The pretty Japanese girl above, Yohio, is actually a 16 year old Swedish boy who is signed to Universal Muaic Japan and already hs a cult following among Japanese teenage girls. Though his sound is not what you might expect - he sings like a boy and plays slashing rock guitar.
Describing himself as a "bishonen" - a Japanese word meaning "beautiful youth (boy)", Yohio prides himself on his doll-like features.
According to his blog on Japanese social networking site AMEBA, the Swedish teen became interested in Japanese culture when he was introduced to Anime at the age of ten.
He then developed an interest in learning the language, and started reading Japanese blogs and following Japanese celebrities on Twitter.
After starting a Swedish Visual Kei band called Seremedy he was signed to Universal Music Japan and quickly developed a cult following because of his beauty.
Check out the first single from his album.
