Re: Many Brothers are Waiting to Welcome Neo Gim Huah In Changi Hilton
They should release some of these endangered species for industry needs...
TOKYO - For a man carrying a nation's libido on his shoulders, Japanese porn king 'Shimiken' looks as fresh as a daisy.
The 35-year-old cult hero, described by one director as the "Cristiano Ronaldo of sex" and famed for his Herculean powers between the sheets, grins as he tells AFP: "It's a hard job, but somebody's got to do it."
Shimiken - real name Ken Shimizu - , has slept with more than 8,000 women for his 7,500 movies and recently caused a stir by begging for reinforcements, tweeting that there were more Bengali tigers alive than male porn actors in Japan.
"
We're an endangered species," he said in an interview. "
There are about 70 male actors to 10,000 women."
Shimiken's call to arms was retweeted thousands of times by fans worried Japan's US$20 billion (S$26.6 billion) "adult video" (AV) industry could be under threat.
"We're getting rarer and rarer, like pandas," said the celebrity lothario, who drives a vintage DeLorean sports car -- the time machine in "Back to the Future" -- and carries phallus-shaped business cards.
"It is boring for viewers to watch the same actors all the time. That's the biggest worry."
Looking a little like porn's answer to British punk rocker Johnny Rotten with his spiky orange hair, Shimiken insisted he has the staying power to keep on going, despite making an eye-popping two to three films in an average day.
