TOKYO DECADANCE CYBER GOTH PARTY AT CHRISTON CAFE, JAPAN. SALINE INJECTIONS IN FOREHEAD, BIZARRE DONUT HEAD EXTREME BODY MODIFICATIONS.
What’s better than heavily pierced and tattooed Japanese girls kissing? Making out with flickering snake tongues. Meaning the center of their tongues are split, like a cobra’s. And they’re flicking the points together. Welcome to Tokyo Decadance!
The grand finale of the French TV show (that I co-hosted with Antoine de Caunes) took place at Decadance Bar, above Christon Cafe Shinjuku. These lovely individuals belong to an extreme body modifications group. They sat in a row, stuck IV drips into their foreheads… and waited until their heads bulged with a giant “donut.”
The body inflation effect is temporary, but boy… talk about cinema bizarre!
Antoine de Caunes gamely put on a Hana-Kengo costume for the party. It takes a brave soul to wear boingy balls, a furry codpiece and white poop on his head.
Eating chicken wings with the “worn-in” gloves… Also not a feat for the weak-willed.
Time to party with G-suS, Count de Sang, Yukiro and your other favorites.
Coco, Cotton Bale, the original Kengo, and DJ SiSEN.
As always, there was decadent fashion everywhere you turned.
The visuals were perfect for the TV documentary. Many French viewers emailed me after the show, saying they wanted to party with us in Tokyo!
The absinthe flowed… and so did the green tea.
No party is complete without a kigurumi (person in a full anime body suit).
Cute Japanese girls in bright flowers, feathers and wigs.
Kana has the same Goth Nun PVC outfit as me! (Here are photos of mine from Torture Garden Japan.)
What a life we lead in Halloween-town, eh?
Come party with us at Tokyo Decadance and Decabar! For addresses, RSVP, maps and more, please check out my Tokyo club guide.
Which are your favorite photos and outfits from the night? Coverage of my Los Angeles invasion with Seba coming right up!
Japanese Word of the Day: Meshiagaru = Polite word for “to eat”

JAPANESE GIRLS WITH BIG EYES: PURIKURA STICKER PHOTO MACHINES. FAKE EYELASHES & CIRCLE CONTACTS, JAPAN MAKEUP TECHNIQUES FOR LARGER EYES.
What’s big in Japan? Big female eyes.
Purikura (sticker photo) machines have special features to magnify your eyes, making them as large and anime-like as possible.
The enlarged eyes can be more frightening than cute!
Makeup, thick layers of false eyelashes, and circle contacts (which make the irises larger and darker) also create the giant-eyed effect.
Pale skin and humongous eyes are the beauty ideal for most Japanese women. To get the look, some will even resort to eyelid surgery.
Why do you think this is? Signs of purity and youthfulness? The influence of anime/manga depictions of girls?
The cosmetics industry is thriving on skin-whitening and eye-enlarging products. Gyaru false eyelashes are found in many stores.
Big, double-eyelids with heavy lashes peer out from advertisements all over Tokyo.
Color and circle contacts are very popular at Don Quijote.
Even Hello Kitty is batting her eyes!
What are your thoughts on beauty ideals in Japan? Where does the giant-eyed trend come from? Do some women take it too far?
PS: Tonight, tonight! Come see La Carmina and Sebastiano Serafini hosting an LA anime striptease in skimpy cosplay outfits. Full info here.
