YAY YOUKO HAS HER OWN BLOG
I LOVE HER SO MUCH
thanks for posting!!!

[ChobiMM3]

LIGHTBULB IS SO CUTE!!! I love this girl! Her cover of Aya's Seishun Sensei is what made me a fan of her; her voice is so beautiful!
Ganbare Youko-chan! I hope we get to read more of her blog soon

[Nayok-Kihara]

I really like Lightbulb. Her solo performance where she played the piano and sang did it for me. I think it was her best, and it was beautiful.

Here are all the performances found of Lightbulb during the NEW STAR auditions. The only ones we could find in single-video format, from the main Ice CreaMusume thread.

Performing Aya Matsuura's "Your Song ~Seishun Sensei~" here.
Performing a song on her own on New Star here.
Performing Morning Musume's "I WISH" here.
Performing a duet of Tanpopo's "Koi wo Shichaimsahita" with Su Lin Xin (A.K.A. Risa-Fan)here
Performing a duet with another contestant on New Star here.
Performing a duet with Ke Ming, another contestant on New Star here.

i just re-read her fears and stuff
its so cute that she hates to be alone
i hate being alone too but i like having the house to myself...lol
and she my age and everything
i really love her<3

[Damaged]

Wow~ She's really hammering home the point she doesn't like being on her own Social girl is our Lightbulb.

[ShikyoxYaiba]

Woo! *hops in* I dunno, Lightbulb was the first to grab my attention. It was her perf of I WISH that hooked me... (Did she translate it, or did someone else? Either way, it sounds amazing.) I'm looking forward to hearing her sing. ^__^

[zam（仮）]

how did she get the lightbulb nickname?

[Nayok-Kihara]

I compiled a huge fan-spam post in the Ice CreaMusume thread. Here is everything I posted on Lightbulb, slightly edited to fit the thread.

An old picture of Zhào Guó Róng (Lightbulb, Youko)


Lightbulb's picture from the final episode of the auditions, when Tsunku chose the winners.
Zhào Guó Róng (Lightbulb, Youko)
•-••-••-••-••-••-••-••-••-••-••-•
sougisou posted a few reactions from Tsunku during the final performances in the old Audition thread. Here is the one on Lightbulb:

Tsunku's comments on Lightbulb: Matsuura Aya songs are harder to sing than they look, and she got the melody and Japanese correct. He noted that she lost a lot of weight in 3 months and asked if she got in, if she would put back the weight she lost in a month and she said no. The host then suggested she should ask Tsunku what they will be eating in Japan. She wanted him to ask for her so they ended up doing rock-scissors-paper. She lost so she asked Tsunku what they eat for breakfast lunch dinner. Tsunku said breakfast is nattou, lunch is curry rice, dinner is nattou. The host asked if it's what Tsunku personally likes to eat, and he replied everyone in Morning Musume eats this too. Lightbulb said she'd be able to cope with the menu.

Here are some screen caps of Lightbulb from random episodes of the auditions.

how did she get the lightbulb nickname?

She tends to zone out at strange times, making her reactions to questions from the hosts strange, often comically so. So the host commented that she's like a lightbulb with a bad connection, and the name stuck.

lol
thats so cute!!
i think ill call her youko from now on since its WAY easier than her chinese name lol

ty for the entry aurororagb

[Nayok-Kihara]

I made another big post in the groups main thread. Here is everything dealing with Lightbulb, with the rest cut out.
---------

NEW STAR hunt. o3o I got bored.

I definately see ShenShen (Right behind the middle woman, you can only see part of her head. It looks like she's making a little kissy/choo face or something.), Guu-chan (Over on the right. You've got random-middle-woman, then Risa-Fan beside her, the girl bent down, and then Guu-chan popping her head out right beside her.), PeiPei (Over on the left, she should be easy to spot. Random-middle-woman, random contestant to the left, and then PeiPei.) - I think Lightbulb is the girl in the back row, all the way to the right, the last one.


Lightbulb (on the left) with another contestant.


Lightbulb (on the left again) with.. I think the same girl. I'm not sure.


(I haven't looked through it all, but Lightbulb might show up somewhere in this gallery)
Someones Pixnet gallery with a bunch of NEW STAR pictures that look like they were taken by a contestant, or.. at least someone that was actually -there.-
Pixnet Gallery

Another persons Pixnet gallery, with more NEW STAR pictures that look to be taken from someone that was actually there. Some adorable shots of Lightbulb and Risa-fans duet together!
