Yea, and the problem is that we have a lot of these type of bad actors as features already. So unless we plan to delete all those that exist to keep things fair, I think we should keep it simple with the feature. I mean, not EVERY artist needs one so we shouldn't go all crazy with it. If there's a suggestion, I'll go through with it, whoever the artiste is. Fans are fans, and it's way too hard to determine who's better than who, especially since we haven't seen every actor/actress in action.
I'm not being a pain on purpose. Just trying to be fair.

That's what I'm afraid of. They might be good looking and sing well, but a few of them should take acting lessons. :sweat:
Seriously.
I'm not anti-johnny's; some of them are really great actors and can do different roles, but some should stick to getting their pictures taken.
I'm not anti-johnny...i'm anti-sexual molester also known as anti-johnny...kitagawa himself. :hehe:
That goes for a lot of females as well. By the time they reach 25, everybody will have forgot em.
As so goes the truth...because that is indeed what happens....many of them are cast, whether deservingly or not, in some shows until it becomes widely apparent they can't act and are relegated to playing the same one trick pony show until the rabid fetish for youth in japanese entertainment crowns a new starlet and the has beens are put out to pasture with the goats.
That's why high school doramas are big business in Japanese TV....you have to keep churning them out for the lame asses who often times can't act. How many high school doramas can one stomach man? Can you imagine seeing that many shows about clueless high schoolers in N. America?

I wasn't suggesting you delete anything I was just lamenting the dearth of talent among the young geinojin in Japan.
That's why people need to use the Quote function... So we don't spend a buncha posts trying to figure out which post the member is referring to... :grumble:
Monday is Marine Day in Japan, a holiday many people celebrate by taking a trip to the beach. This year, Oricon asked a thousand men, "Which gravure idol would you want to go to the beach with?"
The top choice was popular talento Aki Hoshino, who is often #1 in similar surveys. #2 was Misako Yasuda, and #3 was non-Japanese idol Leah Dizon.
The other top answers were Chinatsu Wakatsuki, Megumi Yasu, Azusa Yamamoto, Sayaka Isoyama, Jun Natsukawa (tied with Isoyama), Yoko Kumada, and Yuko Ogura.

If I were given the chance...I would choose....Yui Ichikawa! I'll just bring a swimming cap and let her wear it...(to cover her satellite ears! :hehe: )

LOL...a swimming cap...i think you'd have to bring the pool cover.....
actually mr. potato head would have given a less wooden portrayal as Nana Komatsu. during the brutally hot summer months at least her ears can fan her friends to cool them off.
