Entertainment reporters are already forecasting weddings and separations in the year 2010.

For veteran showbiz reporter Masaru Nashimoto, at the top of the list is actress Aoi Miyazaki, 24, married to Sousuke Takaoka, 27. The media has reported numerous scandals about the husband’s promiscuous activities, and many feel that the next incident will be the last.

Actress Maki Mizuno, 39, and politician Masazumi Gotoda, 40, are estranged – Mizuno now lives with her son at her parents’ home, while Gotoda resides at the public dormitory for Diet members. Officially, the separation is for purposes of the husband’s political activities, but rumors about his extramarital affairs were reported last summer.

The engagement of kabuki actor Ebizo Ichikawa, 32, to newscaster Mao Kobayashi, 27 is already being questioned, owing to Ichikawa’s habitual philandering.

Some reporters say that Jo Odagiri, 33, and Yu Kashii, 22, are already separated. According to entertainment reporter Tomoko Kawauchi, both actor and actress have been frequently seen or heard to be drinking separately on their own all night, which is beginning to sound a little too unnatural for a couple known to enjoy partying.

On the brighter side, there are happy relationships including Shun Oguri and Yu Yamada, Tomoya Nagase of TOKIO and Saki Aibu, Yoshimi Tokui of comedic duo Tutorial and Yui Natsukawa – some of the couples are expected to tie the knot this year.

Contrary to rumors stating otherwise, actress Erika Sawajiri, 23, and husband Takashiro, 45, seem to be hanging on, while some are saying that Akiko Yada, 31, ex-wife of the recently arrested Manabu Oshio, 31, may publish a collection of her nude photos.

Much will be happening in the entertainment industry this year.

It starts with some footage of the wacky people who have turned out to celebrate the new year: break dancing weirdos, a group wearing tiger masks, and a man “rapping” about the soba at his restaurant.

As midnight approaches, the pleasant mood changes to one of tension. Police prepare barricades and the big screen on a building overlooking Shibuya crossing is turned off early to discourage people from thinking there will be a countdown event. When clocks hit 0:00 and people begin celebrating, the wildness begins.

The a great “panic” fills the area around the station as it becomes too crowded for people to move. Police officers try to push people so they stay within the barriers. One cop is knocked over by the crowd. Broken glass bottles litter the street. There are also several people who have passed out from drinking too much. There was also some fighting.

It is noted that this event seems to be popular among foreigners. A few are more than happy to drink and dance in front of the news cameras. For some reason, one group of Japanese and foreigners was singing the “Ponyo” theme song. At least one foreigner joined a group of young Japanese who were climbing street poles.

This has been a long time coming.

Basically, I've mostly fallen out of the Kazuya Minekura fandom, I've moved on and I'm not so interested in keeping this community.

So, I am passing over full ownership rights to your other mod, [info]deathlike.  Have fun guys, and keep rocking!

I do a lot of music uploading for y'all. (I'm working on my new years thing right now I SWEAR.)
Now it's your turn.
You don't have to upload anything for me, just rec me.

I've had this insatiable urge to blast rap music loudly into my ears the past week or so.
I'm in one of those moods right now, but my rap library is extremely limited.

THINGS I LIKE IN MY RAP MUSIC:
shown through examples of good songs I like.

Basically the entire Pomegranate album is my favorite. :d

And my friend just introduced me to Atmosphere )

I only wish it were under happier circumstances. Park Ye Jin, Lee Chun Hee, and Park Shi Yeon will return to Family Outing for its finale, finale as in ending, last episode, it’s over, etc. The filming for the finale will be held on January 11th and 12th. It was previously reported that Yoo Jae Suk and Park Shi Yeon would be leaving the show and that the future of the show was in jeopardy because of that and numerous scandals regarding the ‘reality’ of the show. Just recently, it was announced that Yoo Jae Suk would NOT be leaving the show (yay!) but that the rest of the cast will (what? BOO!). After the finale episode, sometime in mid February, Family Outing will return with a season 2 with Jae Suk as the MC (although conflicting reports say Jae Suk’s return isn’t finalized yet) and a new cast, and new plot.

I had been hoping for Jae Suk to stay on the show, but I never thought they would keep him and get rid of everyone else! I’m not sure whether to be happy or sad. I couldn’t imagine Family Outing without Jae Suk, and had thought that the only thing that would make it okay would be for Ye Jin and Chun Hee to return. But now they’re changing everything!

Well, I guess things change and everyone must move on. I will miss seeing the whole family every week, they always brought laughter to my day. The one positive thing about all of this is that all of the family members have experienced much success and popularity from being on the show. It was because fans were able to see more of a ‘normal’ side to some of their favorite actors, singers, and MCs. Thanks to the family Yoon Jong Shin, Kim Soo Ro, Yoo Jae Suk, Kim Jong Kook, Lee Hyori, Lee Chun Hee, Park Shi Yeon, Park Ye Jin, Park Hae Jin, and Kang Daesung for all the wonderful memories.

Next week’s show will be part 2 of the Lee Sung Soo and Jo Han Seon episode. On January 17th and 24th, will be the episodes with Tiffany from SNSD and Nicole from KARA. As an added bonus members from SNSD and KARA as well as from the Brown Eyed Girls and T-Ara will be making a surprise appearance. I’m guessing that the finale will be airing on January 31st and February 7th. I can’t believe there are only 5 episodes left…

If it weren't for Family Outing I wouldn't have known about Chunhee, Haejin plus the various guests they had.

KARA Goo Hara speaks up about rumours of plastic surgery brought up after there were comparisons of her photos during middle school and currently.

Goo Hara was on SBS Strong Heart aired on 5th January when she said, “This is the truth that I’m going to reveal for the first time. There is no female idol singers who will reveal such a thing.” She continued, “To say the truth if you are a female celebrity, you want to be called as beautiful by others. That was what I felt when I was young and I just made myself a little prettier.”

With that, the others around during the show had asked if she has undergone plastic surgery, she said, “I will not say that I didn’t” laughing.

She added, “Even though this is something I reveal here, the double eyelids, I have them since I was young. But our boss said my eyes looked dull in photos and hence we fixed it once.”

“Our boss also said, ‘There is no need for the nose to be higher, we shall just go for one jab shot’” and Jang YeongRan asked, “Are you talking about fillers?” and Hara said, “Yes.”

Goo Hara also said, “I only did my teeth”.

Following that gagwoman Kim HyoJin said, “Isn’t your eyes, nose and mouth the whole of your face?” causing laugther during the show.

Lastly, Goo Hara said, “I feel good inside after saying this out.”

Watched it live on TVAnts (for Daesung and Yongbae ♥) and I loved that part. xD
She was really cute while saying it.
But this just makes it more evident than it already is on Korea's superficiality :/
