Hatsune Miku on David Letterman

submitted by RFlagg

9 years 6 months 4 weeks ago

Virtual singing star Hatsune Miku, makes an appearance on David Letterman. Not sure I would have ever thought I'd see any vocaloid or virtual star on a major network show here in the US, but here we go.

Did Gorillaz ever do any of these shows? I'm wondering because they did concerts where the cartoons were projected onto a screen.

I don't know. I know Gorillaz did the Grammy Awards in 2006 with Madonna. It looks these days they don't worry about the animation when they tour, more or less a background thing with the real performers front stage. Of course they have real performers, where Hatsune Miku's singing is done by a computer program as well, not just autotuned to be her. I'd think they had to appear on shows as the animated form though before...

Didn't like the music, don't like the idea and as usual, pretty creeped out by the anime fetishisation of school girls...

but I'm upvoting purely for Daves one liner at the end

That's all they've got? Oh.
I would think the best reason to do this would be the outrageous stage show you could do as an animated character without having the acrobatics and impossible dancing/karate/costume changes effect the 'singing'. Too bad they didn't think the same thing.

Moving this video to RFlagg's personal queue. It failed to receive enough votes to get sifted up to the front page within 2 days.
