Nishikido Ryo, Akanishi Jin, Yamada Takayuki and Oguri Shun have an online drinking party

A video of Nishikido Ryo, Akanishi Jin, Yamada Takayuki, and Oguri Shun having an online drinking party has been uploaded onto N/A's official YouTube channel.

In the beginning, Nishikido appears alone wearing a baseball cap. Then Akanishi appears on screen from his home in the U.S. saying, "I was taking a shower." Followed by Yamada who makes his appearance with an electronic cigarette, and finally Oguri Shun with a plain white t-shirt and beard.

While it wasn't Nishikido and Oguri's first time meeting, they weren't acquainted with one another. "We've never really talked before," Nishikido said nervously. In order for Nishikido to enjoy a conversation with Oguri, Akanishi and Yamada leave the screen for a bit.

When they return, the four talk about random things, but also touch upon how they spend their time at home during the coronavirus pandemic as well as the current situation around the world.

After their talk gets a little serious, Yamada starts pulling down his pants to lighten the mood. Nishikido suggests that they all do the same, and they do. The four spend the rest of the time being silly and joking around.

Johnnys to produce charity song with special unit composed of 76 artists

In continuation of the charity activities of its “Smile Up! Project”, Johnnys Jimusho announced that they will be releasing a charity song “smile”. A limited time unit “Twenty★Twenty” will be formed consisting of 76 people from 15 groups. Mr. Children’s Sakurai Kazutoshi, who himself is active in a lot of charity works, is in charge of writing and composing the song. Details of the music release will be announced later on.

Sakurai, who wrote and composed the song “smile”, said “I am very honoured to be able to participate in this project in the form of providing music. I could write the lyrics because it was based on the assumption that Johnny’s would sing this song.

One of the lines of the song goes “But don’t forget [I can see your smile] That’s the only thing I need to live.” Sakurai added “I think there’s no one better than Johnnys singing this phrase.”

This is not the first time Johnnys has released a charity song. In December 1997 “J-FRIENDS” was formed in support of the Great Hanshin- Awaji earthquake which occurred in January 1995. The unit was active until 2003 and the proceeds were donated to disaster relief activities.

President Johnny Kitagawa, who died last year, has envisioned a grand project to form a limited-time unit Twenty★Twenty for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. With Kitagawa’s passing and the Olympics postponed, producer Takizawa Hideaki is fulfilling his dream with a different purpose and with debuted artists included for the project.

Kimura Takuya reveals photo of him hanging out with Kamenashi Kazuya & Yamashita Tomohisa

On May 12, Kimura Takuya updated his official Instagram account with a photo of himself, Kamenashi Kazuya, and Yamashita Tomohisa hanging out at his house.

Kimura wrote, "Last New Year's, Kazuya and Tomohisa stopped by to say their greetings. It came up during my radio recording today, so I looked for it, and here it is!"

During last month's broadcast of 'Stay at Home Johnny's Weekend Kame to YamaP no All Night Nippon Premium,' Kamenashi and Yamashita shared a story about visiting Kimura's home one New Year's Day. They mentioned that they had taken a picture, but commented, "It would be suspicious for us to share it, so we will leave it up to senpai [Kimura]."
