Scarlett Johansson in Tokyo

Scarlett Johansson is in Tokyo to attend a series of events to sponsor the Moët champagne brand and to record a TV commercial for them. She is going through similar situations like the main character in Lost in Translation, but dealing with champagne instead of whisky 😉

This is one of the billboards of Scarlett Johansson sponsoring Moët that can be seen around Tokyo.

She has been to some events in Roppongi Hills and she is staying at Park Hyatt Hotel (the same as in Lost in Translation) but the security measures are so extreme that it’s impossible to see her. So I leave you with some pictures taken by a journalist in one of the events at Roppongi Hills.

Internet café with showers

This is a sign at the entrance of an Internet café that opens 24 hours and has showers. Notice the showers “icon” next to the TV one. Because of this trend many people that do not have a house spend the night at Internet cafes for a cheap price and at the same time they can use the showers.

Drying Tetra Briks

It still surprises me that people in Japan dry tetra briks, cans and bottles before throwing them to the garbage. They worry about cleaning the trash!! Most of them decide to put the tetra briks and cans to dry in their kitchens but sometimes you can see them in a yard or outside of a window:
