 Brief background of May’n! 

★May Nakabayashi (中林 芽依 )

★Born October 21, 1989

★She sings various theme songs for anime, like being the voice of Sheryl Nome in Macross F frontier where all her fans are familiar with 

One of her songs:

~ Chase the world ~

I really loved her cover of God Knows, her voice is so powerful for someone so petite^^ 

Here is the video♪

Her newest album is "Kyo ni Koiro" (今日に恋色Today in Color of Love) 

We began our interview for her!! She’s so cute in person, totally goddess like *fangirl* 

Q & A (質問) with MAY'N!(*∩ω∩)

1. What is your number one favourite food in Singapore?

May'n : My number one favourite food is roti prata♪ Especially banana prata (笑)

2. How do you find Singapore?

May'n: I like the delicious food, beautiful and clean streets♪ 

Also, as Singapore is the starting point for my career,  it is therefore close to my heart. I feel very calm every time when I come back here because it 's somewhere that I'm familiar with.

3. Out of all the songs you sing, which is your favourite song? Why?

May'n : It would be the song “Diamond Crevasse.” The song represents myself, so it's very important to me♪

4. When you have free time, what do you usually do?

May'n: I enjoy conversations in English and also going to the gym♪ (笑)

5. When you are a singer, what are some things that you are grateful for?

May'n: I am grateful for having the chance to encounter new fans when singing and also to sing. Recently, rather than singing alone on stage, I felt that it was fun to sing together with my fans

♪(o^ ^o) /

6. What can we look forward to with regards to your future music plans?

May'n: Because I’m reaching my 10th anniversary, I wish to take on more challenges in new areas of my singing career. I have always had a cool image so I will like to try to change my image  into a more cutesy image (As seen in her latest album) , not just experimenting in different genres but more of expanding out in my singing career♪

7. What would you like to say to your fans?

May'n: I’m happy to come back to Singapore for a solo live concert after quite some time. I will do my best to come back soon to meet everyone again♪ (^///^)

When we reached there, wow there were so many  fans!

Fans (mostly male) were already lining up outside TAB~

Got out wristbands~ Super excited to go in!

Only snapped this shot because no photography was allowed. We managed to get a good side view spot cause we queued early ( ´ ▽ ` )ﾉ

[updated] Official pictures from the concert by SOZO:

We had so much fun!! May'n was so full of energy and all her songs are so catchy!!

She was so cute that she took time to talk to fans in between her songs

Asking things like what food she should try etc.

Food like tau huey, chendol, were thrown out by the fans ;3

Everyone were waving their lightsticks and singing along with May'n ! She also sang songs from her newest 

album "Kyo ni Koiro" (今日に恋色, Today in Color of Love) 

Also songs like「私のしるし」Watashi no shirushi (my favourite! xD ), Lose my illusions etc.

Here's a preview of her album:

She also took her time to thank each and every single one of her fans in each sections by saying Arigatou so many times! so touched n.n  ♥；（●＾3＾●メσ）

We really enjoyed the concert!

Thank you very much SOZO Entertainment for bringing May'n and also Cutepop for the opportunity!! ^^

Lets hope May'n will come again for AFA this year! ;3

May Highlights＼（＾∀＾）メ（＾∀＾）ノ

SPEC
 – First and Exclusive Brand New Drama (Every Saturday - Premieres 17 May 2014 at 8pm) 

Synopsis:

There are those hidden among us in this world who possess special talents (SPEC) against which no ordinary power nor rational mind can measure up to or comprehend. Should even a tiny percentage of these extremely gifted individuals choose to bend their talents to malevolent use, the potential for great destruction is immense.  But what if the governments of many nations have been aware of this threat and are already engaged in a clandestine war of superhuman dimensions? They would certainly then have at their disposal elite teams of detectives capable of going to extraordinary lengths to confront and defeat such superhuman SPEC criminals. This is their story.

Dear My Cosmo 
– Exclusive Premiere (Premieres 25 May 2014 at 9.10pm) 

Synopsis:

Based on a true story of a blind hose and a horseback girl

Kanae Kikuchi is a sophomore, belonging to the horsemanship club at Sanbongi Agricultural High School in Japan. In the club, she has to take care of the “toughest” horse named Cosmo who has poor eyesight with a strong mistrust for humans. Obviously, it’s a difficult task for anyone to gentle her and Kanae feels weary of taking care of her in the back of her mind.  One day, when she takes Cosmo out for a walk, Cosmo suddenly rages around. Cosmo becomes very nervous when she steps even on tiny dents on the road. Kanae then learns that Cosmo has completely lost her eyesight and realizes how hard for Cosmo to live blind as a horse. Then, she changes her mind to spend most of her time with Cosmo. With Kanae’s tender care, Cosmo gradually opens herself to Kanae. Before Kanae enters the last equine competition event in the school, she makes a surprising decision to participate in it with Cosmo! Don’t miss this heart-warming and endearing movie.

Lovely Complex

*From Asian Wiki*

Risa , a tall Japanese girl, gets rejected by a boy because she is taller than him. Otani , a short Japanese guy, gets rejected by a girl because he is shorter than her. Obviously these two would make the oddest of couples and would never be a good match for each other right? Well love doesn’t always follow such logic as Love Complex shows.

Some shots from the movie itself- (Is'nt the lead guy cute?! n_n)

To view them, they are on HELLO! JAPAN, Channel 149 on Starhub Cable Vision

Are you healthy? 

I'm trying to write more Japanese on here! mainly to practice my langauge because I may be going to Kyoto for exchange this coming fall (if everything goes well) ;3 

FYI, I'm currently taking Japanese 3 hehe. But my oral skills are still..ちょっと。。^^; xD

がんばれ！(*ﾉ∀◕ฺ*)σ

This is the anime we are cosing: (I do not own any of the images)

涼宮ハルヒ The Melancholy of Suzumiya Haruhi

Here is a video of the song God Knows.. so addictive!! I keep playing it hehe x3

Anyway, we got the idea to cos because of our Japanese studies project module! Post war film and anime~ we were doing research on the anime so it kinda happened naturally..

#passionateaboutourmod ヽ( ´∇`)ﾉ　

Just to recount what happened on that day! xD

Had to meet the others at 11am but as usual was late ^^;; sorry guys!!! T_T And we actually spent 1 hour in the toilet dressing and fixing our wigs z_z Reason being my skirt was quite loose then need to safety pin! wanted to tie high twintails but the wig became quite messy! (>｡<;)y-  Anyway, it was supposed to be a fun shoot! (ー∀ー；)

Poor siongthye and nengwei (our manager and photog) had to wait outside haha (°o°:)　

ごめんね！

So grateful to Amber for cutting the red ribbon for Mikuru's costume and helpIng me tie my wig~

A pity Eleanor couldnt buy a wig on time for the shoot though :( We need a Nagano!!(*ﾟÅﾟ；*)

With Amber!! A very crazy Haruhi ~

I was laughing at all the shots we took ;3 reason being she gives epic expresions and funny poses!

Messy wig after the shoot haha ;3

With Nengwei and Amber! Photog so must pose with the camera~ ^^v

Ageyo sal x natural puppy eyes girly look

Hello everyone!

I saw this eyemake tutorial awhile back on tumblr so I thought I'll share it with you all^^

ふつくりキラキラ "sparklng tearbag"

also known as the puppy eyes look~

*POINT*

Eyemake

♥Green circle lenses

♥For the ageyo sal look-

♥Use a white & brown eyeshadow to highlight and shade your eye pouch~ 

♥Upper eyelids- light pink white eyeshadow x one dark brown (blend)

♥Dark Pink x choco brown eyeshadow at the bottom ends of your eyes(draw them curved to give the illusion of bigger rounder eyes to give out the innocent & moe eyes feel)

♥Draw a thin line using the sharpest eyeliner

♥Brighten inner corners of eyes to make your eyes look brighter.

♥For eyelashes, focus on those that create roundness to your eyes, comb bottom lashes with a mascara 

Face make

♥Contour nose (as straight as possible) use brown to shade the bottom part to create a cute button like nose.

♥Highlight features

♥Contour sides of face with shading powder to give a v shape look

♥Blusher at the top corners of your cheeks to create a dolly look

♥Baby pink lipgloss (Melliesh series by Yui can create this look)

Just my own observations, they are by no means fullly accurate to achieve the look x3

Comfort: ♡♡♡

Design: ♡♡♡♡

Price: ♡♡♡♡ 

I really love this pair of eyelashes!! (◕ฺ ▿ฺ ◕ฺ) It's really good for creating round dolly eyes and look natural at the same time;3 I guess the only downside is that it's not very comfortable to wear! But really pretty^^ You can get 5 pairs retailing at $23.90 in Watsons xD

What do you all think? ♪
