Kami Shiraishi is widely active as an actress, working as a voice actress as well as a singer. However, behind her three-headed and six-armed activity, she also said that "I always do it with the mood of learning", she said that she had no personality and "low sense of self-affirmation". This year marks its 10th anniversary, what are Shiraishi's expectations in a gorgeous career?
I don't think it matters if you don't have self-confidence
On Shiraishi's Instagram followers exceeded 1 million. When that topic is mentioned, it will be used to echo others with "yes". Compared with the high approval rate of her peers, she said "it's incredible" while giving reasons to make people feel close.
"I think it's because the hands can get there. Because it is not far away. In these 10 years, I have met a variety of actors and artists, with a strong aura, and many people with extraordinary charm, but, "Why do I have so many fans?" ””
It is said that she started attending a music school in her hometown of Kagoshima Prefecture in the first grade of elementary school so that she could sing and dance in the troupe in the future. However, in 2011, he was still a first-year junior high school student, won the "Toho Cinderella" Selection Committee Censor Special Award, and starred in the NHK Dahe drama "Jiang ~ Princesses' Warring States~ very early in the same year" In 2014, he starred in the film "Kabuki is a Lady" directed by Zhou Fang Zhengxing. The turning point was the 2016 animated film "Your Name" directed by Makoto Shinkai. Played the voice of the protagonist. Before leaving a hit in the history of Japanese cinema, she recalled that in some places, people's feelings cannot be erased.
"There was such a thing." Lately, there are a lot of things going on for everyone. The first time I felt this was "your name." "At that time. The work got bigger and bigger, went to the world, and felt that "that movie is so powerful." After the post-recording, the work leaves the nest, and when I perform, because it is me and not me, I feel that everyone is taken for granted. Maybe it helps a little, but it's not my strength. ”
"Every time I am praised, I feel that 'I will not get carried away', and there are also immature places. The more lively the surroundings, the calmer they are."
There is also something that is not seen on the white stone, which is SNS.
"Because of the relationship between looks and expressiveness, although I will say nasty things, I feel very much for such a voice. Because, I know (laughs). "It hurts because I know." Especially when it comes to appearance, I think, "But there's no way." So instead of being angry, it's better to be sad."
The wounds left at such times will not heal, which is sadness. But, saving me at that time was also entertainment. So there's a feeling of 'being bothered by this job and being saved by this job'.
In 2021, Kami-Shiraishi celebrated its 10th anniversary. In her second year, she embarked on a gorgeous career, and when asked about her sense of affirmation about herself, she got an unexpected answer.
"The sense of self-affirmation is very low. Publicly, I am very different from myself. I'm very unconfident and I don't like myself very much, but if I stand on stage and stand in front of a camera, I won't say that. First of all, there is a contrast."
"I'm going to mess around with preparations, 'Is it okay?' Is it okay? I thought so (laughs). I think I was prepared because of my low sense of self-affirmation. I think there are a lot of people who are annoyed and "want to increase their self-confidence". However, "I think it's good not to have self-confidence." If you don't work hard with confidence and perform miraculously once, you can become a talisman again and work hard. Recently I feel like people without self-confidence will grow."
Two cover albums, "That Song," will be released at the same time this month. These are two works, "That Song 1," which is a cover of a 70s song, and "That Song 2," which is a cover of an 80s-90s song. When asked which song everyone knows wants to share with the cover, and which one wants to show her artist's personality is stronger, she answered on the spot with amazing momentum.
"I was almost self-conscious. I can compose lyrics but I can't compose music. There are things you want to convey, and you want to say them anyway, so you sing a little differently. After receiving this song, I had a strong resonance with the lyrics, thinking 'Ah, I want to say this' and singing the song"
In Kami-Shiraishi's eyes, the self-expression of the singer-songwriters of the same era was like.
"Very handsome. Although there is no self, there is also a self who aspires to be that kind of person. Now the lyrics themselves are also shy. Because I felt like I would come out if I didn't want to take it out. I think it's probably because I'm doing the job of an actor, and I'm thinking more about 'how the word should be conveyed' than 'I want to say'. Actors will consider the overall situation of the work and want to do as the director wishes, and too strong a self will also be very obstructive. I already felt very comfortable with others. So I feel like I don't have a personality and I prefer it to listening to other people. Probably because I'm the eldest daughter."
On the one hand, he said that he had no self-worth, and on the other hand, the information of "That Song" for the relevant personnel included a long explanatory essay of Shiraishi himself. Kami-Shiraishi was born in 1998. The '70s and '80s didn't even have an experience.
"It felt like traveling through time. I love costume dramas. I look forward to the same showa as in previous times. It is often said to be showa wind. Although it looks like there are also things in it, there are also things that I like to simulate, so it feels very old. I also like letters. I want to buy CDs and can't read e-books (laughs). I like the texture and feel"
Although Kami Shiraishi was like this, he did not feel the difference from his contemporaries.
"The relationship with the children who have a little old soul has become better." Loved the feeling of being troubled. Also communicate with friends. Surprisingly, there are a lot of kids who love to write. Although LINE is also very ordinary, I am happy to communicate with you. There were no friends who had been playing with their phones when I saw them."
Kami-Shiraishi has been active in the fields of actors, singers, voice actors, and other fields. At first glance, it seems to be smooth sailing, but the entanglement behind it is also very large.
"Always trying to do it while wanting more time, wanting to do it more seriously." That place that may become energy. Say it's anxious. When I was a high school student, I was also late than others because of my work. I studied desperately because I regretted that. This negative anxiety and remorse becomes motivation. I have a lustful mood."
This greed opened up new areas of activity.
"Although I will write essays in September, when I write articles, I will also think about it for half an hour, and then I can change the part. What a troublesome person I am (laughs)."
She also said that "the motivation for performance is all the same", but when asked if it is difficult to maintain a posture of continuous energy injection in many aspects, he told me that sometimes I need to affirm myself.
"Just been very good to yourself." Ahhh, you worked hard, you're amazing, like this (laughs). I think it's important to praise well. Relatively easy to open and close. Maybe there's also an AB type (laughs)"
Kami-Shiraishi spent about 3 years in Mexico as a student due to his father's work relationship. That experience gave her the element of optimism now.
"Everyone will make up their minds in a crisp place, and I think that's where I am now, and there will always be a way." I think I'm a negative optimist. I think positive people are bound to be cheerful because they know something nasty. Knowing that pain becomes gentle, is this the relationship? ”
