Biography
Hideaki Takizawa, professionally known as Tackey, is a Japanese businessman, record producer, and former singer and actor. Born March 29, 1982, he entered entertainment early, debuting as an actor in 1995. His musical phase began in 2002 when he formed Tackey & Tsubasa, a duo with Tsubasa Imai that became a major commercial project. After more than two decades performing, Takizawa retired from the entertainment spotlight in 2018 and shifted to executive leadership, founding and presiding over Johnny's Island, a division of Johnny & Associates. In that role, he oversaw the debuts of Snow Man and SixTones, two highly successful boy groups. His career trajectory took another turn when he became vice president of Johnny & Associates in July 2019, a position he held until resigning in November 2022 to explore independent ventures. As an actor and businessman, Takizawa has navigated both creative and corporate worlds. An Aries with a Life Path number 7, Takizawa embodies the introspective strategist archetype—someone drawn to deeper institutional work and quiet influence.
