Kamenashi Kazuya & Other Cast Members of Upcoming Movie “Ore Ore” Appear at a Promotional Event


On February 21st, KAT-TUN’s Kamenashi Kazuya appeared at a promotional event for his starring movie “Ore Ore (It’s me, It’s me).”

“Ore Ore” is based on Hoshino Tomoyuki’s award-winning novel, and it’s directed by Miki Satoshi (“Jikou Keisatsu”, “Instant Numa”).

The story revolves around an electronics retail store worker named “Nagano Hitoshi ” (Kamenashi), who becomes involved in a scam called “ore ore sagi” (* “ore ore sagi” is a kind of scam that is primarily targeted at the elderly. The scammer calls their target, pretends to be someone they know, usually their relatives, and asks for money.)

While Hitoshi goes around pretending to be other people, he finds that “me” starts multiplying, having the same face and personality. Before long, the elimination of the other “me” begins. In the movie, Kamenashi plays 33 of “me”, such as a “military enthusiast me”, “big breasted me”, and “full-body tattoo me”.

Kamenashi commented, “It was like I appeared in every single scene, and I had to memorize the whole script. It was quite a heavy experience as I can’t even bring the hard task to remembrance.” He then continued, “I was always in the middle of costume change, but I was able to utilize my fast changing clothes skills which I have built up through live concerts.”

Other than Kamenashi, the director Miki, Uchida Yuki who plays the mysterious heroine named “Sayaka”, and Kase Ryo who plays “Tajima” a sarcastic boss of Hitoshi, appeared at the event.

During the event, it was announced that Kamenashi would have to challenge himself with 33 missions until the release day. Kamenashi said while dropping his shoulders, “So you guys are driving me into a corner again.” which had Kase and Uchida taking pity on him.

“Ore Ore” is scheduled for release on May 25th, and KAT-TUN’s song “FACE to Face” has been chosen as its theme song.

The trailer of the movie can be checked on the official site (here).

Kamenashi Kazuya Achieves Success for His “HR Project”


NTV’s “Going! Sports and News”, where KAT-TUN‘s Kamenashi Kazuya is a regular host, broadcasted Kamenashi’s stunning success with his “HR (home run) Project” after two and half years of training. His successful home run was broadcasted last January 13th (11:55, JST).

Kamenashi was able to hit the home run after the 3rd pitch,which was witnessed by Egawa (co-host in Going!), Nakata Sho (Nippon Ham baseball player), and Kawamura Ryo (NTV announcer) who were watching on the sidelines.

Upon realizing that he made a hit when the ball hit the stands, Kamenashi threw the bat and jumped with glee. “It was like a dream!” he commented.

As suggested by Softbank Hawk’s player, Matsunaka Nobuhiko, Kamenashi received a “champagne shower” to celebrate his victory back at the home base. Giant’s team manager, Hara Tatsunori, sent a congratulatory video to Going!, “I applaud you from the bottom of my heart.”

During the first day of performances in Yokohama Arena, showing off a total 25 tracks mostly from their first album “one Sexy Zone”, they vowed to an audience of 15000 people gathered at the venue.

When they were asked about their New Year’s routine, and otoshidama presents from their seniors during Countdown, Nakajima Kento commented, “I did not get any money but for me, my otoshidama was, though it’s a little early… I was able to spend that day with Kamenashi (Kazuya), Masuda (Takahisa), Yamada (Ryosuke), Okamoto (Keito) and Johnny-san, we went to eat soba noodles that night so for me that’s a nice equivalent”.

Kamenashi Kazuya Confesses Fighting with Members


Last Dec 3rd, KAT-TUN‘s Kamenashi Kazuya appeared on NTV‘s “Jinsei ga Kawaru Ippunkan no Fukaii Hanashi” for their “Kotoshi no kao to rekidai sutā ga seizoroi SP”. Kamenashi is currently doing promotions for his upcoming movie “Yokai Ningen Bem” this December.

Since the main topic is about fistfights/fighting, Kamenashi shared an incident involving fellow KAT-TUN member that happened in recent years.

“There being (a quarrel within the members), we were still young and we were nervous before the curtain call. Nakamaru (Yuichi) or Ueda (Tatsuya) committed a mistake while were onstage and I think that I should be following Ueda. The moment we went out from the curtain, Ueda was like, ‘What do you think you’re doing?! You should  follow!‘. To be told something like that, I was like, ‘Even it is possible for you, I can’t do it‘.

“I tried not be childish and I was like, ‘it’s all good, let’s stop it‘ and I think that Ueda got annoyed with me. Though we’re in a group, I was not thinking about the group. The next day, we got called in by the President, we were told that it is not cool to fight in work. The President held our hands (Kamenashi and Ueda) and told us to reconcile. I think it’s good that the President decided to act as an in-between with our fight.”
