Does Yamapi have an Instagram?

There’s not much news about Yamapi lately, so this piece of gossip is certainly juicy.

After Yamashita Tomohisa aka Yamapi‘s “cellphone-theft” incident October of last year where he was rumored to have been placed in a period of penitence, well, he’s back with his partying ways. Rumor has it that he opened a private instagram account (@ystm9). The said account now looks inactive, which was discovered after model and great-grandchild of Ernest Hemingway, Dree Hemingway, posted a photo of her and Yamapi in her instagram (@dreelouise) where she tag Yamapi’s account. It’s not just Yamapi’s photo with Dree Hemingway that caused ripples among fans, but Yamapi also has photos with other foreign models. Aside from agency-controlled Jweb, other social networking sites in Johnny’s is a definite no-no.

Anyway, Yamapi’s fans are reportedly disappointed that Yamapi “never learned” from his mistakes. Yamapi’s activities have dwindled after his “cellphone-theft” case that ended with an out of court settlement. Even though he still went on with his radio program (Cross Space) and TV show (Otona no KISS Eigo), he wasn’t really that active. The last event he attended was on Dec 20th when he had a Christmas party with 200 of his fans who won the lottery from his “YOU” album.

Despite Yamapi’s absence from TV lately, rumor has it that he’s next project is already in the works with a TBS drama set to air this April. Yamapi was seen filming with Masataka Kubota, Maeda Goki, etc. at Tokyo. Johnny’s Jr. Yasui Kentaro is also rumored to join him for this drama.

Well, let’s wait and see if this drama rumor is true!

There’s nothing really scandalous at the picture, they might have met in a party and SNAP! No big deal. Some fans are just jealous. XD. Yamapi has been a party boy for as long as I can remember, that’s how he, Jin, and Ryo bond and there’s nothing really wrong with that. This article makes it seem like Yamapi should avoid partying after that case, which I think is wrong since he’s only human. If I didn’t know better, this piece is a promotion for his upcoming drama, assuming that the drama rumor at the end is true. Well, I definitely want it to be true!

Yamapi Plays a Mentally Retarted turned Genius in “Flowers for Algernon”

The rumors are true, Yamapi has a new drama!

Yamashita Tomohisa aka Yamapi has been announced to star in a TBS drama “Flowers for Algernon” (Algernon ni Hanataba wo) this April. The said drama is based from bestselling novel of US author Daniel Keyes about a man’s journey as he experience love, joy, loneliness, and distress after becoming a genius. Nojima Shinji (49,Platonic, Oniichan,Gacha) will take charge of the script for the Japanese version. Nojima has created a number of hit dramas and his unique “Nojima World” plus the modern version of “Flowers for Algernon” is a must-see.

Yamapi plays the role of Shiratori Sakuto, a mentally retarded 28 year old man with the mind of a 6 year old. After a successful experiment on a laboratory rat named Algernon, the same experiment and surgery was done to Shiratori that made him a genius. “I’ve never played this character and I want to surprise and shock everyone, in a good way,” Yamapi commented. Although, he says that he’s still trying to grasp his character, but he will work hard and not let himself be disconnected with this character until the end.

For his role, Yamapi visited a mentally disabled facility in Tokyo where he got to interact with its patients. “All people in the facilities were very pure; a 60 year-old grandma drew me a picture and she sparkles like a young girl.” He also watched movie adaptations of this classic novel, which includes: “Charly” (1968) and “Des fleurs pour Algernon ” (2000). Also, since he is studying English, he also read the original novel.

Flowers for Algernon” will air on TBS this April at 10:00 PM.

Not sure about Yamapi’s character name, I suck at kanji. XD Anyway, Yamapi and Aiba will be playing heavy roles for spring dramas and I hope that it won’t flop.

Bits & Pieces 34

Another Bits & Pieces! I seriously need to think about how to configure things out here. And I get the feeling that I might be doing a lot of this category. I just cannot filter out the articles, they all seem interesting to me… Anyways, it’s March now, April is right close, and that means Ohno & MatsuJun drama are close so I am very happy. Who else is happy about that?

Involced parties in this edition are: Ikuta Toma, SMAP‘s Katori Shingo, Arashi‘s Ohno Satoshi, Sakurai Sho‘s TV Show, Yamashita Tomohisa, Hey! Say! Jump‘s Inoo Kei.

  • The OST song for “Himitsu: THE TOP SECRET” has been announced, and they will be using “Alive” by Australian singer, Sia. [The previous article about the movie]. I personally cannot wait to see it, I loved the manga and the anime wasn’t that bad either. via jnews1
  • Speaking of movies,”Terra Formars” starring Yamashita Tomohisa‘s trailer has been released. Previous article here.

The CG actually doesn’t look all that bad, and Yamapi looks really good! The movie will be out on April 29th 2016. via jnews1

  • Hey! Say! Jump‘s Inoo Kei will become a regular cast on Fuji TV’s “Mezamashi Terebi“, on Thursdays. via jnews1
  • Sakurai Ariyoshi Abunai Yakai” will be changed into”Sakurai Ariyoshi The Yakai“. The official statement from TBS states that they wanted to emphasize the “dangerous” side of the show. I wonder if anything else will change in terms of the show… via jnews1
  • SMAP’s Katori Shingo will be starring in a TV Asahi Drama Special, which will be broadcasted on March 27th. The suspense drama will be based on the manga, “The Poe Family” or “Poe no Ichizoku”, and Nakajo Ayami will be playing the female main character. This drama will be the first time Katori will be starring in a TV Asahi drama. via jnews1
  • Ohno Satoshi will be joined by one of his kouhai in his drama, “Sekai Ichi Muzukashii Koi”. On the 5th of March (which is tomorrow, but I wrote this a week ago… #strugglingtofindagoodpacehere #forgiveme), they will be announcing the junior who will be acting along Ohno in the drama. The chart of the drama on the official website has also been updated, and we can already see that “Miura Ieyasu” is Haru’s kouhai and his identity will be revealed later on “Arashi ni Shiyagare”.

Some fans speculates Johnny’s West‘s Nozomu Kotaki since his Johnny’s Net profil picture matches the cut out of the broacast. I wish it would be Chinen Yuri, just cause. via jnews1

Here are the comments for Yamapi and Sakurai:

Yamashita Tomohisa: “Hes acting in movies, so I think he would be good at teaching.” “His English is good, I would want to be taught English by him. And he’s also handsome.” “I was watching ‘Kingyori Renai‘, and I thought, if the sensei was actually like that, I would be working hard or something like that.”

Sakurai Sho: ” ’cause he went to Keio University, he seems like he would teach a lot of things.”, “He’s pretty smart, and he’s also a newscaster.”, “If Sakurai was teaching Mathematics, I think I would be able to listen and understand difficult words.”
