Arashi tops Nikkei’s ‘Talent Power Ranking’
Which celebrities are drawing the most attention and have the highest name value? The answers were revealed through the June issue of information magazine ‘Nikkei Entertainment!‘.
This ‘Talent Power Ranking’ is held every quarter by Nikkei Entertainment and was created by ARCHITECT Co., Ltd.. They take a survey and examine people’s “degree of recognition” and “degree of interest” out of 1,196’s talents. From the survey, they calculate each talent’s “talent power score” and a wide range of celebrities can be on this ranking including actor/actress, comedians, musicians, athletes, announcers and more.
The winner for the latest ranking is none other than Arashi. The group moved up one spot from their second place finish last year. The individual members also ranked in the top 50, Sakurai Sho is #15, Aiba Masaki is #28, Ohno Satoshi is #30, Ninomiya Kazunari is #31 and Matsumoto Jun is #41.
Southern All Stars raised up their ranking to claim second place even though they’re on hiatus. The magazine analyzed that it’s mainly because of the constructive activities of Kuwata Keisuke for supporting the victims of the Tohoku earthquake. He had produced a charity songs and held concerts in Miyagi, and such activities raised the profile of Southern All Stars.
Matsushima Nanako ranked in third place. It seems that her roles in NTV’s hit drama ‘Kaseifu no Mita‘ and Fuji TV’s Getsu9 drama ‘Lucky Seven‘ was good enough to give her the third spot.
