- •
HYDE ( born on January 29, 1969, in Wakayama, Japan, real name rumored to be Hideto Takarai) is the lead singer for the Japanese rock band L'Arc~en~Ciel. Since Hyde keeps his personal information secret, much about him is either unknown or unofficial. His height is said to be 5'2", or about 156cm. He joined L'Arc~en~Ciel in 1992 after having been a part of another band, Jerusalem's Rod.
In addition to being lead singer and main lyricist of L'Arc~en~Ciel, HYDE has worked on a self-titled solo project as well, and has his own record label under Ki/oon Sony Japan, Haunted Records.
On December 25th, 2000, he departed from Japan's most eligible bachelors list and married Megumi Oishi. They have one child together, a boy, but because HYDE is a very private celebrity, speculations about his personal life and family are discouraged out of respect.
