Kenji Darvish of Golden Bomber: "That pissed me off. Why would shop employees tweet that?"

There has been no end to instances of celebrities being tweeted about our photographed when seen out in the street, and Kenji Darvish has expressed his anger on his blog after experiencing a similar fate.

July 8, Darvish updated his blog: "Apologies for this late night update... I just got pissed off". Darvish did not mention the name of the restaurant, the person, and the tweets in question, but he said: "I was just eating at a restaurant a while back, and I'm not sure if that guy was a staff member, but it seems that person tweeted the events as they went on; in full detail".

"It didn't seem like anyone noticed me at all... Where were they watching me from? Scary!". "To think that the food was actually good. How should I put it, this just left me with such a bad aftertaste. Actually, it gave me a bad impression.".

Not just celebrities, but intrusion into one's privacy is generally not accepted. "Why would shop employees tweet something like that? Weren't they taught not to do such a thing? I have experience in customer service and I really don't get this. I don't think I can eat out in peace anymore. It's all so troublesome." "Stress! I'll go run for a bit."

Other Twitter incidents involving celebrities are Junichi Inamoto and Miho Tanaka's date before they got married in 2011, which turned into a huge media circus. Recently, Kyary Pamyu Pamyu and Ebizo Ichikawa both complained about being pictured without permission last month. Akemi Darenogare and Hachimitsu Jiro also complained about similar incidents soon after.

The return of Goro Inogashira -- Kodoku no Gurume Season 4 to start in July


1: エタ沈φ ★@\(^o^)/:2014/05/20(火) 08:42:33.28 ID:???0.net
Late night drama Kodoku no Gurume (TV Tokyo) will make its return this July after a year of "starvation".

Kodoku no Gurume, a food documentary drama series, is about a personal import agent, Goro Inogashira (played by Yutaka Matsushige), who goes on an endless journey in search of good food. All shops and restaurants shown in the drama are actual restaurants as viewers have been flocking to those places that have been featured to have a taste of the food featured on the show.

Matsushige will once again reprise his role of Goro as the "lone gourmet" and eat to his heart's content. Season 4 will focus on "returning to its roots". The staff will search for the restaurants and the food that they want Goro to eat, and this season will once again feature "yakiniku" which has appeared in every season to date. And not just the city, Goro goes on various business trips and will visit places such as Hakone. 

Matsushige comments: "They didn't find anything wrong with me during my general checkup so I'll be doing this again. With 36 episodes already, we've run out of restaurants and things to feature. We might have to reuse some of the scenes we did before. And when people turn 51, they don't eat as much as they used to. I might have to ask a stand-in to take my place during the dining scenes. If that's all fine with you, then please put on your pajamas and brush your teeth first before watching this drama.".

Police needed for crowd control after someone revealed that Shun Oguri was at a yakiniku restaurant



1: 禿の月φ ★ 2014/02/13(木) 07:07:34.17 ID:???P
One night last January, Shun Oguri (31) was seen at a yakiniku restaurant in Fukuoka Prefecture's Kokura. The shop, which will be celebrating its 30th anniversary in the near future, has no private rooms and only has 6 tables that can seat 4 persons each. The quality of the meat and the taste of the food have very high reputations, so the restaurant is always full, even as it opens.

"Oguri-san was on location in Kokura at that time for a drama shoot, and set out for dinner with the staff and his co-actors." - (TV station staff)

The group enjoyed their makgeolli, kalbis, and innards, but eyewitness reports quickly spread out on Twitter.

A local resident comments, "I heard from my friend that Oguri-kun was here and invited me to go and see him. It was about 10 in the evening but I immediately went to the place, but there were already about 50 people there.".

Despite it being in the freezing winter night, there were a lot of men and women in pajamas, and even a young mother with her baby outside the store, hoping to catch a glimpse of the star. There were even a number of taxis filled with fans parked outside.

"The restaurant staff said that they didn't want to bother the neighbors so they asked the people to leave, but no one did. Oguri-san had to film some scenes the following day, but couldn't even leave the restaurant... Apparently, the female manager of the shop was furious with the fans. That manager was a very strict person when it came to manners, and she eventually had to throw salt to drive the people away." - (regular customer of the restaurant)

The situation got worse, as the police had to enter the scene.

Masaki Aiba in hot water with Johnny's due to his family's restaurant?


1: ジャストフェイスロック(岡山県) 2013/11/17(日) 11:45:54.91 ID:Cc0P4hnr0
Following Koki Tanaka's (27) departure from Johnny's, Arashi's Masaki Aiba (30) has also been the subject of dismissal rumors, and what seems to be the indicator of this is his schedule. Aiba still doesn't have any new solo projects after the new year.

"Unfortunately, there has been no news of new dramas or movies for Aiba. All he has now are a total of only 4 shows: Arashi's main programs Arashi ni Shiyagare (NTV) and VS Arashi (Fuji), as well as Tensai! Shimura doubutsuen (NTV) and Aiba Manabu (TV Asahi). There are already rumors within the TV industry that it'll only be a matter of time until Aiba is entirely frozen out. - (broadcast writer)

Why is this happening to Aiba? Behind this lies a feud between the restaurant that Aiba's family runs and the Johnny's agency itself.

"The reason for their discord is the goods sold at the restaurant. The keychain of the letter "K", taken from the initial of the shop is selling like hotcakes, but it seems that the shop is taking advantage of the Arashi members' signatures, as well as the gifts given by fans to Aiba as decorations in the shop to entice the people to buy the goods."
- (informant
)

The restaurant located in Chiba has gained popularity as this is also where Aiba grew up, and news of this has reached some executives at Johnny's.

"The agency is definitely angry at this. They don't even allow the signatures of their talents to be displayed. The agency eventually requested them to remove the signatures, the presents for Aiba, and to cancel their branch opening at the Tokyo Sky Tree. The restaurant responded to the the removal of the signatures and the goods, but have not given up on opening a branch in Tokyo." - (staff)

And this is apparently the reason why Aiba's position seems to be in danger.
