omg no! I feel terrible for Ai and her daughter. It's hard enough going through something like that as a normal person, let alone as someone in the spotlight. I hope she's getting the support she needs from her friends & family.

I saw a video on facebook where a man was going around asking Japanese about how they felt about cheating and surprisingly many of them felt it was ok; like it was just a fact of life and they accept it. It disgusted me but others were defending it as a part of their culture...

That is really, really terrible Not that there's ever a good time to be involved in a scandal, but it's even more sad this is happening right when she's about to release LOVE HONEY. I hope she is doing alright...

I feel sad about how Ai-chin is feeling after hearing report about her husband cheating. This isn't moral. Ugh. Any news reports regarding this cheating scandal? And was her husband from RIP SLYME (a J-pop group) or something?

Oh no! I really hope Ai is alright...
Seems the scandal is everywhere now.

I haven't seen any translated articles yet but from what I've gathered, SU is part of a radio program where he regularly acts as the DJ. During Thursday/Friday's program, he mentioned that he called in a guest who was a "friend". The girl in question is Shiori Enatsu.

After the program ended, the two had dinner together and I think they spent the night together as well. The next morning, they spent a few hours in the car and driving around together before splitting up around noon. There's pictures of the two of them both the night of and the morning after.

Spoiler:



Scandal aside, here's another promo pic!
Spoiler:


And thanks oaristo & Andrenekoi for the LOVE TRiCKY tour videos! It's actually been a long while since I've watched one of her tours but it's amazing to see how grown she's become. I was living for that kind of sassy cockiness she had during I'm lonely and the playful flirtyness during affair. The whole tour was amazing. LOVE TRiCKY really is such an outstanding album. Obsessed all over again

Cheating is "accepted" as much as it was "accepted" in America in the 50s and 60s. (And before, really)

It's a very patriarchal society--women don't have as much support and, as many become housewives after marriage, divorce can be extremely difficult with no job to support themselves and little legal help or access to financial aid. It's "accepted" because otherwise they'd be on their own, poor, and their children would most likely go with the father as he would be able to support them.

Then they'd be branded as a divorced woman and basically become damaged goods.

^yeah that's basically what my female japanese friends said, when the topic once came up. They said they would "accept" it and pretend it didn't happen because what other option would they have?
Btw, cheating is only "accepted" when men do it. The other way around no one would say that.

^I was thinking the same, if Ai was the one cheating her career would be over.

Hearing Ai that "her career is over" would be the LAST thing in our minds...

Thankfully it wasn't Ai but SU that was cheating, but overall it's still disgusting to hear nonetheless.

^ Thank you for posting! I didn't have a chance to listen to the previews before. HEART BREAK and QueeN sound amazing! Not a huge fan of HEY! BEAR so far, but let's see once the full version is out.
I'm so excited for this album! It sounds very diverse, yet cohesive at the same time.
