Avril is turning Japanese!


Avril Lavigne’s new preppy and poppy single will be incomprehensible to some, but not because of her new hard-core Beverly Hills HS cheerleader slut look (that’s a mouthful).
The single “Girlfriend” has been released in 8 different languages, including a wild-ass Mandarin version. Word on the street and industry is that Lavigne worked her Canuk ass off with a language coach to make sure that every word and intonation was correct.
Girlfriend debuted at number one on Japan’s international and domestic charts, which we hear is something unheard of for an English-speaking artist. We also hear that she’s promoting her music through a Japanese-style manga comic, “Make 5 Wishes,” which will distributed via cellphone. If any of our Japanese friends grab it, let us know.

David “Coconuter” Eric Poarch

The Coconuter
We’re totally in love with David Eric Poarch aka The Coconuter, no less ‘cos he could easily pass off as a Freshmen or CorbinFisher model (doesn’t he resemble Cody/Andy Honda/Britton a lil?).
The half-American and half-Filipino left a promising future in the USA to live the simple life in the Philippines. While most Filipinos dream of leaving the country for a greener pasture abroad, he purposely “jumped off the bridge” to find his niche and purpose in life. Armed with his digital camera, he maintains a blog-cum-travelogue-cum-diary at Adventures of the Cocunuter where he proves that much can be discovered when one has little.

The video (taken when he was still in school in the States) above is a result of an assignment he did for his Psychology class (project was on Catharsis, but we’re not quite sure what form of relief that served for David. Hey, whatever floats your boat right?). David sings off-key for the most part, and we admit some parts did make us cringe. God knows what Simon Cowell will say of it? But it’s apparent from this video that he’s a boy who ain’t afraid to give it all he’s got. We applaud his spirit.
More videos after the jump.

Jase on BentleyRace.com

Yesterday’s intro to BentleyRace.com post (QC Link) commanded some strong comments from our readers that the Asian boy in the teaser photo was quite tasty. Because we always love giving you what you most want most, here’s more of Jace. He’s a student in Melbourne who met Ben at a bar. He loved the idea of modeling for the site on the condition that Ben join in for some fun. Jace has a beautiful cock and delicious ass and makes for one hot update from Down Under.

Boys Love (ボーイズ ラブ)

Boys Love (ボーイズ ラブ)
Heart! This goes out specially to James who caught the original post on Qi Ji and requested for a translation! We’re glad you guys are checking out the different materials on the Chinese blog!
Following their collaboration in The Prince of Tennis musicals, actors Kotani Yoshikazu and Saito Takumi team up again for the decidedly different Boys Love. The title says it all: “Boys Love” or BL is a term used by Japanese publishers to categorize gay-themed works. Perhaps a bishonen dream come true for The Prince of Tennis fans, Boys Love paints a tender, illicit romance between two men with vastly different personalities and backgrounds.
update
Opening sequence quote
Heart! John, here’s seeing to your request!
The quote was taken off one of Samuel Taylor Coleridge’s poem (not sure which one it is though!). Samuel Taylor Coleridge was an English poet, critic, and philosopher who was, along with his friend William Wordsworth, one of the founders of the Romantic Movement in England.
Here’s our meta-translation:

“From a chanced meeting… to getting to know each other… to falling in love… and to saying goodbye… This is the sad story of many.”

Ken Hirai – Aika (Elegy)


The music video for Ken Hirai’s latest single “哀歌 (エレジー)” was promoted to be one to look out for as it was to show the Japanese pop star (who’s long been rumoured to be gay) naked. He had apparently “trained up” in preparation for baring it. QC checked out the video with much anticipation but was severely let down. What Naked? You could barely see anything below his collar bones!! Maybe Ken didn’t train hard enough.
