But then, when you follow a popular organization like this, something is bound to be happening all the time, right? Anyway, let’s begin!

The 13th NIKKAN SPORTS WINTER 2010 DRAMA AWARDS winners have been announced, and to no-one’s surprise, Johnny’s has once again dominated the awards. But what else is to be expected when you leave the voting up to Japanese women in their 20’s? (Relevance bolded.)

Best Drama:

1 Yamato Nadeshiko Shichi Henge
2 Code Blue Season 2
3 Tokujo Kabachi!!
4 Ryoma den
5 Hidarime Tantei EYE

Best Actor:

1 Kamenashi Kazuya (KAT-TUN)
2 Yamashita Tomohisa (NEWS)
3 Sakurai Sho (Arashi)
4 Fukuyama Masaharu
5 Yamada Ryosuke (HSJ)

Best Supporting Actor:

1 Kagawa Teruyuki
2 Tegoshi Yuya (NEWS)
3 Miyao Shuntaro
4 Uchi Hiroki (Johnny’s Jr.)
5 Asari Yosuke

In other news, Ueto Aya was spotted leaving Morita Go’s (V6) apartment, according to Josei 7. Apparently, rumors similar to this first appeared seven years ago. Could it be that their relationship is still going strong? (Click the picture for a larger view)

Tegoshi Yuya (NEWS) was reported to have been in a car accident earlier this week, according to FRIDAY. Rear-ending another vehicle (Sound familiar, Matsujun?) while exiting a parking lot, Tegoshi claimed that he thought the other vehicle was going to yield to him. Apparently not. Thankfully, though, both parties were unhurt in this incident.

Johnny’s Entertainment is seemingly working in collaboration with a Chinese entertainment agency to form a Chinese-Japanese boyband. Hunan TV has contacted JE and decided to hold a televised competition welcoming all Japanese and Chinese boys and men, ages 12-26, where the winners will form the new boyband and join Hunan TV as hosts for a new TV program.

Nintendo has released six CMs featuring Arashi’s Ohno Satoshi and Ninomiya Kazunari (commonly referred to as Ohmiya). They can be seen here. Watching the interaction between these two is amusing! Definitely a must-see. (Translations provided here!)

And that’s all for now! What are your thoughts on these items? Are Ueto and Morita cute together? Should Tegoshi have been paying more attention? And who do you think should have been first in those award categories mentioned above?

Thanks to KAT-TUN BtheR, we're brought the news that Kame will become the replacement baseball newscaster on sunday nights at 11:55. I'm not much of a KAT-TUN fan so I don't know all that much about them, but this seems really unexpected and unusual for a Johnny's. I do know that Kame loves baseball so I know he'll enjoy this! Also, KAT-TUN BtheR is a brand new blog (only opened this month) and so far posts about news related to KAT-TUN, so if you're interested in the group this is definitely a blog you should definitely add this to your RSS feeds :D]]> Kamenashi becomes Sportscaster!

You have to wonder how these rankings/lists are done… Who has the time to sit and wonder to themselves “Which of our celebrities are the most masochistic?” Well, apparently the people in Japan do!! And good thing. Because they come up with lists like this. Keeps me entertained for hours.

Aramatheydidn’t@livejournal thankfully has translated a whole article regarding this, so if you are confused (and why wouldn’t you know if you’ve been in this fandom for this long 0_0) , click on the link for more information about being… ‘M’. Anyways, here’s the list! :D

Top 30 Rankings
1. Wentz Eiji
2. Daigo
3. Yamada Shintarou
4. Koike Teppei
5. Kusanagi Tsuyoshi (SMAP)
6. Eita
7. Aiba Masaki (Arashi)
8. Sugiura Taiyou
9. Kokubun Taichi (TOKIO)
10. Taguchi Junnosuke (KAT-TUN)
11. Yamamoto Yusuke
12. Mizobata Junpei
13. Hayami Mokomichi
14. Domoto Kouichi (Kinki Kids)
15. Miura Haruma
16. Masuda Takahisa (NEWS)
17. Miyake Ken (V6)
18. Mizushima Hiro
19. Yamashita Tomohisa (NEWS)
20. Koizumi Koutarou
21. Tegoshi Yuya (NEWS)
22. Ikuta Toma (Jr.)
23. Hideaki Takizawa (Tackey & Tsubasa)
24. Okada Masaki
25. Satou Takeru
26. Tanihara Shousuke
27. Shirota Yuu
28. Hosokawa Shigeki
29. Nishikido Ryo (Kanjani∞/NEWS)
30. Mukai Osamu

So… according to this list, 4/6ths of NEWS is M. Really? That is… so damn amusing XD. But I only believe that Ryo is M while with Kanjani… It’s true! He’s kind of S with NEWS. I don’t know about the others…. How do you guys feel about this?

PS I have a question. Where the hell is Maruyama (Kanjani)!? He’s like… the most noticeably M Johnny I’ve ever seen!!!
