Popular actress and model Kyoko Hasegawa has tied the knot with Haruichi Shindo, guitarist of the popular rock duo Pornograffitti, her office said Thursday.
The office said Hasegawa, 30, popularly known as �gHasekyo�h by her fans, met Shindo, 34, through a mutual acquaintance around spring and started to date around summer.
wow...anyone else feel this marriage is a little rushed. I mean..they met in spring...dated in summer...marriage in fall... What's next divorce in winter, lol. Anyways, when artists get married you never know what will happen. But good luck to them, however long they last.

if their marriage lasts forever, that's good.
If not, then I'll have the chance to win Kyoko back. that's not bad.
Nanayomachi�fs tale is built around a spiritual and emotional journey. The story follows a young 29-year-old woman, Saiko, who has just arrived in Thailand. Why she�fs there is unexplained. A vacation? Running away? It�fs left up to the viewer.
Escaping from a suspect cab ride, she runs into the woods - straight into the arms of French heartthrob, Colin Gregoire, who - as the character Greg - takes her to where he lives and studies - a small school of traditional Thai massage. Greg, the master masseuse Amari, her son and an old maid are the only people living in this enchanting place in the heart of the forest. Even the strange taxi driver, who happens to be the Amari�fs brother, reappears. Together they all form an odd pseudo family.
They do not understand each other's languages - Thai, French, English and Japanese - but through the touch of Thai massage, they communicate nonetheless. Mystical and physical happenings, random meetings - all build to revelations for all involved. What could have easily become a shallow new age screed carries a subtle profundity.
Saiko is brilliantly played by Kyoko Hasegawa. She made her name in the popular TV drama, Bokudake no Madonna (My Only Madonna), and through smart casting choices is showing her chops a Japanese star to watch.
Like Mike Leigh, Kawase�fs method of working with actors (and non-actors alike) is not to reveal events, motivations, or even plot. Viewers share the very same situations, feelings and moments that the actors themselves discovered. And Hasegawa is particularly adept in working with this technique. Nanayomachi highlights not only actors, but also director Kawase at top form.
and more about HaseKyo's marriage I didn't posted before

Actress Kyoko Hasegawa doesn�ft believe in long engagements. The 30-year-old star tied the knot last month with Haruichi Shindo, guitarist of the popular rock duo Pornograffitti. �gHasekyo,�h as she�fs popularly known, said she met Shindo, 34, for the first time in spring and they started to date in summe.
Interestingly enough, in July, Hasegawa released a book titled Platinum Promise: 50 Tips for Nurturing Eternal Love, which features a series of interviews with her on how movies portray love and relationships. �gBuilding a long-term relationship is not always about like or dislike. Rather, my ideal relationship is one where a couple can enjoy daily conversation with a sense of love as well as friendship,�h she said then. In announcing her marriage, Hasegawa said she and Shindo have �gstimulated�h each other artistically and described their meeting as a �gmiracle.�h
Of course, the tabloids immediately started speculating whether Hasegawa�fs marriage was a dekichatta kekkon (shotgun wedding), which her management denied. The busy Hasegawa is currently appearing in a TBS Sunday night miniseries called Scandal, as well as the theatrical release Nanayomachi, in which her character goes on a solo weeklong trip to Thailand. Struggling with the language barrier and feeling alone, the young woman interacts with locals and starts to reevaluate her friendships, career and love life. Hasegawa has also finished filming Rain Fall in Ginza and Shinjuku with British actor Gary Oldman. This is the first film adaptation of crime author Barry Eisler�fs books about John Rain, a Japanese-American freelance assassin and former CIA operative. Rain is played by Japanese actor Kippei Shiina, 43, while Oldman plays the head of the CIA�fs Tokyo office. The story takes place in Tokyo, where Rain is assigned to kill a woman who is played by Hasegawa. It will be released in Japan next April.
You can�ft go wrong with Gary Oldman in a movie about a hitman, a pretty girl, and evil CIA assassins. The film, which we reported on last year but have heard nothing about since, is called �gRain Fall�h, and my guess is that Gary Oldman either plays the head of those evil CIA guys, or, well, he�fs probably the head of the evil CIA guys. I�fm just guessing, of course, but you don�ft pay Gary Oldman and not have him play the heavy. It�fs just wrong.
Directed by the very cool-sounding Max Mannix, the movie is based on a novel by Barry Eisler, and has an assassin protecting the daughter of one of his victims against other assassins. Probably because he feels bad for whacking her old man or something. That seems to happen a lot in movies about assassins, if you haven�ft noticed.
Besides Oldman, the film stars Kippei Shiina, Kyoko Hasegawa, Misa Shimizu, Akira Emoto, Takumi Bando, and Dirk Hunter. The lead in �gRain Fall�h is Japanese, as are most of the cast, the setting, and dialogue.
when I searched for any news of the movie, I just saw this. So she is now 7 months pregnant. WOW, HaseKyo will have a baby soon !
And it becomes interesting...she announceed wedding plans in October last year and then announceed in December that she is 3 months pregnant.
