TOKIO、3度目の24時間テレビ
人気グループ、TOKIOが、8月28~29日放送の日本テレビ系「24時間テレビ33 愛は地球を救う」 のメーンパーソナリティーを務めることが25日、分かった。メーンパーソナリティーは03年以来、7年ぶり 。同番組にパーソナリティーとして携わるのは最多の3回目。

 松岡昌宏(33)は「33回目の24時間テレビで33歳の自分が3回目のパーソナリティー。『3』づくし の夏にTOKIOらしい24時間テレビを作ります」。“3づくし”としてはメンバー全員が30 代でもある。

 今年のテーマは「ありがとう~今、あの人に伝えたい~」。総合司会は6年連続で徳光和夫(69)と同局の 西尾由佳理アナ(32)のコンビで、会場は“本拠地”の日本武道館に戻る。

SANSPO
Mabo (Matsuoka Masahiro) will be the leader. congrats to them.

oh very nice , I like the promo pic which was used of TOKIO



woah what happened to you Nagase ?!

Tokio's 3rd 24 Hour Television

"Popular group, TOKIO, was revealed on April 25th as the Main Personality for NTV's 33rd '24 Hour TV - Love Saves the Earth,' August 28-29. They were the main personality in 2003, seven years ago."

Mabo is quoted about being the main personality at 33 years old, during the 33rd 24 - and that everyone is in their 30s and this is their 3rd time to be the main personalities for 24hr. This year's theme is "Thank you ~I want to say it to that person right now~"* and it'll occur in the Budokan.

OOPS

I thought it's recent cos it was posted on aramatheydidnt , well guess not T-T

anyway ...

Kimura Takuya Suggests Handing Out Condoms to Promote New Drama

The Fuji TV drama Moon Lovers isn't airing till next month, but there has been endless promotions in place already. Last Friday on the radio show What's Up SMAP, Kimura Takuya received countless questions from listeners wanting to know more on the storyline and how things were progressing on set. However, Kimura cleverly answered around the questions without giving anything away.

One listener asked if there will be any promotional items that will be released with the drama? At first Kimura was serious about answering the question, saying he hasn't heard anything regarding this issue. However, later he said that there was a secret plan to hand out condoms during the campaign. He then went on to say how love encompasses intimate moments, so condoms are a necessity for couples. He later stressed that it was his own personal opinion, but he will present his suggestion to Fuji TV and personally look into the details.

Another idea that Kimura had was to organize a beauty contest. As 'Getsu' sounds similar to 'Ketsu' (butt), Kimura wanted to hold a contest through the television station, and went as far as coining the name 'Ketsu no Koi'. Then he laughed and said that he will enter the contest too, since all the contestants' faces will be hidden. Seems like he went all out trying to sell the idea.

During the radio show there were many questions from listeners asking about Lin Chi-Ling. Even Kimura admitted how surprised he was by their interest in his co-star. He was asked how they communicated with each other, and if she introduced him to good food during their filming in Shanghai. Kimura said that Lin Chi-Ling speaks to them in English, especially when she talks to Matsuda Shota, who studied in London. However, her Japanese has improved quite a bit. He expressed that when all the cast members are speaking in English, it gives him a feeling of living overseas.

what I didn't know Shota Matsuda studied in London O_O'''

SMAP to play Shanghai World Expo



Huge Japanese pop group SMAP will perform in the Expo Cultural and Performing Arts Center on June 13, the Bureau of Shanghai World Expo Coordination said today.

Free tickets can be reserved free at the center, which can hold 18,000 people, on the day for the 1pm concert. The production will include a medley of hit songs and interaction with fans.

This will be the first time the group, which has gained popularity around Asia during the past two decades, performs outside Japan.

The current members of SMAP, which stands for Sports Music Assemble People, are Masahiro Nakai, Takuya Kimura, Goro Inagaki, Tsuyoshi Kusanagi and Shingo Katori.

SMAP, considered a Japanese "idol" band because of the huge profile of its members, released its first CD "Can't Stop LOVING" in 1991 and has since released more than 40 singles and 20 albums. They are also involved in TV series, movies, entertainment programs and musicals.

In addition to SMAP members starring in dramas and movies, their music is widely known, and they boast great popularity in China as Japan's top group.

"We are honored to obtain the opportunity to participate in the grand Expo," said SMAP members. "We believe that June 13 will be a memorable day for us as well as Chinese fans."

Johnny's net has put up a listing for a new single from Tokio. It's a single A-side this time but will have three different versions like their more recent singles.

The two LE's have the title track, Haruka, with it's karaoke version for song tracks and each will come with a DVD with different versions of the PV. The RE will have two B-sides, one composed completely by Nagase Tomoya, as well as the karaoke track for Haruka and the other B-side Everlasting.

This will also be released on June 16th.

The 1 group/duo that I want them to return back to release stuff together is Tackey & Tsubasa

I can't believe it has been like what close to 2 years or so since Koi Uta / PROGRESS was released

I hope they're not forgotten cos I know I'm still waiting for them to return back together to release something eventually

a new V6 song , titled only dreaming

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yAFM9...layer_embedded

only dreaming is currently used in Inohara's TV drama, "Shin Keishicho Sosa Ikka 9 Gakari" in its new season & Miyake played it on his Miyake Ken no Radio show

The previous seasons of the drama also featured their precious songs such as Good day!! (2006), Jasmine (2007), Chou (2008), and GUILTY (2009).

I managed to rip only dreaming from YouTube -> http://www.mediafire.com/?rkxi5thu5mk

I like it , it's very nice . I hope it wll get a physical single release soon as their staff said they're working on it

Also they have another new one called Catch

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2WVWo...layer_embedded

it's just a snippet & not a full song . It's used in Waseda Academy's CM last month & the theme centres on basketball
