♥ One Love ! The Third Official Erika Sawajiri Thread ♥

[Beauty4123]

ERIKA severed ties with Stardust long before news of this scandal. It seems Stardust is using this drug rumor to justify her canceled contract.

The message added to her official site at the end of August, "See you at the next stage" was her good bye to Stardust and a message to fans that she is not retiring from the entertainment world. The message is still up at her official site... http://erika-web.com/

Erika’s homepage discloses she had hastily severed her connection with Stardust long ago

According to Japanese media, due to violation of company rules, actress SAWAJIRI Erika is to be officially given the sack by Stardust Promotion. Obviously, SAWAJIRI Erika had early become aware of Stardust being going to lay her off long before she knew this information. It seems that she had had a quick breakup with her agency already. She voiced ahead of time an announcement in English, very much convinced that she would not disappear here and now.

This line of words was published in the SAWAJIRI’s official website established in her artist name "ERIKA", presented in a black background with white characters that read "See you at the next stage", which means a transient bye-for-now and that she will be seeing you again soon till the next stage. She apparently is of the opinion that she yet is unwilling to bid a permanent farewell to the entertainment circle. Moreover, this article was delivered on August 30, prior to the news of dismissal.

On the one hand, Erika’s wayward conduct has constantly been criticized of by many; on the other hand, she has for sure acquired as an actress a considerably high esteem. In 2005, starring in the film "Pachigi" won SAWAJIRI a lot of "Movie Rookie of the Year" awards in recognition of her debut effort. In Addition, "1 Litre of Tears", a Japanese TV drama series of her work, also enjoys strong popularity at home and abroad. She reposes great confidence in her ability, she hence wouldn't mind her possibly being discharged by Stardust at all. The fact is that, there will be still agreements that contracts a film or TV play to her, and other firms asking her to join in, even if she leaves office now.
