Okinawa Japan native Gackt Cumui gained fame as front man to the Japanese pop-rock group Malice Mizer, breaking away from the group to go solo in 1999, but sticking to the same style of music. With his theatrically effeminate style and boy band front man appeal, Gackt has garnered immense success throughout Japan, being featured in countless video games, anime films and television dramas. While releasing his 10 albums and 37 hit singles, the pop icon has also starred in films, modeled and provided his voice for Vocaloid, the recently developed voice synthesizer software.
