Yayyyy

Fans are saying that BABYMETAL related members usually cannot use social media. Maybe she is done with her work with them?

Hope to see more of her soon!!!

Holy crap! A classic Morning Musume。 TV appearance just showed up on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert! In his "Meanwhile" segment, Colbert was talking about sumo wrestling continuing in Japan during the COVID-19 quarantine, and he suggested that Japan should return to more traditional entertainment like this:



(I can't find video of the Colbert segment online just yet.)

^ Thanks! I figured it would be up pretty soon. When I checked their YouTube channel, the show hadn't yet ended on the West Coast and only the monologue had been uploaded.

Okai Chisato has ended her contract with J.P. Room and will retire from entertainment. :crying:

Expected at this point, but I'm still sad about it. I wanted to see/hear her sing on stage one more time.

Wow.

I did not ever expect Riho to start an Instagram, this is great!

Also, she already has more followers 100k+ than quite a number of more traditionally active OGs.

As I understand it, she is a freelancer and not under contract with Amuse Inc.

Essentially, she was just doing a favor for an old friend from ASH.

I imagine many of those followers are BABYMETAL fans who know little or nothing about her time with MM. Some commenters said things like "I've been a fan of yours since you debuted last year."
