I just wrote a post on CNet Asia about a Japanese AV star, Nonami Takizawa, who just did a pretty sexy photo shoot someplace in rural China, of all places.

Given the historical and politital climate between Japan and China, I’m not sure going to a Chinese village to peddle your watermelons is a wise idea. Number one, some people are going to take offence to swinging your boobs around in a manner they deem inappropriate, and number 2, some Chinese people may not take kindly to Japanese media showing China as being so under-developed.

In contrast, Nonami Takizawa is anything but underdeveloped:

Here’s the youku video that’s causing all the uproar. I chose not to publish it on CNet, as it is a little bit much. You can see the villagers crowded around, apparently stunned as the Japanese crew conducts the photoshoot:

So was this photo shoot a cheap attempt at getting publicity?
Maybe so.

How about this blog post? ;)
I bet this outdoes Tian’anmen Lesbians for sure.
