In order to help the victims of Friday's earthquake and the following tsunami, X-JAPAN's Yoshiki and Gackt Camui have both started relief efforts
GACKT has organized an emergency charity, “SHOW YOUR HEART“, to raise disaster relief funds for the 2011 Japanese earthquake.
As the representative for “SHOW YOUR HEART”, GACKT stated,
“We decided to organize the charity as it was something that even we could start [in order to help]. We want everyone to lend us their strength. Although individuals may not be able to do much, if everyone works together, it becomes a lot of power. In this sort of time, we need to have the courage to lend a helping hand.”
On the “SHOW YOUR HEART” official webpage, many celebrities, including Shinya (from LUNA SEA),Fujiwara Norika, DAIGO (from BREAKERZ), and Haruna Ai, have left supportive messages.
Yoshiki will be auctioning off his famous crystal piano.
The “crystal piano” has YOSHIKI’s logo engraved on it and according to experts, “is a priceless item.” His “crystal piano” often accompanies the star during their concerts all over the world. The entire sum raised from the auction will be given to disaster relief organizations, although detailed information will follow at a later date. The musician has also expressed an intent to collect disaster relief donations through his foundation, YOSHIKI FOUNDATION AMERICA.
