How you describe a rumour making celebrities widely known is how most
celebrities here go about keeping themselves famous. We think
that most of our stars are stupid or immoral. It is not important for
a celebrity to be respectable or seem pure anymore. I think it is a
sad state of affairs, but I also think that Japan goes a little overboard
on the other end of the spectrum. I feel that dishonorable behavior
should neither be glorified nor too harshly condemned. Because, not one
of us is perfect, and throwing stones at someone whose mistake was found
out is hypocritical and weak-minded.
For us, being on TV and in movies is the stars' work. It does help to
show how famous they are, because it means that the companies trust them
to bring in lots of money. But, it is the news stories and gossip that
keep them fresh in our minds, and keep people interested.
I think American guys are different from Japanese guys when they see
that a famous girl is dating. I don't know how a guys mind works (Do I
want to know??), but it seems like they think "Oh, then maybe I have a
chance, too!"
I have heard that there are some celebrities in Japan who are famous
only for being in TV ads. Would you say that's true?

I learn from music and dramas, and I learn a lot here. Also, I have
some books that teach Japanese.
I don't know what kind of certification is required to teach Japanese.
I think it depends on the school.
