Mizushima Hiro opens his official Instagram account

Actor Mizushima Hiro has opened up his official Instagram account. This was announced by his wife, singer-songwriter Ayaka through Twitter.

Ayaka reported, "My husband started using Instagram~," and warned fans, "By the way!!! There are a lot of fake accounts of my husband, so be careful." Then she tweeted, "This is the real one!" and revealed her husband's Instagram username "@hiro_mizushima_official" . Mizushima's uploads onto Instagram are a picture of himself with the word "official" written on it and adorable photos of his dogs so far.

Ayaka herself feels that she has no need for opening an Instagram account, "I am at my limit with Twitter and blog." However, she playfully stated, "I asked my husband, 'Put me on there once in awhile!'."

Yeah, I just pre-ordered the Blu-ray. Had no thought what I want to buy out of CDJapan with the reserve points (with some expiring next month) until this came up... I had a thought of getting Rina Katahira's album, but my mind changed to not buying that album, and then this...first concert DVD/Blu-ray I've ever bought.

I'm disappointed though how the fanclub version (with more bonus footage) is only available on DVD, not Blu-ray. I've been leaning more towards Blu-ray, so why would the fanclub version only be available on DVD without a Blu-ray option?

Ayaka and Mizushima Hiro are expecting their 1st child

It's been reported that actor Mizushima Hiro (30) and singer-songwriter Ayaka (27) are expecting their first child.

Through their agency, the couple announced, "We have been blessed with a new life." They revealed that Ayaka is currently 4 months pregnant and that she will continue her activities until next spring.

When the couple got married in 2009, they announced that Ayaka was ill with Grave's Disease. "Even after I made my comeback, I worked while putting my health first. During my doctor check-up at the end of last year, results showed that I was in stable condition," she explained, "That became a big opportunity for us to talk more about having a baby, and now, we have reached this very blissful moment."

Finally, they expressed, "Right now, we can only pray that this small life before us will grow healthily. We would be happy if you would please continue to watch over us warmly."

Congratulations to the happy couple!

Number of songs to be included in Rainbow Road , tbc

And based on the contents , I probably will get just the CD only as the other editions doesn't excite me :x
