Japan‘s best-known pop band faces an uncertain future after one of its members was found cavorting naked in a public park in Tokyo in the early hours today.
Tsuyoshi Kusanagi, a member of the hugely successful band Smap, was arrested on suspicion of public indecency after police officers found him seated naked on the grass near the Roppongi entertainment district at 3am.
The comment from the government dude is a classic as well (he really must have pissed them off as it unusual for Japanese politicians to use such strong language to a news agency where foreigners would get the story!)
Quote:
The Kyodo news agency quoted Kuniyo Hatoyama, the internal affairs and communications minister, as describing the singer as a “bastard”.
“His actions are shameful for a person who is asking the public to shoulder a financial burden,” he said.
the Japanese cops have let him go after an apology to the media and the communications ministry..
he must have been very drunk – as the weather in Tokyo at 3am is little better than it would be in England or Denmark, certainly too cold to be running around stark bollock naked..
apparently his “boy band” still exists, and he is no spring chicken.. (all of them are in their mid-late 30s!) maybe I should learn to sing in an Oriental language :laugh_at:
