Ado hizo una transmisión especial en el cruce de Shibuya de "Kira", su canción para alentar a la selección nipona.
En su monólogo compara su ambición por ganar un grammy con el sueño de Japón por ganar el mundial.
EL PADRE DE ADO INTENTÓ ROBARSE SU ÉXITO
En su novela autobiográfica, la icónica cantante japonesa Ado confesó el doloroso conflicto que destrozó su dinámica familiar tras el éxito mundial de "Usseewa".
Su padre comenzó a adjudicarse el crédito de su carrera, presumiendo su parentesco con extraños y poniendo en riesgo el estricto anonimato que protege la identidad de la artista.
Tras intentar ponerle límites y ver que él se enfurecía negándose a respetarlos, Ado tomó la dolorosa decisión de alejarse definitivamente de él para proteger su sueño.
Resulta que su mayor dolor de cabeza no estaba en la industria musical, sino en la sala de su propia casa.
J.K. Simmons did not appear in a film until he was 39. He did not win an Oscar until he was 60. And for the last 30 years, every time you have heard the Yellow M&M talk in a commercial, that voice has been him.
He grew up wanting to write classical music. He got a music degree from the University of Montana in 1978, spent six summers acting at a small playhouse on a lake in Montana, then eventually drove a broken-down Fiat across the country to New York with $400 in his pocket.
For the next decade he was a musical theater actor, scraping by in regional theaters before finally making it to Broadway in 1990. He played Captain Hook in a Peter Pan revival, a fast-talking hustler in Guys and Dolls, and dozens of smaller stage roles.
His first big break came at age 42. He played a frightening neo-Nazi inmate named Vern Schillinger on Oz, HBO's first hour-long drama series. Five years later he was J. Jonah Jameson, the bellowing flat-topped newspaper editor with the cigar, in the 2002 Spider-Man with Tobey Maguire. He fit the role so completely that whenever Jameson has appeared on the big screen since, in Tobey Maguire's films, in Tom Holland's films, in the animated Spider-Verse, the voice and face have been Simmons. Twenty-four years on, no other actor has ever been cast as Jameson in a Spider-Man movie.
Then came Whiplash in 2014. The whole film was shot in 19 days on a budget of $3.3 million. Simmons played a brutal jazz teacher who breaks his student to try and make him great. The movie made $50 million at the box office, and Simmons walked away with the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor. He was 60. Up to that moment, he had spent 30 years on screen as the guy you recognized but couldn't name.
The Oscar did not slow him down. At 61, he hired a personal trainer and started lifting weights, until people on the internet were posting photos of his arms. He also kept showing up everywhere as a voice actor. He played Mayor Lionheart in Zootopia, Kai in Kung Fu Panda 3, and Omni-Man in Amazon Prime's Invincible. He was also Stanford Pines on Disney's Gravity Falls, Tenzin on Nickelodeon's The Legend of Korra, Cave Johnson in the Portal video games, and the main villain in Baldur's Gate 3, which won Game of the Year in 2023. Six films on his resume have been nominated for Best Picture at the Oscars: The Cider House Rules, Juno, Up in the Air, True Grit, Whiplash, and La La Land. And he is still the Yellow M&M.
He turns 72 in January. The work keeps coming.
🚨 @elonmusk is 100% RIGHT, Something is DEEPLY WRONG!
Henry Nowak: 18-year-old white British kid stabbed to death on the street.
Police handcuff the dying victim while he bleeds out… because his attacker cried “racism.”
Legacy media stories: 0
George Floyd: THOUSANDS OF stories and a gold casket.
Two-tier media. Two-tier policing. Two-tier justice.
Legacy legacy media is the enemy of the people.
White victims don’t count.
Google just permanently banned a manga artist’s entire Google account, just for uploading his own old manga files to Drive.
AI moderation triggered and flagged it, he tried to submit appeal then he got rejected it by Google and now he has lost everything like Gmail, Drive, all linked services is gone.
He never even sharing the files publicly, it’s only backing up his own a private work like any creator and artists.
This is Google Drive “AI moderation” in action. No human support and no serious to take action.
Physical storage or real private alternatives only.
Support the artists getting screwed by this. This level of corporate overreach is insane.
@threenotes_jp Frieren is the most recent anime I can think of. But Koe No Katachi made me cry when I rewatched it last year (I cried the first time as well🥲)
Rest in peace, Professor ❤️ Thank you, Tom Kane, for lending your voice to the father of three perfect little girls and bringing The Force to millions of fans. You'll live on in our childhood memories forever.
We are sad to learn that Japanese master of horror Koji Suzuki has passed away at 68.
Koji Suzuki's nightmares defined an era of horror beginning in the '90s with THE RING, originally a Suzuki novel, and DARK WATER, based on a Suzuki short story.
Rest in Peace, master.
the creator of Sadako has passed away.
Sadako changed horror forever. she became an iconic symbol of terror for the world and yet for many of us, she became comfort, inspiration, and a way to find beauty in the tragic and misunderstood through art.
RIP Koji Suzuki. thank you 🫶
