I can't get over it myself, now I feel old. I remember Nari as being all gangly and scrawny from Stand up! and now he's 27 and producing fashion shows and cake rolls and showing up in the unlikeliest places.

But then again, when you have artists like Ayumi Hamasaki and Namie Amuro around ~ who look ageless in that special super genetics + a little help from the doctor way, obviously what hope do the rest of us mere mortals have.
