The International Invasion of Yamapi (Yamashita Tomohisa)

Did you guys know about the great news? Our one and only Yamashita Tomohisa landed finally on the 21st century and finally launching instagram account. What amazes me about this news is that he launched his instagram last May 16 and in May 19, he already gained 2M Followers! By the time I'm writing this, he already has 2.5m. Just wow! 

I prefer to think that Johnny's tactics in making the international fans long for Yamapi is effective. But it only proves how prestige Yamashita Tomohisa is. Seriously when you hear or search for his name he's like one of, if not, the biggest star you'll come across the Jdorama scene. 

As for me I have known Yamapi first when I've encountered NEWS group in the so called Music Station. By then, I've known his name and partly his entertainment career. And of course being friends with other bachelors/singers/actors like Ikuta Toma, Nishikido Ryo, Matsumoto Jun and more helped to popularize his name even more. It's a good thing these boys share the same entertainment agency as well. 

Also due to his huge popularity, there's this hearsay that Yamapi is the next Takuya Kimura. And did you know that Yamapi is now the second person on instagram to gain 1M follower with a record of 7 hours and 40 minutes! Second to joint account of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.


What I love about his account is that he's posting with English captions as well. Which is very amazing considering that a lot of Japanese people are having difficulty in English language. Also I'll applaud how considerate he is to study English language to be understood easily by his international fans. Here comes Yamapi's invasion!


And what's even more shocking is that, he's friends with Will Smith! 

I'm looking forward for more of his posts in the future.
