Biography
[edit]He started dancing when he was older in his preschool.[3] He says he started to learn dancing because his elder sister was learning Yosakoi, and his parents encouraged him to begin dance.[4] Takahashi's father was very rigorous in his instruction at home and Takahashi sometimes ran away from home because of his strictness.[4] He formed a dance group in 2008 to participate in contests. He has won several competitions with his dance group and has also toured with SMAP as a backup dancer.[5] He then left the dance group and studied dance for about two years with dancer Noppo (Shit Kingz) from the first year of junior high school.[6]
In 2013, His parents sent Johnny's a resume, and told him to audition for Johnny & Associates, but Takahashi, who wished to live as a dancer in the future, protested and quarreled with them.[7] But his mother convinced him, "Who do you think has paid for you to learn to dance so far?" and he decided to audition.[7] After an audition, he joined Johnny's in July 2013.[7] In June 2015, as an official supporter of TV Asahi's summer event TV Asahi Roppongi Hills Summer Festival Summer Station, a limited time group Mr. King vs. Prince was formed as an official supporting group, and he was chosen as a member of Mr. King.[8] After the event, it was announced that the group would continue, and he would continue as a member of Mr. King from 2016 onward.[9]
On May 23, 2018, he made his CD debut as King & Prince with the single Cinderella Girl.[10]
From the May issue of the same year, he began a series in Shogakukan's Betsucomi comic magazine, Idol, Sometimes Shōjo manga artist, in which he learns how to draw manga by interviewing manga artists and aspires to become a manga artist.[11] As the culmination of his work, he published a 14-page newly drawn girls' manga in the May 2019 issue of the same magazine, My super love story! Prince and boys are a very fine line!. He was the first Johnny's to debut as a shōjo manga artist.[11]
On January 1, 2022, in the Nippon Television variety show King & Prince Ru., he challenged the "longest time running on a non-Newtonian fluid" and set a new record of 1 minute 6.49 seconds, becoming the Guinness World Records holder.[12]
On August 24, 2023, he won the 116th The Television Drama Academy Award for Best Actor for his role in the TV series Passion for Punchlines.[1][13]
Currently, he is also using his talent for dancing to choreograph songs for King & Prince and Travis Japan.
