Unless you're really keen on Japanese rock music, the name Gackt might not mean that much to you, but take it from us — he's a big name in his own country.
Gackt — real name Kamui Gakuto — found fame as a member of the band Malice Mizer, and since going it alone has gained the male soloist record for most top ten consecutive singles in Japanese music history. Recently, he has embarked on a successful career as an actor.
He's also the kind of guy who likes to play old video games in front of his flashy sports car, as you can see from the footage below.

Nothing like a little R&R with some Rockman 2.
I just **cannot** believe this guy is over 40! It's like he doesn't age...
I was disappoint that he didn't talk much : He just seems...different from before.
Look up his old appearances, they're a lot better than this.
@neumaus Just look at Sakurai Hes over 40 too. There must be something in the water over there
And yay for some more MegaMan love
I have always called Gackt the Japanese David Bowie
@Tsurii897 Sakurai is 53 what in the world are you talking about? Hell look at Miyamoto and Iwata. Both are approaching there 60's and look as spry as mid 40's.
@Einherjar Have you seen a picture from when he was younger? Like he reversed their song adding processes. Wish I knew their secret well besides their amazing health regiments.
Wow this dude looks 20ish!
Somebody make a Bujingai sequel!
Malice mizer is one of my most favourite bands EVER. This articke just reminded me of that
I love it when Gackt is in gaming commercials. It makes him seem more like a regular guy XD
@Einherjar Nah. It must be the rice. If you eat plenty of it then you won't get any gray hairs.
On the road, Playing Mega Man 2.
Why does the kid remind me of John Connor...?
He seems very arrogant and smarmy, and not just because he's wearing sunglasses indoors.
He's rich and he wants you to know that he's rich.
Dang, he looks like he's in his late-teens to early-twenties.
Western diet vs. Asian diet.
Eat less meat and processed crap, age a lot more slowly.
The real question... do you guys think he can beat Glass Joe?
@Stumpynuts Lol, afraid not, I eat a lot of processed Western crap, am in my mid 30s and still get called out for being in my late teens or early twenties. It's all in the genetics, my mum was the same.
Gackt is actually HUGE in Japan and not only does a lot of music for some of the biggest kids shows such as Sentai & Kamen Rider... but also guest stars in them, I think he was in one of the Kamen Rider movies. Weirder still, is there is a Kamen Rider Decade version of Megaman... featuring Gackt's music... I LP'd it on my YouTube channel last year!
This is like watching my mom playing Mega Man 2.
My life is fullfilled. Maybe.
