Blind Trust: Famous Celebrity Fathers Entrusting Their Sons and Unaware of Johnny Kitagawa’s Dark Secrets

Then in 2003, he was chosen as one of the nine members to form NEWS. Two months later, he made his CD debut with the single NEWS Nippon, which included the image song for the Volleyball World Cup 2003, but fans were cold toward him.

 

“Johnny’s fans spend a lot of money and passion to make CD debuts for the members they have supported since their Jr. days,” said one fan. He was blatantly rejecting MORIUCHI, who was able to skip a grade by simply being the son of MORI Shinichi and debut immediately.

At events and concerts, he would intentionally not react when he introduced himself. Some fans were saying ‘scene’ with their mouths. It was a variant of booing.

He may not have been bothered by the fact that he was away from home for so long, but three months later he suspended his activities to concentrate on his studies, and soon after voluntarily withdrew from the group. It is said that underage smoking and female scandals in gossip magazines may have been the reason for his departure.

 

However, Hiroki Moriuchi, the third son of the Mori family, and Hiro of “MY FIRST STORY,” were also members of Johnny’s office when they were in elementary school. As you know, both the eldest and third sons are very successful vocalists in rock bands, and no fans may be aware of their involvement with Johnny’s at this time.

The same goes for Ryuta Mine’s eldest son, Kei Shimojima. Like Masaki Meguro, he, too, was admitted to the school by his parents, who wanted him to learn good manners. Until a few years ago, he said that he was still a member of Johnny’s, but now he has left the group and is married.

Shimojima worked as a reporter for a Chunichi Dragons-related program at a local station while still a member of Johnny’s. He was a Dragons fanatic. He was a reporter for a TV program related to the Chunichi Dragons for a local station while belonging to Johnny’s. He must have gotten this job through his father’s connections, who is famous for being an ardent fan of the Dragons, and not through Johnny’s sales. Because he is the son of a celebrity, his contract was probably different from other Jr.

When Yuta Uekusa (now Yuta Higuchi), the eldest son of Katsuhide Uekusa of Shonen-tai fame, who has recently been frequently sending his support to Higashiyama, became a Johnny’s Jr. member, both the agency and fans were very excited, but he left the group after his parents’ divorce.

In 2011, he won the Photogenic Award at the 24th Junon Super Boy Contest as Yuta Higuchi, which was decided by the number of votes from fans. Since then, he has been steadily continuing his entertainment activities.
