Asian-American Singer Leah Dizon Rises to Stardom

Leah Dizon's career in Japan is steamrolling ahead. The 21-year-old American pin-up girl/singer performed her first solo concert last night at O-East in Shibuya, one of the most popular districts for Tokyo's youth. The 90-minute set included 16 songs, several sexy outfits and minimal chat, though her Japanese skills have noticeably improved over the last year. Cosplay is a big part of her act, and yesterday's concert ended with her wearing the yellow cap, pleated miniskirt and backpack of a typical Japanese elementary school student.

She only came to Japan for the first time in 2006 but already had a fan base here, largely from the cosplay photos she posted on her blog. 2006 saw the release of a best-selling photo book and Dizon's self-promotion included a home-made video of her singing an Amuro Namie hit. The whole thing went so smoothly that some started to ask whether she was really a Japanese after all. The half French-American, half Chinese-Filipina was born in Las Vegas and raised in Los Angeles. She made her official recording debut in February and has released three singles and an album.

Sources say she has a good chance of being invited to appear on NHK's "Kohaku Uta Gassen" on New Year's Eve and maybe even being named Best Newcomer at the Japan Record Awards. Named after the Star Wars character Princess Leah, she is often referred to as the "gravurekai no kurofune" or "Black Ship of the Pin-up World", a reference to the Black Ships of Admiral William Perry that helped end Japan's centuries of isolation in the mid-1850s.

Leah Dizon rules.

I think she is purty.

I think the blood type is an Asian thing, in terms of why they tell people.

Like certain blood types have personality characteristics, in the same way people use astrology.

I might be way off though, shrug.

You are right Logan, I was told what my blood type is but I forgot. Not sure if its an Asian thing or just a Japanese thing, but it was a Japanese girl that told me about all this.

[suhster85]

The blood type thing is an asian thing. In Korea when you go on a blind date(meeting), three standard questions are your age, job, and blood type. Blood types are like astrological signs in asia. Certain blood types share certain personality traits. For example, a blood type of AB is usually either a genius or a psycho.

I thought when you go on a date in Korea, the girl asks you if you have a Mercedes Benz and how much money you make per year.

Then when she finds out you drive a G20 and work at A Spec she suddenly tells you that she left the oven on and home and needs to go turn it off.

Ohhhh, my bad, that's only in Los Angeles.

LOL

But speaking of Korea....here's my future wife (Hyori) dancing:

That article was written by idiots.

That doesn't even make sense!

So dumb that they're confusing ethnicity and nationality people need to learn the difference between such simple-ass shit

We recently found a Japanese TV commercial featuring 2 of our favorite gravure idols, cute Yuko Ogura 小倉優子 and hot American import model Leah Dizon リア・ディゾン . The advertising gurus for food company Lotte put the two together wearing kimino’s and being cute while eating Yukimi Daifuku 雪見だいふく a popular brand of mochi ice cream. Although it’s getting a little cooler in Japan, this commercial makes us feel all warm inside!

Click here to see the Yukimi Daifuku ice cream ad

Do you prefer this kind of ice cream ad or this one? (with the busty Harumi Nemoto 根本 はるみ)

she looks like an animated character off one of those rpg games

[azndoc]

OMG stop the madness.

I can't handle it anymore.

The one with Hyori dancing with the cameraman focusing on her ass and legs was perfect.

The one with Jessica and Hyori is just awwwwww.......

[Pank]

Named after the Star Wars character Princess Leah

DORK ALERT:

that would make sense if her name wasn't spelled Princess Leia
