So you were living the life of an ANA cabin attendant where you capture the attention of many as you strut through airports and hotel lobbies worldwide. All of a sudden you have to be responsible for another life as your mother was for you. Not having that attention you once had is too much of a burden and you want to act as though it (the child birth) never happened. She is not the first that has committed this evil deed and as many have already indicated, not the last…

Newsman, not that I’m defending JT (I’ve had post removed far more than anyone here) however, this is the “Photo of The Day” and nothing more. It’s not there as news, but as displayed “Photo of the Day.”

A better response to the cops would have been;** I thought this was the 50 Meter Freestyle for the Emperor’s Cup.**

Another black eye for the keystones of Japan! I assume it was a frontal handcuff if any at all. Luckily he did not choose to take a keystone with him. Japan it’s time to change procedures with murder suspects. Reminds me of the time when the cops came up on two guys fighting in the street and the cops grabbed the guy on top (a lawyer) and allowed the other guy (bad guy) to go free. As the cops held the lawyer down the bad guy regained his knife and kill the lawyer.

I am guilty of contributing to the 48.2% rating SMAP received, by falling asleep with the TV still tuned to NHK prior to their performance. Can I have whatever my contributed percentage was during their performance returned please?

Have to agree with one other poster here, she can’t hold an interview without mentioning John Lennon, due to it being of no interest with just her as the person of interest. I see no creativity in hammering nails in a cutting board or listening to lyrics with no meaning, but calling it avant-garde to make people believe it makes sense. Oh yeah, going to India to gain “inspiration” but also hold an exhibition. Maybe the good folks of India may pick up the vibes and be inspired as well. Near centenarian Yoko should be channeling her youthful energy to helping the poor in India instead of lifting cash from their pockets. Did I mentioned I don't like this person?

Let me get this straight, the owner of the complex falsely accuses Konishiki and his wife of an offense and becomes irate. Konishiki feeling threaten shoves the guy and he cries assault. Hmm, year ago this was considered a mild altercation as you see it numerous times on the streets where a drunk is shoving police and they are let go 10 minutes later with no charges filed. Makes you wonder! Oh, did I mention this was top news in the crime section over a woman who put a plastic bag over her 3-year old child’s head. Could be just the sequence of events as they happen.

If I were to have a baby with an AKB48 member, I would be placed in prison. Aren’t if not all of these girls under age? What a sick society!

This usually spells the beginning of the end for most talents with talent. Being that Suzanne has little to know skills; I expect she will do well in this book with the Otakus looking for new book for their collection as long as the goods hold up.

Again I ask, who was the competition? They stand there as though they eliminated a very competitive group of candidates.

At 23 the only stress I had was wondering if I had enough cash in my pocket to continue quenching my thirst in the next bar I stumbled into. Most here have hit it right on the nose, she will know what stress is once her star quality light begins to go dim in about 10 years. She is attractive though!

Bravo, welcome to 2011, almost 2012 BS Fuji Live Prime News. Contrary to popular rumor, there are foreigners living in Japan who would also like to know what's going on. However, I have to hand it to you folks, there are other networks with their head still in the sand.

A lot of that going on lately here. Are these cats making that much money twisting, cutting, washing and dying hair?
