I cannot begin to tell you how much people HATE that commercial in Japan. It's idiotic, and runs constantly on CNNj. I'd like to bitchslap each and every one of them, in the name of Jesus!
Just now Emmy kinda reminded me a Madhuri Dixit 0:06, I know that sounds crazy lol I don't even know why I said that, but she just does in this part ^_^ !!! and I also thouht she looked like Belle from "beauty and the beast" !!!!
I second that statement. She is a promising talent, if only she would be given the opportunity to show it. Hopefully, DARE will get a distributor. She is such a sweet person.
@duhustink Emmy is grand. This commercial isn't...which is actually the fault of the people who filmed it, not the actress in it. I thought it was supposed to be some kind of home video.
Why is everyone acting like this is such an odd thing? So many Americans have made Japanese ads. Jodie Foster, Meg Ryan, Leonardo DiCaprio, Brad Pitt, Gwyneth Paltrow, Michael J. Fox, Angelina Jolie, Harrison Ford, Richard Gere, and many many others have done it.
They usually get paid a fortune, much more than they would in the US for them, and for the most part they aren't seen outside of Asia. This isn't a new concept. The whole plot of Lost in Translation is based on it for the love of god.
She does have a DB movie coming up and refusing offers from japanese companies might disrespect them. Give the poor gal a break after all she's been through making the commercial. Its not like she has a choice.
Yes, she is a good singer, just not an opera singer:) (But some opera singers do sing in POTO, like Rebecca Caine) Many stars do go on oversea commercials, such as Angelina Jolie or Gwyneth Paltrow. Although Emmy's status is not as big as theirs. I do think the commercial's silly, but I found other japanese commercials quite silly as well. (Maybe Japanese will think American commercials are silly...who knows) Perhaps Emmy's trying to get her face more known in Japan before Dragonball comes out?
Actually she used to do opera when she was 7-11 years old. She because proficient and performed with Metropolitan Opera at 7. She has the opera skills and I like her voice better than sarah brightman because it's lighter and less nasally.
@BJTDancer: Being in a kid's chorus at the age of 7-11 hardly qualifies as operatically trained! She was inadequate for Phantom. The vast majority of Phans believe that.
@LerouxsPhantom You are either talking about the wrong person or you have no taste in music whatsoever. She was a pro by the time she was 11. I hope for your sake you're just uninformed("a kid's chorus"??? The MET? Really...."a kid's chorus".....) Do yourself a favor and listen to some of her music. Start with "Slow Me Down".
@alwmusicful: Um, Emmy herself frequently mentions in inteviews that she wthe MET's kid's chorus between ages 7 and 12. All she had to do to get in was sing Happy Birthday! And yes, I've heard Slow Me Down. So what? It's a pop song. Not classical and certainly not operatic.
@LerouxsPhantom Check out her Wiki page - she sang Happy Birthday in 12 different keys and was then invited to join the Children's Chorus at 7. Do you think she would have been allowed to sing with Luciano Pavarotti and Placido Domingo if she didn't have the talent to do so? Before you dismiss her Wiki page because it's Wiki, it's also heavily footnoted with sources.
@alwmusicful: And don't you think she may have progressed onto being a real opera singer if she had the talent to do so? Or onto Broadway, especially after the Phantom movie (for which her performance got bad reviews for inadequate singing & wooden acting).
@LerouxsPhantom I believe she had/has the talent - I don't think it interested her. She's more of an actress. Just my opinion, mind you. You have to admit that not all her reviews were bad, wouldn't you? She was also nominated for a Golden Globe as Best Actress in a Musical or Comedy for her "wooden" acting. Our opinions just differ - no worries.
@BJTDancer Actually, her skills are more like those of a choir girl than those of a soloist. She has a nice classical voice and definitely a good background in voice. I wouldn't exactly call it opera skills though. She could never play Carlotta, for example, whereas any actual soprano opera singer would be able to. Oh, and by the way, if you're really into PTO look up the Think of Me sung in Korean. That was the best I've heard it done.
@freshpinescents I actually agree with that. As much as I'm in love with Emmy Rossum [from her singing voice to her personality--or what we see of it], she didn't strike me as an opera singer even when she played Christine. She came off as quite weak; safe, feather-weight. Although her voice was appeasing, it wasn't strong enough or skilled enough to play Christine's part...given the opera-standards of this character. Outside of the opera house, I prefer her "Enya" way of singing.
well that was a bit odd! She is so pretty
