Uh oh... Scandal!

Poor poor Mii chan...

In the Latest issue of Shukan Bunshun it was reported that our beloved 1st Gen Miichan spent the night at Shirahama Alan's (GENERATIONS) place. They both also starred in Moshimo Kimi ga together.

Whats next ... a demotion...
Starting yesterday, Feburary 1st, Miichan has been demoted to Kenkyuusei...When it is decided they will announce Minegishis further activities.

Oh.. nearly forgot... She shaved her head...

....Speechless...

I would post the video but.... im lazy...

so here is the translation.

I am very sorry for worrying the members, you fans, staff members, my family, and many people for the article about me on a weekly magazine that will be released today. As the first generation member of AKB48 that was formed back in 2005, I was supposed to be in the position where I always had to act as a role model for the junior members. However, what I have done was such a thoughtless and a lack of self-awareness behavior. Since my mind is still in blank, I did not know what to do or what I can do, but as I just saw the magazine, I could not sit still, so I decided all by myself to shave my head without even telling the members or my agency. I do not expect that I would be forgiven by doing this, but what I first thought was that I did not want to quit AKB48. I was unable to think of leaving AKB48 now where the members I love and spent my youth together, and you warm fans are. I know this is being over‐optimistic, but I want to stay as Minegishi Minami of AKB48 if possible. It was all my fault about this. I am very sorry. I will leave everything to Akimoto-sensei’s and the management’s judgement. Though I haven’t been able to sort out my feelings, I just wanted to tell you how I was feeling right now. 

Thank you.

Kasai Tomomi and Matsuda Shiori

Kasai Tomomi will appear on reality TV show [1ヶ月1万円生活]. In this show, the contestants are given 10,000 yen to cover all living expenses for one month. This roughly translate to 125 US dollars, so it is a very tight budget, and the show is about how they survive living off this tiny amount of money.

At the end of the month, the contestant with the most amount of money left over is the winner. Tomomi will be up against economic analyst Morinaga Takurou, and comedian Yoshimura Takashi from Heisei Nobushikobushi. The show will start airing from the 18th October 2012.

I hope all goes well with Tomo and she survives O.o....

THE FREAKIN 5TH MEMBER TO GRADUATE FROM NMB!!!!

Matsuda Shiori will be graduating from NMB in order to focus on her studies..

This was announced by Matsuda herself during Team N’s concert on October 18th at NMB48 Theater in Osaka. Her graduation concert will be held on the 24th.

Message on groups official blog:

“From shortly before, I wasn’t able to have confidence in continuing my activities as NMB48. So I was troubled, thinking it would be better to prioritize my studies and return to being a normal girl. I thought that I would trouble the members and fans if I continued my activities with a half-hearted attitude. I thought that it would reflect on my performance.” 

Matsuda became NMB48’s first generation member back in October of 2010 and was the senbatsu member for their debut song, “Zetsumetsu Kurokami Shoujo” (released July 2011). Last September, she temporarily suspended her activities, but was able to return early this year due to the fans’ votes.

Omg... whats going on with everything this is the 5th member to graduate in a row! I wonder if its just that they all have boyfriends and trying to avoid harsh scandals? Oh well i hope it's just a waaaaaayy longer time before any of our oshi's go away...
