Living in Japan in a small $550/month apartment

My Tiny Tokyo Apartment for $550/Month: What living in Japan in a 180 sq ft place is like

Living in Japan is awesome, and X-Factor finalist Jason Brock is doing just that in a super tiny apartment in Tokyo (near Shinjuku) that is just 180 square feet (16.7 m2). But even though it’s small, it still gives an American foreigner a comfortable place to live in Japan. Jason only pays ¥60000 (~$550) per month for rent, and for him that’s a great deal!

I just wanted to let you know that my 8th Annual Christmas Holiday show is on December 20th at 7pm (Japan Time). You can watch it virtually (online) OR in real life in Tokyo. You can get tickets for either option here.

If you come to the show in real life, it is in Roppongi, Tokyo, Japan at a piano bar called MyScotch. The information about the show is all here.

I hope you can make it, and have a Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah and Happy Kwanzaa!

Jason Brock Gets His Glitter Explosion! - THE X FACTOR USA 2012 // Jason Brock REACTS to Himself!

First Live Shows Performance: X-Factor Finalist Jason Brock Reacts to “Glitter Explosion”

I decided to do another reaction video to my own performance on the X-Factor USA 2012 (Season 2). This is the one where I did that J-Lo (Jennifer Lopez) and Pitbull song. It was my first performance on the live shows.

This is also the show where I got my “glitter explosion” that I had talked about on my initial audition. It wasn’t as noticeable as I’d hoped.

Simon Cowell, Britney Spears, Demi Lovato and even L.A. Reid give me their feedback on my performance (and it wasn’t as great as I’d hoped). 

On the plus side, I get to stand between Khloe Kardashian and Mario Lopez and grab Mario’s butt on national television. lol I also get to run my hand down the body of a HOT Japanese dancer. So it wasn’t all bad.

Why did L.A. Reid choose this song for me? The world may never know. But anyway, I hope you enjoy my reaction.
