TOKYO —
Singer-actress Anna Tsuchiya, 25, made an appearance at a press conference for au’s new mobile service, “Gangan Mail,” on Monday. Tsuchiya, who announced her second pregnancy in September, accented her round belly in rock ‘n’ roll style with jeans and a leather jacket, singing the praises of au’s new merchandise.
The new service, which starts on Nov 9, lets au subscribers send as much mail as they want regardless of attachments for a flat rate of 780 yen. In the commercial, Tsuchiya appears in front of a screen displaying Tsurube Shofukutei while belting out a rock-flavored tune, singing, “It doesn’t matter who you send to, use as much mail as you want for free! Tsurube is shocked! Babyon!”
Tsuchiya herself seemed to like the song, saying, “It’s catchy and easy to understand. I really enjoyed filming the commercial but it was tiring.”

This news item is about some mobile phone, someone's second baby, some song, what is it?
Please slow down a bit with these services which actually nobody needs?

It is not free. It is an extra ¥780 attached to the monthly bill which is so hard to understand. I cannot figure out my keitai bill. Can any of you?

Stirfry that is classic! Thats another one for the annals of Japan Today! Whilst not wanting to be judgemental, this seems to happen too often in Japan. I wonder whether its the same father? Only time will tell.

Good luck to Anna. She is one of the few originals in the Jpop/rock scene.

how does selling yourself and the image of yourself for any advertiser that will pay you make someone original? This is the heart of the japanese entertainment industry. everything and everyone is for sale and as such none of the players have any credibility. they are dessicated advertising vehicles without a shred of artistic endeavor or creativity. shameless posers. GO ANNA!
