Japanese Movie Stars in Hawaii
Well recently we had another famous Japanese celebrity come to the office. The funny thing is I never know they are famous until one of my Japanese staff tell me. We are so close to Japan and the yen is doing so well right now that I think they come for the cost, its nice to think they come for me but who knows. Three years ago I had the Japanese equivalent to the younger Lenardo Dicaprio come to my office. He arrived with his posse and entourage. The feeling since I had no idea who he was simply neutral for me. Yet for the three Japanese staff members I had at the time was similar to watching Elvis Presley show up in the 1960’s (By the way I met Elvis many years ago when I was working as a teenager as a waiter.) The Japanese movies star was full of energy and his group were bouncing around like ping pong balls in the office. They were all happy, in Hawaii as many Japanese are here. Unfortunately I cannot tell you who he was even if I could recall his name for confidentiality reasons. Most of my english readers will not have heard of him anyway as I did not.

I sometimes think also Hawaii is for the Japanese “has beens” and the ones who “escape” Japan. One of my patients was extremely famous when she was 16-20 now she is here at the age of 42 still a star in many ways, but fading beauty and a sad life to some degree. I have know her for a while, she showed me all her old recordings of her work as a youngster. It was easy to see the cult that was created around her group of girl singers. She I think did not know anything about how she became famous except for some powerful types liked her. This you see in Holywood all the time and is especially noted in Japan where most thing are so controlled. Her Girl Group was created , she was a disposable member of the group like many of the boy bands you may be more familiar with such as Menudo and others. There members lose their youthful appeal and they are gone. This happen to her as well, ok talent but once the market of youth in Japan says “old” they are gone. Such is life of disposable movie starlets. At any rate she is doing fine now happy with a dog and daughter away from Japan.
About a month ago
My friend who is a cosmetic surgeon in Tokyo Ginza District was here , I could not pick him up at the airport. One of the reasons I could not was that he did not tell me he was coming. So it goes. Well he called and told me to meet him at Ala Moana mall at a certain time. So I did and up comes a the person who picked him up at the airport, ah guess what. She was a Japanese movie star. Seems they are every where.
