Pot. New Character - Non Trainee - Side character - if crap, its cool can remove :) [hider= April Tanaka] [center][img]https://78.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m6vg34BHaz1qz64qlo1_500.gif[/img] [img]https://i.imgur.com/Cnn3v4p.png[/img] [sub][color=E0FFFF]24 years old - December 21st 1994 - Soloist/Actress/Drums - 1 year signed with AS - 175cm - 50kg - Australian - Blood type B - E0FFFF[/color][/sub] ---- [/center] [color=E0FFFF][b]Personality[/b][/color] [color=4682B4]Overly opinionated and unfortunate enough to have been blessed with a less than still tongue, April is exactly the person she's rumoured to be. It's that exact reason she had found herself with a contract at AS Entertainment. There are plenty of rumours surrounding April and her [i]difficult[/i] attitude are ripe among the assorted Asian entertainment labels. The majority of which are correct. In her defence, she would argue of having a specific vision, or image she wishes to portray as an artist. Unfortunately, as a trainee that was entirely different than her previous label- labels, had considered. It was in this ignorance of her obvious talents and less than cutesy appearance, that April turned somewhat sour. Outside of a promoting cycle, or outside of the public eye, she's a perfectionist with a [i]tiny[/i] selection of anger issues. Had anyone asked her colleagues, the comments "demanding", "obnoxious", and "firey" were often used and not one with a positive undertone. Stressed - something of which was fairly obvious. She was merely the victim in an enterprise that failed to understand her pop-rock image. It's a statement she chooses to continue believing despite knowing it's her own attitude that has prevented any reasonable success outside of the Japanese rock scene.

Whilst it's in her heritage, it's not something she thinks of aside from whenever the topic is brought to the surface. Thankfully, her maternal Grandparents were adamant enough that she learn the language to speak only in their home. She found her love for music at a fairly young age, although never attended a vocal lesson until thirteen years old. Her admiration for the drums arrived shortly after puberty hit. There was something powerful about the patterns and the rhythm they created. It was enchanting enough to have a positive impact on developing anger issues. She was seventeen when she obtained her first successful audition and contract with the Japanese company Teichiku, a place in which her contracted lasted the greatest length of time. A total of three years passed with the company before she was scheduled to release. Her [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qhPLK1Tn1GQ]first single[/url] charted with reasonable success although the arising creative differences, April turned a found herself resentful of the company. No more than six months after her initial release, her contract was simply not renewed. April floated between four further companies, based in Japan and Korea, releasing two further singles and one mini album before again, the contracts were simply not renewed. Presently, April remains at a total of thirteen months with AS Entertainment. Presently, she's made an effort to keep her attitude in check although there are rumours of her termination once again due to the pleasant nature of her attitude and reluctance to change.
