JAPANESE POP STAR SHAVES HAIR AND CRIES AS AN APOLOGY FOR HAVING SEX

Image and video hosting by TinyPic
On the latest issue of “Shukan Bunshun” (BUNGEISHUNJU Ltd.) that was published on January 31st (JST), it was reported that AKB48’s Minegishi Minami spent the night at Shirahama Alan’s place on the 17th of this month.

Shirahama is a popular member of GENERATIONS that made a major debut last year as EXILE’s “little brother” group. He has appeared on some dramas like “GTO” and “Rokudenashi BLUES” last year, and he also starred in late-night drama “Sugarless.”

Minegishi and Shirahama co-starred together in a reading drama “Moshimo Kimi ga.” back in 2011.


I’m Minegishi Minami from Umeda team B of AKB48.

I’m very sorry to have caused enormous worry to members, fans, staffs, my families and a lot of other people with the article in the weekly magaizne that is published today.

(Deep Bow)

As the 1st generation member of AKB48, the group that has formed in 2005, it’s my responsibility to always behave as a good role model to juniors. I deeply regret what I did this time. It was a thoughtless deed and I was completely lacking self-awareness as a senior member.

My brain blanked out and I’m still unable to figure out what to do, what I can do. But after I saw the magazine a little ago, I couldn’t help but doing something. And I decided to shave my head without consulting any member or staff at my agency.

Although I don’t think I would be forgiven by doing this, the first thing that I went through my head was that “I don’t want to leave AKB48.”

This is a place where my dear members, who I spent my blossom of youth together, are. And it’s unimaginable to even think about leaving the group where I’m with so many wonderful and sweet fans.

I understand it’s wishful thinking, but if it’s possible, I would like to still be AKB48′s Minegishi Minami.

This is all my fault.

I’m truly sorry.

I will leave my hereafter to the hands of Akimoto-sensei and management.

Though I haven’t been able to tidy my mind up, but I just wanted to tell my current feeling to you.

Thank you so much for listening to me.

Ugh Yesterday a guy I like (liked wtv) said that "machismo only exists in feminist heads like yours"
YES, APPARENTLY MACHISMO DOESN'T EXIST, BUT FEMINISM DOES.

Oh, and when I said I was sick and tired of society still treating me and women in general in a condescending way just because of our sex he asked me what happened to me that was so "unforgivable". BECAUSE RAPE AND CONSTANT HARASSMENT IS FORGIVABLE. FUCK YOU YOU IDIOT

Oh god. I know a guy like that. He once said (and this is sadly an exact quote) "Stop with your feminism crap. You're acting like black people, always playing the victim."

I was just like OH HELL NO
sky3205 31st-Jan-2013 10:37 pm (UTC)
YES. And what kills me is that he was the sweetest guy. Now he's a dick. Thank god I didn't go spend the weekend with him -.-

And he played the "But that happens to men too" card. Being called stupid words by his friends is what, to him, constitutes as being treated the same as women.
Oh, also when I said I hated it because I'm a woman he said to stop with the bullshit -.-
They don't have any fucking idea of what is being a woman. No idea.

Oh god yes. This guy also used the 'well men have to deal with shit too!' thing. LOL we had one argument over how horrible society is on woman's weight/body/etc and he was just like WELL IT'S THE SAME WITH GUYS OKAY! WE'RE EXPECTED TO BE ALL MUSCLE. I was just like bitch please

I would NEVER want to have to deal with what women do. You can never win for losing and that's just amongst other women, let alone with men and society as a whole.

Have some kid fury, he says it FAR BETTER than I ever could -

LMAO. I love his videos. After this I clicked on the "What Does Kim Kardashyknees Do?" video and he just said Khloe was built like "the lion, the witch, AND the wardrobe." I am officially deceased.

I don't even know what I would've said to that! OH MY GOD, WHAT?! He clearly has straight male (white?) privledge
wii 31st-Jan-2013 11:30 pm (UTC)
he has male privilege, gay men in general are just as misogynistic tbh but i agree with the rest of your comment. Like what can you even say to that, like it sounds like they wouldn't even listen to you but at the same time it's so infuriating that I'd feel weird if I didn't say something
devochkazhenya 31st-Jan-2013 10:45 pm (UTC)
wow fuck him
classic_mold137 31st-Jan-2013 10:57 pm (UTC)
Ugh, wow.
mmmyesplease 31st-Jan-2013 11:11 pm (UTC)
OMG my boyfriend does this. He's like, women need to stop whining. Like you don't get into all the clubs you want. OMG YES because that is important. The fact that I don't have to pay cover.

...And you're still dating this dickbag because...?
kurtvonnegut 31st-Jan-2013 11:42 pm (UTC)

dirtyknife 1st-Feb-2013 05:03 am (UTC)
