The inner workings of Johnny's + Why call teenage girls fat?

[walkwithheroes]

Somehow this very insightful article on JE found its way to me. I didn't want to keep reading it, as some stuff was slightly disturbing, but I couldn't stop. It was like a car crash or a Harry Potter novel. I just couldn't look away, even when things got disturbing or stupid. A world of pretty boys is only a click away.

I can't uderstand the chubby/fat stuff either. I guess ppl will always be obsessed with weight esp. as it seems so important no weight euals desireability. I never was a friend of that scheme. :(

Re: Kitigawa's alleged pedophilia
This is one of the reasons why I don't like the whole JE concept. On one hand I'm a big fan of SMAP, but to think that they might have received *special treatment* by Kitigawa (as the latest book had claimed - the guy who wrote it mentioned one Smapu by name) makes me sick. Sick, sad and totally mad at Kitigawa.

The thing I can't stand is that an average person writing for a magazine or whose a fan of the show or whatever, will basically call a young woman fat to her face. It's like: Who are you to talk?

Plus, the media also complains when actresses are thin. So, would they like these teenage girl/young women to be super thin or would they like them to be a normal?

They need to pick one. Because more and more actresses are coming out and saying they have/had an eating disorder.

Sick, sad and totally mad at Kitigawa.I know. The whole idea of it is just sick and disturbing. I've never read any of the books (doubt they're translated), but so many of his former talents have made claims against him. It just makes you want to grab all the boys and ship them off somewhere for safety

I think Akiko Wada should really look herself in the mirror, she's downright ugly and she even looks like a man (in drag).

I'm sorry, because this is not very polite, but since says that those girls are "fat" (and even "weird") I think someone should point out things that are even more evident.

That's true. People shouldn't waste their time in talking about a young person and if they are "fat" or not. They are more important things going on.
