That was a photoshoot connected to a series of commercials he was doing in the mid 2000 -ish?

It was a service more oriented to females if I recall correctly; I forgot what it was called though. That picture/photoshoot was circulated pretty heavily back then.

Plutzer prize? That hashtag (didn’t click on it though) … :smile:

Well, he once sold a dakimakura of himself seminude, so…

Yea that’s it!
Are they really, still?? lol I may have to check those out again; they were talked about quite a bit at the time. (It also spawned talk/dating rumors…)

@foccius only once? lol

This is the one I remember, but I would not be surprised if he did the stunt more than once

Oh this! Completely forgot about this!

I wanna say then, that there is at least two instances (this and one other), then, but I can’t for the life of me remember what the other one was… :sweat_smile:

Lol gotcha, I was just finding a reason to use that image :sweat_smile:

I was at both shows in Munich. First one was in July and it was 36°C that day and I was not well being squished all the time.
The first one felt special because it was the first one, the second one was less energetic because it didn’t feel like a ā€œGackt with backing bandā€ concert and more like a ā€œBand that happens to have Gackt as a memberā€ concert.
And yes, the MCs AKA ā€œGackt yelling sexual stuffā€ were like 5-10 minutes sometimes :smiling_face_with_tear:

I wouldn’t be surprised if he was literally just feeling out for how many groupies he’d have that night.

ā€œNo, literally! Who wants to fuck me?ā€

:thinking: Like he wasn’t the ā€˜head’ of the band the second time around.

Kinda sounds more draining than fun, that first one, between the temperature and the 10 minute "sex beckoning " lol

By the way, what was Jon from? Like a previous band or… :thinking: I can’t remember how that came about.

I really hate that he did so much plastic surgery that he cant even laugh anymore… and looks a bit weird - I guess thats why he almost always wears glasses recently.


I know hes old but I wish he would aged with this!

I’m sure this will be B.S. to you, but,

He has worn glasses for decades, with the reason stated that he has a light sensitivity.
Additionally, that expression you are referencing is not new, that is also decades old…

:thinking: why the ozempic reference? If your making fun of him for his looks, how does ozempic fit? Isn’t that for diabetic management?

no, I’m not making fun of him.

ozempic is prescribed for wanting to get skinny really fast if he travels to the US and buys insurance over there, and it gives a very specific look to the face during first months that I don’t think I’ve seen on anyone Japanese before this Gackt picture, actually.

He was in a band called ā€œfadeā€ which has been around since 1991 and disbanded like mid 2010s, but he joined in 2001 where he was an exchange student, so I assume he’s in his mid 40s now.
