Taiwanese-Japanese actor Takeshi Kaneshiro is not the least
bothered by netizens’ comments on his “aging looks” after his
recent photos were published.
“Rather than
spending time and money to earn compliments for my appearance, why
not spend that effort on contributing to the society?” said Takeshi
in response to recent reports on his looks.
Nailing an airline endorsement deal reportedly worth NT$30 million
(approximately S$1.26 million), Takeshi recently travelled to Japan
and France where the commercial was shot at. The actor returned to
Taiwan last month and wrapped things up with a final scene in the
picturesque Taitung County.
In the final scene, Takeshi was seen riding a bicycle through the
fields. The actor was said to be in such good spirits that he
continued riding the bicycle even after the director was satisfied
with the take.
As it was his first visit to Taitung, the 39-year-old also grabbed
the opportunity to visit the local restaurants with the crew to
indulge in the county’s specialty dishes.
