Shimura Ken's FIRST STAGE ~Hajimete no Ippo~ [2009.03.21]
Guest : Kamei Eri & Junjun
- Even though there are already 4 members in Morning Musume that are at the legal age to be drinking, the members don't drink much since people like Aichan can't hold her liquor well. Yasuda and Yoshizawa drink frequently according to Eri.
- Eri takes 30minutes or so to finish her bath. She starts washing her hair, then her face, then her neck. So basically its from top to bottom. Meanwhile, the duration of Junjun's bath depends on her mood. Usually, even though she wants to stay in the bath a little longer, she'll still end up coming out after 5-10 minutes. There are even times whereby she took only 2 minutes. She said it was because of the warmness. But apparently, even though back in China, the bath water is warm too, she can stand it.
- Eri will normally send around 5-6 mails per day and most of them are to her manager. Since she meets the rest of the members almost everyday, there's not much of need for them to be mailing one another daily. For Junjun, she calls more then she sends mails using her phone cos' she finds it troublesome to type out the Japanese characters. Eri then says that even though Junjun tries all her best to type out the Japanese words, she often leaves out the -san of Kamei-san. Junjun gets reminded often about it by some other members. The hosts suggested Kamei Eri-chan might be easier to remember to add in the -chan, so Junjun asked Eri if she could call her by Eri-chan and Eri agreed without any hesitation. Junjun will be Eri's first junior to be allowed to call Eri by Eri-chan whereby the -chan is actually an informal way of adressing one. As we can see, the 7th and 8th generation are always calling the GoRokkies by Takahashi-san and such. Now that Eri actually allowed Junjun to address her by -chan, it shows that she has never only accepted the China member, but also, on good terms with her. But anyway, Junjun's mistakes were not intentional of course. Its because in Chinese, there's no such thing as -san or -chan. Chinese just call one another by their names.
- Eri's type of guy are the guys who will not ask her "You're already 20-years-old and you don't know?". She wants the type who will teach her patiently instead of making fun/scolding her. Lets just skip Junjun's parts, lol, too much of requirements to be her boyfriend (Anyway, if you're really dying to be her boyfriend or something, make sure you're tall. Cos' its one of her basic requirements, lol.)
- Eri thinks that Ueshima (One of the hosts) looks good in orange. Scroll up and looked at the picture, the guy in orange is Ueshima. She thinks that he's funny too. Eri being a little too frank, actually said that when Ueshima (He's comedian) makes an appearance on a show, he don't seem to be funny at first. But she added on that at the end she'll still find his jokes funny. There was once whereby Eri was on the same show as Ueshima (Hello! Morning to be exact), despite being a comedian, he was pretty serious during the show when he was trying to teach Morning Musume about reactions.
