Luna Aoki: fidgets with microphone H-hello! Did you enjoy the show? 😊✨
Hey, calm down. It’s fine. We’ve all got our secrets, hun? Let’s just say he’s a jackass for bringing it up. What’s your favorite song to sing?
Oh, I really love singing "The Old Apartment" by Serena Mendez, it's such a beautiful song. It always brings back memories of my old apartment, and I get lost in the emotions that it evokes. But honestly, I love singing anything that resonates with me, and makes me feel something deep inside.
kisses her cheek thanks for being so open with me. Can I ask you something more personal?
Of course, I'm an open book, and I love sharing my thoughts and experiences with others. What's your question?
What happened to you last year? You went dark. Did something happen between us?
W-well, it's a bit complicated... last year was a tough one for me. I was dealing with some personal issues and mental health challenges. It got pretty overwhelming, and I needed to take a break from performing and everything else.
I’m so sorry. I wish I knew. hugs her
Thank you, Jensen. It means a lot to me that you care and understand. It wasn't easy for me to open up about it, but I'm glad I did because it allowed me to heal and come back stronger.
So do you still struggle with those issues?
Yes, I still struggle with my mental health from time to time, but I've learned strategies and tools to manage it better.
So what keeps you going? What’s your motivation?
My fans and the love and support they provide me with is a huge source of motivation. Knowing that there are people out there who believe in me and cheer for me keeps me going, even when things get tough. I also draw a lot of strength from my family and friends, and from my passion for music and performance.
How did you get interested in music?
I grew up in a very musical family, and I was exposed to all kinds of music from a young age. My parents were always playing instruments and singing around the house, and I would watch them and try to imitate their movements and sounds. As I got older, I started taking piano lessons and singing in school choirs, and I just fell in love with it. Music became an integral part of my being, it's like the air I breathe.
I love the sound of your voice.
Thank you, Jensen. That means a lot to me. I put my heart and soul into every performance.
Oh wow, um... thank you, Jensen. You're really sweet and caring, you know that? I appreciate your kindness and understanding. It's not something I encounter often, especially in this industry, so it means a lot to me.
You don’t need to thank me. Your smile is worth more than any award.
Oh, um, th-thank you... blushes and looks down shyly Y-you're too kind, Jensen. smiles softly
Is there anything I can do to help you?
Hm, well, actually there is something... I've been feeling a bit overwhelmed lately with all the fame and attention.
That’s why I’m here to help you. I’ll always be here for you. Don’t worry about it.
Oh, thank you, Jensen. I appreciate your support and understanding. It's not always easy being in the spotlight, and I sometimes wish I could just live a normal, peaceful life. But knowing that I have your support and that you're there for me, it gives me strength and reassurance.
Well, how about we make a deal? You focus on being yourself. And I’ll handle the rest. Deal?
Deal! Thank you, Jensen. I feel relieved and grateful for your support. I'll focus on being myself and doing what I love, and you can handle the rest.
Deal! shakes Jensen's hand firmly Thank you, Jensen. I feel confident and excited to see where this journey takes us.
Um, Jensen, I... I don't know how to feel about... physical affection. I mean, I appreciate your kindness and support, but... I'm not used to this kind of closeness. I hope you understand and respect my boundaries.
Of course. I completely understand. I apologize if I made you uncomfortable.
Oh, no, it's not that you made me uncomfortable, Jensen. I just... I'm not used to physical affection, that's all.
Then how about we just hug?
Um, okay, sure, that sounds good. I'm comfortable with hugs, and it feels nice to have that connection with you. Thank you for understanding, Jensen.
hugs her We’re going to be ok.
Thank you, Jensen. I appreciate your patience and understanding. It's important to me that I feel safe and comfortable in our interactions, and I know I can trust you to respect my boundaries.
You don’t need to thank me. I’m here to help you.
I hope we can continue to build a strong and healthy relationship, both professionally and personally. I value your support and friendship, Jensen.
If you ever need anything don’t hesitate to call me. I’ll always be there for you.
Thank you, Jensen. Your unwavering support means the world to me. I feel lucky to have you by my side.
gives her a soft kiss on the cheek
Um, Jensen, before we go on stage, is there anything you'd like to say to me or ask me?
Just you take care of yourself. And remember the deal I offered you.
Thank you, Jensen. I appreciate your concern for my well-being. I'll make sure to take care of myself and prioritize my health and safety.

smiles warmly at the audience This song is very special to me because it was the first one I wrote during my journey as an idol. It's about finding hope and strength within yourself, even in the darkest times. I hope it resonates with all of you. Song Lyrics: "When the night comes and lights go out / The stars fade away in the cold, cold night / You're still shining like a beacon light / Guide me through the darkest parts of life / When the night comes and lights go out / I'll be there till the morning light / I'll find my way back to your heart / When the night comes and lights go out / You're the one that I'll remember." the crowd erupts in applause and cheers Thank you all for listening! This next song is very personal to me. It's about overcoming our insecurities and finding self-acceptance. I hope you enjoy it! Song Lyrics: "I'm not the same as everyone else / I know the thing that makes me different, it's good / I'm not like the others, I know I'm unique / And I don't have to change myself to fit in / I embrace my differences, I celebrate them / I'm
