Close call on this one. A (so-called) psychic apparently relied upon by Brad Pitt who was indeed the subject of one profile in Forbes ([1]), but nothing else sustained I can find. There's [2] (reprint of an interview) and a couple of namedrops in [3] from The Guardian. And, of course, the usual hits in deprecated or unreliable tabloids like Express and the Daily Mail. For a WP:FRINGE personality like this, I'd like to see better sourcing than seems available. AleatoryPonderings (talk) 15:54, 28 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - The Forbes profile was promising, but other than that I can't find anything at all outside of unreliable sources and celebrity (Brad Pitt) gossip — Rhododendrites ^talk \\ 16:58, 28 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I don't know Japanese but apparently he was on Japanese TV shows, perhaps some sources are available in relation to that, in case someone can find such... —Paleo Neonate – 00:04, 30 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
