My opinion on this whole issue is really split: I know that he is just a human being who has a right for privacy and that of course he gets stressed and things as well. But he is an idol, and for the fame you get you have to pay a price, that's just the way it is. I know that it's rude and annoying if fans don't follow the rules, but you can't be an idol without your fans, somehow you just have to deal with it. I don't want to think of Sakurai-kun as two-faced, I've always liked what I have seen of him and I want to believe that he is just stressed and over-worked and that it will be better for him soon.
What really annoys me about that article is that they make it look like as if only overseas fans are behaving bad. As far as I can remember those umbrella-throwing, spitting and calling fans ugly and unpleasant-incidents happened with japanese fans, didn't they? Some of them don't follow the rules either, even during the recent 24hTV, they were told not to try to shake hands with the Arashi-members during the donation-time, but many of them tried to do it nevertheless. I can't even imagine if I really would be able to hold myself together and behave well if I had the once-in-a-lifetime-chance to see the idol I admired for so long up close...
