Potato 08.2013 - Happy Birthday!
Koyama & Tegoshi prepares a cake as present for Shige & Massu's birthdays! The couples were parted and the birthday boys didn't know what was happening!



KoyaTego: Let's decorate!

K: This is the first time for Tegoshi to prepare a whole cake, right?
T: Yes! I mean, there's no need to bake sweets, you can just buy and eat them, if I have the time to bake I'd do something else.
K: I do them every month...with Potato. Are you criticizing that?! (lol)
T: It's good for you, because you like to cook!
K: This time we prepared a cake for Shige and Massu, ok? It's fun to do it for somebody else. I was surprised by Tegoshi's sense.
T: Keii-chan was as expected. Maybe a little girly? (lol)
K: This conversation is already hard to me (lol). But Tegoshi's very good with celebrations!
T: I love them! If I'm out for dinner with friends and it's somebody's birthday I'd pretend to go to the toilet and instead I'd go buy a cake. If I know it earlier I'd buy a bouquet.
K: So cool~!
T: It also happened that I celebrated somebody sitting next to me that I didn't know at all. I was sitting on the counter of a bar and I heard "Yesterday it was my birthday" so I asked the waiter to get a cake for that person.
K: That's really something (lol)
T: But you love that too, right?
K: Yes, I do. Sometimes I planned surprise party for friends renting a restaurant and inviting many people. My friends are all very important to me. I want to do all I can for them. This year I received a phone call from Tegoshi at 23:59 of the night of my birthday, he told me: "Happy birthday! You thought I forgot? Everybody must have sent you a mail at midnight so I decided to be the last one to wish you happy birthday". It made my heart skip a beat.
T: Ahahah! (lol)
K: I thought "I really love Tegoshi ♥". My love grew stronger. Of course also the other members sent me wishes. By the way, now that the tour has been decided we're working a lot all together again. This will be our second tour as new NEWS, we want to make it different from the first, we want to have a better quality. Right now we're planning it.
T: We'll have again outdoor stages.
K: Right. Me and Tegoshi really pushed to have again the Chichibunomiya.
T: Because outdoors lives are really special. Indoors ones are great too but there are things you can do only outdoors. Like starting with the light and having the sun setting behind, watching the sky and the moon, it's really unique. Fans can enjoy it as a Summer festival.
K: It's very liberating.
T: Last year there were also girls in bathsuits~ It was a very Summer-y scenery (lol). During lives our and fan's passion mix together, I want to have fun being all turned on.
K: Having a live turned on is something new indeed (lol)
T: To repay fans, if the kittens want some sexy shots we'll try our best!
K: Understood (lol). Let's talk of our plans. "Nagisa no Onesama" is a very Summer-like song, it's fun and fresh.
T: I'd like to hear it playing in a beach house. Listening to it by the sea will surely make couples get closer.
K: I think it'd be great also during a drive. The whole day would get better. Soon I'll leave for the Amazon, I'm very nervous and excited. I'd like to get some advices from Tegoshi.
T: Be careful to leeches. They're scary. They sneak out from every gab and hole and they attach immediately to you. Moreover when you see them you can't pull them off. If you do the teeth will remain in your skin and it'll be itchy for a month. You need to burn the leech and be sure you have no teeth left.
K: Thank you. I also learnt a lot about the food to bring with me from Imoto-san. ItteQ team is amazing! Honestly I'm pretty anxious, but I endure because I want to see the kids smiling.
T: Going to such places can be really hard sometimes. Because Japan is one of the most well-organized place in the world. In some countries it's normal to have bugs in the bedroom of a hotel. Coming back here from such travels really changes your mind. It reflects on your work, Keiichan is also a newscaster so I'm sure it'll be a good experience. You'll be absolutely glad to have done that. Your point of view will be broader.
K: Yes, I think the same so I'll do it. And Tegoshi?
T: I'll go privately to America. I want to go to Los Angeles and Las Vegas, my American friend will guide me.
K: Let's both take care!

[Very cool Tego to celebrate random people's birthday like that I bet it was a girl... But a little less cool to tell to an anxious Koyama about leeches in that way! XDD]

ShigeMassu: Waiting time

S: Every year for my birthday I celebrate with friends in some way.
M: For my 21st birthday I had a big party with 20~30 people. I was really happy. After that I tried to have birthday parties with my friends every year. We always celebrate all together every birthday.
S: Ehh~ Really?
M: We book a restaurant, we all buy birthday presents, a very normal party.
S: Once I received a surprise party: I went out eating with friends as always, and when we reached a bar to drink together they popped the crackers and celebrated me. Once even though it was my birthday they called me "Can we come to your apartment and have a party?" and they actually planned a party for me. Somehow we had a home-made Soumen Nagashi made with a plastic bottle. Of course I was happy but it was my house so I had to clean up later so it was a weird mix of thankfulness and bother (lol)
M: Often it happened that I received the same present from different people. For example, the same pair of speakers. Maybe since I'm so picky people think it's too difficult to buy clothes for me (lol). That's why they do researches and they buy something I will like for sure, and it ends to be a copy. But this also means that they want to buy something that will make me surely happy so I'm very glad.
S: I have a friend that each year decides a theme for birthday presents. One year the theme was "unnecessary things" and he got me a toy of an alien in formaline (lol)
M: We also exchange presents, right?
S: Yep, Massu bought me a T-shirt once.
M: And he gave me a knit. We know each other's tastes and favorite brands well. I just go to a shop that Shige would like and choose an item I wouldn't buy for myself.
S: My birthday is on 11st July. When I went to school we always had exams before the Summer holidays so I never celebrated much with my friends, or better, my birthday was often forgotten...(lol)
M: Mine is on the 4th but I never really cared about that. It's sign of smartness (lol). It means we are good students?
S: No way (lol)
M: I have somehow the idea that people born in Summer months cannot stand the hot weather much. Many people prefer Winter over Summer. I don't know, most people I know think like that.
S: By the way, you said that turning 26 you wanted to become a real adult. Looking back to the past year do you think you achieved your goal?
M: Yes, I think so! Anyway turning 26 I didn't find new things I want to do, things I want to change, etc. I just received a lot from work and people around me, it was a year that really changed me. I want to go on working hard like this in my 27th year too.
S: Then on 17th July our new album "NEWS" will be released. The first original album of our new formation. I wish it'll be a work that will express who NEWS are once again.
M: I really love our new song "Nagisa no Onesama".
S: It's fresh and funny, a great song to listen to in good weather days by the beach!
M: This year NEWS will also greet their important 10th anniversary. The Summer tour will begin soon, I want our concerts to be a way to say thanks to the fans who supported us and to ourselves who really worked hard in these 10 years.
S: Let's talk about our most recent events too. I started a vegetable garden in my veranda, I bough different kinds of plants!
M: Yesterday I bought black loafers. I didn't buy those since middle school but I fell in love with their design. Now I'm kinda lst if wearing them with socks or not (lol)

I thought this interview was more interesting from the images but well... XD I'll keep posting things to celebrate Shige's birthday *v*
