Romantic Entanglements Aside: Mitsuho Fukudome’s Strengths as a Rising Variety Talent

It was announced that Mitsuho Fukudome (20), formerly of AKB48, will be the Wednesday navigator for J-WAVE’s new program “GURU GURU!

Former AKB48 had little or no name recognition among the general public. However, in March of this year, when she appeared on “Nobuyuki Sakuma’s NOBROCK TV,” the YouTube channel of Nobuyuki Sakuma, 48, a shrewd producer formerly with TV Tokyo, she became a breakout hit for her strong sense of humor. He got his big break when he appeared on the YouTube channel “Nobuyuki Sakuma’s NOBROCK TV,” which is considered a gateway to success for new talents! (Nippon Television), which is considered a gateway to success for new talents! Hit Award! (a director of a production company).

(Director of a production company). The broadcaster believes that the fact that she is “heavily into” Mr. Sakuma is “boosting her popularity.

The staff at the stations believe that since Sakuma P, who has a great deal of influence in the variety industry, is pushing her so hard, Fukudome is sure to be a hit. If we use her, the show will be exciting and we are sure to get good numbers. In fact, on “Sanma Goten,” she was able to turn her venom at Yuki Kashiwagi (33), a senior member of the AKB group, into a laugh. Despite her soft and soothing appearance, she is able to talk about self-deprecation and self-deprecation with a touch of venom, which is her charm.

Although she is only 20 years old, her knowledge of boat racing, which she began under the influence of her grandfather and father, is at the level of an expert. This is also one of her strengths.

The Birth of Reiwa’s Top Ballad Girl?

When Fukudome appears in a boat racing video, the number of views increases dramatically. The number of fans who visit the racecourse has also increased dramatically due to her influence. She has already become a treasure of the industry. The Boat Racing Promotion Association quickly surrounded her, and it is no longer possible to offer her work related to boat racing without going through the association.

According to a producer at a key station, Fukudome’s appearance “has jeopardized the position of idols whose main battleground is variety shows.

Former NMB48 member Nagisaki Shibuya (28) is from the same Kansai region, so she is easily compared. Although their popularity during their idol days cannot be compared, Fukudome’s strength is that she has almost no fans from her idol days. Because he has few things to protect, he can talk about the bottom line at such a young age, and he can also talk about the thick of the boat race. There are no idols who share his artistic style. I think he will dominate variety shows in the future. He has stated publicly that he doesn’t think he is good at comedy, so there seems to be no danger of him being misunderstood. The fact that many of Reiwa’s big-name TV MCs, such as Daigo (44) of Chidori and Shinobu Sakagami (57), are boat racing enthusiasts will also be a plus.

A reporter for a sports newspaper overheard a concern: “It’s probably a love affair.

There are not a few cases where players or people involved with them get into trouble with female celebrities who accept jobs in public gambling. Not long ago, a person involved in bicycle racing in the Kansai region had an affair with a female newscaster and was transferred to the left. Fukudome is now in the custody of the promotion committee, probably to keep an eye on her to make sure she doesn’t get any bad bugs.

Will Reiwa’s top flower girl be born?
