This ticks me off because it's such an unreliable source, yet..the evidence seems so real. Well, like the Niigaki fans said on 2ch, we're going to support Kamei to the end.

Nooooooooooooo!

Not another one and not Eri D<
Anyways, the guy knows what he is doing by going to Up-Front agency with all this.
He has to have something against her, that is the only explanation for it. I dont know if they
would actually get rid of her though, by what he said she isnt interested anymore and stopped seeing him. She could make up something at least, like she was young and foolish and learned her lesson which is why she didnt see him anymore, and that might get her from being booted out of MM if anything is even confirmed to begin with.

How come the heading says "Eri Kamei's Old Flame Speaks Out"? They said "Old" so did they have a story previously about the couple b4? Or this is the only news so far... After reading thru the translated content, it doesn't sound like Kamei. Just doesn't ring a bell.

It will be interesting to see how this plays out. The continuation of the press coverage - whether there is new information, images or such -- and depending on what UFA does.

"Saving face" is an oft used strategy.

Even if it's a past event, it can still create enough heat for UFA to feel too uncomfortable.

I really hope nothing comes of this
It would be so upsetting for Eri(if it is Eri) and Morning Musume right now....This makes me really angry, i don't understand why anyone would do this, shes such a sweet girl...this serously takes the edge off of receving Buono's album yesterday..it's fantastic by the way!

crapcrapcrapcrap >.< I hope this isn't true/nothing bad comes of this... Kamei is the biggest reason I even give a crap about MM anymore, heh. Some of the pictures in the article struck me as maybe being Niigaki rather than Kamei (not saying out of any selfish don't-let-anything-happen-to-eri hope, because I wouldn't want to see Gaki screwed over either), but then again I've never been good at the whole blanked-out-face guessing game thing ^^;

Oh man, I was gonna go to bed right now and everything and now I'm all anxious. Heh.

i dont know, im just hoping to keep seeing kamei on morning musume activity

I also hope that this dosn't mean anything bad for Kame. The press is always full of BS

I wonder if this is the same magazine that made an article that I saw a while ago about a former MoMusu whom they named A N-san or something, and that person did too much of uhh something. But it seems it caught nobodys eye. Anyway, the thing I dont get is why they mozaicd the pictures, hell in one of em I cant even tell which ones the guy, not that I'm saying Eri looks like a guy :P

Eri has a boyfriend. I didn't really know that.

Well good luck to her an if she gets married than that will be a different stort. XD
 
 
 silenceglaive
 2008-02-19 11:27
@Konsta ... so far the story tells she had a bf .. not that she has ... whatever is true in that story ...

I agree, this is bad press. Of all scandals, why did they decide to blur these pictures when others on previous occasions were not? It does not makes sense.

I'll tell you what makes sense, though. Someone behind this story wants money and/or attention. Furthermore, a supportive boyfriend would have denied those accusations. I am not convinced enough to believe this story. I mean come on, anyone can submit blurry pictures and a grade D fictional story without providing concrete facts. Heck, even I can find someone with the same physique and similar features as Mari, take cell phone pictures, edit them with mosaic effects, send them to some sleezy tabloid magazine and call myself "her old flame." Until anything is confirmed, then I stand against this Okazaki character.

As a result, this "news" does nothing but tick me off. Boot-to-face, Okazaki...boot-to-face.

The evidence isn't reliable, you can't even tell it's a MM member with those pictures, it could be anyone! However, I don't really care about this, I just hope everything turns out OK and nothing happens to Kame-chan!

@mrmoonlight: it does say that she's friend with Sayumi and Risa, so i'm pretty sure it's not Risa. i'm beginning to get a feeling that there's a possibility that it's Reina, though. but she's not as close friend with Risa as Eri is, so yeah, Eri it is.

@mangomalte - oh geez, I always do that... read stuff way too fast and then miss something and make a stupid comment as a result XP Thanks for letting me know ^^;;

Its funny how stuff like this can be a scandal in japan. I thought the story was kinda sweet... except for how the guys sold the story to the tabloid.

Being American, I don't consider it a scandal unless she shaves her head bald and starts attacking cars with an umbrella.

I hope she survives this, cuz she's probably the best member left in MM.
 
 
 Perazon
 2008-02-19 11:41
cutting_edge, they're only considered scandals because they violate one of the terms (no boyfriend or relationships) of the members' contracts and also ruins the pure image that is a Japanese Idol.

It's a smart marketing strategy, really. They manage to reel in more fans when they're single - more fans= more sales. It also cruelly misleads the fans to think that most of them have a chance. I'm one of them, lol.

Then again, it's a dumb strategy as well. Morning Musume has already lost two major members (Miki and Mari) due to these "rules."
*edit - technically, Aibon as well. She left H!P to be with that old fart.

In my opinion, it can be considered a strength, and a weakness at the same time. Risky business, as they say.

I don't understand why most of you guys believe or even entertain the idea that the article could be true. I'm not a big fan of Kamei but I'm not buying into it as like I said earlier, the style is not Kamei. Shes too shy to be going out and spending time alone with a guy in his room.
 
 
 Vulpi
 2008-02-19 11:51
OH SNAP KAMEI. Is this the first scandal of the new year? 8D

@zam: I agree that it's too quick to be buying into this, but it's annoying to me when people say things like, "Oh, she would never do that!" You don't know her. All you see is what she chooses to show on the outside and that's how it goes for all idols.

zam, with all due respect, your comment on Kamei's shyness is really funny.

What on earth do you know about Kamei and her private-life? Probably as much as I do: Zero.

Hence, there's a fairly good chance that Kamei is just like every other girl out there being a teenager: Having an interest in boys. Like boys have interests in girls. This is a fairly old and common phenomena, also a very global one. Wars have started over this very subject.

I guess i am not going beleive this "scandal" there are loopholes in the content itself.

 2008-02-19 12:09
The time line of this might of been when 6th gen first started. Its not a surprise that the girls might hav bf before joining mm. And continue having bf for the early stages of her career. This guy cannot be trusted with Eri. I hope this story blows over coz there nothing between them now.
Im Scared

waaa eri-chan was slowly becoming one of my favorites... when this scandal popped out... i don't believe it... another scandal to hit MM
 
 
 iueznm
 2008-02-19 12:16
no no no no. It's going to be a graduation for Eri, not a scandal.

That's OLD news... which means, it really isn't news...
don't think it'll do anything...(=_=)

More gossip/rumors again... <_<
I hate those gossip/rumors.

*sigh*
Bad stuff better not come out of this ...

*shakes angry fist at them tabloid*

But whatever happens, I will always support Kamei.

OMG O_O I just want Kamei to stay on MM!!!Please!It's just bad press,and I hope she'll stay >_<
 
 
 Aestivaris
 2008-02-19 12:29
Maybe I miss something, if I do, plz tell.
Why was it obvious that the article was about Kamei?

But anyways, I've been saying this all along,
it is obvious that all of them has or had boyfriends anyways.
Why bother keeping that no bf rule and keep on lying
to the fans? That just makes news for the weekly gossip mags.

in this society....its not unusual for young ladies to have boyfriend...hey...at least she didnt do a Edison Chen thing....that would be horrible...!!!!!

like i always said..with the miki Fujimoto and others.....

i would create a new group where members can have boyfriends, relationships.....becoming more of a women.....
i would called it...hmmm..... Evening Musume !!!!???

SUPPORT KAMEI !!!! she is quite adorable though..quirky personality....

SUPPORT KONNO !!!!

SUPPORT MIKI !!!!

 2008-02-19 12:38
I was really scared while reading that. o_o
I really really really really reaaaalllyyyyy hope that this doesn't kick her out of Morning Musume. They all must be dating. It's just how they can keep it as a secret.
 
 
 sexiah
 2008-02-19 12:39
That is only her ex BF, so i don't think something bad will come out of this. Anyway, I'll not believe this B***S*** until the evidence is reliable.

 2008-02-19 12:40
this isnt really a scandal. She didnt do anything sloppy. She just happened to date a guy when she was in high school. She never got caught "sneaking around" with him or anything. (the way aibon/miki did). Considering it was in the past and it's over with, what repercussions can really happen?

 2008-02-19 12:48
Oh. My. God.
I'm really scared, what will happen!! o_O

OMG im scared i hope kamei wont get kicked out because of that dont worry kamei us fans will always support u till the end =D

@Aestivaris: "A is really close to other teenage members who are similar in age like Sayumi Michishige and Risa Niigaki." that pretty much says that it's Eri. Ai isn't the same age and Reina isn't as close to Risa as Eri.

This better play out well. I thought it sounded kinda cute. Like always, what is there to do but to wait...

We need to think of it from UFA's view... Which sounds terrible to me.
