Kiriko Takemura (竹村 桐子, Takemura Kiriko, born January 29, 1993), known professionally as Kyary Pamyu Pamyu (Hiragana: きゃりーぱみゅぱみゅ), is a Japanese singer, and model. Her public image is associated with Japan's kawaii and decora culture, centered in the Harajuku neighborhood of Tokyo,[3] Pamyu Pamyu's music is produced by musician Yasutaka Nakata of electronic music duo Capsule.

Her 2011 single "Pon Pon Pon" reached the top ten on Japan's Oricon music chart; the 2012 singles "Candy Candy" and "Fashion Monster" followed this success. Pamyu Pamyu has since released four full-length albums: Pamyu Pamyu Revolution (2012), Nanda Collection (2013), Pika Pika Fantajin (2014), and Japamyu (2018).

Though most of her success as a recording artist has been in Asia, she has also gained popularity in Western countries due in part to Internet videos which have gone viral.[4] Media outlets have referred to Pamyu Pamyu as "Harajuku Pop Princess", and she has been photographed for magazines such as Dazed & Confused.[5] In 2013, she signed a distribution deal with Sire Records to release her material in the United States.[6]

As of February 2020, Kyary Pamyu Pamyu has sold over 970,000 physical albums and singles in Japan according to Oricon as well as over 2.25 million track downloads of all her singles.[7][8]

Early life

Pamyu Pamyu was born on January 29, 1993 in Nishitōkyō, Tokyo, Japan. Throughout most of her childhood life, she was raised in a traditional strict household, where her parents frequently set early curfews and limited her cell phone access. Pamyu Pamyu's mother was very critical of her fashion sense to the point where she would have to leave the house dressed normally and change into Harajuku-style clothing inside a public restroom. Pamyu Pamyu often returned home and found that her mother had disposed of her fashion accessories, which led to further quarrels. She writes in her autobiography, Oh! My God!! Harajuku Girl, that her father was more supportive of her, although they had their fair share of quarrels as well.[9] She took dance lessons. Around the age of 12, she appeared in a video series called Seijun Imouto Club (清純いもうと倶楽部, lit. "Innocent Sister Club"), and in another titled Kasumi, in which she was filmed posing while wearing a school-issued bathing suit among other things.[10]

Career

2009–2010: Career beginnings

Takemura started as a fashion blogger, and then began her professional career as a model for Harajuku fashion magazines such as Kera! and Zipper.[11] After achieving a measure of fame, she collaborated with the Eyemazing company to produce a line of fake eyelashes called "Harajuku Doll".[12]

Takemura explained her stage name in a Japanese MTV interview. Wearing blonde wigs as a fashion affectation in high school, a friend began calling her "Kyari" because she embraced Western culture and seemed "like a foreign girl". The name stuck. Upon starting her blog, she felt the name "Kyari" — a phonetic Japanese spelling of the Western name "Carrie" — was too short, and "missing something". Takemura added "Pamyu Pamyu" because it sounded cute.[13] She states her full stage name as "Caroline Charonplop Kyary Pamyu Pamyu" (きゃろらいんちゃろんぷろっぷきゃりーぱみゅぱみゅ, Kyarorain Charonpuroppu Kyarī Pamyu Pamyu).[14]

Takemura first met Yasutaka Nakata, the music producer of her favorite electropop group Perfume, at his club event. Because he makes music for the fashion industry, he was intrigued by her career and encouraged her to debut as a singer.[15]

2011–2012: Moshi Moshi Harajuku and Pamyu Pamyu Revolution

In April 2011, along with Japanese fashion editor and photographer Yasumasa Yonehara and Japanese brand 6%DokiDoki, Pamyu Pamyu participated in the charity event "One Snap for Love" to benefit victims of the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami.[16] In July, she released her first promo single, "Pon Pon Pon", citing Gwen Stefani, Christina Aguilera and Katy Perry as inspirations at that time.[17] The music video, a psychedelic tribute to kawaisa and Decora culture, was released to YouTube and became a viral hit, leading to it being reported on by MTV and The Huffington Post.[18][19] The single was produced by Yasutaka Nakata and is the first release from Pamyu Pamyu's debut album, Moshi Moshi Harajuku, which was released August 17, 2011.[20] "Pon Pon Pon" was released on July 20, 2011. The single entered Billboard Japan's Hot 100 chart at 72 on July 31, 2011.[21] American rapper G-Eazy sampled "Pon Pon Pon" on his single "Lost in Translation".[22] The single topped the iTunes Electronic Songs Chart in Belgium and Finland.[23] On August 3, 2011, her second promo single, "Jelly", was internationally released via iTunes.[24] A week after the release of Moshi Moshi Harajuku, Pamyu Pamyu released an autobiography about her rise to fame titled, Oh! My God!! Harajuku Girl.[25][26]

She was also used as the image character for g.u. after the announcement.[38] Around the same time, Pamyu Pamyu announced her debut world tour titled 100% KPP World Tour, which began in February 2013 and lasted until June.

Artistry

Public image

As a musical entertainer, Pamyu Pamyu has been recognized as the "J-Pop Princess" or "Harajuku Pop Princess".[100][101]

Her fashion sense is the subject of much media coverage. Pamyu Pamyu is often called "Japan's Lady Gaga",[102] citing her similar use of fashion to attract attention.[103] According to a review of her London concert, a press release stated "[Kyary] is not supposed to be musically talented. She is more about image featuring her creative fashion sense as one of the main subjects of her career, not just the music."[104] She has cited American singers Gwen Stefani, Katy Perry, and Lady Gaga as her inspirations in both music and fashion.[105] Pamyu Pamyu's fashion sense has also been criticized. While being interviewed on TV Asahi's Music Station, she was wearing an oversized ribbon on her head, which blocked Japanese boy band Kanjani8 from being seen on camera, angering fans of Kanjani8 by her outrageous fashion style. She later stated that when she is being interviewed on television, she will restrict what she is wearing.[103] Pamyu Pamyu's fans, however, defended her wearing the outfit.[103] Pamyu Pamyu cites "kawaii" (meaning "cute" or "cuteness") as her background style.[13]

Her international success has also received much attention. During an interview with The Fader, Pamyu Pamyu was asked if she meant to make music outside of Asia, where she responded; "At first, I didn't think about global markets at all. But even in Japanese, my lyrics don't make any sense and have a kind of mystery, like on "Pon Pon Pon" and "Tsukematsukeru". I can feel that what I'm doing in Japanese is catchy to global audiences anyway."[105] Keiichi Ishizaka, chairman and chief executive officer of Warner Music Japan Inc, commenting on her image to The Japan Times, says "[Kyary] is a person who came directly out of Tokyo's Harajuku culture, and there is a growing international interest in Japan's kawaii culture,"[106] Many critics and publications noted the increase of popularity within the Japanese popular culture outside Japan, such as its fashion and animation, and she is serving as its global ambassador. Ishizaka believed that with the advent of the Internet, there is no difference in time and distance among countries anymore."[106]Seibu Railway honored her by running a train on the Seibu Ikebukuro Line, part of their Seibu 9000 series, from June to September 2016, themed on their pop star's music videos, with carriages idolized with her images, which also passed through her birthplace Nishitōkyō, Tokyo.[107]

Musical style and videos

Since her debut in 2011, her music has been exclusively produced by musician Yasutaka Nakata of electronic music duo Capsule, which also produces music for girl group Perfume and once for singers like Meg, Ami Suzuki, and SMAP. Despite this collaboration with technopop artists and charting on electronic music charts, most media outlets do not classify Pamyu Pamyu under the genre due to Nakata's musical style for her, which is different from his other produced acts.

I love grotesque things. My concept is scary things that become traumatic with their cuteness. There are so many 'just cute' things in the world, so I add grotesque, scary and even shocking materials like eyeballs and brains to balance out the cuteness. Kyary Pamyu Pamyu; interview with The Fader[105]

In the media

As of August 2016, she has gained over 4.4 million followers on the social media site Twitter, making her the most followed female celebrity in Japan.[108] Pamyu Pamyu's debut single "Pon Pon Pon" is one of the most viewed music videos in Japan, garnering over 100,000,000 views as of September 2016.[18][19][59][109] The music video, which has been influenced by '60s and '70s fashion along with the main Japanese theme kawaii, has received huge media attention.[110] American recording artist Katy Perry had tweeted about the music, indicating that she is a fan of hers.[111]

Many of Pamyu Pamyu's singles, including "Candy Candy", "Invader Invader", and "Fashion Monster" have generated millions of views on the social streaming site YouTube. Her single "Furisodation", however, generated minor controversy in her native Japan, where a citizens' group believed the video encouraged alcohol and smoking, in which her label declined.[112] Pamyu Pamyu's breakthrough single "Pon Pon Pon" was featured in the American cartoon The Simpsons in the 2014 episode "Married to the Blob".[113] The single also appears in Just Dance Wii 2; "Ninja Re Bang Bang" and "Tsukematsukeru" appear in Just Dance Wii U, Japanese games, unless emulators are used (or Homebrew), they have yet to be playable outside Japan. The former and "Koi Koi Koi" are briefly featured in the 2016 animated film Sing, sung by an aspiring girl group composed of five Japanese-speaking red pandas. Pamyu Pamyu herself appeared at the film's premiere in Los Angeles.[114] Several of her songs are also found prominently in several releases of the Namco rhythm game series Taiko no Tatsujin.

The character Sylvie Paula Paula in the 2016 video game The King of Fighters XIV is modeled after Pamyu Pamyu.

Personal life

Although Pamyu Pamyu knows some English, she is not completely fluent and often has an interpreter while overseas, and prefers to speak in Japanese for interviews.[115] As of 2014, she has been studying English and spoke to the audience in brief bits of English during her concerts in London, United States and Australia, and on the NHK World show Moshimoshi Nippon. When asked in an interview in 2016 about Pamyu Pamyu's progress of studying English, she stated, "Not very good, not at all".[116]

She dated Sekai no Owari lead vocalist Satoshi Fukase from June 2013 until August 15, 2015.[117][118][119] Pamyu Pamyu is friends with members of Perfume, as they both share times during recording with their producer Yasutaka Nakata. In a July 2014 live interview with Space Shower TV, she stated that she frequently communicates with the members either through Line or e-mail. On the other hand, the members of Perfume have explicitly stated that they also listen to Pamyu Pamyu's songs, specifically member A-Chan, who admitted that some of her songs sound identical to theirs but still enjoys listening as by crediting Nakata working with other artists.[120]

She is an anime and manga fan and has mentioned that her favorite anime show and manga is Crayon Shin-Chan. Pamyu Pamyu has also mentioned that she is a Vocaloid fan.[121]
