#517 Grumpy and Famous: Japanese actress Sawajiri Erika

[aandresz]

what happened to the Erika that was in 1 litre of tears :( LOLS

[Ladydreamer031084]

still love sawajiri erika!!!

[kierajay]

Of course she was famous before this incident. Have u ever watched "1 Litre of tears"? Im cryin just thinkin about that series. That is probably wat launched her to stardom

[blingglinggirl]

a clown..hahahahhahaha..lolzz

but she looks so different from how she looked in 1 litres of tears man!! i dunno why it sorta broke my heart!lov u aya!! aya not erika!

[kniyteryder]

look my thoughts is she was on her menstration. all girls go through that so thats excusable.

[SmilingAngel93]

You spelled her name wrong, it's "Erika" not "Erica" -_-;;;

Geez, if people don't know anything about Erika, they shouldn't be so ignorant and make such a miserable, poor excuses of a show

Total waste of time...

[thedailyenglishshow]

Thank you, SmilingAngel93, for so kindly pointing out the mistake - I've changed the title. BTW, *excuse*.

[nutwow]

was she very famous b4 this?

certainly she is. just tat ppl there dun watch overseas master piece. can they even point out where is japan from the map?

[designerkitten]

actually, i only found out about erika prior to the event. i know a lot of other people did too.

[syshe08]

i love the stick figures..xD

[deepwell]

hm... i dnt know what to say LOL.

i though she COULD be famous before of that incident bcoz of 1 Litre of tears... i was so shocked about the QA portion LOL.

& shes always like that? hm.

IDK too...

BUT whether or not its true...

i do admire her with her abilities & talents. :)

[teddybears06]

erikas dad died recently.

[yazkaz]

WRONG!

Is 2001 "recently?"

Stomach cancer BTW...

[d23t]

Erika's dad died long before she started her acting careers

[KarDWeng]

ya, teddy is such a noob.

[KarDWeng]

I like her style, it's right to have personalities(that makes her even cute).wow, even canada talk about this rumor. whish you all the best, Erika. keep it up, I always love you!

[yanims]

how come there is a show in canada talking about erika? wow it must be she is very famous or the rumor is very hot

[jaysato]

shes like the lindsay lohan of japan. both bitches. they think they can do whatever the fuck they want...

[d23t]

you can't say that if they are really are one you still have to show them respect. Singers, Models, Actors and Actress are all human . They fall, they have feeling, just like we do so please show some respect even you don't like her as much

[yongsul]

no ..sawajiri is not a bitch u ass !

[stariella]

i highly doubt she did it so she could increase her popularity. she ALWAYS has had a personality problem. there'd been loads of news bout her and her personality. this act at the premiere is just one of them. i don't blame her though. it's just the way she is. i just felt it was unprofessional for her not being to control her behavior.

[yazkaz]

Nah. Don't bother wasting time on this Pute.

Just ERASE Her.

[thedailyenglishshow]

Yeah, after watching more videos about her, I realised I have actually seen her in a movie: パッチギ！　(Pachigi!). I thought she was pretty good.

[yukikoMIN]

whr to watch pachigi! ? !

[thatamericangirl]

Isn't the Hollywood mantra "Any publicity is good publicity"? Apparently, this is true for Sawajiri Erica! If only I could get fame and fortune for being crabby. I'd be a household name by now. ;)

That last student you interviewed seemed really nervous! Maybe you can make a show about her, and she'll be famous, too!

[thatamericangirl]

I got nosey and looked for any videos of the press conference on YouTube. "Unprofessional" is right -- she acted more like an angsty 14 year old than an adult. She made it very clear that she didn't want to be there. Maybe something bad happened in her personal life, but she should have at least smiled for the photo shoot afterwards. If this was a planned gimmick, though, it was a brilliant idea. How could you NOT comment?

[wowJhil]

Maybe it was a promotion trick?

[wowJhil]

I think you should have alternatives more close to each other. For instance: because she was jumping, instead of being grumpy :)

[minoru1325]

Erica talks about herself,"I am PERFORMER."

Her favorite is LED ZEPPELIN.

Erika*

I was excited to see Takeuchi Yuko next to Erica (if I have it right, I'm just starting to learn my Japanese actors and actresses). She seemed to handle the situation well.

I just saw Pride a couple of weeks ago. It took me forever to watch the show. I had to pause after every sentence to read the subtitles and they spoke so fast! By the end of the first DVD I was hooked. Neat show and fun actors.

Have a great day!
