Hehehe. He was probably looking for the Johnny's Jr Studios, but got lost and ended up at the SMAPXSMAP studio instead. Well, SMAP are just bigger versions of the Johnny's boys. _________________

My bad. ....so when's the next boyband drama coming out?
when isn't there one? all the doramas are populated with at least one member these days or so it seems....not necessarily a bad thing if they can act....unless TAKKY is in it...then it is a bad thing cuz he can't act for shiet.
to think TAKKY and Misaki Ito are going to be starring together in YET ANOTHER older woman-younger guy show...F*CK he just DID one with Kyoko Hasegawa in "Boku no Madonna" and "Majo no Jouken" how repetitively lame can you be man?

Actress Ishihara Marie (42) is to make her TV drama comeback after 15 years in "the wilderness". She will resume using her stage name of Ishihara Mariko, actually her real name which she abandoned shortly after she left Japan to live abroad 15 years ago. She is set to star in a TBS drama series planned for the autumn. She appears on tonight's episode of NHK's English language learning show "Eigo de Shaberanaito" and talks about her years away from showbiz. After making her debut in 1980, Ishihara became one of the country's top actresses following the success of the drama series "Fuzoroi no Ringo-tachi". But with an image as being outspoken and following a series of scandals, she left for Los Angeles in 1991. In 1993, she published a book of nude photos called "Marie!" She lived briefly in Paris before returning to the US. During those years she studied astronomy and psychology at college. She finally came back to Japan in 2004 and, finding that country had changed a lot, decided to stay.
• Actress Amami Yuki was recognized this week for her contributions to broadcasting last year. In its annual Galactic Awards, the Japan Council for Better Radio and Televesion chose Amami for the individual award following her starring roles in four separate TV drama series in 2005. In particular, her role as the "demon" teacher in "Jo no Kyoshitsu" on the NTV network was hugely successful. The award for best TV show went to the TBS drama "Tiger & Dragon". _________________

AKB48 may be the pop group of the moment. Yesterday all 37 members of the idol group appeared in Akihabara, the spiritual home of Japan's geek culture and the place where offshoots like maid cafes and the concept of "moe" were born. They performed 12 songs including their second single "Skirt, Hirari", wearing mini-skirts which they duly flashed to reveal their "bloomers" underneath. All pure schoolboy fantasy stuff that had the 1,000 fans screaming for more. The group - the AKB is an abbreviation of Akihabara - were formed in 2005 as two troupes of 24 members, though the numbers have dropped to 20 and 17. One troupe performs every day at a special theater in the district nicknamed "Electric Town". With tickets priced at \1,000, the marketing concept is to have a group that fans can afford to "meet" every day. The oldest member is 22 and most are in their mid-teens. It remains to be seen whether AKB48 can have the broad appeal or staying power to become the new Morning Musume.
• Singer/songwriter Otsuka Ai (23) is making her move to the big screen. She is currently in New York filming scenes for the movie version of "Tokyo Friends". It follows on from the DVD drama series in which she starred with model/actor Eita and actresses Kobayashi Mao, Matsumoto Rio and Maki Yoko, all beautiful people and all 23 years old. The DVD drama plot revolved around Otsuka's character and her move to Tokyo to form a band. Eita's character was taken on as the vocalist but he diappeared. The movie finds him living in the Big Apple where Otsuka tracks him down. The movie is due for release in August.
• Fans of Carlos Santana will probably already know of the legendary album "Lotus", recorded live during two concerts in Osaka in 1974. The album captured Santana during the heart of their jazz-rock period and is considered one of the best live albums ever recorded. The huge 11-part album sleeve, designed by Yokoo Tadanori (69), is expected to enter the Guinness Book of World Records this month as the biggest ever. It was also hugely exensive to produce, with Japan at the time suffering from high paper prices resulting from the "oil shock". The album is to be re-released this week on CD, with a scaled-down version of the original sleeve. _________________
