't like this, I won't listen to it, why he does it.... 2 days later - I can't stop listening to it and I love it).
Oh the things he do... Here is a really old, but very good video ( sexy I know, but he does have a shirt on, which is sort of buttoned up ;) ), think of him in Code Blue, think of Ending Planer, and then watch this - it's like two different people!
I'm curious: what you think about it?
I was a fan of his singing first. I listened to NEWS, and he was my favorite members. Then I got into his acting. :)

LOL, for me it was the opposite - I was a greenhorn drama addict, I've already watched some of his dramas, and was interested enough to check him out... And I've never heard J-pop before (any Asian pop actually) - knowing that imagine my shock ! :D
I was like: "Why they are wearing sequin suits with flowers on them?! And rub their faces all the time?!... I don't understand...."
For the record I still don't get the FaceArousalRounchyThrusting trend (EatYourKimchi's term) among Asian boy-bands, with only few exceptions. It usually seems so fake.
But Yamapi is the only guy on Earth that can rock pink sequin suit, and still be totally awesome. Hadakanbo! I really love this song...

And what's that about him being in a horror movie or something? Or was that a variety show? Just something I read and didn't know.. ._.
Not that I'm going to watch it anyway, I'm way too easily scared. ^^

Ahh thanks. Don't know if I'll watch it though. I can take even less horror than children.. :O

Just watched i(well,Yamapi's part), it's actually like ghost stories around the fire-MINOR SPOILER : somebody saw something, but nothing really happen END OF SPOILER And it seems like it was aimed at younger viewers ( they show some children afterwards). But hell I watched it between one call and another and it still felt creepy.
