Yay for Perfume and congrats Kana Nishino.
Ikimonogakari? Kana Nishino? AKB48? Red team has it in the bag. Seriously, if they don't finally win this year I'll be like.....wtf -_-
Also, there was some fake news floating around a while earlier.
Good thing that got cleared up.
Quote:
NHK has just announced the performer lineup for this year's Kohaku Uta Gassen. A total of 44 artists have been invited, with an even split of 22 on the Red Team and 22 on the White Team. 5 of them will be making their first appearance on the show, including Kana Nishino and AAA.
Some early news reports proved to be wrong: artists such as BIG BANG, KARA, and Masahiko Kondo did not make the final list.
Artists are listed in Japanese alphabetical order. The performance has not yet been announced.
