PPAP singer receives a pineapple-shaped award for his special appreciation of fruits

By now, almost every one of us has probably heard of Pikotaro – the Japanese singer-songwriter behind the viral PPAP (Pen-Pineapple-Apple-Pen) song.

Recently, this Japan native made internet headlines again when he received a pineapple-shaped certificate for his efforts in raising “fruit awareness” to the public.

Japan Today reports that since the song’s release, a company known for producing packaged fruits and veggies has experienced a significant increase in their pineapple sales.

Whether you agree with the company’s decision to reward him or not, it looks like Pikotaro will be singing and dancing his way to the top . You do you, Pikotaro!
