Well... I wasn't going to post this because a) it's Arashi and, b) it's not the usual point-and-laugh gossip - And yet here I am posting it. This is a straight translation of the article posted on Tantei File on the 7th of November.
So without further adieu...
An AV actress who it seems went through 4 of the Arashi 'brothers'...
It's a shock scandle spreading ballistically over the net and across the world. For the group who have even exceeded SMAP, the shock is 'megaton class'.
The origin of this lies with an article published in Shukan Bunshun on the 4th. Makinoda Aya, who committed suicide, had made frank admissions to a reporter from the magazine. [Seems she died in late October].
According to the article, she revealed had a one night fling with MatsuJun, was 'sex friends' with Ohno and Nino, and had been living together with Aiba. Was her only salvation was that Sakurai Sho disliked her?
Incidentally she also frankly revealed in the article that she often had relations with other Johnny's idols. [I believe Yamapi's name may be getting tossed around in there too.] The already deceased AV star has caused a severe earthquake, risking life through such bold conduct.
Because pictures were also published, the ripples are being spread and speculations are flying on the internet. [pictures were print only - haven't found any online yet]
"Because Koki had his photo taken on an actual date with someone in 2006 he was thoroughly targeted by the agency, but the truth is he was in the company of a different AV actress. At the time I was a fan and I revealed it to the manager to discuss. A few days later, they'd prepared a hotel and when Tanaka went there it seemed the AV actress was there. So this time there is a possibility that the agency prepared don't you think?" [Entertainment Reporter]
By preparation does that mean the second a scandalous photo is taken, you treat that person like they're a nuisance? [referring to the treatment of Koki I think].
The person who can reveal more information is sadly already deceased, so whether it's true or not, we may never know. Yet even though we can't expect any fresh revelations, rumors are still rising [about the relation of all of this to her death].
In the true style of the Johnny's empire, there has been no TV broadcast regarding this, but Arashi have only just been announced as the Chairmen for the New Years Eve singing contest... For fans of the group who have a popular, fresh and friendly image, feelings are extremely complicated.
Perhaps in the case of 'Arashi' [storm], name is destiny, because this time Johnny's idols have caused an unimaginable storm.
The original magazine who published the story have an article titled 'the confessions of the girl Arashi devoured' saying before she jumped off the 7th story of an apartment building, she revealed the darkness of the show business. Unfortunaltey it doesn't seem to be available to read online, so this half-assed Tantei File thing is all I got.
I dont know how many other legitimate newspapers or magazines will touch on this for fear of being smite out of existence by the Jimusho, but I hope we hear more soon.
EDIT: Pics of the original article have been found (Thank you
Butterfly_lovex) but I can't read the article.
Also Jin seems to have been Friday'd again for clubbing but I dont subscribe to the mag so I cant read it. Nice to know he ain't stoppin yet. Pi has been busted lip synching, but thats nothing new so I didn't read the whole thing.
