Gackt-sama! This is perhaps the only time I’ll ever admit such a thing, but… I’m completely enamored with him!

In case you were wondering, Camui M. S. Gackt is a talented J-rocker from Japan. He sings, plays several different instruments, writes his own lyrics, and I also believe composes his own music. He is currently a popular entertainer and has a vast following from many different parts of the world. And if I remember correctly, he can also speak English and French with varying degrees of fluency… apart from his native Japanese, of course.

I still don’t quite know how I’ve become infatuated with him, since I’m normally not a huge fan of rock, but I suppose some of Gackt-san’s appeal (besides his androgynous good looks and his elaborate costumes) comes from his mysterious origins… apparently, Gackt has never disclosed his real name or age and claims to be a vampire born somewhere around 1540. He says he gained psychic powers after a near-fatal accident in his childhood and used to be possessed by spirits, and consequently, does not wish to have children so these paranormal abilities would not be passed to them.

Naturally, my admiration for him increased considerably after hearing this. Long live Lord Gackt!
