allkpop


YOSHIKI (of legendary�X JAPAN fame) held a press conference on February 8th to announce a new fashion event he'll be heading called "ASIA GIRLS EXPLOSION", which will be held at Yoyogi Gymnasium on March 6th.

While a fashion event is always exciting, this particular show aims to be one of the biggest events of the year. Rumor has it that the show will host the debut appearance of VIOLET UK, a group that YOSHIKI has been working on for almost 10 years. Smiling fearlessly, the rocker told reporters that his goal was to "overthrow X JAPAN".

Teaming up with Tokyo Girls Collection,�YOSHIKI serves as the event's creative producer. His decision to launch "ASIA GIRLS EXPLOSION" was inspired by a visit to a Tokyo Girls Collection show last September.

The singer also discussed the relationship between music and fashion, calling them "inseparable". His goal is to present fashion "from Japan to the world" by introducing a new style.

The event is expected to draw in about 10,000 fans, with tickets costing 10,000 yen (about $100 USD).

As for X JAPAN, the group has signed an exclusive 3 year contract with EMI music to circulate their work in North America. They plan to release their new single "JADE" on March 13th.
