[news] Ai Kago suspended indefinitely from H!P for smoking
Original article here
Thanks Ikimasshoi for noticing it Note: In Japan, the legal smoking age is 20. Suspension may see ex-Morning Musume star's career go up in smoke Ex-Morning Musume member Ai Kago was suspended indefinitely late Thursday night after her talent agency confirmed a scandal sheet had caught her smoking while underage. Friday, a weekly photo journal that specializes in paparazzi shots of celebrities, caught 18-year-old Kago puffing away at a restaurant in Tokyo's trendy Ebisu district on Jan. 28, a spokesman for her talent agency said. Friday's coverage of the event will hit the stands on Feb. 10. Talent agency officials said that they are continuing to discuss Kago's career path with the teenager and her parents. Since leaving Morning Musume, Kago has joined "W," another all-girl group. Minors in Japan are banned from smoking. The legal age of adulthood is 20 and smoking before then is outlawed. In April last year, another Morning Musume celebrity, Mari Yaguchi, quit the popular group after a weekly photo magazine showed her on a date with an actor. (Mainichi) Consequences (from ikimasshoi) Ai Kago has been suspended indefinitely. She is not leaving H!P, but she is taking a break. Upcoming W (Double U) releases have been officially cancelled. Hello!Morning filmed shows will be edited, cutting out Aibon’s parts. Hello!Project has suspended upcoming W events, including their performance at the Tokamachi snow festival on 2/18 and the Pacific Heaven Hotel fanclub event. Up Front Works loses over 100 million yens already invested in W’s upcoming releases: production, events and promotion. The only way to get the money back would be saving W’s new single and album for an eventually comeback after Aibon’s punishment. Last edited by walking proud; 11th February 2006 at 07:18 PM. |

Oh my gosh. I heard about Aibon smoking but didn't think much of it. She's been with H!P for years, I wonder what will happen with W...

Not surprised about her smoking, a little surprised over her getting suspended.
Wasn't there some nonsense about backstage at some show Ayumi had scolded the MM girls who were also performing that night for smoking so young? I remember some of you coots making a big fuss about some nonsensical rumors that run-in spawned. |

Teen smoking is a big problem everywhere. Tsunku should take the stick out of his butt and let her stay.

Perhaps she's doing it to loose weight and become as thin as the second half of W.
