Off-topic rambling

The ATV stream is back! Woo-hoo! You don’t know what you have until it’s gone, and all that.

Just in time, cos I was going astray, visiting all kinds of English websites and reading about Japanese celebrities. They’re all so coy. They won’t even admit to the plastic surgery and dental work many of them (Namie, Gackt, Amuro, etc) have obviously had. Come on, don’t be so shy. We know you did it! Actually I believe stars are entitled to their privacy just like the rest of us, and that their obligation to the fans stops right at entertaining us. But as a fan, I can’t help it. I loooove celeb gossip!

Just now I dug up some dirt about B’z vocals Koshi Inaba. He’s one of the most intensely private Japanese stars out there, and the only thing he’ll cop to is having parents, a brother and some dogs. Now I can finally put the doubts to rest: he’s married and has at least one kid as of 2002! Bob Marley had these lyrics: “Only your friend / Know your secret / So only he / Can reveal it”! Yup, it was someone on one of his tours who spilled the beans: American bassist Billy Sheehan, via his official website. Source: http://www.billysheehan.com/photos/photos_bz06.html

More of these, Billy. Go on more tours and reveal more information oh so casually on your site! Next up, Tak Matsumoto. He’s 50 and apparently…single? Not that there’s anything wrong with that…
