"Her ambulance visited 37 hospitals before a vacant emergency bed was found".

And then she was told there wasn't a suitable doctor available to treat her injuries. So back into the ambulance...

As for her final performance, all I can say is, "break a leg". Sorry!

I find it disappointing to see such garbage passed off as news. Japan Today should have more self respect than to pander to the celebrities' PR agents like a tabloid newspaper.

"I love how she's been 22 since like 2003"

She has not. She was born June 25, 1986. That makes her 22 since like June 25, 2008.

Heck, this is more interesting than 80% of the news articles!

Good luck with that toe of yours. My family plans to return to the shrine to pray AGAIN for money and your health.

That is exactly what is reported here and also because she is one of the biggest female entertainers, at least for me.

She is trying to look 32 because she is very tiny and looks quite young for her age.

I love how she's been 22 since like 2003.

The things people can love.

Isn't she like really 32 ?

Her official date of birth is 1986, my friend.

"I love how she's been 22 since like 2003" What are you talking about! Morning Musume members (and former members) would never lie about their ages! ;)

She's attending the final concert because it is the concert for which the DVD recording is made. Also one of the main attractions of the concert was the return of the GAM duo, which was suspended 2 years ago after a scandal broke in which Miki Fujimoto (the other half) was caught with her boyfriend by paparazzi. These things matter..
