When I first saw this pic on Sanspo I thought the guy looked a lot like Takitty o_o;
I just found out that there indeed WILL be a drama series version of "Taiyou no Uta" airing on TV in Japan this summer. I believe in July. "Taiyou no Uta" is being described by the Japanese media as the final chapter in the "Pure Love Trilogy" (the first two are "Sekachuu" and "Ima, ai ni yukimasu". That's awesome, cuz both those films are some of my all-time favorite movies!! And, both of those films were turned into successful drama series as well.
Although, the drama series version will NOT be featuring YUI nor Takashi Tsukamoto in their character roles...
BUT, the cast is very interesting though! Replacing YUI for the drama will be Erika Sawajiri and replacing Takashi Tsukamoto will be Takayuki Yamada. As many of you know, Erika starred in the very popular "Ichi Rittoru no Namida" (where she also had a terrible ill-fated disease) and Takayuki starred in the "Sekachuu" drama series and in the movie version of "Densha Otoko". Of course, both actors are known in other films/dramas too.
sorry guys (especially Masa :D)

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I MISSED THE DOWNLOAD!!!!!
can someone reupload?????????????????????????????????????????
m(_ _)m
:O she's gonna perform the song live?
Swajiri Erika AKA "Kaoru Amane" is breaking records. Her song "TAIYOU no uta" had 500,000 downloads (chaku-uta) and earned 100 million yen before the CD even came out. This is supposedly the highest record for a single song downloaded before the CD is released. (They make it sound like TAIYOU no uta alone sold that much...but it seems like the number is combined with the c/w "Stay with me"...as stated later on on the article. In any case, it's supposedly record-breaking.)Holy shit! :shocked: :shocked: :shocked:
They're also shipping out over 150,000 copies of the CD, a very rare case for a new artist. Including an addition 50,000 ordering, it is confirmed that the first week will reach 200,000 copies in sales (OK I'm slightly confused by how they calculated this but...).

thnq very much yggg XD
EDIT: i dont know how to navigate the site.. i cant read jap sorry.. :(
BTW, I tried playing Stay with me on guitar but it sounds completely different when I play it. I'm guessing there needs to be a capo on the second fret or something, can't really test that out since I don't have a capo.
actually its written on the score that the tuning should be 1/2 step down. So u have to tune down all ur guitar strings by 1 semitone to be able to play as the score says.
Or alternately shift each chord down by 1 semitone on a normally tuned guitar =>
C-> B
F-> E
G-> F#
Am -> G#m
Or with a capo, capo at 2nd fret and play each chord 3 semitones lower=>
C-> A
F-> D
G-> E
Am -> F#m

Thanks for the link
after reading the PB
the thing that wonders me most is Satoh Megumi appears in the last few shot
they are real friends from long ago
I remember seeing a vid with the two of them as gravure idols shot a few years back. They also seemed pretty close when they were on a variety show last year.
I said last year, but it was actually from this summer... XD man it felt so long ago. I think it's cause this semester of school went by so damn slow.
If only she could sing she could take the world by storm.
I listened to the Taiyo no Uta song, and her voice sounds REALLY REALLY digitally enhanced. Like, even compared to a Berryz single.
eheheh just post for a ReSeed in that Tegami Thread, no need to go expanding to this thread... And I'd help if i kept the file after I hardsubbed it but I didn't... So sorry, but just my tip is yeah if you are requesting a ReSeed do it in the appropriate thread and not in the thread of the Actress.
This is the only variety show that I've watched with Erika & Megumi together
Tokyo Friend Park of this year

She has made some I don't remember the name of where she is a bully at school
D. Sex --- You MUST be MALE to vote for her !!
^ just make up a fake male name
Call me slow, but I didn't know she was half French until last week. :D
Oh yeah, this might piss a few people off, but she was also voted "The Biggest Bitch" is showbiz the other month.
i find that really hard to believe, how can someone like Erika be a bitch? IMPOSSIBLE!It's because of when she does interviews, she often says things like "I've answered that question before for a different magazine...Go ask them what I said".
Call me slow, but I didn't know she was half French until last week. :D

enjoy XD
Same here...haha and then I told my mom and she was like WHOA :ONdunno: :ONkekeke:
But I would'nt even expected her to even be known as a bitch, That shocks me but hey. As said looks can be deceiving.
It's because of when she does interviews, she often says things like "I've answered that question before for a different magazine...Go ask them what I said".
Also, when she split with her boyfriend, she cried for something like exactly 30mins or an hour on the dot, then stopped and said she was leaving. He asked if she was alright, because she was upset, and her answer was "I'm fine..I'm an actress, and can cry on cue".
Kinda funny, but definitely a bitch all the same.
I don't know if it's her looks that make her not seem like a bitch, but more that the characters she always plays are so sweet and innocent. Her look and style outside of her acting roles I think matches her attitude.

Erika Sawajiri to start singing career as ERIKA?
A mysterious new singer named ERIKA is set to release her first single, titled "FREE," on July 4. So far, all signs seem to indicate that the singer is actually actress Erika Sawajiri, who made her singing debut last year under the name of Kaoru Amane.
The singer and Sawajiri share the same name and the same birthdate (July 4, 1986). Pictures of the new artist on her official site look just like Sawajiri, and even her voice is said to be the same. The only discrepancy seems to be that ERIKA supposedly was born in a Paris suburb.
It is also said that ERIKA has been playing the guitar for almost her whole life. For her debut, she is sporting a specially-made Fender Telecaster with a surface bearing a design she created.
MTV Japan has scheduled a special program in early July in which ERIKA will make a guest appearance. The show will feature a special discussion between her and the host, who happens to be Sawajiri.
Thing I found disturbing was the White Substance that 'squirts' across the screen... The few scenes of it is whatever... Then there is one with her mouth open =X then after that there is some on her hand... Lol.. if you turn on your Dirty Mind... woah..'A dirty mind is a joy forever' my old english teacher always said.
I WANNA DRINK OUT THE SAME BOTTLE NOW, lol
Thanks masa.

GJ Masa! HOLY FUCKIN MOTHERLOAD OF ERIKA GOODIES!! :shocked:
Message from Basement Jaxx? How'd they find about her?
you'd be surprised how many people who you wouldn't think know anything about gravure or idols or the like actually do (maybe not to the extent that we do but still)...i'm sure the basement jaxx can appreciate Erika's beauty as much as we do (and since she's making music now then there's even more of a reason for them to know about her)Erika seems to be a Basement Jaxx fan since their song is the opening song of REAL ERIKA. So I guess the producer(s) of the show hollered at the band and got a surprise message for Erika.
@frblckstr1: Much appreciated for providing SS's and bleh guess I'll have to wait and see if a DVD comes out, sort of hate logo's ><I think you can easely crop the top and bottom, I scanned thru it but haven't seen it bleed into the video itself.
PS: her FREE PV I guess I'll release it via JPS in a few minutes.
^ FYI: Those .wmv's have copy protection in themMy bad, I had no idea :banghead:
I will be so looking forward to this Photobook~!!! :mon thumb:

I thought it was just a rumour that Erika is bitchy, but this vid is uh... Pretty bad :O
http://youtube.com/watch?v=S2BzVu6Vu3M
I'm just curious to hear everyone's comments XD
I thought it was just a whole show set up by her PR to show how good her acting is.
You know they do such stuff in Japan to invoke tears ^)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=94Lz6bYQbNQIt does look like some kind of explanation...
her apology and "crying" its pretty long but yea. its stupid
Clip 1
Host: How do you feel that you had grow in these 5 years
Erika: I felt that the process of it was too fast
Host: About being appraise by others
Erika: About this, I guess there`s nothing that I should be happy bout
Host: Don`t you feel happy for what you had achive
Erika: Nope,I won`t felt happy because of this as if it's purely base on performance because it`s not as if I will stop being a actress now so there`s nothing to judge on
Host: About Acting, Erika still had a long way to go right?
Erika: Yes, This is what I think, for example when I reach 30 or 40 years old, when I finally complete my performance and I still can get good apprasal by others, that will be a very wonderful thing
-----------------------------------------------------------
Host: There's people who are close to you, what did they said ?
Erika:What did they said ?
Host: Like "Simple" ?
Erika: Yes, Simple
(Sorry I`m not so sure of this...)
------------------------------------------------------------
(Actually this interview should take place on last Saturday after the PR event, but due to Erika body condition wasn`t so good on that day, Erika was unable to attend the interview. The host left a message on monday program which is "Owe me a thing")
Host: I was surpize that you come and fulfill the promise(Interview) so quickly
Erika:What did you said during the program?
Host: haaa, You still owe me a thing, hope you don`t mind
Erika: Now, I here to fulfill what I had owe you
Host: Did anything happen which affect your feeling before Erika attended the Closed Note PR event ?
Erika: What happen ? There`s a reason but I brought my own personal feeling and stuff into the event, I apologise to everyone for this matter.
Clip 2
Host: About what Erika had said that "There`s nothing in the movie that left a special impression in you" actually that isn`t the case right?
Erika: Of course, it isn`t the case
Host: Are you dissappointed with your performance on that day
Erika: Yes there`s a reason for that
Host: Can the reason be told to us?
Erika: I felt that was not the important part, I brought my personal feelings and stuff up the stage. As an actress, I shouldn't have let this happen at all
(About the apology Letter)
Host:Did you wrote the apology letter at home
Erika:Yes
Host:Alone?
Erika:Yes
Host: Looking back at the letter, there`s something shocking which is "All the faults lies on me", I guess this rarely happen right, to admit all the wrong on yourself (Surrended)
Erika:Yes, normally I won`t said these
Host:What kind of feeling and thought you had in your mind when you wrote this letter ?
Erika:This kind of feeling
Host: To admit to every fault?
Erika: Yes
Host: There shouldn`t be only you in the wrong
Erika: No, this is what I feel
Host: Really 100% ?
Erika: Yes
Erika: About this matter, although I really regret what I had done but to the eyes and view of my fans, I felt that I`m the worst
Host: Are you dissappointed ?
Erika: I really believe, to me, as a professional, this is something that shouldn`t had happen
Host:About taking up all the responsibility to is through your acting and performance right?
Erika: Yes, I hope to apologise to everyone, I`m sorry
Clip 3
(About namie amuro)
Erika:Yes, I want to meet her, althought it`s strange for me to said this, when i was younger, at that moment of time, I join the entertainment industry just to try out, but as time goes by, my view had changed and I want to become a talented actress as my goal
Host:Will you practice alone?
Erika:I never really practice
Host:never practice?
Erika:never
Host:but won`t you forget the words?
Erika:I have it all in my mind after I finish reading it but acting is not just about dialogue
(Bout the new SE cm)
Host:Other than a actress, what other job do you wish to work
Erika:There`s many
Host:many, for example?
Erika:Like working as a waitress in a restaurant which I like
Host:Not bad, I wish to be a Landscape teacher
Host:When face with problem,will you use a tougher way to solve it
Erika:I will go straight into it
Host:I see, like a guy
(The interview had lasted 2hrs and now is the start of the last question)
Host:Now to your fans and others who are related, do you have anything to said to them?Just said what your heart feels.
It must be tough to said it out
if there`s anything you want to said .Can you said it today?
Erika:How do I said...
Host:Nothing? if there`s nothing, it`s ok as well.
(Silence for 10 min and then...)
Host:Do you really want to go straight into it, throught today's interview , I know that Erika is serious in your acting career .
I really know it.
Other than this, you also admitted your fault
Erika:That day..
That.. myself...
Because of my action, I destroy everything
I created alot of problems to others
I feel that i`m not mature enough
As a Actress, I should be more professional
I betrayed them
I`m really sorry
Clip 4
Host:About movie
there`s alot of things to consider bout
Other than all the crew member, there`s one important thing
Which is the lead
For example, they are the captains of the ships
They should led the others
at many areas
So at the stage the one who should give thanks to others should be...
Of course, the ones getting all the shock and impact is not only Erika
Erika:Really, regarding my betrayal to others, I felt really sorry,but......
Host:I know, I really know
don`t worry
Because Erika is a experience actress
You won`t do this without a reason
Although even I myself is in tears but there`s no way to repair it
The only way is
Work towards the furtue
Give your fullest in what you do
I will cheer for you, really
Thanks for letting me hear what you feel
Not just as Erika Sawajiri but as a female
I hope this matter will end soon
Although We had spoken so much, there are many places that we can`t see it from our (Outsider) view
Although I don`t know what suffering did you encounter
But I Hope that you will give your best
Erika:Thanks
Clip 5
There`s no translation for this clip, but there's a part where a Shiraishi Masumi said:
Maybe "Erika-Sama" is just a image that others want her to act as, maybe Erika herself is trouble by this as well.
From the clip just now, Erika is just same as other normal lady

The Japanese actress, model and singer, Erika Sawajiri (沢尻エリカ), and the media creator and producer, Takashiro Tsuyoshi (高城剛), are going to get married at a shrine in Tokyo, in the middle of January. Yesterday Dec 29, Erika and her mom went to visit the graves of her father and brother, and officially told the press about her marriage.
Sawajiri gives more detailshttp://www.tokyograph.com/news/id-4232
On Wednesday, Erika Sawajiri discussed more details about her marriage with the press in front of her family's home. She said that the wedding ceremony will be held at Meiji Shrine on January 19, while the reception party will take place in Hawaii sometime after that.
Sawajiri said that Takashiro proposed to her on August 1 in the mountains of the Altai Republic (part of Russia), where they visited to view the total solar eclipse. She also showed off the engagement ring that Takashiro recently gave her, which was designed by Takashiro himself.
It is rumored that Sawajiri and Takashiro will register their marriage on New Year's Day, but the actress said they have not yet decided on a date. She further revealed that she plans to study as a graphic designer in Spain, and will resume acting work in Japan this summer.
Stardust seeks to sack Sawajiri?http://www.tokyograph.com/news/id-5298 (http://www.tokyograph.com/news/id-5298)
Sat, September 26, 2009 (7:34am EDT)
Management agency Stardust Promotion is reportedly considering the dismissal of actress Erika Sawajiri (23) for breach of contract. Sawajiri's conduct has long caused headaches for the company, and it seems that they have decided to finally put an end to it. Sources say that Stardust began talks of canceling Sawajiri's contract earlier this month. The actress still has some time remaining on her contract, and she is said to be cast in a major movie project. However, the agency has apparently determined that she is guilty of a serious breach of contract, and they do not plan to wait until the contract's expiration. When asked about the story, Stardust replied with "no comment."
Sawajiri has long had a reputation of a difficult personality, earning her the nickname of "Erika-sama." In 2007, she was heavily criticized by the media for her unprofessional attitude during a PR event for the movie "Closed Note." Around the same time, she was also discovered to be in a relationship with multimedia creator Tsuyoshi Takashiro (45), whom she married this past January. Despite her career being mostly quiet since the "Closed Note" incident, Sawajiri has been in the newspapers several times. One recent incident happened in July, when she visited Amami Oshima for the solar eclipse. While there, she was filmed operating a motorized bicycle, and it was later noticed that the bicycle was not properly registered, as it should have been.
Sawajiri also caused trouble for Stardust in February, when she visited New York and participated in the promotion of a popular fashion brand without going through her agency. In addition, rumors have surfaced that Sawajiri frequently used drugs while in Europe with Takashiro. In particular, they are said to have often attended drug parties in Ibiza. There are further reports that while they were at Amami Oshima, they went to an event that Noriko Sakai and Yuichi Takaso also attended. Although Sawajiri's dismissal is not official yet, it appears likely to happen. This would have a significant effect on her career, though she may be able to continue independently.
Sawajiri Erika back in businesshttp://www.kawaii-joyuu.com/?p=5514 (http://www.kawaii-joyuu.com/?p=5514)
Today it was announced that actress Sawajiri Erika finally resumed her work and her first new project will be a commercial for a beauty company.
Her agent in Japan made the announcement to the media a few hours ago. "She created her personal office in Spain and hired agents in several countries. Our goal is to increase her activities gradually." Her new official website is going to start at 5pm on March 16 as well.
This announcement confirms that Erika really was building up new connections when she and her husband returned to Japan at the end of last year. The result of her new connections will be a new commercial for a beauty company that will start airing later this month. It will be a commercial for "Takano Yuri Beauty Clinic" as mentioned in earlier rumors. With this she is going to follow the footsteps of fellow actress Yonekura Ryoko and singer Gackt who used to be two of their recent image characters.
Their commercials are known for showing a lot of skin in an aesthetic way and it won't be any different for Erika. It's said that they used some interesting CG to create a new and original commercial.
A new photo book is planned for a release in April as well. It was shot by a British cameraman and close friend of Takashiro, but it will not contain any kind of nude photographs unlike claimed in other rumors. It will be a purely artistic collection of photographs and a must-have for all fans left.
Her future as an actress isn't looking that bad either. She received a lot of offers in and outside of Japan and currently has 4-5 scripts that she might be interested in. Erika now also has an agent in Los Angeles who is going to select some promising roles for her in the American market. The most interesting fact still is that she's doing all that on her own. With her own office in Spain, she is going to completely produce her herself from now on.
However, fans in Japan might be a bit sad, since she will stay in Madrid most of the time now. Agents in several countries will collect all offers for her and she will only have to chose her personal favorite at her office without having to travel the world to get her the roles.
It's a fresh and fascinating new beginning for Erika. Time will tell whether she learned from her past mistakes and how successful she is really going to be with her own office, but we will definitely hear a lot more from her again.
Erika-sama Headed For Divorce?http://www.japan-zone.com/news/2010/04/26/erikasama_headed_for_divorce.shtml (http://www.japan-zone.com/news/2010/04/26/erikasama_headed_for_divorce.shtml)

Sawajiri Erika (24, photo left) is rumored to be on the verge of divorce, it was reported yesterday. Last night's edition of the Fuji TV show "Mr. Sunday" carried the story as its top news. A reporter confronted Sawajiri outside her Tokyo home yesterday evening and asked about the rumor, to which she replied only, "Sorry, I can't say anything now. Try again in a few days."
The actress has been married to hypermedia creator Takashiro Tsuyoshi (45, photo right) for only a year and three months, and she has barely worked in showbiz since the infamous "Betsuni" incident in September 2007. She was formally dumped by her management agency last September, but in March she announced that she had opened a management office in Spain and signed a commercial contract with the Takano Yuri beauty clinic chain. She appeared with Takano at a PR event on March 16, and set media tongues wagging yet again with a 6-point privacy agreement that any reporter had to sign before she would speak with them.
Sawajiri and Takashiro are said to be separated and she is staying with her mother. Yesterday's Fuji TV show speculated that the couple have been having money problems. A source told the Sankei Sports newspaper, "Takashiro has provided almost no financial support to his wife for her showbiz or personal expenses. Since she spent time studying in the U.K. and Spain, she has been stuck for money." Another source said that while Takashiro is intent on basing himself overseas, his wife wants to take advantage of the many movie and recording offers that she has received in Japan.
Sawajiri Erika Confirms Divorce Rumorhttp://www.japan-zone.com/news/2010/04/28/sawajiri_erika_confirms_divorce_rumor.shtml (http://www.japan-zone.com/news/2010/04/28/sawajiri_erika_confirms_divorce_rumor.shtml)
Actress Sawajiri Erika has made her first formal statement regarding the recent rumors of her impending divorce. On her official website yesterday she wrote, "I wish to formally state that I, Sawajiri Erika, have determined to divorce my husband, Takashiro Tsuyoshi, and we are in talks under the auspices of my family." The member of her family is believed to be her elder brother, a former actor who now runs a restaurant in Tokyo. The Sankei Sports newspaper reports that a source close to the actress told them that she talked about divorce with her former management agency at least three times before she was dumped by them last September. Last month it was reported that she had set up a personal management company in Spain, but it now seems that was more to do with Takashiro's plans to base himself outside Japan. Sawajiri says that she has been taking vocal lessons and that after the divorce she will resume her acting and singing careers full-time under the Avex entertainment company.
For his part, Takashiro told Sankei Sports he does not want a divorce and has been trying unsuccessfully to meet and talk with his wife. There have been reports of his having debts and other financial problems.
Sawajiri Erika dating a French millionaire, Hollywood debut due this fall?http://www.erika-sawajiri.net/index.php?topic=1840.0 (http://www.erika-sawajiri.net/index.php?topic=1840.0)
Now it's official that Sawajiri Erika is going to divorce Takashiro, but there is yet another unconfirmed rumor that might explain the whole situation.
Several tabloids including "Yukan Fuji" and "Tokyo Sports" are reporting that Sawajiri is dating the son of a French millionaire. It was the famous reporter Nashimoto Masaru that discovered and published the story about her new wealthy support.
"It's rumored that there is a certain millionaire acting as Sawajiri Erika's contact person for her activities in Spain. That person is currently pushing forward her debut in Hollywood and sent her recent beauty clinic commercial to several officials in the industry. He is also advertising her huge popularity in Japan in order to get her a role," he revealed.
Other insiders also claim that it's actually the son of French millionaire who is supporting her and that he is more than just a business partner. They also say that he invested a lot of money into her office in Spain.
The Tokyo Sports also clearly states that she is indeed in a relationship with this wealthy young man. "He invested in her new agency and also works as the president, of course. It's also said that Takashiro actually knows this person, but it seems like he only thought of him as a business partner of his wife." This tabloid reports that the beauty clinic commercial will work as PR for her Hollywood debut as well. "It will happen sooner than expected. A Hollywood movie with Sawajiri Erika will probably already open this fall."
This doesn't mean that she will continue to ignore the Japanese market. There are still the news about her upcoming contract with the Japanese major label Avex that will include at least one new single and a new album within this year. Tokyo Sports actually claims that they are already about to start with the recordings.
Takashiro is said to have used 2-3 million USD to back her up with her career restart, but with the recent news his support might have only been a small stepping stone in her upcoming career. There are also rumors about him having debts now. Though I don't want to claim that money was one of the reasons for the divorce.
One thing is for sure, it will never become boring again now that Sawajiri is back in the headlines.
Sawajiri Erika in happy mood despite divorcehttp://www.kawaii-joyuu.com/?p=6668 (http://www.kawaii-joyuu.com/?p=6668)
The divorce between actress Sawajiri Erika (24) and hypermedia creator Takashiro Tsuyoshi (45) is already official and there are already follow-up rumors regarding her alleged hot new and rich French lover, her upcoming contract with Avex and her Hollywood debut this fall.
Today Sawajiri made her first public appearance since the news about her divorce. It was the opening party for famed photographer Ninagawa Mika's (37) new photo exhibition. Sawajiri arrived with a black Mercedes and the first thing that appealed to the eyes of the present journalists were her beautiful legs. No wonder, after all she was wearing a very short white dress and even 10cm high heels to show off her legs even more. She didn't seem like a heartbroken woman at all, but the divorce was her initiative after all. Takashiro is said to have only found out about the divorce by the media. No, today she totally enjoyed the flurry of camera flashes and turned her arrival into a fashion show while never losing that very bright smile of hers.
Of course it was only the first time since her wedding that the journalists were able to spot her and take pictures of her without her wedding ring on her left ring finger. They've also tried to ask her about the divorce. "How are the divorce talks progressing? - Can you please say something to your worried fans? - Have you talked with Takashiro?" However, she remained completely silent during her 5 minutes in public. After 30 minutes she left the event and reporters tried to get a comment again, but all she said was hello.
At the exhibition there is a whole corner only with pictures of Sawajiri. Ninagawa also made the photos of her for the magazine called "SWAK" and a couple of other recent magazine spreads. In "SWAK" Sawajiri also exclusively talked about the divorce and thanks to her still strong popularity it's already sold out everywhere in Japan. The publisher commented that within 3 days after the release they've sold as many copies as they usually do within a whole month.

I just can't understand she tried to marry such a famous perv in Japanese showbiz. :thumbdown:

Some bad rumours
Everyone saw Sawajiri Erika's performance at the "GirlsAward2010" and the infamous outfit that was barely able to keep her butt from being completely exposed, but not everyone saw what was happening behind the scenes. Thank god we have tabloids like the "Shukan Bunshun" that are more than happy to give us some juicy Erika gossip.
So let's start with a comment from one of the Avex staff: "As a staff of Avex I'm ashamed to say it, but Sawajiri simply never underwent any voice training at all. At first there were plans for her to sing a different song, but then she suddenly decided to make an own song for the event. The song was such a rushed job that we couldn't possibly ask fans to pay something for this."
Of course that didn't affect her VIP treatment backstage. Out of all the performers at the event, she received the biggest dressing room and even more than 1 hour longer rehearsals. Unfortunately the longer rehearsal made the whole even more anxious than before. "At the rehearsal the day before the event, she had some problems with her voice and we had to interrupt the rehearsal for an hour. In the beginning of the rehearsal at the appointed day she was about to go on stage when Sasaki Nozomi and Kinoshita Yukina were still up and she suddenly made a scene "What's with them? They are a hindrance!"
The whole stage concept with the red flag, the black feathers and the very "original" dress was Sawajiri's idea as well. Her stylist actually prepared a different outfit for her, but Sawajiri said that it wasn't like what she imagined and ordered her to make a different outfit. "You know the red flag? She never told us from the staff anything about a flag! It was time for her performance and all of a sudden she was waving that huge red flag. People said that Avex president Matsuura Masato was completely dumbfounded when he saw the performance and left the hall before she even finished." A staff from the event revealed. So much about Matsuura's faith in Sawajiri.
You might think that the "misunderstandings" ended with the event, but unfortunately she continued to do unnecessary things at the after-show party. Another Avex staff summarized it for us, "She wasn't even drunk yet and already went all >FOOOH!< at Matsuura who came to greet her. Then she had some of her beloved alcohol and started to say things like >Me, the brightest star today! Wasn't I amazing~< or >That's how you do it! I won't ever leave the show business anymore! I hope I can show that to Takahsiro too!"
ERIKA to sign with Avex
Avex has confirmed that they will be signing actress Sawajiri Erika this month. Previously signed on to STUDIOSEVEN Recordings, a subsidiary of Sony Entertainment and STARDUST MUSIC as ERIKA, she will most likely be kicking off her career under new management as a singer.

Sawajiri returns to Japan, press conference expected on January 23http://www.tokyograph.com/news/id-7323 (http://www.tokyograph.com/news/id-7323)

It was learned on Thursday that actress Erika Sawajiri (24) is back in Japan, having quietly returned from Spain on Wednesday night. She was hounded by reporters outside her home, though she remained silent to all questions. However, multiple sources are reporting that she will hold a press conference on January 23. Sawajiri's last appearance before the press was on September 5 of last year. She was scheduled to appear at an event on September 21, but she suddenly canceled the day before and went missing, triggering various rumors. It was learned that she later went back to Spain, where her current management office is based. It is also believed that she is again living there with her husband Tsuyoshi Takashiro (46), even though it previously appeared that they would likely divorce.
According to Sports Hochi, Sawajiri met yesterday with a representative for the Takano Yuri Beauty Clinic, which Sawajiri had been doing commercials for. The company is holding a big event on January 23, and it is expected that the actress will be in attendance. If she does indeed hold a press conference there, she will likely comment on the status of her marriage with Takashiro. Sawajiri had previously planned to sign a management contract with Avex, but it is said that one of the conditions was that she had to divorce Takashiro. Avex has continued to not respond to questions regarding Sawajiri.
Sports Hochi also reports that there have been rumors of Sawajiri appearing in a Hollywood movie, though nothing has been confirmed yet. The newspaper notes that building her career overseas may be an alternative to trying to regain her foothold in Japan.

I agree, she's too fucking adorable :heart:
I think she's the type that don't age :lol:
i agree,too bad(waaay too bad) things got through her head and lost many fans in the process.
I'm surprised she still had a career after being on those incidents..
Well the woman has talent and the looks , she must come back!
She has far more than "a small bit of talent" I think, but yes, there are always 10 waiting in the wings who will gladly replace anyone who takes a wrong step.
I will be betting on her being successful going forward, won't be the same as five years ago, but she is a different person now
Wishing Erika a return to full health and vitality soon. More important than promoting the film is her well being.
Why can't access the helter skelter picture? The message show system error or no authorize to view . Can administrator just make it public. Thank
