日裔美国演员詹姆斯繁田，在美国时间28日过世于洛杉矶家中，享寿81岁。詹姆斯出生于夏威夷，是首批成功打入好莱坞的亚裔影星之一，近年最让人记忆犹新的角色，是在1988年的《终极警探》中，饰演被劫企业的高层，但詹姆斯留名影史的，将会是他如何藉作品改变亚裔在美国主流媒体上的面貌。

詹姆斯以歌手出道，原本不会说日语的他，1950年受日本东宝邀请赴日发展，曾连续参加1957、1958年的《红白歌合战》，当年在日本红极一时。他的首部好莱坞电影是1959年的《血色和服》，当时东方人角色几乎都由西方人饰演，配合夸张化妆与滑稽腔调，「白化」诠释接近歧视。但他饰演的警探操着流利英语，甚至发展出跨种族恋情，对提升亚洲人在美国的形象与地位有不可磨灭的地位。

James Saburo Shigeta (June 17, 1929 – July 28, 2014) was an American actor, singer, and musician of Japanese descent. He was noted for his roles in The Crimson Kimono (1959), Walk Like a Dragon (1960), Flower Drum Song (1961), Bridge to the Sun (1961), Die Hard (1988), and Mulan (1998). In 1960, he won the Golden Globe Award for Most Promising Newcomer – Male, along with three other actors.

In his early career, Shigeta often played romantic male lead roles, which were almost nonexistent for an actor of Asian descent during his time, making him a trailblazer in Asian American representation in media. The Goldsea Asian-American Daily magazine listed him as one of the "Most Inspiring Asian-Americans Of All Time".

Before his Hollywood career he found success as a pop singer and performer abroad, especially in Japan and Australia.
