claims to be 400 something years old, 460 something i think.

born 1540? 467 then

anyways how old does he look to you? this person baffles me because of the perfection of his body. im not gay or anything, its just his skin, hair, etc.

sure you can say its photoshopped and stuff, but when he appears on tv or is drenched by falling into a lake, his skin and glow look the same.

the thing is, he has been around for over a decade and seems to reverse his aging process.

media sources speculate him to be 35.

is he hiding some secret from all of us?

also claims to be able to see dead people.

speaks about 5 languages.

the reason im asking is because i want to know your guys theories on this person.

he has smoked and drank alcohol all of his life. although i think he quit smoking last year.

Hmm... I'd expect him to look much more like a grasshopper.

It's Gackt. He's entirely insane. He did later admit that he wasn't in fact a 400-year-old vampire.

[Johnnymushio]

actually, i just asked a question on yahoo answers. very funny responses i think. the question was, "is this person good looking?"

i was careful not to mention it was a guy, and let others decide for themselves.

oh and when did he admit he wasnt a 400 year old vampire

oh and when did he admit he wasnt a 400 year old vampireHis autobiography, I believe.

[Johnnymushio]

I read his autobiography. he never stated his age, but he mentioned things, like as a child he tried combining two playstations, and that he was spoiled with many cars. unless they had cars and playstations in the 1500's, hes lying.

i always thought that that autobiogrpahy of his was fake. for publicity.

being forced to play piano

not being able to watch tv

spoiled with cars

scary laterns

seeing dead people

mental hospitals

not dying because he hadnt had sex in a while (if not having sex is the key to living forever, why do little kids die? hmm)

[djr33]

Hmm.... Japanese Michael Jackson. Screwed up childhood, fame, results in identity crisis, dressing effeminately and believing in and promoting delusions of living forever.

[Twey]

Heh, welcome to the JRock scene :p It's no unusual sight.

[Johnnymushio]

has plastic surgery gotten so good lately? he doesnt age.

[Twey]

He does. Japanese people just age differently, or seem to to eyes used to Caucasians, I think. My Japanese teacher is apparently in her fifth decade, but I'd thought she was only in her late 20s.

[jscheuer1]

A 500 year old egg, maybe.

[djr33]

Oh, I know about the style, Twey. But I was talking about his age thing, and denial. Or, perhaps that's normal as well.

[Twey]

If not exactly normal, that kind of... ah... eccentricity is far from the rarity found outside of JRock :)

I have noticed this as well, and have further noticed that there is a short time when the "switch" is made, and it appears very un-graceful. Meaning the Asian peoples as a whole are beautiful and stay so until very late in life, but one day they are young and gorgeous, and then they wake up and have caught up in looks with their actual years.
