Shingo Murakami (村上 信五, Murakami Shingo[1], born January 26, 1982[1] in Takatsuki, Osaka[1][2]) is a Japanese singer, presenter, variety tarento and actor. He is the keyboardist of the Japanese male idol group Super Eight (previously known as Kanjani Eight),.[3]

Early life

When he was in junior high school his classmate was a fan of V6. He was recommended to "receive an audition," but at that time was caught up in club activities and school events. He was invited again after retiring from club activities. In 1996 he was invited to send a resume. At this point, his mother opposed it, but she said "please keep the promise". He went to the audition and passed. You Yokoyama also participated in the audition at that time, and Hideaki Takizawa was a judge.

Career

He appeared with You Yokoyama and Subaru Shibutani on Christmas Live of KinKi Kids immediately after the audition. After that, they became the initial members of the Kansai Junior.[4]

"Chattery Fight Thursday Kanjani You Yokoyama-Shingo Murakami's laughing big investigation line" started in 1999 on Shinnosuke Furumoto: Chaparasuka Woo! (Nippon Cultural Broadcasting).

They formed Kanjani Eight in 2002 and debuted with the CD Naniwa iroha Bushi in 2004.

He performed a solo concert in Osaka Shochikuza in December 2006.

From January to February 2008, he performed in a two-person stage Mitei "Ichi" with Shibutani. The performance was a Shibutani-Murakami self-produced performance, and the two undertook the three roles of making, directing and casting.

From January to February 2009, he performed in the stage show If or ... It has been performed every year since then.

In 2010, he was adopted as a Proactiv advertising character.

In 2014, he served as TBS casters of the "2014 FIFA World Cup" with Koji Kato.[5]
