Hello Celebritys

I'd seen clips floating around of Captain and MaiMai from this, but now... finally, the whole segment!! Enjoy!


Tanaka Reina - Aishite Aishite ato Ippun (Morning Musume)
Shimizu Saki - MADAYADE (Berryz Koubou)


Niigaki Risa - Sukiyaki (Morning Musume)
Hagiwara Mai - Bishoujo Shinri (ºC-ute)


Tokunaga Chinami - Koi wo Hipparidako (Berryz Koubou)


---
Yeah, Reina totally kicked all their butts. Maybe Niigaki could have picked a better song. And what was Chinami wearing? So unflattering...


B.A

Some pictures from Berryz Koubou's new single 'Ryuusei Boy' appeared on Bijou Houdan last night, where Captain and Chinami were guests.





(This picture of Captain is WIN! XD)

Looks like caps from the dance-shot of the PV. They're in those ManoEri-esque dresses that we've seen before and dancing on an illuminated surface in space, it looks like? LOL!
I hope there's a story to the PV because they always seem to work better than just random dance-shots... in space...


Captain and Chinami on the show!





EDIT: Videos Embedded!








B.A

YAY! MORE BERRYZ STUFF!!
I don't even remember when they had this event, but it's new!!


I'll post the videos here, but for the most part I just skipped to the singing! LOL! Because I don't understand what they talk about OTL I'll need B.B to translate for me later! XD

Shimizu Saki (清水佐紀)

Captain sang 'Himitsu no U.TA.HI.ME' (Berryz Koubou). I think Captain is, out of Berryz, probably the most comfortable singing in falsetto. Her high-notes were really good!


Tsugunaga Momoko (嗣永桃子)

Momoko cheated and did a mini-live so she could sing 3 songs!
She sang 'Sakura Chirari' (ºC-ute), 'Hare Ame Nochi Suki' (Morning Musume Sakura Gumi) & 'Rottara Rottara' (Buono!)
Mmm... Momoko is still kind of pitchy at these solo events and her high notes in Hare Ami Nochi Suki kind of scared me, but she made up for it in Rottara Rottara! She sang that really well! :)
And she has really cool shoes! DO WANT!


Tokunaga Chinami (徳永千奈美)

She sang 'CLAP' (Berryz Koubou) and they faded it out.
I really liked her sneakers... That is all.


Sudou Maasa (須藤茉麻)

OH.MY.GOD. MAASA ON GUITAR!!
SHE WAS SO SCARED BUT SO AWESOME!! AND LOOKED SO COOOL!!
She played 'Munasawagi Scarlet' (Berryz Koubou) on Guitar!! :D
Maasa wins!! TOTALLY!!


Natsuyaki Miyabi (夏焼雅)

Miya sang her theme song 'Shoushitsuten - Vanishing Point' (Buono!). Not her best performance, but her voice is still probably my favourite in Berryz.
Miya had really cool shoes. Her and Momoko, it must be Buono!'s influence! ;)


Kumai Yurina (熊井友理奈)

Kumai sang her Berryz theme song 'Anshinkan' (Berryz Koubou). Mmm, I don't know... her voice is yet to win me over and she was pitchy at the start. I think she did better at the fan club event in Hawaii


Sugaya Risako (菅谷梨沙子)

Risako started off really well, REALLY well. She surprised me, because she didn't sound deep at all! She had some trouble with her high notes, but I think she's really improving!
Oh, Risako sang 'Natsu Remember you' (Berryz Koubou)

Sorry for the lack of updates recently...
I know there's been news, but nothing really that big or interesting for me. So I'll just do a quick rundown now of what's been happening lately.

Berryz Koubou


The release date for Berryz Koubou's 21st single Ryuusei Boy/Watashi no Mirai no Danna-Sama has been moved from 28 October to 11 November. This is likely due to Morning Musume releasing their next single on 28 October.
The release date for the Single V has also been moved to 18 November.
Poor Berryz :(


Chinami's 1st photobook 'Chinami' was released yesterday.
Although I don't like her, I guess she still deserves some pic-spam (although limited). And maybe I'll link a download... later.

From what I've seen there's some nice pictures in there, but not as nice as Momoko or Kumai's photobooks IMO.

ºC-ute


ºC-ute's 10th single EVERYDAY Zekkouchou! will be released in 4 days on 16 September followed by the Single V which is to be released on 30 September.

A radio rip of the c/w track Amai Wana has surfaced on the net.


Tracklist:
1. EVERYDAY 絶好調！！ (EVERYDAY Zekkouchou!!)
2. 甘い罠 (Amai Wana)
3. EVERYDAY 絶好調！！ Instrumental (EVERYDAY Zekkouchou!! Instrumental)


Hagiwara Mai's solo DVD Hagiwara Mai in Hachijo-jima will be released on 21 October following the release of her 1st photobook 'Hagiwara Mai' on 10 October

Buono!
They've scored a new advertisement deal! YEAH!
It's for food again XD but this time it's for Pink dot. Waffles!!


I'm so happy for them!
GO! GO! BUONO!!

OTHER
S/mileage
S/mileage have released the cover of their 2nd indies single Asu wa DEETO na no ni Ima Sugu Koa ga Kikitai. There's no release date yet.


Two new clips of them have also been released, including one of a dance practice and a short preview of their PV making-of.




I can't wait until they have their full debut! :D
Looking forward to it!~


While on the other hand...
Frances & Aiko
The tiny Taiwanese duo of two girls aged 6 and 8. This group is too pedo for me, they totally creep me out! ><
But they've released an MV for their debut single 我是大小姐 (Wo shi da xiao jie)
They've also announced an album, and the track list has been released too, but I'm not going to post it here. Just know that it'll be released on 15 September.


OMG SO PEDO RIGHT NOW!


B.A

Woah, this news came out of nowhere!
Berryz Koubou's Tokunaga Chinami announced her 1st photobook today.
Titled 'Chinami,' this photobook will also include a 'making-of' DVD

The cover has also been released:


'Chinami' will be released on 11 September

Meh, Chinami is my least favourite Berryz.
Wake me up when Captain gets a photobook...
