Japanese rock star looks like girl but is a teen boy.  That’s interesting don’t you think?

Yohio, not a girl

Here are some facts, i have discovered in the web.

Yohio , a 16 years old swedish boy turned singer dresses like a japanese doll but he is not even a japanese and he is not a girl but a boy.

• Yohio is a 16-year-old singer who dresses like a doll
• Has developed a cult following in Japan
• He looks like a girl but sings like a man – in Japanese

Describing himself as a “bishonen” – a Japanese word meaning “beautiful youth (boy)”, he  was proud of  his doll-like features and no wonder many japanese teenage girl  adore him.

Although, the fact that he was a western, his love for japanese was born when he was introduced to anime at the age of 10 and since then, he loved to dress like one.  That’s the same reason why he was so fluent in japanese language and was able to sing  japanese song well.

He started in the Swedish Visual Kei band called Seremedy  and he was discovered and signed to Universal Music Japan and the rest is history.
