Breaking News

Quickly, who's your favorite Japanese Pop Star? Do I see a "blank" look on your face? that's right!Western music lovers can not possible associate modern pop music with a major Japanese famous artist,or a Japanese pop hit song that climbed the western world charts and that you can tap your feet to or be encouraged to dance.

And yet,the J-Pop,or Japanese Pop craze is what inspired the better known South Korean K-pop celebrities like Psy(Gangnam Style)probably the world's most popular K-Pop star and hit song today,and Kim Hyunathe former WonderGirls K-Pop idol.

part of the lack of knowledge of J-Pop lies in the fact that Japanese record labels are not as ambitious as their Korean counterparts,and are happy with the local recordings sales and the unwillingness to learn English to make their stars known through out the western world.

J-Pop has its origins in the early 1990s,and were influence by Elvis,and the American pop stars of the 1960s. Most J-Pop bands today distinguish themselves from their South Korean rivals by playing more instruments,or dressing more conservatively and less flashy and sexy choreography than the Korean stars do.

Sports Celebrities News June 2021

Sport

Kate Upton,the 20 something super-sexy Sport Illustrated hot model keeps making the headlines in the tabloids.

Some Paparazzi caught her in "more-than-friends togetherness" with Detroit Tigers baseball team's pitcher Justin Verlander.

While Kate and Justin keep avoiding any public acknowledgement of their apparent romance,the "buzzing" among the Media continues,and sooner or later will be a public News update,just like Tiger Woods and Lindsey Vonn

I really wonder why celebrities keep this "not me" game with the Media and the public,but they only create controversy and silly public apologies after they have no other option,but to confess the already "same-old-thing" news.

They are public figures and don't need to hide like we common people to thwart wagging tongues.
