The first article is answering the question of why Arashi doesn't perform at Kohaku (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kōhaku_Uta_Gassen) even though their popularity is so high...basically it answers that Johnnys only chooses SMAP and Tokio to perform at Kohaku while the others have to perform during Johnny's Countdown, both of which are in the same time slot.

The second was a question asking who the "elites" of Johnnys were, and if it was the members who had higher education. The article states that if it were, it would be Sakurai Sho of Arashi, Yuya Tegoshi and Yamashita Tomohisa of News, etc. but that elite Johnnys are the ones that didn't go through auditions like Nakai Masahiro and Matsumoto Jun.

The last one is asking who wear the see-through plastic costume first: Arashi or JYP (). The first paragraph is just explaining that Arashi wore the costume in 1999 for their debut perf on Music Station, and that it was designed by Mary, Johnny Kitagawa's sister and Johnny's Entertainment president. She would give the younger groups hand-me-down clothes from the sempai groups like SMAP and V6, etc. It also explains that Mary's daughter, who was a JE talent, is now designing and president under the label which News releases their albums from.
Finally, it answers the question by saying that JYP wore it first, when he donned the costume in 1994 for a performance.
