H!P Summer 2014 KOREZO: Share it if you like it (Part VII - 29 Aug)

For the KOREZO! performances held during the current Hello! Con (Summer 2014), there's a corner where the girls can bring up photos they want to highlight. A  Facebook page has been set up, entitled 'Hello! Pro Ki ni Ittara Share'. (H!P Share it if you like it). 

Here's a selection of what piqued my interest. As the page says, if you like any of these photos, then 'Like' and 'Share' them on Facebook. Links are in the first line below the photo, the post titles. They're also announcing the number of 'likes' and 'shares' each photo has gotten at the concerts, so you can show your support by doing so.

If you missed them - Part I (12, 19 & 26 July)Part II (27 July)Part III (2 Aug)Part IV (3 Aug)Part V (9 & 16 Aug), Part VI (17 Aug)

I've never really been asked by the fans to show my swimsuit-clad figure、
But now、 for the very first time in public in this country, here's a daring shot of me in a swimsuit in my private time!
It's a shot from when I went to the pool with my family when I was 2~3 years old
I apologise if that dotted swimsuit went overboard on sexiness(lol)

Tsunku♂ gets a letter from his daughter


A letter from my 6-year old daughter when I got back from work.
'Dad! I wrote a letter, so read it!'
I see, but just as I was thinking about opening it, she went 'Hey dad, read it quickly, I wrote in it that I'd like to thank you for always doing your best at work, and thank you for being so kind, so read it quickly!' It's like I already read it even before I laid my eyes on it.

{Trans: Just as Tsunku♂ mentions, the contents of the letter are virtually what she said to him. Hope you enjoyed this adorable little episode.}

Photograph from ℃-ute Yajima Maimi
The 1st photo has already been uploaded on the Facebook page
It's Berryz Kobo's Kumai-chan with the Eiffel Tower。
Kumai-chan said 「The Eiffel Tower is a tough challenger」、
But 『Kumai-chan、 you've beat the Eiffel Tower』
This photograph that has come to light serves as evidence。
That is the 2nd photo。
As you can see、 she has the Eiffel Tower contained within the palms of her hands。


Photograph from Morning Musume。’14 Sayashi Riho
My treasure is this special bath poster、
That I got from when Morning Musume。’14's Fukumura Mizuki-chan appeared on the cover of a magazine。
You can grasp her marshmallow skin by looking at this photo!
Getting to touch the skin of the original、Fuku-chan herself
Is a special right accorded only to me。
I'm not going to hand it over to anyone (lol)

Hardboiled Night

With a series of 5 concerts at Akasaka Blitz - one every month, starting in July and ending in November - Tokyo Girls' Style are tying their performances together to make up 'Hardboiled Night'.

The performances are strung together with a film noir story. The story advances with videos, mixed in with the girls performances throughout the concert, covering one episode per performance. Also, at each performance, a new song will be unveiled.

A summary of the story from the first night was posted to their channel the day before the 2nd performance. Let's run through the story, shall we?

3 big incidents (TopYell+ 2014 H!P Great Dictionary)

In TopYell+ H!P edition (March 2014), there's a segment that's referred to as the Hello! Pro great dictionary - basically your run of the mill questionnaire.
Although it's set out by person, I'm arranging it by question instead. Links to the other questions I've translated in this series are at the end.

Q7. What are 3 big incidents that happened since you joined Hello! Pro?


Q7. What are 3 big incidents that happened since you joined Hello! Pro?

Michishige Sayumi
1. Getting my first solo regular radio show, 'Konya mo Usa-chan Peace' on CBC Radio
2. Not getting a single line in a musical that Morning Musume. was starring in
3. Becoming leader of Morning Musume. '14 

Fukumura Mizuki
1. Surprise entry
On the day of the announcement of the 9th gen members, I was nervous and excited, wondering who'd get in. But never in my wildest dreams did I think my name would get called on-stage! On that day, I was busy with photo shoots the whole day.

2. The first time getting songs of my own
The Hello! Pro Eggs sing our senpai's songs, so we didn't have a song of our own. I'll treasure the first time I received the songs 'Watashi no Tamago' as part of a Shugo Chara Egg unit, and my Morning Musume début song, 'Maji Desuka Suka'.

3. My shoes flying off!
This is a little funny (laughs). It was difficult to pick three things in my Hello! Pro life. But in the middle of a concert, my sneakers got loose and flew up high. I feel that anyone who saw it wouldn't have forgotten it.
