Is Ken Hirai of mixed ethnicity?

I've recently watched a couple of his music videos, he really looks like he has caucasian genes. Is any of his parents American or European?

Nope, that’s the thing about him, even thought he doesn’t look it he’s 100% Japanese, on most websites I’ve read info on him that’s usually the first thing they say, when I first saw him I thought he looked kind of like Will Ferel ..lol

It's weird and hilarious though, that a macho-looking man can have *that* squeaky voice... Never liked him anyway, but he's quite popular in Japan. His recent song "Aika" was a great hit.
