JPop Star Diet

Wanna know what a J-pop star eats? Well, here's an article that presents a few days of the diet of Japanese mega pop star Utada Hikaru, who was in the U.S. to promote her new album, This is the One.

Japanese Pop Star Utada Ponders Giant Sandwiches and Lobster Crackers

Love Utada (not any of the American stuff she's done so far, though), but jeebus she drinks a lot. I guess that's how I'd live if I could get away with it, but it seems like wine at every dinner.

Wine is big in Japan

I noticed that she mentions lots of wine with her meals, too. But wine is big in Japan. Did you notice how she knows how to pair the wines with her meals? Grilled swordfish with chardonnay. Spanish tapa dishes with shiraz. I wonder what she had with the 1998 Dom Perignon? Champagne matches anything but the best combo is with sushi, IMHO.

Anyway, life as a star has its perks...."I missed my flight, oh crap. Oh, well." If I missed a business flight, I could be fired.

Note to Moderator: Thanks for moving this thread. I thought of deleting it from the food section this morning and reposting it on the Hikaru thread this morning but didn't have time. Chit Chat is fine--didn't think of it.

Uh oh, what a surprise! That's why they look so skinny.

I'd be drinking more wine then eating.
....not that I am an alcoholic or anything...
