           Just an English lesson? lol

There is some interesting development regarding the new girlfriend of Yamashita Tomohisa.
 

After learning that the foreign girl he seems to be dating is a French woman, the tabloid Tokyo Sports has now found out that she is also his sister, Yamashita Rina’s (23) English teacher.

A friend of Yamashita Tomohisa revealed this interesting little tidbit, which tells us a lot about how he got to meet her in the first place. He is living together with his family at a large apartment and thus it was inevitable for him to get to know his sister’s English teacher.

“She was supposed to teach Rina English, but he often joined their private lessons in order to improve his English as well. This is the main reason why he has gotten so much better within just half a year. At the same time she must have become more than just a teacher to him…” the friend explained

If what his friend is saying is true, then Rina must have been just as surprised about their relationship as us. While she might have already grasped the situation, since it’s impossible to keep such a secret from your siblings, it probably was only after the articles and pictures in the tabloids that she fully realized what was going on between her brother and her teacher.

The pictures we have seen so far clearly show a certain degree of intimacy that could hint at more than just friendship between Yamashita and the French woman, but his agency Johnny’s keeps on denying that there is anything going on between them. They commented, “She is a friend who taught him English. There is absolutely no further relationship beyond that.”

This rumour is getting crazier and funnier at the same time... it's not impossible but a french woman is teaching him English.... and the sister would have only known about the 'relationship' from tabloid etc, yet this 'friend' seem to know so much?! XD

Why wouldn't a french woman be able to teach someone English? o.O

From: [identity profile] shiro-renja.livejournal.com
because maybe she speaks english too?
I'm french (first language) but I taught English in Japan aswell (second language)...so it is very possible that she (and anyone else for that matter) can speak 2 languages at once. The fact they say she is French, is probably refeering to where she is from rather then the languages she can speak.

and on a side note, they do take just about anyone who can speak english to teach it in Japan, they aren't that picky.

I meant this -> "it's not impossible but a french woman is teaching him English", qoute from the article. If you read my message again, I wrote "why wouldn't", not "why would".

I know very well that it is possible to speak and teach more than one language -_- My first language is Swedish...

I get a feeling that they do take just about anyone WHO'S NOT ASIAN who can speak English to teach it in Japan. :( I'm Asian and I feel like my chances are that much slimmer even though I've spent most of my life in Canada.

I don't think that should be an issue for you, actually. My British born Chinese friend managed to get a job teaching English in Japan, no problem! So you should be fine ^-^

I was wondering the same too. I know english too but If I was there to teach some language that would be my native one... lol.. and if you take a look at Rina's TW and see Tomo's lyrics you can see that
a) The teacher is not good enough
b) They're not learning anything lol

that's the truth♪ lol

I love Yamapi but I have to be honest... lol

(well I dont really care T.T who they date /slash wrists.)

but my first thoughts about the 'blonde' women
(or I think that's what I read in the last post?)
was, 'OMG he stole Tegohi's g/f!?' (haha)

Seems plausible. Very interesting relationship. But I do wonder how he can hold down a successful relationship right now with his frequent travels.

There's one thing that troubles me the most in this article: Didn't he say a while ago that he moved out of his family's house to live alone???
I thought I read something about him searching an apartment before...

Besides that, I'm happy for him if he is in a relationship, I don't really care about who she is and what she's doing as long as HE is happy as well ^^

From: [identity profile] littleody.livejournal.com
yeah true..
Remembered he was saying bout it on some talk show telling that he lived by himself and the only thing he had on his apartment was his bed
*something like that*

so I dunno which one is correct as for now O_o

I'm not gonna be a hypocrite telling I'm happy as he's found a new gf..

I've been his hard core fan for these past few years, and I'm still in relieved knowing Johnny's won't let his golden boy getting into any serious relationship at least for few years ahead.

anyway good luck pi <3
