Model and singer Anna Tsuchiya, 25, who is currently seven months pregnant with her second child, appeared at the press conference this week for the launch of "Glamorous Mama - Utsukushiki 12 nin no Ai no Katachi" (The shape of love of 12 beautiful people), a photobook by Leslie Kee.
Tsuchiya stood for photos, displaying her round belly together with her mother and oldest son. Her baby is due on April 9, but Tsuchiya said she has been told by the doctor the child might be born earlier because, "it just keeps jumping around in there." The singer said the child, who she thinks will be a boy, "won't become 'herbivorous.' It's all in the genes.. the father is 'carnivorous' too."
Tsuchiya had her first child with her model husband, who passed away in May 2008, but the pair divorced in 2006. She announced last September she would marry a hair stylist three years her senior, but the pair have yet to register their marriage. Tsuchiya says they're "waiting for the right time."

The translation or article doesn't make it clear that "carnivore" and "herbivore" in describing a male in Japan means either "manly" or a "pussbag". At first glance you'd think she was talking about dietary preferences.

Good for you Anna!
bamboohat
Um, the dudes biological dad is a hairstylist. Chances of being a herbivore are high.
Laguna
Yeah, but maybe he's a hairstylist like The Zohan.
neverknow2
Maybe he's the only one. Ever.

This isn't really headline news,
bobbafett
the hell it is. its all in the way the mother treats and dresses the boy from birth. if he gets treated like a chihuahua, he is gonna bark like a chihuahua.
SpanishEyez37
Or the kid can grow up to be like that dude ''Hard Gay'' ( I think that was his name)
Lowly
dude hard gay was definitely carnivorous.

"pregnant with her second child"
"her mother and oldest son"
Isn't that her older son?
"the dude's biological dad is a hairstylist"
The "dude" is the older son? If that be the case, the dude's father was the model who died. Or the dude is the child in her belly? She may think the child is a dude, but she could be wrong!
I agree with bamboohat.

She should be happy as long as he's a locavore, and not someone who dines around town, so to speak.

"the dude's biological dad is a hairstylist"
then why the terrible hair color?
Jkanda

Sarge
I agree with bamboohat about the chances of male hairstylists being herbivores is high.

Who's Anna Tsuchiya?
Junichi
Play nice, boys.
cyclemate
Is it nature or is it nurture? DNA or training? Considering that the jury swings both ways, I say a new hair-do is in order.
dolphingirl

Udder flummery...

I could think of a lot of words to describe Anna, "glamorous" would not be one of them...
idiots
You all do not know the real nuance of "soushoku" in this case. It is not of a relation to style or hair. As many of the boys who have the popular hair style now and dress like "girly" as gaijin say, are VERY popular with REAL Japanese girl who are BEUTIFUL.
OssanAmerica
Hey you watch what you say about my wife.
InTheKnow
'glamorous'? Hell, no. Regarding that photo, this Anna is a woman? I'm not buying it. It's a guy with a terrible wig.
TokyoXtreme
If the dad disappears from the kid's life and buries himself in office "work" or Thai prostitutes, then mom will undoubtedly raise the boy to know nothing of manliness. Carnivore / herbivore... please leave the English to English speakers.

I like her smock. The finger-paint job she did on her hair, not so much.
