Maomi Yuuki guest of honor at Best Kisser awards

so weird from her !!!!!!!!!! but it is still an openion

Wow you all get so sensitive with Sharpies suggestion

but if you ever come to Australia you will see people have bumper stickers on their cars and its said all the time

"if you dont like it then leave".

sharpie -- good advice. Did just that. And it makes me realize just how silly Japan is and what how much someone has to lower/dumb down their intellect to enjoy life there. But, sharpie, from your posts, that sounds like a perfect environment for you. By the way, what is "sop"? And someone using the word childish to defend this kind of third-grade thinking is amuzing to say the least?

Herefornow, whats with the hardcore comment? I dont completely disagree with your comment, but chill out a little, I dont think the 'best kisser awards' are something to be taken so seriously lol

I bought a drink tonight that had silicon replicas of her lips attached. kind of nuts if you ask me

Kiss what?

OK, how do they pick the judges?

Maomi is gorgeous.

@herefornow. well said!!

@cleo: what if they like to have it more (from unknown person of course!)?

“We sort of bumped into each other and it was like, ‘Oh, we kissed,’” she recalled.

My, the erudition of this woman.

She went on to describe her favorite kind of kisses as, “Not those in which a man has contrived a situation, but those moments in which he approaches directly and without artifice.”

Why do I find it hard to believe that she said this?

How was she judged to be the best kisser? Did she have to be tongued by a panel of experts? If so, when will she be awarded Best Herpist?

so who won the special tongueist award, a sub-category of best kissist ?

J-bashing? Isn't this more about bashing J-media?

I am all for anti-J media in its mediocrity and childishness.

j bashers like herefornow love japan today, they cant get enough of it.

How do they get to decide this?

oh oh oh Japan is so dumb. Entertainment is dumb blah blah blah. There's so much cool stuff going on here but yall wouldn't even know how to find it.

@cleo

This is one of the few time i am on your side!!

i like what your said: Save your kisses for your loved ones. They're not like candy, to be handed out free to all and sundry.

Save your kisses for your loved ones. They're not like candy, to be handed out free to all and sundry.

Dead right, Cleo!

If everyone had to 'go' when they find a thing they dislike, countries would be empty.

So where would we all be? Floating in the ocean? What if we didn't like that, either?

Kissing is so important when it comes to getting to know someone,

No it isn't! No need to kiss anyone you don't know. Save your kisses for your loved ones. They're not like candy, to be handed out free to all and sundry.

Sharpie,

herefornow, quit with your j-bashing, its just sop childish. you know what they say, if you dont like, go.

I agree that the Japanese media spends far too much time & money on fads, on trends, on unimportant or useless facets of life.

Herefornow,

If you don't like the Japanese media, you should stay away from sites especially like Japan Today who frequently post meaningless tripe.

Also, these 'awards' are usually from magazines and the like, and are a part of 'entertainment culture'... most Japanese people don't even care about them.... saying there is 'no intelligent life left in Japan' is just ridiculous.

As there is no photo posted, I highly recommend any interested parties do an internet search on her...

@herefornow.

well said!!

This article is so tongue in cheek.

Best kissist?

Yesterdays news and where is the photo.

The number of ridiculous 'competitions' they have here is astounding. I take it this award describes the best on-screen kisser? Although I can picture some crazy game-show here where girls have to kiss as many guys as possible and they describe who was best. :)

herefornow, quit with your j-bashing, its just sop childish. you know what they say, if you dont like, go.

Can someone please put an end to this "bestist" insanity? Is there no intelligent life left in Japan?

They have awards for everything here? again no pictures JT, you disappoint me. More pics please.

There was a best kisser competition??! Why did no-one tell me??!!!

Benefits of kissing : good romance - good health - good economy - good society (crime free) etc....!

Passive and effeminate but do not kiss? Weird
