Fukuyama Masaharu (Nagasaki Prefecture, 1969- )
Fukuyama ‘Masha‘ Masaharu was born in Nagasaki and had a reputation as a prankster in his youth. He got his nickname seemingly because his father has trouble with his teeth and couldn’t say his name properly. He came to Tokyo straight out of high school and auditioned for the Amuse film company. But his first few were spent trying to build a career as a musician. He made his less than sparkling live debut in August of 1989 – no-one turned up. His debut single, released in 1990 didn’t fare much better. But a later single from his debut album Message was used in a Victor TV commercial and he had his break. Weekly broadcasts on the famous All Night Nippon radio show made him a rare DJ/actor combination and also did wonders for his popularity.

He appeared in his first TV drama in 1991, (Because There is Tomorrow) with popular actress Imai Miki. In 1993, the drama Hitotsu Yane no Shita (Under One Roof) was a smash and made a star of Fukuyama. He was chosen that summer as ‘best jeanist‘, a bizarre title that gets a lot of publicity, and he had his first million-selling album Calling. He has since starred in several successful TV series, such as Hitotsu Yane no Shita 2 and Meguriai (Chance Encounter) with actress Tokiwa Takako, for which he has often recorded the title tune. He was sent by TV Asahi as a photographer for the 2000 Sydney Olympics. In polls of the most popular male performers, Fukuyama is perennially chosen 2nd behind SMAP member Kimura Takuya. In two separate surveys in 2006, he was chosen as the musician most people would want to perform at their wedding and as the ideal marriage partner.

FROM ME :

I can’t tell much more about Masha, since i haven’t known him personally *Hahaha… of course!*. But one thing i can tell, he’s so multi-talented. I was impressed while seeing him in Galileo, in addition, i shocked when got information that he can sing too! Wow…. His voice’s good too!

This is a little song from masha, taken from youtube. Enjoy it!

This is Theme Song for Waterboys… Hey, is this a concert in Hong kong? or China? Coz  i catch a word, sounds like, China in the end of beautiful day’s videos, or Milk tea? Ah, i forget!

GOD! I really wanna drink it!

*I update it later….*
