Parting ways as equals, or at least in peace and respecting the other party does not mean appearing on trashy talk shows to "spill the dirt" and explain how you've not been employed since breaking up with your employer--a risk that should have been self-evident, all else aside. When asked why he didn't continue with dance, Maro said he wanted to try theatre and singing. Then a clip explains how, with the $4,000 he had, he spent $2,500 on a guitar. When asked to play, he strums briefly--producing no melody. He cannot play guitar, something some of the panelists comment upon, though they praised his dancing.
His whole shebang with the media seems like a big pity party. It's immature, and unkind to Ayu and the other women--and child--involved. If he's trying to milk what attention he can garner from the brief breakup headline (which, aside from those of us who devour any news about Ayu, is not exactly breaking news) to try to bolster his upcoming attempt to break out in the music world...well, good luck. They say all press is good press, but I'm not so convinced. :-/ He just looked pathetic to me.
