What's that on Massu's left ear? Is it a new piercing? If so, is there any other pictures of it?

LONJJONG 25th June 2013 09:09 AM

Looking forward for their new album!!

Nope exactly new. He started wearing it from the Tegomasu no Mahou period. It looks really nice on him imo.

Bigtop 25th June 2013 03:41 PM

What type of piercing is it, if anybody knows?

jiarongisme 25th June 2013 04:52 PM

Actually, it's an ear cuff. So there wasn't exactly a piercing.

http://i40.tinypic.com/doo076.jpg

But if you're looking for a piercing in that area, it's either the conch or the snug.

Press Conference For Tomohisa Yamashita's Starring Drama "Summer Nude" Held Through A Barbecue Party

Quote:

Now that July is fast approaching, Tomohisa Yamashita's anticipated drama "Summer Nude" held a fun and unusual production conference through a barbecue party. Following the theme of summer, the star-studded cast of this Getsu 9 drama and invited media people appeared on June 24 at a pool side place.

Yamashita revealed that he recently got his water scooter license which he will be needing while filming the drama. He added that riding it would be a perfect bonding moment with someone he feels dearly for.

Present at the event, Karina and Erika Toda denied the rumours that they became enemies after co-starring in the 2007 drama "Ushi ni Negai wo Love & Farm" and laughed on the news instead. Moreover, the two actresses, as well as Masami Nagasawa are the woman in Mikuriya Asahi's (Yamashita) life in this upcoming TV series.

Summer Nude will start airing on Fuji TV on July 8 and will be shown every Mondays at 9PM.

YesAsia's description of SUMMER NUDE '13

Quote:

Yamashita Tomohisa is headlining Fuji TV's new primetime drama Summer Nude, a seaside romance co-starring Karina and Toda Erika. He is also singing the drama's theme song Summer Nude '13, a remake of Magokoro Brothers' nineties hit Summer Nude. Arranged by Chokkaku and Okamoto, Yamapi's version offers a bright new summer jam for 2013.

I think it's Yamapi's 1st B-side to get a PV as I don't recall any of his past B-sides had any to begin with

Should be something to look out for . I wonder if SUMMER NUDE '13 can get #1 , he hasn't gotten any #1's since Ai Texas

31st July is going to be tough :dead2

He has been releasing in this format for the past few singles. Usually those versions come with a collectable trading card. And it's much cheaper too.

KarenPang 5th July 2013 07:47 AM

Obviously for someone who barely even supports/listens to Yamapi (let alone NEWS) wouldn't know about all these minor nitty gritty details :o

But for the record , so far only Yamapi has done this 500 Yen single release format for Ke・Sera・Sera + SUMMER NUDE '13

I will not count Hadakanbo even though that was released/sold for 525 Yen

I think my fave is the CD + DVD A + he wears pink which's a homage to his nickname , how cool's that ?

the "SUMMER NUDE '13" covers are nice! my favorite is the CD LE. :)

jiarongisme 9th July 2013 09:34 AM

He has a really weird expression there though. Doesn't really look like him, slightly fiendish. My favorite would probably be LE C. Typography and photography both look really great in there. :yes

Now that I think about it, I wonder if LE B was meant to look like Nirvana's Nevermind cover :laugh

KarenPang 13th July 2013 04:04 AM

Guess Warner Music spent too much $ on Ke Sera Sera as in all aspect from the PV to the covers to the songs , it was top notch to me

But yeah so far , I'm not feeling the SUMMER NUDE '13 PV but maybe the full PV will change my mind on things ?

1. 4 ~compass~ - Amazing opening! Pretty haunting somehow, and builds up the excitement. Transitions to WORLD QUEST really well.
3. 4+FAN - Loved it when I first heard the LQ radio rip. It sounds even better in HQ. Loving the signature NEWS sound that was produced, but at the same time, it still sounds fresh.
4. Nagisa no Onee Sumer - Loved it when I first heard the super LQ 15-second CM rip. Now it's even better in full. It's a feel good song and I'm smiling throughout listening to it.
6. Koi Matsuri - Super fun! So hyped up when I listen to it.
7. Greedier - Great song to somewhat relax from the upbeat stuff from the past 6 tracks. NEWS does R&B really well imo. They should do more of those.
8. Besame Mucho ~Kuruoshii Bolero~ - Slightly mature and mysterious sound from them. Sounds like a more intense Labyrinth to me. Sounds great!
10. Dance in the dark - Omg this sounds EPIC. Pretty experimental mix of genres. I love it so much!!
11. HIGH GROUND - It's so uplifting and cheerful. I feel like this is the kind of song I would listen to when I'm in need of a serious pick-me-up. Another great track!
13. CRY - This track is alright. I might grow on me. But I don't care for it as much as the others.

1. Beautiful Rain - The R&B-pop track by Koyama is pretty lighthearted. But I don't really think much of it now.
2. Dreamcatcher - Pretty loungy. Again, don't really care for this song for now either.
3. Remedy - Another electro-dance track like PeekaBoo... It's not bad. I kinda like it.
4. Lovin' U - Probably the best one out of the 4. I'm pretty surprised by Tegoshi's diversity in the genres of music that he can do. I was expecting another ballad judging from the title. But it's not, and it sounds really good.

After listening to the album in full, Pokopon Pekorya has grown on me tremendously. I actually really like it now LOL. Overall, the album is REALLY solid and well produced. Reminds you why NEWS was great last time, but at the same time introducing newer sounds for a fresher personality of the group. I don't care for the solo tracks nor the RE bonus track much but the tour might change my mind about them. That's what happened with the Chankapana solo tracks. But for now, I'm glad I'm not missing out by ordering LE A. :laugh It's a great comeback studio album and I'm already excited for more NEWS music. They're coming back stronger than ever and I'm loving the 4-member NEWS a lot.

KarenPang 16th July 2013 08:06 AM

The new album is awesome! It's definitely very well put together & already when Yamapi + Ryo left I was concerned how things might be for the last 4

But after the release of the 2 singles & now this, they've given assurance that yes they still can continue on as a 4 piece group!

Hopefully this will not be their last release as a quartet & it's a beginning of a new chapter for them for sure

So can't wait to get my copy of NEWS next month!

Probably won't outsell LIVE, be it the first week or overall. But it seems like a steady decline i.e. they haven't left at all. I guess that's a good thing? That's a pretty huge drop between day 2 and day 3 though. Yikes.

That said, I prefer NEWS over LIVE.

KarenPang 19th July 2013 02:46 PM

To me with the release of NEWS , they've proven to you & I that they do indeed can carry on as a 4 member group . It feels like a rebirth for them of sorts , considering what happened

That said , I hope this will mean there will be many more releases from NEWS in the near future

NEWS tops Oricon weekly ranking with their 5th album

Quote:

Popular group NEWS' 5th original album "NEWS" (released on July 17th) sold 100,000 copies in the first week and topped Oricon's weekly album ranking.

This is the group's 6 consecutive chart topping album since their 1st album "touch" (released in April 2005).

There have only been 3 artists who have 6 consecutive chart topping albums since the 1st one, including KinKi Kids, Utada Hikaru, and KAT-TUN. Therefore, NEWS is the 4th artist to accomplish it.

Yamapi gets a license for Jet Skiing and enjoys a BBQ party with “SUMMER NUDE” cast

Quote:

On June 24th, Yamashita Tomohisa (28) attended the press conference for his starring drama "SUMMER NUDE" (FujiTV/Mondays 9PM) in Tokyo. They had the summer sea as stage and were enjoying a Barbecue Party by its side, the reporters were also invited to join.

In order to explain his dedication towards this love story Yamashita revealed with a smile, "I took a personal watercraft licence (jet ski)", he said he needed this to fulfil the dream of a summer love, "If we take a ride in a watercraft, we would definitely fall in love together. It's also nice to have fun together", he said with embarrassment. Later on, the staff revealed this license was necessary for one special scene in the drama.

In addition, Yamashita expressed his love towards the sea, "I am proud to say I feel the happiest during summer. It has this image where you can fall in love more than usual. If we enjoy the sea together, we'd definitely fall in love".

This summer sea story follows photographer Mirukiya Asahi (Yamashita) who is not able to forget his former lover after she suddenly left him 3 years ago, he will have a fateful encounter with chef Chiyohara Natsuki (Karina) after he captures the moment when she is left in the altar by her fiancé, while his high school classmate Taniyama Hanae (Toda Erika) has been in love with him for nearly 10 years.

Yamashita talked about being able to record since beginning to end in his beloved sea, "I'm so lucky. I want to gradually become friends with the cast and have fun together. With that in mind, I would like to keep working hard", he enthusiastically added.

Karina (29), Toda Erika (24), Katsuji Ryo (26), Kubota Masataka (24), Sexy Zone Sato Shori (16), Yamamoto Mizuki (21), Chiba Yudai (24), Itaya Yuka (38) and Katsunori Takahashi (48) also attended this event. "SUMMER NUDE" will be broadcasted every Monday at 9PM on FujiTV.

NEWS announce their 10th year commemorative event at Tokyo Dome
On July 26, 4-member idol group NEWS kicked off their nationwide tour, 'NEWS LIVE TOUR2013', at Chichibunomiya Rugby Stadium in Tokyo. During this event, NEWS announced that they would be holding their 10th year commemorative event in September at Tokyo Dome.

While details on the event have yet to be confirmed, Koyama Keiichiro commented on their first Tokyo Dome after becoming a 4-member group. "I'm excited thinking about the scene that is waiting for the 4 of us." Meanwhile, Kato Shigeaki called out to fans, "It would make me happy if everyone could come."

SEE ALSO: NEWS tops Oricon weekly ranking with their 5th album

Reflecting on the past 10 years, Tegoshi Yuya said, "When I compare us to when we first debuted, Kei-chan (Koyama) became an adult." Koyama responded, "Tegoshi, you're just as bad. Your picture from 10 years ago!"

During the course of their career, there was a time when NEWS went on hiatus. Regarding their future, Koyama promised, "We're not going to end our activities as NEWS, so we will do our best to give you peace of mind."

On this day, NEWS performed a total of 33 songs, mainly focusing on tracks off of their latest album, "NEWS". They excited the crowd of 35,000 fans with a medley, including a marching band and fireworks during the encore. Masuda Takahisa expressed, "I didn't really like the outdoors, but it was so fun that it made me change my mind."

Mmmm, I wonder what would happen then. Pretty excited!

KarenPang 27th July 2013 05:26 PM

to me I would like it if they re-record some of their older songs & maybe re-arrange them ?

would be interesting to hear updated versions of their songs that're sung as a 4 piece group but I don't know if such a thing will ever happen as it's a rarity for Johnny's to do this

So apparently the 27 July show was cancelled halfway due to heavy rain and another show was held on the next day instead. They had to cancel it during an MC after 4+FAN and apparently there were a handful of fans sent to the hospital due to the heavy rains. 75 of them in fact. That's pretty bad.

Read a slightly more detailed report: http://naoyabu.livejournal.com/41939.html

Yikes.

KarenPang 29th July 2013 01:00 PM

oh wow & yes the local media did report that there was really unusual heavy rain that Japan had over the weekend

hope those 75 affected fans will have a speedy recovery soon ! at least for once it's not something man made related

Bigtop 29th July 2013 07:39 PM

Oh dear... That's not good... Outdoor concert + heavy rain (or even lightning) = trouble... (and I'm talking about ANY outdoor concert AROUND THE WORLD, not just here in Japan, and in NEWS' case)

Hopefully the victims recover pretty, pretty soon...

I can attest I've never seen so much rain... I was outside when that happened and oh my gosh I was soaked from head to toe.
It's too bad they had to cancel the show, that's the risk with outdoor shows
They handled the situation quite well though


gonna go pick up Yamapi's single later today yay~~

Which edition/s of SUMMER NUDE '13 you'll be buying Mylene?

Utena 30th July 2013 03:19 PM

I honestly had no idea which version to pick earlier today... Nocturne is so good it makes me wanna buy Type B just for the PV but at the same time I prefer music over extra DVDs...

jiarongisme 31st July 2013 06:01 AM

SUMMER NUDE '13 is pretty good in HQ. But the stand out for me has to be Tsuki no Maboroshi. Also, Nocturne sounds like a reject from SUPERBAD to me.

SUMMER NUDE '13 PV -short ver-:


I'm thinking they're going for the idol DVD feel? The ones where idols just frolick around random locations doing pretty much nothing. The male version of a gravure video pretty much lol.

KarenPang 31st July 2013 01:57 PM

SSTV will air the short PV version of Nocturne tomorrow morning

KarenPang 1st August 2013 02:58 AM

Frankly I really like SUMMER NUDE '13 overall as a single & as expected since Ai Texas, Yamapi's B sides have been exceptionally good

Downside of this single? The PVs are quite poorly produced if not executed :no I like Nocturne but the feeling I get from the pv is not as great as what I feel towards the song

I guess after being blown away how entertaining Ke Sera Sera's pv was I expected more this time round for SUMMER NUDE '13 but the short pv preview looks really tacky

Maybe I get the single sometime in the near future when YesAsia puts it up on offer but not now that's for sure

KarenPang 1st August 2013 01:23 PM

total 2 day sales - 49,761 + 18,051 = 67,812

I'm surprised this single might have problems crossing 100K in the 1st week given the promo tie in for the single

Pity as I think it's an enjoyable single , minus the rather horrible PVs

KarenPang 2nd August 2013 04:57 PM

SUMMER NUDE '13 3rd day sales - 8,489 at #2

total 3 day sales - 49,761 + 18,051 + 8,489 = 76,301

Wow looks like I'm right , it wouldn't cross 100K in the 1st week after all & it's sad given how much has went into the single but looks like the public's not responding that well to it ick

maybe cos it's a cover song ?

on the other hand , all 3 editions of NEWS's NEWS will be released next Fri aka on National Day x)

It was supposed to get released today in Taiwan though hmmm

jiarongisme 3rd August 2013 03:38 AM

No wonder 5music hasn't listed it yet. I have a feeling it's because they're having production complications and didn't have foresight. The boxes for the limited editions are different from the conventional first press boxes. It's pretty cool.

To think this single wasn't listed in the NINKI in the 1st place idk

Wow looks like the single barely scrap 100K in the 1st week which's really ... sad ?

not sure if it's just me but I probably had quite high expectations for SUMMER NUDE '13 to do well but in the end that's not the case :x

On the other hand , I'm going to preorder my copy of NEWS via 5music now <3
