Manami Konishi, Becky, Saki Fukuda win beauty awards for their hairstyles

TOKYO —

Actress Manami Konishi, 30, “talent” Becky, 25, and actress Saki Fukuda received recognition Thursday at “The Beauty Week Award,” an awards ceremony held at Tokyo’s Hotel Seiyo Ginza to celebrate the hairstyles of celebrities.

When Becky received her trophy, she declared, “I think I put more effort into hair care than anyone else, so I’m really happy. But when I get married, I think I’m going to chop it all off!”

At the Nippon Television charity show “24-hour TV,” Becky had performed with NEWS members Tomohisa Yamashita, 24, and Ryo Nishikido, 24, who were found to be infected with the H1N1 influenza virus, but she smiled, “I got tested and came out negative.”

It's so nice to see everyone being kind to Becky for a change.

Huh? These three winners will never look so beautiful until they do Japanese kimono hairstyles and wear kimono outfits.

So Becky's going to get married. Has the poor guy been warned? She'll probably make Mrs Hatoyama seem relatively sane. Nice knees though.

“talent” Becky

Got that right

When Becky received her trophy, she declared, “I think I put more effort into hair care than anyone else, so I’m really happy. But when I get married, I think I’m going to chop it all off!”

She's a real catch

BudTech you are right. In the streets of Tokyo, you can see great hairstyles than these. Yes, me too think that kimono range is the best. Very feminine and elegant.

I'm sorry, but what the F does this have to do with the hairstyle award?

Why, pray tell, would Becky consider "chopping off" her hair when she gets married, as she says in this article?

Chop off her head, understandable, but long hair which actually looks quite nice??

This is just so inane and such an obvious publicity stunt, I can`t believe anyone is falling for it.
