The trend that is coming back to Japan is the Long Breath Diet. Long Breath? Diet? In the same term? How does that work?

Made popular by a popular Japanese actor Miki Ryosuke, this fad claims that by breathing deeply for about 2-5 minutes a day, you are able to lose weight. Some people have stated that they’ve lost as much as 5 kg in one month and more! Initially Miki Ryosuke started with the breathing exercise as a way to ease the back pain that he experienced while walking.

So what is the logic behind this? According to Jil Johnson, creator of the Oxycise weight loss programme, 'Fat is made up of oxygen, carbon and hydrogen, when the oxygen we breathe reaches these fat molecules, it breaks them down into carbon dioxide and water. The blood then picks up the carbon dioxide - a waste product of our bodies - and returns it to the lungs to be exhaled. Therefore the more oxygen our bodies use, the more fat we will burn.'What are the benefits you ask? The Long Breath does not only help

It’s not really uncommon anymore to find people that have a doll sized caricature model of themselves these days, as there are stalls that sells these things and are definitely a hit for couples. However, with the advent of 3D printing and finding ways to make it more affordable, a company in Akihabara (the land of weird) in Tokyo, Japan, aptly named Clone Factory has come up with the technology to recreate your favourite moment. First featured in Danny Choo’s Culture Japan, these clones came back in the spotlight again recently as they were featured in the Japanese media to be the new trendy thing to own by Japanese ladies.

Cleverly named Jibunnsan (which means Me in Japanese, to get your hands on your own version of mini-me, all you have to do is to book in advance and so that they can set it up for you, and the process is pretty swift. Just make sure

We're sorry for the delay Jaywalkerz and Mizz Nina fans but we've finally narrowed it down and are ready to announce the winners.

We do however, have some bad and good news...firstly, the bad news is, there now won't be a Meet & Greet with the artists due to their busy schedules. Jay Park only has a short slot for rehearsals on the day of the concert and simply won't have time to attend the Meet & Greet. We're totally bummed about it too :(

The GOOD news is, to make it up to you, the winners, we've decided to give away not just one concert ticket but the top 4 winners will get 2 pairs of tickets each! So you get to bring 3 friends to Mizz Nina's concert! Also, since we received so many good entries, we've decided on 4 consolation winners who will get 1 pair of tickets each!

Then, so you can enjoy the show better, all 8 winners will have side stage access so you can watch the show from the best view possible! Here's the list of our TOP 4 winners and their 'rap lines' that got them

By 9.30 am , just 15 minutes before tickets went on sale, there were already more than a 1000 fans in the queue that stretched beyond the building entrance and snaked round the block!

The first person in the queue was Sky, a fan who was also the first person in the queue when Bigbang concert tickets went on sale last year. Her commitment to purchasing her VIP tickets was so strong that she had travelled from outside of KL to camp out at the queue  from Wednesday, 8th May, 3 days before tickets went on sale !

Sky wasn't the only fan that proved her fandom for GD as most of the first few in line had camped out for 1-2 nights before to purchase their VIP tickets. Some of the fans were even offered large sums of money to purchase tickets for queue jumpers on the morning of ticket sales. The queue jumpers however, were turned down as many fans had become friends

It has been a busy month of April for our favourite muscle man, Jay Park. After a long silence of barely any updates on twitter, facebook and other social networking sites that he on, he is back with a vengeance. In this past two weeks alone, two music videos were unleashed much to the delight of his Jwalkerz.

His new single album contains three new songs, that has all the genre and Jay is known for – Hip Hop, R&B and Pop. The first of the videos to be released was a hip hop collaboration with Dok2 from Illionaire. titled 1HUNNIT (a slang for one hundred). With a sound similar to the stuff that was included in the Asia promos exclusive “Red” version of A New Breed album, hip-hop connoisseurs will definitely approve of the song and this simple music video that had Jay thanking his B-boy crew, Prepix and Korean Assasins.
