TOKYO —

Singer-songwriter Miyuki Nakajima, 56, and singer Seiko Matsuda,　46, will appear together for the first time in a new TV ad for Fuji Film’s anti-aging cosmetic product “Astalift” from Saturday. The two will sing their hit songs from the 1970s and 1980s in the ad.

Fuji Film started the development of cosmetic products by making use of its film-related technology in 2006 after the camera market shifted to digital technology. The company has so far sold products online, but will start retail sales nationwide.

Oh, come on JT...must you give us advance notice? Why don't you just wait for the pre-commerical release press conference when at least there will be some photos with 'guts' poses and soundbites to print. [/irony]

N.B. Does any other country besides Japan have pre-commerical release press conferences (you know, the ones were the celebs stand in front of a big sign advertising their commercial, a thousand and one flash bulbs pop and the press ask groveling questions). And does any other country other than Japan make these pre-commerical release press conferences events in themselves that get reported widely throughout the media?

Maybe it's news because it's the only commercial on TV not featuring Ueto Aya.
