In this captivating episode of Breakfast with Tiffany Show, host Tiffany Rossdale invites Jason Hancock to share his inspiring journey from a small town in Nebraska to becoming a well-respected figure in Japan's entertainment and advocacy circles. Jason’s connection to Japan began in his university days as a volunteer in Hokkaido, where he fell in love with Japanese culture and language. This passion led him back to Japan after graduation, where he built an impressive career that included winning the prestigious National Japanese Speech Competition and becoming the first American accepted into the Tokyo School of Music for musical dance theater.
Jason's life in Japan unfolded with remarkable achievements, including numerous appearances on TV, stage, and film, which contributed to his success in the Japanese entertainment industry. However, in 2017, Jason pivoted his career towards advocacy by founding Special Beauty Japan, the first-ever beauty pageant in Japan for youth with special needs. His mission was to provide a platform for individuals with intellectual disabilities, such as Down syndrome and autism, to shine. Through this groundbreaking event, Jason has empowered many young people, championing the beauty of inclusivity and the importance of representation for marginalized groups.
A lover of music and ritual, Jason describes his unique morning routine, which is set to a motivational playlist that jumpstarts his day. Tiffany and Jason explore the power of music and its role in maintaining focus and positivity, even amidst demanding schedules. Jason also shares his love for musical theater, revealing that Backstage Romance from the Moulin Rouge Broadway soundtrack has become his go-to track for motivation. His passion for the theater even led him to see Moulin Rouge six times this year, both in Japan and on Broadway, solidifying his dedication to the art form.
As the conversation unfolds, Tiffany and Jason reflect on how each of these experiences has shaped Jason’s life, allowing him to bring his talents and passion for diversity and inclusion to new heights in Japan. His story is one of resilience, growth, and unwavering dedication to making a difference, not just for himself but for the communities he supports. This episode is a testament to the power of following one’s passion and creating impactful change, and it’s sure to inspire listeners to embrace their unique journeys with courage and optimism.
