Translation: Music Station 280815

[shikashitsuji.livejournal.com]

Hello! I translated Arashi's recent appearance on Music Station over here. Apart from their main talk time during the main programme, they also appeared on mini-sute with V6 (one of my favourite combinations ever) and also invaded V6's main talk time a little (at Inocchi's invitation XD).

Sho's father became vice minister

[cleotine]

As I haven't seen this at LJ, I thought I'd share...

Sakurai Shun, Sho's father, has apparently been appointed as vice minister of internal affairs and communications in July. Said ministry has regulatory authority over the TV and radio industry.

Beforehand he was in the ministry for policy coordination. After graduating the University of Tokyo he joined the political world in 1977 and spent many years in the information and communications field.

The above is a summary of this article.

PS: I came upon this by accident and was like "woah!, what kind of family does Sho come from exactly?" I knew his father was some important person and his mother a university lecturer but still...
Sho and his father really resemble each other though =)
