which celebrity would you want as your lover?

For many, winter is a special time of year where loved ones come together for holidays like Christmas and the first shrine visit of the new year. Lovers especially grow closer than ever during the holiday season.
Keeping this in mind, Oricon Style asked its readers for the 5th consecutive year on which famous celebrities of the opposite sex they would like to have as their lover. Though the survey was conducted back in October, Oricon published the results in December, just in time for the holidays.

For the males, actor Mukai Osamu came out on top with his “manly” image and debonair demeanor (as seen on variety shows). Mukai jumped from 5th place in 2010 to 1st place in 2011, proving his rising popularity in the entertainment world.
When asked why they chose Mukai Osamu, female voters said they were charmed by the deadly combination of his height (182 centimeters) and his good looks. “His face and smile and voice are all nice! I would be so proud if we could walk together,” said one voter in her 20s, echoing the sentiments of her fellow voters.
Others were reminded of his “reliable boy” image in the NHK taiga drama “Kou ~Himetachi no Sengoku” and the movie “Paradise Kiss“, or were charmed by his cooking skills. “He looks as if he could protect me,” said one woman in her 30s. Another voter in her 20s added, “I want him to make me delicious meals!”

Meanwhile, Ayasa Haruka claimed 1st place in the female ranking for the 2nd year in a row with her natural character and gentle air, which proved to be quite popular with male readers.
“She’s so cute! Her smiles are extremely nice,” commented one voter from Tokyo. Ayase was in the top three for the teen, 20s, 30s, and 40s categories, thereby proving her popularity. Many voters also cited her bubbly personality and calming aura. “She has a funny side too, and I feel like if we were together she would calm me down.”

ZONE Announces They'll Continue Band Activities Next Year!!

Girl band ZONE performed at the charity live, “Ganbare!! Tohoku Charity LIVE ~SUPER GIRLS BAND ‘MESSAGE’~” on December 20th, where they announced that they’ll continue as a group next year.

Member MIYU explained, “We visited the disaster-stricken areas a number of times, and realized that it would take more time for recovery. Thus, we decided to continue our activities next year.”

ZONE disbanded on April 1st, 2005 after their final performance at the Nippon Budokan. The members have been pursuing solo activities for a while, but got together again after the Tohoku earthquake. In August, they held their comeback live at Akasaka BLITZ, and announced that they would extend their activities to the year’s end.

MAIKO expressed, ”We want to encourage people through the power of our music. We want to also hold a tour.”

At this charity event, ZONE performed a total of nine songs including their hit number, “secret base ~Kimi ga Kureta Mono~“. Stereopony and SCANDAL also performed at the event.
