A few of those pictures are really creepy, honestly.

Anyway, as long as he isn't being an asshole, I don't care. Real shitty of someone to gossip on them though.

So sick of these tabloids

Yuri has been getting popular this past year on his own
A song that got over 100 million streams


Stop trying to ruin their lives

It’s frustrating because I’m the US I feel like the sentiment would be that it’s no ones business what she is doing on her personal time even if it’s true, but also what’s the point of damaging someone’s life and career over something so excessively trivial.

They really need to do away with the dating rule. So long as it’s private I don’t see what the issue is. But regardless these magazines need to find something better to report on

[Celedam]

There's a difference between a 15-year-old girl dating and a 23-year-old woman dating. The management has had to deal with both, and it dealt with them differently.

It also appears to depend on the person/situation:

- GoMaki recently stated that she was with her boyfriend (now husband) for a good long time
- Ayaya and Tachibana Keita's relationship seemed to be more of an open secret
- Yaguchi and Miki both got Friday-ed so...

It does seem UF* is pretty inconsistent with the rule and what they're willing to turn a blind eye to.

That being said... Yuuri's cute. Good for Sayuki!

[Sohee]

If fans are annoyed at is being reported, it sounds like they don't care and just want people to leave Sayuki alone? Good if so. UF don't be fskn stupid pls.
Just let it slide and say they're friends fjkdslkjflsdf

All I care about at the end of the day is if she's happy with the dude.
This tweet made me laugh, though!

(I hate to even say it but, in terms of vocals, he sounds like the Japanese equivalent of Ed Sheeran. )

From Sayuki Takagi to everyone

Thank you for your warm support.

I, Sayuki Takagi, would like to announce that I will be ending my activities with Juice=Juice and Hello! Project.

I am very sorry for the inconvenience and worry caused by this sudden announcement.

As a member of the group, I was not aware of my actions and acted rashly.
I have betrayed the feelings of many people.

Juice=Juice is a place that has taught me many things, a place that has helped me grow in many ways.
Above all, I love and cherish the members of Juice=Juice, and I am filled with regret.

And to all the fans who have supported me, to all the people involved, I'm really sorry for betraying your feelings with my thoughtless actions.

I don't think I can ask for forgiveness.
I've been thinking about how I should take responsibility and how I should repay you, and I've decided to report to you in this way.

The time I spent as a member of Hello Pro Egg and Juice=Juice was irreplaceable for me, and it was an unforgettable time for me to meet my precious friends, staff, and fans. I really can't thank you enough.

Please continue to support Juice=Juice.
