Yeah its been a while. There have been glimpses of that, but nobody that has been able to make it last. I thought Otsuka Ai might have legitimately had a shot back in 04/05 but then she just became very stagnant in basically everything that she did.

The last really attention grabbing drama a NEWS member was in was in 2005. Code Blue did alright last year as well but didn't seem to have quite a lasting impact and NEWS wasn't involved with a theme song or anything like that. They also don't have a tv show like most Johnny's groups do.

I believe this gets published the same month every year. This is the May issue, so you can think May 2008-May 2009.
