SMAP to stay as five
SMAP appeared live on SMAPxSMAP tonight to apologize as well as to ask viewers/fans for continued support.
Shingo looked like he had difficulty delivering his speech... Have the feeling that they were "forced" to appear on TV to clarify things up. But hearing fans' letters being read out was too touching!
However, I feel that this is only a stop-gap measure for the short term, as they did not announce if they'll be staying or going?
Furthermore, I had read reports that they had canceled their Dome tour for 25th anni concerts as far back as December!
Does that mean their fans would not get to see them in a farewell tour if they were to leave? So much uncertainty....
