For my bday post, i will write about Anne ^^
this girl captivated my eyes since i saw her role as "Bera"
alongside with Ayase Haruka, she have my soft spot as Japan female celebrity that i love.
Click to view
Also well-known as "Female History Otaku".
I've never know her before Youkai Ningen Bemu.
My thought of her at first is "who the hell is she?" and doubted that she can act alongside with Kame.
But, don't judge the book by its cover.
My opinion change when i saw her act as "Bera".
And, as curious i am bcause of her last name "Watanabe" (yep, i am a big fan of Christopher Nolan Fave actor,
Ken Watanabe! ). So, i goes searching and reading about her on the internet.
Anne is a respectful models for Anna Sui, Christian Dior, Prada, Shiseido, Tommy Hillfiger, Baby phat, Alexander Wang, Uniqlo, Karl Lagerfeld, Thakoon.... (pheew, the big brand fashion list is keep coming). Her lovely charisma is shown whenever she walk on the runway stage. Even Ms. Alice Ritter (from Alice Ritter Show) personally requested Anne to featured on the show. Not enough with models career, she's try to act on movies and drama. In 2010, Anne debuted as singer. Which inmy opinion, she's perfectly nailed it! Oh i love her soothing voice!
Fyi, she's also a best friend of Tao Okamoto.
If you think Daddy Ken involved in her career, oh.... you are wrong.
According to several website i read, Anne never use his last name whenever she apply for projects. Nor she introduced herself as "Anne Watanabe, Ken Watanabe daughter". She simply say, "hi i'm Anne".
Anne seemed doesn't want people only recognized her as Ken's daughter. This is prove when she was running for 'Miss Japan tittle 2004'. She seemed secretly hides his family's name.
But as soon as Japanese Media found out, they started making a big deal about it. Upset with that, Anne withdrew from the competition.
But i don't know why, several fashion website put Ken's name after her name. Oh c'mon, can you guys see this girl has a talent? Regardless she has a famous father or not.
People can say anything about her (and her title about Ken's daughter) whenever they want.
But for me, Anne have her own charisma. I believe she's not like some diva's or bitchy celebrity that i know.
So far, she's 'clean' from any scandal (at least i don't find any when i search about her).
I wish best and good luck for her career.
Looking forward for her next project^^
