[ARASHI] The Re(mark)able 15th Thread !

[ka♡ri.]

Hi Arashi !
They are this year's ORICON KINGS
They are one of Johnny's Entertainment's most successful groups !
They debuted aboard a cruise ship in Hawai'i in 1999 !
They are the most popular JE group outside of Japan !
They are the most talented TV personalities, actors and musicians in JE (imho ok. ) !
♥

大野智
♥ Ohno became Arashi's leader because of a Rock-Paper-Scissors game! He didn't even want to be the leader!


松本潤
♥ Jun is an elite in Johnny's - meaning that he is one of the few who didn't have to audition to make it into JE!


二宮和也
♥ Nino is currently obsessed with magic tricks which is why he's always performing them on TV! It's almost eclipsed his love for his DS!


櫻井翔
♥ Sho may seem to be the most manly in the group - but he's the biggest scaredy cat!


相葉雅紀
♥ Aiba enjoys animals which lead him to work on Tensai! Shimura Dobutsuen where he often gets to work (hilariously) with wild animals!

It's funny that Aiba's not the youngest in the group but MatsuJun's because Aiba's always behaving like he's the youngest in the group

having said that there's no way you can hate Aiba at all as he has the biggest heart in the group

[ka♡ri.]

Ya - his birthday is in 2 days! The same days as my brother's birthday!

And more info about Aiba's butai has come out:

Miyata-san also directed "Tsubame no Iru Eki" and "Untamed Heart", where Aiba-chan starred in. ^_^

Mikijiro Hira, Aiko Ito, and Jundai Yamada will play supporting roles.

平にお願い！嵐・相葉雅紀が人生お悩み相談 ~ Sanspo

人気グループ、嵐の相葉雅紀（２５）主演の舞台「グリーンフィンガーズ」（宮田慶子演出）の製作発表が２２ 日、都内ホテルで行われた。

　刑務所暮らしの囚人たちが庭師を目指し奮闘する物語で、英映画の初舞台化。殺人罪で服役中のコリンを演じ る相葉は、平幹二朗（７５）扮する老人ファーガスとのふれあいを通じ、人や物への愛を取り戻し ていく。

　「全力でぶつかれば、平さんは受け止めてくれるんじゃないかと思う。芝居、人生についていっぱい教えても らいたい」と相葉。平は「年齢を超えて、お互いにものを作る喜びを分かちあっていきたい」と応 じた。

　ほかに、いとうあいこ、山田純大、住田隆、なすびが共演。公演は東京・青山劇場で来年２月２３～３月１０ 日。



「嵐」相葉　祖母泣かせ「今でも心痛い」 ~ Sponichi

Aiba-chan made her grandmother cry when he was in kindergarten. He destroyed the flowers that her grandmother grew in the garden. For first time, he saw her grandma's tears. He still feels hurt about this painful memory.

　「嵐」の相葉雅紀（２５）が人生をあきらめた囚人を演じる舞台「グリーンフィンガーズ」の製作発表が２２ 日、都内で行われた。００年に製作された同名の英映画を世界で初めて舞台化。囚人たちがガーデニングを通し 人生を見つめ直すハートウオーミングコメディー。相葉は、幼稚園のころ祖母が庭で育てた花を棒でなぎ倒した というエピソードを披露。「あのとき、おばあちゃんの涙を初めて見ました。今でも心が痛い。お正月に会えそ うなので、この話をしてみようかな」と語った。年老いた囚人役でベテランの平幹二朗（７５）が出演。平は「 テレビ番組を拝見しましたが、元気で明るい若者」と、相葉との初共演を楽しみにしていた。東京公演は来年２ 月２３日から青山劇場で。

[KarenPang]

^ sounds promising , thanks Kaori .

In ARASHI , their birthdays are quite easy to remember .

Aiba - Christmas Eve
Nino - same birthday as my younger sister & yes I'm quite jealous of that

[ll moments ll]

^ what a coincidence, my younger sister's bday is on Neener's bday also!

LOL, i love the new graphics!

[ka♡ri.]

O: I share no birthdays with JE boys!
I'm so upset!

And thanks Irene! They're not as good as yours! I did them in like - 30 min. lol

lol don't worry Kaori , even I myself don't share any birthdays with any JE boys too

I don't think anyone's born on 10th Jan ?

[ka♡ri.]

I can't wait for the CDL! Arashi MCing last year was really nice! They were so funny - lol! But they wore their Time con outfits - which means we'll probably see DAL con outfits. DDDD: I hope they use AAA 2 outfits instead.

[Beauty4123]

aww, aiba made his grandma cry? he was young, so it's not his fault, haha.

his stage play sounds very cool and fun!

[Beauty4123]

"green fingers" press conference with aiba

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CzmllRa1Whk

he looks hot

[ka♡ri.]

^He does look really hot!
I love his hair like that! But I still miss his blond hair! He's always hottest with blond!

And also - Lisa, I think that the thing about Aiba making his grandma cry is the play's plot? I think so..

[Beauty4123]

oh it is? my bad then, lol. i thought aiba really did make his grandma cry

[ka♡ri.]

I'm not really sure. But it does sort of sound like a plot. And if not - that's truly a random story to publish. O:

[Beauty4123]

haha yeah, very random indeed. if they really did mean to publish that, then that's like nothing compared to ohno's scandal in the summer, lol.

[ka♡ri.]

D:
I'm glad that scandal wasn't that huge.
