hiding it in fact the DAT July 4th 1973 appeared on gags gravestone ible in the opening and ending video with the sixth day and the seventh Night concert in 2004 G has an Infamous firm handshake comedians on TV like to overreact to the handshake with bone crushing sound effects added in post the top page of the fan club community site Gand de.com featured the theme Parish layout leading to you to a different section of the site the central feature was the G Castle which led to things like G’s block the lights would be on when he was online sha the drummer of Duran gray is a quiet and introverted type of person he admires g a lot he went to a party hosted by G during the party G was confused by shena’s quiet demeanor and thought that Shena didn’t enjoy himself at all and must not like him however as it turned out sha described the event as the best time of his life G his collabor ated with Japanese credit card company Oro which issued cards with a G design another infamous thing about G is this inflammatory temper he has mellowed a bit in recent years and vow to stop raising his voice when getting into an argument even G’s dog inner had a block on the old community site inner served as the spokes dog for an Environ inner served as the spokes dog inner served as a sports dog for an environmental preservation organization as he was a very environmentally conscious dog

during the 2000s G was a poster boy of the Tako Yuri Beauty Clinic he was featured in commercials magazines and promotional events [Music] [Applause] [Music] as you know by now before G started a solo career he was a member of the visual K Band M SM there G said that his motivations for getting into the visual K industry were related to the fact that he viewed it as a purely Japanese phenomenon that had potential to become popular in overseas markets this led to people accusing him of using malice Meer as a stepping stone and the scard in the band was it became clear that he could reach stardom on his own in 2021 a tblo shukan Buon published an article about the story of a married woman cheating on her husband with G according to the article the 35-year-old woman was a fan of G and she sent him a birthday message on Instagram G and her started talking and eventually they met in real life to have sex twice the woman’s husband accused G of shuttering their ordinary married life gek has not denied the story only saying that he wouldn’t do it if he knew she was married my personal theory is that the story is true but g wasn’t aware the woman was married and when the husband found out about it he thought they could use the situation to get money out of gek Woody har son and gek got along well on the set of buaku when the movie was screened at the Toronto International Film Festival fans couldn’t help but noticed Harrison’s eyes were drifting southwards each time he was standing near GED the platinum blonde hairstyle GED head in 1999 in the vanilla era is uncannily similar to The Final Fantasy 7 character Cloud remember when I mentioned the company releasing GED figures that were actually figures of squall well Squall is a character from Final Fantasy 8 that GED claims was modeled after him the designers of the game had not confirmed this and instead insisted that Squall is based on River Phoenix n [Music] people like to point out the visual similarities between G and kibutsuji muan from Demon Slayer G played into this when a video of him singing a cover of the song homura while dress as musan went live on his YouTube channel just after Halloween the video became a viral hit and G is now consistently on people’s list for actors to play muan in a live action adaptation for basically as long as he has been in the public eye G had conventionally pretty th but perhaps because he was serious about the career overseas or perhaps just because he wanted to he got too implants around the same time he got his F nose uh more on that later Young G had a tendency of getting off on the wrong foot with people and and sugizo is no exception when at an event where both G and sugizo were playing gek heard that someone from sugizo’s Camp had been mean to someone in his Camp G went to speak his mind leading to an argument in su’s dressing room years later when skin happened G was apprehensive because he thought that sugizo hated him he asked M he to mediate but he refused du to sigo being his senior and that would be awkward so when G went to meet Sugo himself it turned out that sugizo had brush off the incident and acted like it never [Music] happened this entrance refer to how the shape of G’s nose has been changing over the years his first nose is the one he had in M Meer when he started a solo career he got his second nose and he has his F no since 2006 one of G’s business ventures involved him buying a mountain in japanes alss and the skin Resort built on it multiple than club events have been organized there it decided that the resort business was not for him due to the seasonal nature and sold the resort before he immigrated to Malaysia in 2014 g stylized his artist name in all cops when he celebrated his 10th anniversary as a solo artist in 2009 some fans have a clear preference for the era that preceded it or the era that came after G and height are fans in real life but G statements about the other have long L fans to speculate that his feelings are of a romantic nature perhaps most famously Gat has said that he will marry height if he was a woman in June 2021 G and height performed on backto back dates at the same venue in Osaka G invited Heyde to have some tea but Heyde refused saying that he wanted to focus on his concert so I guess is playing hard to get people watching the Moon movies starting G and hide couldn’t have but noticed the homoerotic undertones in the relationship between the two characters I guess you can compare it to less St and Lou in Interview with the Vampire in 2012 G’s personal management agency was hit by T tax authorities as part of a larger investigation into the company that was managing his artist activities at the time officials visited gak’s home in Tokyo to take possession of documents and devices and the media wasted no time printing headlines calling G attex evader revealing the location of his home to the public in the meantime G was not allowed to say or explain anything while the investigation was ongoing but neither him nor his agency were found to have committed any crimes I have a question oh okay sure are you with the tax collector’s office or something do I look like a tax collector okay next yeah I’m not going to don’t worry that’s not the reason why I brought the cameras it’s okay okab saturo is assumed to be g’s old legal name it

ever shown can in fact be used to deduce the location unless you live in the neighborhood or were already familiar for heay so it is defense responsibility to refrain from going there even if they know the location [Music] in photos and videos taken in G’s house numerous tumblers containing who knows what kind of concussion are never far away G was born left-handed but was forcibly corrupted to

known as itomi Yumi while on a date when asked about the relationship during a press conference for his stage play G said that they hadn’t discuss whether they were officially a couple or not and he would ask her next time they were in bed [Music] [Music] this entry refers to a fanfic titled elegant Gothic Lolita murder that you can find on Archive of Our Own after a day of modeling Mana walks

together to play paintball G and junji sakuma did not meet on friendly basis after a paintball match with several bands they ended up fighting in the parking lot in 2006 Juni joined gek job as his

going on live the currency plummet as they all do living a lot of Biers feeling like they had been deceived and until this very day hold G Sol responsible for the debacle which is why the Valuta came to be known as gcoin a lot of cleaning up probably happened behind the scenes but the fact that gak never issued an official statement following the debacle means that tabloids keep turning out

metal two people that are into shiping y mellow d to F personality looks like the perfect fog and eord to g the document provided by Emmy doesn’t explain the context behind this entry and I wasn’t

to go and he responds with to your heart I mean that’s that’s pretty cute I think in 2013 a tabloid run an article detailing G’s alleged sexual assault of a woman working at a house bar two years before the woman had been trying to blackmail him and was looking for a tabloid that would run a story exposing him the story is largely dismissed by the industry and the police denies having received
