Fashion magazine non-no recently held a charity event, called “Charity non Colle“, on May 21st.

It was a combination event that mixed the magazine’s 40th anniversary and the relief fund for the Tohoku charity. Models Mizobata Junpei of D☆DATE and Sasaki Nozomi made an appearance at the event to encourage people to contribute.


About 40 non-no male models were there as well, and they did a walk and talk in front of fans. As soon as they made their appearance, about 5000 fans ran to them from noon to evening.


When Sasaki and Mizobata appeared though, the audience went absolutely bananas for them. Mizubata, who wore a suit when he made his entrance, took a rose out of his chest pocket and threw it into the audience.

Mizobata confessed that he called Sasaki for the first time to ask for her help in planning the whole “throwing the rose into the audience” thing, and she was more than happy to help him out.

In the end, the models did a final walk and were holding collection boxes to raise money for the earthquake victims.

Overall, it was a smoothly executed event that will hopefully help generate further revenue for the heavily affected regions and survivors.
