I have to say, i think what Erika did was very immature and stupid, but i really have alot of respect for her too. She's outspoken. Something you just don't get with Japanese stars. i really like this interview with her. I think the interviewer said it perfectly She has "balls"

And once again, there is such a STRONG bridge between Erika in real life and her character in Helter Skelter. |
I don't follow Erika, so I don't know about her... but while reading the manga it was impossible not having Ayu in mind... The pressure to be pretty and young, people complaining she looks too fake and over-plastic now, the whole "she was cool but she isn't anymore" thing we are always reading, and all the fighting she went through to stay as herself, and not as a character created by her agency on the jpop market... Girl has balls...
Also, it fits perfectly the Party Queen era, as it also discuss this to some extent...
