Shibasaki finds new love with UVERworld’s Takuya?

Singer/actress Kou Shibasaki has found a new boyfriend, says the newest issue of Josei Seven. She was recently spotted with TAKUYA∞, the vocalist of rock band UVERworld, which finally achieved its first #1 single last month with the “Mobile Suit Gundam 00” theme song “Hakanakumo Towa no Kanashi.”

According to the magazine, the two were already acquainted, but they met again in the fall at a gathering with their musician friends, and they immediately hit it off. On December 5, Shibasaki attended UVERworld’s concert at the Nippon Budokan. In addition, Josei Seven reported that they spent three consecutive nights together on dates. The magazine also published a photo of them at a Christmas illumination event in Roppongi.

Since 2005, Shibasaki had been dating actor Satoshi Tsumabuki, who co-starred with her in the drama series “Orange Days.” Many thought they were headed for marriage, but in light of this news, it seems that they have already broken up.
