E-Girls : Celebration!






E-Girls : Celebration!

What do you get when you put the members of Dream, Happiness and FLOWER together ? A room full of the cutest ladies in JPop who collectively are known as E-Girls.

E-Girls has a new song coming out called Celebration! And Avex has decided to tempt the hearts of mankind with a short preview of beauty and talent . While this is only a teaser ,it is enough to wet your taste buds for what is to come next. If you follow these groups closely ,then one thing you will notice is that the groups are doing parts of their signature dances within the songs dance.
With the makeup ,costumes and camera shots the teaser creates an effect that makes the members of Happiness and FLOWER look older than they really are and blend in perfectly with their big sisters DREAM.

Really looking forward to the full release.

Elegant, Romantic Updo Styles.

I love wedding events. This is the time where every woman will try to look their best. Some prefer to wear their pretty LBD; some prefer elegant evening gowns. I guess it depends on the cultures and individual preferences. For Persian and Armenian weddings, looking your absolute best is A MUST! Long beaded evening dresses, glittery shoes, elegant updos and top notch makeup ...are pretty much normal. For men, shiny suit is a must. Besides, it matches the elegant, beautiful event. :) I love dressing up and I really don't mind going through the hassle of finding the right dress, or getting my hair and makeup done. Of course it will cost me a lot of money, but that's OK :). It's a celebration after all, why not looking pretty. :)  So, my boyfriend's cousin is getting married this Saturday, which means I need to get my hair and makeup done. I have booked this girl from a local salon in Studio City (Glendale salons are fully booked! 300 guests I can only imagine...) to do my hair & makeup and I just hope she's good because I have never used her service before. *Fingers crossed*. She charges $250 for both, which is not bad at all. After emailing back and forth with her, I finally sent these following pictures:


PS: These updos have always been my favorite:




















The thing is.... I like every style!!! I still don't know which one I want one. Ha!Ha! I am thinking of getting Nicole Ritchie's bohemian updo. It's always been my favorite. What do you think? Which one is your favorite?

Bimyo, Tsuntube, HELLOPRO TIME!




Bimyo, Tsuntube, HELLOPRO TIME!

As asked by the readers of the site here are the recent episodes of AKB48 Bimyo ,Tsunku`s Indie Idol show Tsuntube [this was a very uninteresting episode] and I added a link to subbed H!P HELLOPRO TIME! Episodes
Bimyo

http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XMzI1ODQxNzgw.html

Here is the first skit subbed it`s a different take on the Senbatsu elections



Tsuntube



Even I found this week`s episode dull.


As PIH has a lot of H!P fans , I wanted to find you something special. There is a group that subs the HELLOPRO TIME! Shows .I am including a link to the site ,they are around one episode I believe behind the broadcast schedule.
However even saying that this link will keep H!P fans viewing the show fan subbed archives for hours.

NOTICE ON IDOL SHOWS
Almost every idol group large and small ,regional Indie or national has a television show of some kind .It is very difficult with my music schedule and that of one of my daughters to watch, record or give you every show or appearance that a group makes.

It is my hope that I can add more writers to the site .Writers who focus on one group or agency ,which can bring the readers some of the little things that my time may not allow me to focus on.

Dorothy Little Happy: HAPPY DAYS! [Preview]





Dorothy Little Happy: HAPPY DAYS! [Preview]

Dorothy Little Happy released a short preview on their radio show. The new song is called “HAPPY DAYS!” and features the group’s main vocalist Mari. The song is a perfect fit for an anime theme song .No word of any tie ups at this time. Dorothy Little Happy will be releasing again on January 12, 2012.



DLH Has remodeled their HP, it`s very cool looking

Alice Juban :Girls Pop`n Party





Alice Juban :Girls Pop`n Party

This is not so much a group preview as it is something that I wanted to show you . I have spoken many times that the genre below the major name groups is a fun world to live in and 90% of all idols live in this underground.

When you put members of several groups together from the same company for a concert you get Alice Juban.

This is Alice Juban performing in concert for a  show . At 2:30 in the broadcast two members of Pureful will stage dive into the crowd.

Anyway this is just a small look at the fun you experience in the underground idol world . Highlights of this broadcast for me was the members from Pureful staging diving at the start and ending of the program and all of Alice Juban doing a heavy metal salute to wotas.

The Independent underground is the best kept secret in the genre and if you’re willing to take the time to get to know it , you`ll discover a world were idols are much more free-spirited then their major big sisters.

Have You Guys Tried Remington T Studio Curling Wand?





I am actually wondering how many of you have tried this Remington T Studio Pearl Ceramic Styling Wand, and if you guys loved it or not. I bought one last week after reading great reviews on Target website. I include the link there and if you see the reviews, it actually has 57 five-stars ratings! Amazing!!! That's what I initially thought before I purchased this cute pink wand. Oh yes, the price was $29.99 and I got the big wand so I can create wavy, soft curls. 

Description of the Product:
  • Barrel Size: 1.5", 1"
  • Features: High Heat, Temperature Indicator, 30-Sec. Heat Up, Multiple Heat Settings, Automatic Shut-Off, Swivel Cord, LED Indicator Light
  • Material: Plastic, Ceramic
  • Heat Maximum: 410 degrees
  • Power Source: Electric
  • Includes: Heat Glove
  • Warranty Description: 4 Year Limited Manufacturer Warranty


Review:

I seriously don't know if it's me or the product, but I don't think Remington T Studio Styling Wand works for me. I am not that picky when it comes to beauty tools as long as they work fine and give beautiful results. I tried an hour or so to curl my hair with this curling wand, but the curl didn't happen. LOL. Well, I finally gave up, just put a dress on and went to my friend's wedding. Well, to be honest, my hair was quite wavy, but not as wavy/curly as I would have liked. I would love to show you guys pictures of my hair from different angles, but I didn't take a lot of pictures that day. However, I have this one and only picture that shows my wavy hair a bit close up... 





Unfortunately, I didn't really like the result. So I went back to Target yesterday and returned this stuff. I am still looking for that magic curling wand that can transform my hair from blah to wow! If you have any suggestion, please let me know!




Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Love,

Fruity Girls : Nine Fruits To Love




Fruity Girls : Nine Fruits To Love
Every time a news report on a new idol group airs on TV ,it starts the same way with making a reference to AKB48 making idol genre popular and new challengers are rising up to face them.

Well this is not a TV station and those words will not be used to introduce this unit.

Coming from the city of Sapporo is nine idols who represent fruit .Together they are known as Fruity Girls. Fruity Girls are made up of the following members
Asuka


http://ameblo.jp/fruity-asuka/
Misa


http://ameblo.jp/fruity-misamisa
Anzu


http://ameblo.jp/fruity-anzu
Yuka

Group Blog


http://ameblo.jp/fruity-iwano

Fruity Girls use a ranking system to rank their members similar to an AKB48 Senbatsu. Every three months their points are totaled and half the members become the first troops and the rest become the second troops. Based on the system it`s designed to feature more than nine members as the first two groups are or should be split evenly five members each and every one below ten become the reserve troops. if you end up in first place three times you enter the groups “hall of fame” .

The breakdown between the rankings more or less defines what the member’s promotional activities will be and overall popularity. The members earn vote points based on the actions of their fans [I’ll explain below].There is no points for dating or any other kinds of nonsense that you see with AKBN0.

This ranking system is actually really cool and tasteful and is something that you can use with any group .

If you join their official group fan club called ` mix juice` you earn the right to vote  for as long as you are a member. This is worth one vote card active  every Sunday.


Next if you enter the live performance `fruit basket` ,you get another vote card.

If you buy a Fruity CD you get two votes

If you buy 10,000 yen worth of goods you get 10 votes ,a 3,000 yen shirt earns you 6 votes .

After you collect your vote cards , you fill them out and mail them in. Relative’s votes do not count to prevent vote rigging.

Currently the group is in their third voting cycle which runs from November to January .The second vote cycle resulted in the following results
1.Aya 869 votes 2.Misa 571 votes 3. Asuka 519 votes 4.Maho 510 votes 5.Risa 469 votes 6.Anzu 409 votes 7.Yui 328 votes 8.Yuka 25 votes 9.Miduki 212 votes.

As a group their songs are good and easy to get into.






I don`t know how their future will turn out , but they are off to a promising start and the voting system has me wanting to revisit them and see how the voting is going.

So what do you think about the voting system ? As for me I can support this ,compared to what they could be doing ,this is a good way to max out a small fan base and grow it larger.
