Nobel prize winner praises Arashi’s Sho Sakurai

Arashi’s Sho Sakurai (28) traveled to Moscow to meet a former head of state and to the Berlin wall as part of his special report for Nippon TV’s 24Hr TV, reports Sports Hochi.

Sakurai’s special, titled “嵐・櫻井翔が緊急リポート！　世界の貧困と格差社会の現実～マンホールで暮らす人々とは～ (Arashi - Sho Sakurai’s Breaking News! The reality of global poverty and social disparity ~people who live in manholes~ )” sent him to Moscow to interview Nobel Peace Prize winning former head of state Mikhail Gorbachev (79).

Mr Gorbachev is widely known as the man whose actions lead to the end of the Cold War around the late 1980s, early 1990s. After Mr Gorbachev heard Sakurai had been interviewing a wide range of people in different places for his “NEWS ZERO” series “世界平和への祈り (Sekai Heiwa heno Inori, A Prayer for World Peace)” over the past year, the nobel prize winner applauded Sakurai for his efforts.

“I am very happy to meet a responsible person like you.

“I hope more and more people will be able to think not only about themselves, but also about the suffering the people around them are going through, and want to help them,” he said.

After Sakurai had introduced himself in Russian, Mr Gorbachev pushed aside Sakurai’s prepared notes.

“I want to hear about your opinions,” he told a confused Sakurai.

The interview went on for more than 30 minutes, during which the two talked about poverty, economic instability, and peace operations.

It has been reported Sakurai was still shaking after his interview.

“It was an incredible priviledge to have met a person I watched on the news as a young boy,” he said.

His latest adventure had sent him reporting from Moscow to the Berlin wall, and to Romania.

“It’s been 20 years since the Cold War ended. How has the world changed. I hope I can make people in Japan think about how one person’s situation can affect others,” he said.

“嵐・櫻井翔が緊急リポート！　世界の貧困と格差社会の現実～マンホールで暮らす人々とは～ (Arashi - Sho Sakurai’s Breaking News! The reality of global poverty and social disparity ~people who live in manholes~ )” will air on “24時間テレビ33「愛は地球を救う」(24Hr TV 33 ‘Love Saves the Earth’)” on August 29 in Japan.

It's so great to see Sho being serious from time to time, because they make him look far too ridicolous in Arashi's show!

I can't believe MatsuJun will be 27 next Mon O_O

i just realized that his birthday is on the same day as natsuniji! :mini at first i was gonna write matsuniji, LOL.

speaking about him turning 27, yesterday i asked my mom how old jun looked, and she actually said 26 or 27. but she says they all looked young. she also thought ohno was nowhere near 30 :roflmao i couldn't stop laughing.

all of them looked 'right' for their age but Ohno's an exception

no way would I believe that he will be 30 this coming Nov at all if you never say anything about this :O

at least your mum didn't said 18 when you ask her to guess Ohno's age you know :roflmao

it happened for DAIGO's case a while back ago when I asked my friend to ask her friends to guess his age

Nobody said 32 at all , they all thought he's either 25 if not 18 lmao

my mom thought ohno was like..24, LOL. she thought all of arashi were in their early-twenties, pretty much. but really their in their late-twenties. :P i showed her the To be free booklet because of the body and face close-ups :P

aha that's cute xD

yeah , whoever said that they're old farts & etc , should put a sock in it :innocent

you want to see old ? just look at their debut pics , now that's what I called looking old while being trapped in a teenager body :O

LOL :laugh

i wonder how they will look in another 10 years. i think by then, if they still look good like they do now, then it's official: they just WON'T age. ever! :roflmao
