The love hotel affair of Katsuhide Uekusa of “Shonen-tai” and the former president of Snow Peak… “Top 3 Infidelity Articles” that attracted attention in the past 22 years.

In 2022, many scandals caused a stir in the world, and among them, news related to “adultery” caught people’s attention. Here are the top three most-read articles on adultery on FRIDAY Digital in 2022.

No. 3 Atsushi Tamura: “Welcome to adultery!

We will listen to the stories of people who are currently having an affair and find out what is adultery all about. This is a corner to explore deeply what is infidelity. I’m looking for people who can tell me about their ongoing affairs!

Atsushi Tamura of “London Boots No. 1 and No. 2” announced that he is looking for “people who are having an affair” for a project on his YouTube channel. The image shows a woman sitting through a “frosted glass” and Jun posing as if he were Bunsha Katsura, the former MC of “Welcome Newlyweds” (TV Asahi). (Bunshi Katsura, the former MC of “Newlywed” on TV Asahi), and Atsushi in a pose, seemingly in high spirits about the new project.

However, Twitter users were not happy about this.

“Please tell us the purpose of the program so that the distribution does not offend public order and morals.

Have you ever had an affair? Have you ever had an affair? I wish you would think a little more about this project.

It’s seriously impossible. I know someone who committed suicide because of an affair. There are things that can be made into a story and things that can’t, right?

Criticisms like these poured in.

Jun then “hit back” at the user who sent the objection. He said that the user’s icon used an image and name of a famous anime, and that the user’s name and account name should be changed to “I’m not going to do that.

First of all, do you have permission to use the account name and the account image? We’ll start with that.

Jun also posted a link regarding copyrights.

In response to Jun’s retort, another user wrote

Then, if the same question was asked by a permitted account, would you answer it properly? It’s a child’s quarrel.

Another user commented, “So, if a permitted account asked the same question, would you answer it properly? The user later revealed that he had received a DM from Jun with an image.

《An even more junior guy who can’t keep quiet about that kid’s fight and walks in…

The DM was clearly inciting in a tone that made fun of the general public. Then another user who had received a DM from Jun disclosed the exchange.

Jun probably didn’t like that I was being stingy with his adultery project. So he tried to counter by shifting the subject and being stingy with icons and usernames.

He also said on TV that he has a cell phone just for talking to the “anti’s” and that “the anti’s are all my friends.

It is surprising that he was sending DMs behind the scenes to make fun of ordinary people. On TV, he acted like a man with deep pockets, but when he voiced his opinion on the affair project, he was blocked, and several people posted pictures of him.

For example, a user who commented, “Adultery is a bad thing; it should not be glorified.

For example, a user who commented, “Adultery is bad, don’t glorify it,” was blocked. I don’t like atsushi Tamura #Adultery

He reported with an image of the blocked image.

Jun Tamura then reported that he had received so much criticism that he thought it was a bad idea.

I want you to listen to the opinions of not only the adulterers but also the adulteresses! He suggested in very polite language, “I want to hear the opinions of the adulterer as well as the adulteress! Nice polite words, indeed it was! I thought, so I immediately created a form to accept the proposal.”

It seems that the project will be changed to a project that listens to both sides as When he wrote, “I like your polite words,” he may have been hurt by the harsh words from the public.

Unlike television, which uses the public airwaves, you can watch YouTube if you don’t want to. However, many people may be looking for “responsibility to transmit” because of Jun’s strong influence….

No. 2 “Shonen-tai” Katsuhide Uekusa’s shocking “love hotel affair” with a slutty and beautiful president!

It was still chilly on February 14, the night of Valentine’s Day. A man dressed in a down coat, black cap, and black mask emerged from a love hotel in the suburbs of Chiba City. He was Katsuhide Uekusa, 55, of “Shonen-tai.

Uekusa came out of a reasonably priced love hotel, where a two-hour break costs from 3,000 yen. He walked to his minivan parked in the parking lot and removed the blindfold board that was propped up on the license plate. Uekusa moved the van to the entrance of the hotel, and a woman quickly got in. She was a beautiful, model-like woman who resembled the actress Maki Tamaru. After getting her in, Uekusa’s car drove off in the direction of Tokyo.

Many of you may not have heard the name “Uekusa” in a while. The Shonen-tai was once called “Janie Kitagawa’s masterpiece. However, since leaving Johnny’s in December 2008 with Kazuakiro Nishikiori (56), Uekusa has not been very active.

One reason for Uekusa’s departure was the death of Mr. Janney. The other reason seems to be that he felt that if he stayed with Johnny’s, unlike Noriyuki Higashiyama (55), he would not be able to build a place for himself in the office. He left the name “Shonen-tai,” and although the group has not disbanded, he has not been active as a member of the group at all.

After leaving the office, Uekusa started his own private office, opened a YouTube channel, and even tried his hand at stage direction. However, it is difficult to say that any of these activities have generated much interest.

Uekusa is currently obsessed with a beautiful model-like woman who was staying with him at the love hotel. She is in her late 30s, and let’s call her Ms. A. A friend of Uekusa’s tells us, “Ms. A is based in Chuo-ku, Tokyo.

A is the president of an event planning and PR company headquartered in Chuo-ku. Mr. A was originally a part-timer at a directly managed store that handled products for a company that was the parent company of the current company. There, he was recognized for his abilities and was selected as a department manager, and then became the president of a subsidiary company established to expand the entertainment business.

He is now an independent president, having received a transfer of shares from the former parent company in the form of a “goodwill split. It seems that he is also helping Uekusa-san with YouTube and Instagram live-streaming.

Indeed, this magazine also witnessed Uekusa, her manager, and her shopping together, and her presence at what appeared to be a dinner meeting. However, it is clear from their behavior at the beginning of this article that they are not mere business partners.

Uekusa married a woman who was his junior in high school in 1994, and they have one son and one daughter. Their oldest son is Yuta Higuchi (27), now an actor and singer. However, they divorced in ’10, and his two children were taken in by his ex-wife. Uekusa then remarried in ’13 to an ordinary woman, and they had a daughter. Despite the fact that he has such a wife and a young daughter, he is still infatuated with Ms. A.

In late December of last year, Uekusa and Mr. A visited a love hotel in the suburbs of Chiba City, just the two of them. This hotel was also a relatively reasonable place, with rates starting at 3,000 yen for a short two-and-a-half-hour stay. Uekusa, perhaps not wanting to be seen, ran to her car as they were leaving the love hotel. Ms. A also got in the car, and the minivan Uekusa was driving drove off toward Tokyo.

Uekusa, who was one of Johnny’s biggest stars, drove himself to a love hotel in the suburbs of Tokyo. In late March, we interviewed Uekusa directly as he parked his car near Shibuya Station.

–I asked Uekusa, “Mr. Uekusa, are you in a relationship with this woman?

We are not dating.

When this reporter asked him this question while holding out a picture of Ms. A, he repeatedly said, “We are not dating.

–You have been to a love hotel, haven’t you?

No, I haven’t.”

–I have confirmed that you have been there more than once.

No, I have not gone!”

Uekusa says that Mr. A is “a business partner who is helping me with the delivery system and other things,” and claims that there is “no fact” that he went to a love hotel. However, the reality of the situation is as you have seen so far.

When interviewed by a women’s magazine in 2002, Uekusa was asked about her life as a remarried woman, to which she happily replied, “I hope we can create a warm family. I wonder if Uekusa remembers those words today.

No. 1 Identity and reputation of the “married man in his 40s” who had an affair with the former president of Snow Peak

The news of the resignation of a female president caused a stir.

On September 21, Risa Yamai, 34, the third president of Snow Peak Corporation, which manufactures and sells outdoor goods, announced her resignation. The reason for her resignation was her “relationship with a married man and pregnancy. The resignation of a president for ‘dating a married man’ is extremely unusual.

Risa became the third president in March 2020, attracting attention for her unusually young age (32 years old) and her style, which included posting pictures of herself squatting and smoking on the street on Instagram and not trying to hide the tattoo on her arm.

A new development in the case was reported in the electronic edition of the Weekly Bunshun on September 28 that the “married man” was Mr. A, a street fashion designer in his 40s.

Who is this Mr. A, whose relationship with Risa was discussed?

Mr. A graduated from a local public university specializing in design and launched his own brand in 2003. Mr. A himself is known in the industry as an up-and-coming designer. He designed the packaging for a product Snow Peak launched last year. It is believed that their relationship began there.

When I rang the intercom at Mr. A’s home, located in a quiet residential area of Tokyo, a woman answered the door.

–This is Friday. I would like to ask you about the relationship between Risa Yamai and Mr. A….

What is it about?”

-Is it your wife?

Yes, but (about what you asked) I don’t know what it’s about.”

With that, the intercom went dead.

We also visited Risa at her home in Tokyo, but she did not answer the intercom.

In the wake of the recent turmoil, the previous president, Futoshi Yamai, 62, was reappointed as president of Snow Peak. Futoshi had said that he would choose a successor in his 30s when he turned 60. Will he be able to find his next successor?
