"Shake It Up" Dance Cover

Hello! One of the members of DreamCatchers, Pat, decided to do a dance cover of Kis-My-Ft2's "Shake It Up" during her semestral break. It's a solo project of hers so she did everything from the choreography (though she did use the same steps as the original version) up to the video editing. Of course she did ask help from other members of DreamCatchers as she can't dance and hold the camera at the same time!

Anyway, I sent Pat some questions via e-mail regarding her dance cover and here are her answers:

Introducing: Kirei Ningyou

As I’ve said in my previous entries, I will be featuring cover groups a lot. But before all that will be the introduction posts for each cover group. You’ve seen the introduction post of KIS-MY-BOYS and DreamCatchers and now it will be Kirei Ningyou’s turn.

Kirei Ningyou is an all-girl cover group that is giving tribute to one of the most famous filr trio in Japanese entertainment industry, Perfume.

A little background on Perfume: They are an all-girl trio in Japan. The three members: Yuka Kashino (Kashiyuka), Ayano Omoto (Nocchi), and Ayaka Nishiwaki (A-chan) all came from Hiroshima.

Kirei Ningyou had their first major performance last March 11, 2012 at the Jpop Hrand Festival. Kirei Ningyou started to perform as their group now during the Jpop Dance Cover competition and over 15 contestants they won as champion.

“We were really glad we won since there is only one group recognized as winner. The feeling before and after the performance was extreme since WE COVERED A GROUP without FANS in the VENUE. I mean we do not know any PERFUME FAN in the VENUE aside from some of our friends. And those people who supported us, are our J.E. fan friends. We are actually fans of Johnny's Entertainment talent, which includes ARASHI and NEWS. Before we actually cover Arashi in the JPOP KICK OFF FESTIVAL last NOVEMBER 2011 we also won the event as JPOP DANCE COVER WINNER.” ---Kirei Ningyou

Past performances include:

The Grand Pop Culture Fair

Asian Pop Expo 2012

Introduction of the individual members:

Introducing: KIS-MY-BOYS

KIS-MY-BOYS is a cover group giving tribute to KIS-MY-FT2.

A little background on KIS-MY-FT2 or as they are also known as Kisumai:

Kisumai is a 7-member Japanese boy band. Their name KIS-MY-FT2 is taken from the names of the 7 members: KItayama Hiromitsu, Senga Kento, Miyata Toshiya, Yokoo Watru, Fujigaya Taisuke, Tamamori Yuta, and NIkaido Takashi (the NI became 2 as the Japanese translation of 2/two is ni).

KIS-MY-BOYS’ friendship started through KISUMAI and their bond is made stronger by their common interest in the Japanese Pop (J-pop) Culture. In Manila, KIS-MY-BOYS is the first all-boy J-pop cover group. KIS-MY-BOYS promotes passion for J-pop and love for J-Pop artists.

The group, KIS-MY-BOYS, was launched last July 7, 2012. They are affiliated with: Kisumai Philippines, Kisumai Malaysia & World Fan Club. And the group won an award During the J-Pop Music Fest Dance Cover Contest where they won 1^st place.

Their past performances include:

J-Pop Music Festival that was held at SM Megamall Cinema 10 last July 7, 2012

Asian Pop Expo that was held at Elements, Centris last September 2012

JE Day: KIS-MY-FT2 & NewS Ph Releases that was held at Astrovision, Trinoma last October 27, 2012

KIS-MY-BOYS (Cover Group)

Here's a picture of the first cover group I'm going to feature in this blog. They're known as KIS-MY-BOYS. I got the chance to watch them Perform live last October 27, 2012 during the JE DAY: BEST & FIRSt News and Kis-My-Ft2 Album Launch held at TriNoma.

I asked them a few questions for the introduction post and they all answered those questions individually. I'm working on the material I have right now and will be posting it soon.

If anyone would notice what I post here is almost the same as the one posted in this blog: Random!. That's because I'm the same maintainer of that blog if you check here: My other pages.
