<🇯🇵🇺🇸Japan Parade on Saturday, May 10th‼️>

NYC Central Park West will become "Japan" again this year!

In New York, where a wide variety of people have built history,

There is no Little Tokyo or official Japanese town in New York.

Until now, there has never been a parade that could express "Japan."

Under the overall direction of the Japanese Ambassador and Consulate General in NY, Japanese companies, Japanese people in the U.S., Americans who love Japan, etc. are joining forces to create a colorful parade filled with a variety of old and new Japanese culture. The 4th Japan Parade, the first official parade in New York City, will be held on May 10th❗️

Among them
I have been singing as part of the New York community for 28 years since 1997, and I organize the Harlem Japanese Gospel Choir.
For the fourth year in a row, we will be riding on a precious float and singing gospel songs in the parade!

A day to promote Japan, introduce traditional Japanese culture, new pop culture, technology and food, demonstrate exchange between Japan and the US, and express gratitude to New York.

If you're in NY on May 10th, please join us in celebrating Japan in NY!

<Chanel fashion show on the New York subway>

New York's Subway is used by 6 million people a day.

Last night, a Chanel fashion show was held at the subway station.

(Please see the three photos below)

New Chanel brand ambassadors include hip-hop stars A$AP (Rihanna's husband) and Bon Jovi.

Many fashionable celebrities came to see it.

The show, with its unique ideas that are so typical of New York, became a hot topic.


At NY Subway, you're never surprised no matter what happens right in front of you.

Not to mention the wide variety of subway performers,

He dramatically proposed to a packed crowd of passengers.

They even held wedding ceremonies in the vehicles.

They start cooking on the train while it's moving and serve it to passengers.

Keanu Reeves was sitting next to me...


One of the charms of New York is that such unreality occurs in the subway, where it is most real.

Please come visit New York and experience some happy happenings⭐︎
