Gackt - who?!?
Oh.  My.  Gackt...

Gackt is one of Japan's foremost musical artists, a distinction well-earned given his eclectic and evolutionary musical style.  From his very first band Cains:Feel in the early 1990s to his stint as vocalist for the iconic visual kei group Malice Mizer to his current status as both soloist and vocalist for the revolutionary band S.K.I.N., he has appealed to fans all over the globe.

Here are some basics on the man who has touched our hearts so keenly:

Name: Gackt MS Camui (it's a stage name, obviously.  Gackt is pronounced as "ga-ku-to" and means the greatness of music); real name rumored to be Satoru Okabe

Birthdate:  04 July.  Prior to The Sixth Day and Seventh Night concert, he gave the date out as 1540 and claimed that he was a vampire.  The introductory movie for SD/SN, however, finally gave the truth: he was born in 1973.

Birthplace: Okinawa

Grew Up In: Kyoto

Currently Lives In: Tokyo

Civil Status:
Divorced

Family:  His father was a jazz musician and his mother a beautician and costume designer.  (FYI: his mother is part-French.)  Has an older sister (divorced with one son; both currently live with him) and a younger brother.

Appearance:  5'11" and rather slender and pale.  His hair has been a number of colors but is naturally black.  Wears a variety of colored contact lenses, but his eyes are brown; more accurately; a rather deep shade of maroon.

Languages:  Japanese [obviously! ]; relative fluency in French, English, Mandarin, and Korean.  Passing fair Cantonese and planning to study Italian and Spanish.

Musical Instruments:  Piano, drums, tuba (stopped by parents as he was ruining his teeth), bass guitar, violin (not as good as YOU-kun, though), and flute
