New preview of Gackt in Bunraku!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TEY1Do0hWig&feature=player_embedded

(Also, I think the reason he cut his hair is for the drama he is going to be in called Tempest where his head is pretty much shaved. So yeah, he'll be growing it back soon enough)

EDIT: just watched the YFC video....pretty sure that's a joke I mean come on xD
2ND EDIT: actually now I'm not sure anymore.... I'm so confused.....D:

That movie still isn't out? :lol: I thought he was working on that a million years ago.

From what I can tell its been featured in a few different film festivals. I remember fairly recently reading that the movie got a US distributor as well as a UK distributor.

^ WOW the vocal range on Paranoid Doll is crazy!!!!!

EDIT:

Might be old news, but has anybody noticed how on Gackt's twitter he kinda describes himself as a visual kei singer?

EDIT: And the plot thickens again! Well, kind of. Is it normal for Gackt to perform at V-Rock Festival? I can't recall if he has done so in the past. Anyway, Yellow Fried Chickenz is part of the lineup for V-Rock's 2011 show, according to the official website.

Gackt really has never tried to pull away from visual kei, he has always said he is a visual artist, especially with his most recent tour before YFC

Agreed. Even with his old stuff he was always a visual artist. Of course he has tonned down since MM days, but his presentations always had theatricals and he always had his own style.

So they had the Bunraku screening at AM^2, and for the last couple weeks the organizers had been encouraging the rumor that Gackt would be present through little "hints" on Facebook, so yesterday people were lined up for the screening like 4 hours in advance (needless to say I didn't go to it, the line was so long it was out the door) hoping to see Gaku.
Anyway, as I predicted, he wasn't there and now people are all mad like "You lied to us!" and AM^2 is like "ohoho, we never said he would be there, we just said there would be a 'surprise guest' and posted his picture all over our Facebook derp derp". ::gaku:: ::gaku:: ::gaku::

If it gets REALLY bad, they can always say the surprise guest was Invisible Man.

gackt was NOT there and there was no special guest of any kind. quite a few people got super pissed at staff and asked for refunds claiming they skipped AX to come to this con just for gackt. drama drama drama.
For reference here's one of the things the con posted on Facebook a couple weeks ago (among other things).

I feel sorry for the people who fell for it, that's a pretty cheap trick.

I completely agree. That was low of them to draw people in like that. Wow, they even said 'guess who's coming'. That's just mean.



Also-- yeah, it's true that Gackt has always been theatrical since MM. Looks like he has always been a visual artist ^^

And ahaha, Gackt+Hizaki YES xD


EDIT: If you look at the FB page for AM^2 there are some interesting comments on some of the statuses. I'll just quote what one of the comments said:

"Gackt did give the go to come to Am2, but he was not under contract so he can decide if or if not to come at last minute. This is why Am2 never made it official, it was always a maybe. Everyone should have taken that information lightly, es...pecially for someone as big as him. Personally, anyone who "goofd" had to be those who presented the film for not clarifying if he was in the building before the film. Correct me if im wrong, but Gackt was probably on everyone's mind that day; a simple 'Yes or No he's (not) here' BEFORE the screening of Bunraku would have totally avoided all that conflict. Kudos to Am2 for giving us the entire screening (not just sneak peek) of Bunraku btw :)"

Someone fill me in, cause I'm lazy. What IS Gackt doing with that hideous hair? And what IS he doing with those visual guys?
