Ciao☆ I'm Gurasan (Sunglasses), who writes his own songs.

I'm mortified as some crazy person suddenly told me, "I will never buy your CD ever again". But I will never remove my sunglasses. I believe that everything in life is a trial. Namu~.

I got worried there if they were going to restrict the sales of my CD for a moment there, but it was alright. Well, of course (LOL)

Yuriko Yoshitaka wants to host the Kouhaku together with Yukie Nakama

1: 禿の月φ ★ 2014/01/07(火) 14:17:30.00 ID:???P

Actresses Yuriko Yoshitaka and Yukie Nakama were at a studio in Yokohama for the press conference of NHK's upcoming morning drama Hanako to Anne.

Yoshitaka was asked what she would do if ever she was offered to host the Kouhaku to which she replied: "If I'm the host, I think things would turn into a mess. And when that time comes, I would like to host it together with Nakama-san". 

Nakama, looking a bit perplexed, smiled and answered back, "If I do get invited, I will do my best to help and support her, though...".

Yoshitaka also said that she's having trouble speaking in English in some of the scenes. "It's a good learning experience for me, but I want it to end as soon as possible... I become discouraged with the English-speaking parts". 

The presscon was also atended by Miyoko Asada (housemother of her dorm in Tokyo), Rie Tomosaka (English Teacher) and Rin Takanashi (classmate).

Golden Bomber's new song "101-kaime no noroi" ranks #1 on Oricon

1: 禿の月φ ★ 2014/01/07(火) 04:45:53.55 ID:???P

4-man visual-kei air band Golden Bomber released their new song "101-kai me no noroi" on the 1st day of the new year and sold 158,000 copies, debuting at #1 on the weekly singles ranking dated January 13. This is their follow-up to last year's "Dance my Generation" (also released on new year's day). Their first week sales are up by over 30,000 units from last year's 125,000. The last indie label artist to rank 1st on Oricon was Mongol800 with "Yorokobi no uta" (2003, 12/22-12/29), and Golden Bomber are the first indie artists to have 2 consecutive singles rank 1st.

Singer, songwriter, and composer Sho Kiryuuin comments: "Thank you very much for purchasing our CD m(_ _)m I truly feel how lucky and blessed we are for having people reach out and buy our CD".

Their song "Memeshikute" (released October 2009) which they performed at the 64th Kouhaku also broke into the top 100 once again since May 27 of last year (76th) as it ranked in at 58th for the week.

She doesn't really have a career-defining song.
And it's still a mystery as to why she is still able to participate at the Kouhaku every year.

Broadcasting Accident? Haruka Ayase's blunders as a host at the Kouhaku

1： アトミックドロップ(大阪府) 2013/12/31(火) 22:11:27.99 ID:NTaXesvj0

▼ Says something mysterious at the start: "It's as if the NHK hall is alive".

▼ Forgets her lines while introducing Ayumi Hamasaki, just says: "Hai... hai..." and stops there.

▼ When introducing NMB48, she couldn't pronounce the name "Enu Emu Bee" properly and chokes on her words.

▼ Pronounces "Hatsu shutsujou" *(first time performance) as "Hatsu shuchujou".

▼ Couldn't react well to Akihiro Miwa's foreign language and chooses to ignore it.

▼ Asks Ryotaro Sugi "Sugi-san Ikaga desu ka?" *(How do you find it, Sugi-san?), judge and husband of singer Natsuko Godai, the same question 2x, before and after his wife's performance and draws a weird reaction from him.

▼ Forgets the name of Yoshimi Tendo's song

▼ Sings "Hana wa saku" → reduced to tears

▼ Because Ayase cried, Tekken's bit had to be cut from the program as they shifted to the news report.

▼ When introducing aiko's song, she said "aiko-san's Momo..." instead of "aiko-san's Loveletter".


▼ She doesn't look at the camera too much, leaving a lot of viewers feeling anxious and worried.

NHK's public relations comments on Yuko Oshima's graduation announcement

1： 三毛猫φ ★ 2014/01/01(水) 00:26:02.54 ID:???0

NHK's public relations gave their comments about Yuko Oshima's announcement of her graduation from AKB48 at the live broadcast of the 64th Kouhaku Uta Gassen on the 31st.

NHK's public relations representative looked surprised and commented, "We at NHK were not informed about this", after AKB48's performance when a reporter asked for comments.

Yuko Oshima suddenly announced her graduation from AKB48 in between songs of their medley.
"This will be my last time performing at the Kouhaku Uta Gassen like this", as they performed AKB's trademark song "Heavy Rotation" with Oshima as the center. Minami Takahashi and Rino Sashihara were in tears during the performance, but Oshima kept smiling throughout the performance. She did seem to have watery eyes during the final pose of the song.

Ayumi Hamasaki to get married to an American medical student

1： ぷちとまとφ ★ 2013/12/13(金) 17:30:49.54 ID:???0

Ayumi Hamasaki (35) announced through her fansite "Team Ayu" on Dec. 13 that she will be marrying an American medical student (25) from UCLA. According to representatives, Hamasaki headed to L.A. on the 12th and proceeded to settle their engagement. Hamasaki met the man during the New Year break early this year, and they started dating around springtime. This will be her second marriage.  

Hamasaki previously married Austrian actor Manuel Schwarz on January 1, 2011 in Las Vegas, but got divorced on Jan. 16, 2012. News that she was actually registered as single broke out during her "divorce" as she did not officially submit her marriage registry to California and Japan. She also announced her relationship with backup dancer Maroka Uchiyama (29) in November 2012, but broke up with him in January this year due to Uchiyama not having formally divorced his previous wife.

A certain girl unit "E" has a bad reputation within the industry?

1： やるっきゃ希志あいのφ ★ 2013/12/11(水) 13:18:56.61 ID:???0

This certain girl group "E" has just been selected to perform at this year's NHK Kouhaku Uta Gassen for the first time.

This is a project group which consists of 3 girl units under the same agency, but it's safe to say that the public only knows of the girl "A" from the group "D" along with some of their more popular members.

* They're becoming more conceited?

This group is still considered as rookies within the industry. They are still being bartered together with their senpai group, but are already getting a bad reputation within the industry as a conceited group of girls. A music program staff reveals: "You'll be surprised at how arrogant they are. They never greet assistant directors and the lower staff, while they all gang up and glare nastily at the other female talents of the same age. They just lie around in their dressing room, and to sum it up, they have no class at all. When you listen to their conversations, it's all about men and rumors about other people. Even their manner of speech is like, 'Who do 'ya think y'ar?', and it's pretty hard to imagine that this group comes from the same agency as Mr. H, who's very fussy about manners and etiquette".

Akiko Wada reveals the backstage situation at the Kouhaku: "I use Arashi's or Nakai's toilet"

1： ：禿の月φ 2013/12/03 13:32:20

Akiko Wada, who has become a staple at NHK's Kouhaku Uta Gassen, has revealed some secrets about what goes on behind the stage of the year-end event.

It is said that there are more or less 300 people participating in the Kouhaku this year which will be held on the 31st of December. All singers aspire to go up on the stage of the NHK hall during the last day of the year, but the venue isn't what one could particularly call "huge." So how do the performers get around backstage?

This topic was featured in Wada's program Akko ni omakase! last December 1. There are apparently 7 dressing rooms at the NHK hall.

The 1st dressing room is used by the male host(s), which means that Arashi will be utilizing this again this year. The 2nd dressing room is allocated for the female host, which means this will go to Haruka Ayase. The 3rd dressing room is reserved for the most distinguished male singers such as Saburo Kitajima, Hiroshi Itsuki, and the like, while the 4th dressing room is reserved for the female singers such as Akiko Wada, Yoshimi Tendo, etc.

E-Girls to perform at the Kouhaku this year

1： かばほ～るφ ★ 2013/11/24(日) 12:03:33.79 ID:???0

Note: (Date of article: Nov. 24, before the official announcement. We'll have the official announcement thread soon)
EXILE's sister group E-Girls are confirmed to have received the unofficial notice that they will be joining the lineup of this year's NHK Kouhaku Uta Gassen.

They have won the right to perform at the Kouhaku ahead of the other girl groups. Their 3rd single "Follow Me" ranked 2nd in last year's Oricon weekly charts which marked their breakthrough. They released their first album Lesson 1 last April and ranked 1st in the weekly rankings.

AKB and MomoClo are expected to take part in the event with NMB48 also looking likely to participate. A lot of girls' dreams were shattered along the way, but those who have survived the EXILE family's rigorous singing and dancing training regime have gone on to form the E-Girls in 2011. 

One condition to participate in the Kouhaku is how much the group has contributed to NHK. They have been able to appear as hosts on NHK's E-Tele program Aoyama Wansegu Kaihatsu (Fridays 00:30), taking over the hosting duties from MomoClo.

In October of this year, the E-Girls' central figure Ami (25) commented: "We want to participate in the Kouhaku and make people more aware of the E-Girls. We want to fulfill our dreams."

The girls, who have inherited EXILE's spirit, will now be making their gracious performance on the stage of their dreams.
