Superstar fortuneteller Kazuko Hosoki usually works her caustic consultations on pliable, willing celebrities, most of whom take her harsh criticisms to heart. It will be interesting to see how her style goes down in Hollywood.
This week, on a special two-hour edition of her show "Zubari Iu wa yo! (I'll Give It to You Straight!") on TBS, Tuesday at 9 p.m., Hosoki travels to Los Angeles to visit actor Charlie Sheen, who is about to be married for the third time. Given Sheen's bad-boy past, Hosoki will obviously find much to be critical about, but her main mission will be to tell Sheen about his future.
Other guests on the show include former model Anna Umemiya, whose fame mainly rests on a long-term romance she had with actor Kenji Haga, who was recently arrested for extortion. Anna has since remarried, had a child and divorced.
