Eri + W= kawaii
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=spl3-3erBBA
0:57 and the Yuko at the end. Eri was so clueless lol. I love Yuko's personality xD and it goes without saying that konno is super cute! Don't you miss the old days with hello pro :(

Let's get this guy!
*me, you, and amydien beat him up with metal poles, bats, and chains*
Me: hey, you dead yet?
Douche:uh.......not really
Me:....................KAMEHAMEHAAA!!!! YAY mission accomplished!
*Maki shows up(shes so cute) and we rush her back to the safe house with us*
Alright! Maki's one of us now!!!

Now time for Operation Morning Twilight! First step: See which MM girls have a ps3! We already have Tsuji down.

OT: lol crazy japanese racists! That's cool that you got to talk to someone from japan. I always wanted to use my ps3 as sort of a penpal kinda thing. Where I can talk to a japanese person. I'm trying to learn japanese(well, I've been so busy with school I've barely had the chance) so maybe I'll test it on nozomi. I can read gana and kana and I'm learning kanji. I didn't get to talk to nozomi. Right after I became friends with her she had to leave and just said "sorry/bye". She seemed like a cool person tho. We played together a LBP and we even to a pic together and she made it really big and stuck it on the floor

LOL!

What random conversation you guys are having! XDDD


Anyway, Im sure you already know about this, but whatever....Momusu isnt invited to this year's Kouhaku. Their 10-year history ends. Im kinda sad, and there's this little part inside me that wants to blame the current line up for it, BUT I won't. Im sure Momusu isnt slacking off...they may not be doing as well as the older gens did but Im sure they're trying hard for themselves.

Or maybe Kouhaku got tired of watching Morning Musume medleys every year. Gah. :sighw:

None of the H!P acts are invited too. AKB48 isnt even invited. :[
Gackt is not invited either. BoA is not invited either. *flood of tears*
Oh well.....


It seems like I only come here to post bad news..lol. *smacks self on the head*

lol, I'll also post happy news when it happens! Sorry about the sad news, although I don't really intend to bring everyone's spirit down. Unfortunately, I have another sad news....

Iida Kaori's first born child just died from chronic renal failure. The boy was just 6-months old :[ Poor Kaori....

Im posting a translated announcement from Kaori's blog and UFA:
It was revealed today that Iida Kaori's 6-month-old child (whose name is not publicly known) died on July 27, 2008 due to chronic renal failure.

---Iida Kaori Comment---

This is a personal matter, but I have some news I would like to share.
On July 27, my son passed away from chronic renal failure.
I loved him more than anyone, and he meant so much to me that all I could do was cry.
At first, I couldn't even think about what lay ahead, but after laying him to rest, I've been slowly able to go out, and had a chance to talk with the staff. I think that what I do from now will be for my son's memory. So I decided that moving forward and staying positive is the best memorial I can give to my son.
Moving forward and staying positive, what does that mean... When I thought about that, I decided that returning to work after my time off, and being in front of my fans for the first time. So I discussed it with the staff.

To help me deal with this, it hasn't just been my family, but my friends and all the staff supporting me. I won't forget my gratitude as I do my best in my own way and work hard for the sake of my son.

I'm sure this has caused trouble and concern for everybody, but please continue to support me.

Iida Kaori


---Up-Front Agency Comment---

Information about Iida Kaori

Iida Kaori (27), who went on maternity leave at the end of the Morning Musume 10th Anniversary concert on September 1, 2007, lost her young son (born January 22) on July 27 as a result of chronic renal failure. He was hospitalised immediately after being born due to kidney problems, and Iida spent her time going to and from the hospital to visit him. But in April, he was released from hospital, and she began spending her days looking after him at home, to the relief of all of us. So this news was a shock to us. At first we had no idea what to even say. But with support from her husband, her parents, and her friends, she's been gradually getting better.

After laying her son to rest at the end of September, we had a chance to meet with her for a discussion. At first she said things like "I can't even think of what lies ahead", but gradually she started to say things such as "Moving on and staying positive would be the best memorial for my son." But what would it mean to move on and stay positive... We discussed this with her many times, and decided it would mean returning to show business after her time off.

We met to decide when and where she should make her comeback, and she agreed that reappearing at the Hello Project Elder Club ~Thank you for your LOVE~ concert that begins on January 10 at Nakano Sun Plaza would be best. She said, "Taking my first new step in front of all the fans who have always supported me seems like the natural thing to do."

Finally, we would like to apologise for the late nature of this news. Please understand it was important for Iida's mental state and forgive us for the delay. And please watch warmly over Iida Kaori as she begins to move forward positively.

NO! I refuse to let this thread die!

Anyways, I got some info some of the old MM members. Fujimoto Miki got engaged not too long ago, Yaguchi Mari got to write an article for Famitsu (I didnt know she was a gamer! according to her blog, it seems that she loves dragon quest), and I got some pretty interesting news on Kago.

Sadly it seems Kago was pulled into yet another scandal :( She was accused of having an affair with a married man! Here's the just of the story: This guy's wife assumed Kago to be trying to date her husband. Because of this they got divorced. Kago admits that she and and him were good friends but not in that way. However, investigation has shown that Kago had sent him a text message saying that she loved him or something like that, but she ended the message jokingly saying "This message is a work of fiction" (good one Kago lol). Further investigation show some surprising evidence. At the guy's appartment, Kago's underwear, makeup, and other products were found! I'm really not sure how this will turn out.

On a happier note, Kago seems to be breaking away from music and becoming more interested in acting. She seems to be excited about the new hong kong movie she will be in, Kung Fu Chefs! In an interview for this movie she even revealed she auditioned for the ne Ju-on movie! Despite this scandal that might just blow over, she seems to finally be making the comeback she promised! Image we miss you kago!

YOOOOOO.... I totally forgot about this thread. IT SHALL BE RISING AGAIN!

I didn't know Yaguchi (Guch) was writing for Famitsu. Maybe that's why Famitsu is so incompetent these days (come on, 32/40 review score for Killzone 2). Guch, I blame you! lol

Kago got what she deserved. Kago you suck! A married man? Come on dude.
That's why you got a stupid laugh Kago. :P

Now, Eri.

Oh baby. That's my woman right there :heart: :heart: :heart:

first of all, Yaguchi doesnt normally write for famitsu now. She just wrote one article recently. She might write more though because she said it is one of her favorite magazines and seemed extremely excited when she said she was writing an article for it (lots of stars and smiley faces lol). I forgot to say this but Yaguchi is also in a few Wii commercials! I sadly havent seen them yet (T_T)

Am I the only one that has any sympathy for Kago anymore?!?!?! I feel sorry for her, how she's getting dragged into all these scandals. This time it looks pretty bad tho. What were you thinking Kago!? hmmmm... I forgot Kago's laugh...time to go hunting for her laugh on youtube then... lol

mmmmmmmm....Eri......no, NO! Gotta stay focused on my old girl Yossi

Well iceman the actual show wasnt called morning musume. The first show that lasted from 2000 to 2007 was called hello morning (I did nt know this when I made the thread :P) imo hello morning was one of the best variety shows Ive seen. their second show that only lasted a year was called haromoni@. I personally think HM was much better than Haromoni@. Sadly I can't find any sites where whole episodes are subbed T_T. bits and pieces of the show with subs are scattered all over youtube, and dailymotion has some full unsubbed episodes. But, yeah, its a REALLY good show

Here's a lil' sumthin'-sumthin' for ya Ice. It's just a small clip of the show, and this particular episode was a "Special". So technically it's not a great representation of the show. But it'll give ya a small idea of why we like it so much ;)

The bus scene is my fav.
