"Nikkan Sports, <Arashi participates Kohaku, break Johnny’s frame rule> Popular group Arashi breaks “Rule of 2 frames of Johnny’s agency” and participate Kohaku song festival for the first time. Arashi has grown up national group which meets the case as popularity and their skill. Johnny’s accept NHK passionate offer and give positive signal that they participate 60th Kohaku song festival along with senior groups Smap and Tokio. NHK announces Participant artists 23 December officially. Sanspo, participation of popular group Arashi is positive. Best album released August accomplished million hit. Singing and drama including individual performance are going so strong. If they participate for the first time, they unfailingly must revitalizie it.

So the rest of the performers won't be officially announced until Dec. 23rd. But I'm sure NHK wants to use Arashi as promotion, so they get announced officially much earlier.
