Sayumi Michishige: A little bit of this and that....
Will be working on the posts for my number one fave of all time after this, if you don't hear from me for a day you'll know the reason. After going eons without a post for new Sayumi happenings have two for today, following this are the scans from her latest photobook "Dream". Sayumi is also making a return to the world of music, above is a short clip for her debut single "Loneliness Tokyo" which is being released tomorrow. To be honest it's just a so-so song at best, it's so over produced it could be anyone singing the tune.
Wonder if Sayumi's fan base is still huge to make the song a hit? She took such a long break when she graduated from Morning Musume at the end of 2014, Sayumi has become more active this year but have a feeling so many have forgotten about her. As you can see above she'll be performing at the Cotton Club next week and also has a few concerts for December planned, Sayumi was also in a pair of plays earlier this year and one of them is coming out on DVD in November. Sayumi's 12th PB came out on July 13th which was also her 29th(!) birthday, where has the time gone? Pics here are from an interview she did for the book back in July with Digital Asahi.
There was also a pair of mag spreads for the book, still need to do a few posts on Sayumi's older spreads as I've only had one or two posts for them. First off is from the July 24th issue of Flash.
That bottom pic of Sayumi above is just so darn good. Set here is from the July 31st edition of SPA!
Sayumi's "Dreams" PB was released on July 13th, the following day an event was held for it at the Book Fast store in Shinjuku. No clue what the sales for the book were, not many Hello Project member's books make the top ten as quite a few are sold at concerts and events which Oricon doesn't count but Sayumi didn't have any Summer shows to sell the book at. Plenty of fine looking pics here from the event which was also for her 29th birthday, following the pics is a video of the event.
