BoA to act in Hollywood movie

Korean singer BoA has been chosen as the main female character of a new Hollywood movie. According to the agency, BoA will be starring in a movie by Duane Adler, who had already gathered great attention with his dance movies. The dance movie this time will be set in New York, but the title has not been announced yet. The movie will also be produced by famous producer Robert W. Cort. Casting is still taking place for the main character and the rest of the cast. Filming will begin at the beginning of next year in the U.S.
BoA's agency also revealed that "BoA will probably be showing a dynamic dance performance." They also added: "We hope you are all anticipating the movie and the love story with the male character, as this is a new challenge to BoA, who has already debuted 10 years ago."
This month on the 5th, BoA will also be release her 6th Album "Hurricane Venus" in South Korea. (Music Japan+)

BoA doing well in Billboard charts

According to Billboard, the largest album and records sales ranking site, BoA's "ENERGETIC" has been ranked within the top 50 of the "Hot Dance/ Club Play Song" genre on May 22th. This is the twelth week that the song has ranked within the top 50 of that genre.


The Billboard "Hot Dance / Club Play Song" charts are referring to the title tracks, which have been playing throughout the US during the week in the various clubs. BoA's track "Eat You Up" had also been ranking within the top 50 for 14 consecutive weeks. However, the outstanding aspect about "ENERGETIC"'s ranking is that it has been one year since the release of the song. (Music Japan+)

Akanishi Jin and BoA get close

It seems like Akanishi Jin (25), the only KAT-TUN member not to join the band on its world tour, was getting up close with Korean superstar BoA (23) in a nightclub just two weeks ago on March 23rd.

Akanishi Jin, who was wearing a black coat, had been in the VIP section of a popular nightclub with Japanese pop star Crystal Kay, who was wearing a grey jacket. They were deep in conversation.

After 2AM, Korean superstar BoA was spotted next to him. She was wearing sexy clothes and had revealed thae tattoo that she has on her back (see below). BoA and Akanishi Jin were drinking cocktails and tequila respectively. Suddenly, Jin pulled BoA close to him in an embrace, but apparently they did not kiss. The three of them, Jin, BoA and Crystal Kay have been close friends for a while now.

Meanwhile, KAT-TUN has announced that it will release a new song without Akanishi. (Entame)

Grr my translation isn't good enough to understand almost half the article and Google is not helping! One of the reasons why although I like Jin's looks, I don't really like his character. :(
