Several days ago, I went to GACKT's live in Omiya.
My sworn friend's solo act since long ago was amazingly excellent. He is indeed great! SGZ
GACKT confirmed in his recent blog that he lost a few TV appearances (FNS Uta Natsu Matsuri and MUSIC FAIR, to name two that we know of) because of the recent story that appeared in the tabloids and the reaction to it of some nervous TV stations and sponsors.
Many fans are upset about this and there has been a petition going around for the last few days asking Fuji TV to reinstate GACKT to the FNS line up. It is now at over 1,000 signatures so if you haven't signed it already, here's the link - English navigation
The support GACKT has received from his fans over this issue and also the general comments have been noticed by the mainstream media and Yahoo Japan posted an article about this here.
