44. translation: preview for matsumoto jun in "cut," 12.2008

[sociologique.livejournal.com]

Mah homegurl agentduckiechan hooked it up with scans of Jun's interview from the December 2008 issue of "CUT" and I had to start translating it. Here's the behind the scenes comments about it. If you haven't seen it, um... you're missing out. Like, for real. I... my brain, how does it work. Can't think. Can't breathe. Stupid sexy Jun.

Behind the Scenes
(Cover Story) Matsumoto Jun

For CUT's first special sexy man shoot, we thought, wouldn't it be fun if we did a photo story with Matsumoto Jun-san?

Matsumoto-san arrived right on time to the photoshoot location and asked "so what should I do today?" "Like, using a blindfold, putting fruit in your mouth, tying up your hands, that kinda thing. Whaaaaat do you think?" and the explanation had him flustered. It's definitely different from a normal photoshoot, so he was nervous. All that had been decided was the title of "Secrets Unfolding One Night in a Hotel Room," and we started the shoot. Matsumoto-san and everyone on the staff threw out their various ideas and we did the dazzling shoot.

But Matsumoto-san -- with his professionalism -- checked over everything and approved. Although he couldn't help but be nervous, the moment he got in front of the camera, he did exactly what we asked. It makes sense since he was bound, blindfolded, and submerged in the bathtub, right? Even though he asked, "isn't it kind of erotic? Is this cool? (laughs)" and unwillingly went along with our shoot, the shots are really pretty stylish, don't you think? By the way, the photo on this page is an off-shot. We thought it was a little too sexy, so that size of it is just about right, don't you think? (Ueda Tomoko)

ILU for posting this so quickly although it took me like months to scan this - sorry it was so hard to find time!!! It would've been awkward to explain to parents why I'm scanning a magazine featuring a Japanese guy tied up with his shirt open hahaha Stupid sexy Jun! hahahaha.

And yeah, that reaction is so Jun <3

It's from the interview on the very last page. In a tiny size. Because the editors want to torture us.

karasu_0 posted a bigger size (http://i31.tinypic.com/2nhdt2t.jpg), but as for the page, no; my friend scanned it in a pdf instead of jpgs. Everything but that page was scanned back in the day by yuckie-chan at arashi_yuuki, though ♥
