  Morning Musume interview in Gravure Television magazine  
  Written by B.Slade & Kuno, updated: 7:18, 18-Jul 2009  
     
  In the newest issue of Gravure Television magazine, the members of Morning Musume are interviewed for their latest single, Nanchatte Renai. Since it's their 40th single, the questions center around the number 40.

We've translated all the questions and answers, and included the scans as well. Enjoy!
 
     
  Full Story  
     
 

The Musume are getting sexier these days, and now they're showing off a "Sexy Little Devils Shot" in knee-high socks. Their 40th single "Nanchatte Renai" goes on sale August 12 (Wed), so we had them answer "questions about 40"!






"If you had 40 days off, what would you want to do?"

Tanaka: Well, I'd go back to my hometown to hang out for about five days, then take a trip. There's a farm for bears in Aso that I've been to before, and I want to go there again!

Mitsui: I'd go with my sister to Korea and Hawaii, then come back to Saga. I'd spend about 10 days in Korea, and I hear they have cheap cosmetics there, so I'd want to buy some.

Kusumi: I don't need 40 days. Two weeks would be enough. I'd have too much free time, I'd probably die (lol) And it's better to be working anyway!

Tanaka: Yeah, it makes you feel like you're alive. Oh, in that case, I'd like to try a part-time job. I want to work in a fast-food place or a clothing shop.

Mitsui: Once someone working in a shop suggested that to me. She asked, "Are you interested in working in apparel?"

Tanaka: That's right, when Aika said, "Doesn't this one look good?", the lady in the shop said that (lol). Working part-time, I want to see how much it takes to be self sufficient these days.

Kusumi: It's just the normal wage, isn't it?

Tanaka: Around 600 yen an hour?

Kusumi: That's enough for Niigata, or somewhere in the country! It takes more than that in Tokyo!

Tanaka: But I wouldn't be in Tokyo, if I had 40 days off.

Kusumi: Oh, right. Then instead of a part-time job, I'll go and learn yoga.

Mitsui: Oh, I want to learn scuba diving and go underwater!






"If the world were ending in 40 days..."

Niigaki: I'd want to go on as usual, spending time with the other members and my family and continuing to work. If I didn't do that, I think I'd be counting, "How many days left?" (lol)

Kamei: You'd definitely be counting. I'd make sure I spent all my money!

LinLin: Oh, that's good!

Kamei: I'm 20 now, so I've been really concerned with conserving and being eco-friendly. But it would be nice not having to think about things like that.

Niigaki: It really wouldn't be the time to say things like, "Saving the Earth is something we can do today!" (lol)

Kamei: That's right. You could just live for yourself in those final days.

LinLin: I'd become somebody who can save the Earth, like Sailor Moon, then I'd save the Earth!

Niigaki: Oh, you'd save it?

LinLin: That's right. Hero LinLin-man! (lol)

Kamei: That didn't occur to me. (lol)

Niigaki: In that case, you'd have to be eco-friendly. And you couldn't spend all your money.

Kamei: I guess so. (lol) But how would you become a hero?

LinLin: Somebody would see me suddenly and say, "You are a warrior who can save the Earth!" And in a flash, I'd transform.

Kamei: That's just in comics (lol). That couldn't happen, LinLin (lol)!

Niigaki: LinLin really does get comics and reality mixed up sometimes. (lol)






"Try to imagine yourself at age 40!"

Takahashi: [Choreographer] Natsu Mayumi-sensei said, "A woman's life begins at 40." She says your 40s are really fun. If that's the case, then I want to reach my 40s quickly. I don't know what I'll be like then, but I hope I'll be someone who can express herself.

Michishige: So cool! I don't want to be like "I've gotten older, so I don't want to be seen." I always want to be someone who wants to be seen. I definitely don't want to shut myself out from everyone around me!

JunJun: I can't wait to see what kind of face I have at age 40. Lately, I've been looking at old photos and thinking I looked so cute. I think my face has changed now. So, I think it would be best if my face doesn't change from how it is now, even when I'm in my 40s. That way I could still be in Morning.

Takahashi: You'd still be doing it? You'd have to do a lot of dancing (lol)

Michishige: I'd definitely collapse.

JunJun: Age doesn't matter. I think if you're always up on stage, you'll look young. I think I'd be able to dance okay.

Takahashi: Yeah, I guess you'd be pretty healthy if you kept on dancing like that.

Michishige: Amazing. For me, it depends on strength. That is, training myself up from where I am now depends on how hard I'm willing to try. (lol)

JunJun: I think it would be fun!

Michishige: But I think I'd rather watch my own kids dancing than be dancing myself. (lol)
