Japanese actress and singer
Erika Sawajiri has received a special invitation to the Led Zeppelin reunion concert in London, which was originally scheduled for the 26th of this month but has been postponed until December 10.
Sawajiri is a huge fan of the legendary band. In her profile on her website(Erika Official
http://www.erika-web.com/ ), Led Zeppelin is the only artist listed as her musical influence. But with tens of millions of fans around the world entering the lottery for the concert’s 20,000 tickets, her chances of seeing them in concert looked slim.
However, Led Zeppelin’s record company in Japan was looking to promote the band among the younger generations, so they decided to invite a celebrity with a lot of influence among young people. Based on her popularity and her love of the band, Sawajiri was selected. She instantly accepted the offer, saying it was a “dream come true.”
