Avex forms new girl group: SUPER GIRLS

Avex Entertainment recently wrapped up its 2010 Idol Audition. What started with over 7,000 hopeful applicants was narrowed down to just twenty-four girls. That number was split in half, as twelve of these girls were selected to be in a new girl group: SUPER GIRLS.
The names and ages of the twelve members are as follows:

* Saori Yasaka (21)
* Kaede Kano (17)
* Eri Akita (17)
* Rina Miyazaki (16)
* Mirei Tanaka (13)
* Ruka Mizote (13)
* Hikaru Watanabe (16)
* Aya Goto (13)
* Reira Arai (15)
* Ami Maeshima (12)
* Rika Shimura (17)
* Rino Katsuta (15)

At a recent PR event, the girls expressed their hopes of surpassing popular idol groups such as AKB48. Those are some big shoes to fill, girls. We’ll see what they’ve got to offer later this summer. The group is set to debut on August 7th.

So… Anybody else think that 12 is an outrageous age to be debuting in an idol group? I cannot even begin to imagine the number of pedophiles that are going to be attracted to this group. Oh dear…

Wow...I just...all these groups. @_@ There are some pretty young members in this group...12 and 13? Too young you think? I dunno, I have mixed feelings.
