Huwa-chan, Janpoke Saito, Akiko Wada… “After” the “Entertainers Under Fire” in 2024

Saito’s wife, who spoke up for her husband. ……

In the year 2024, a variety of scandals have erupted, and in this age of social networking, once a “flame” breaks out, gasoline tends to be pumped into the flames from every possible source, rather than being extinguished. No matter how prestigious the celebrity or how big the agency, there is no stopping the backlash of public opinion.

Many celebrities and entertainers have gone up in flames this year, and in some cases, they were handled incorrectly, while in others, they only suffered minor injuries. Here is a look back at such uproar: …….

Huwa-chan.

In August, comedian Yasuko (26),

“Yasuko Olympics. It’s great just to be alive, so everyone wins!

In response, Huwa-chan posted on X. In response, Huwa-chan responded

In response, Huwa-chan posted on X, “You are not great, so please die, you lost the qualifying round.

In response, Huwa-chan posted on X, “You’re not great, so please die! There is still no sign of his comeback.

The timing of the “24-Hour TV” (Nippon Television Network Corporation) made the word “dead” even worse. Not only was I dropped from the program, but my sponsors also left. While some celebrities have claimed to have been “hijacked” when they were mistakenly accused, Huwa-chan admitted to posting the message, claiming that it was not a backhanded attack. Even so, his usual attitude was also considered a problem, and the public’s reaction was cold.

Shinji Saito (42) of “Jungle Pocket” and his wife, Saori Seto (36)

On October 7, Saito’s contract with Yoshimoto Kogyo was terminated after he was charged with sexual misconduct with a woman he co-starred with. On the same day, his wife, Saori Seto, posted on Instagram

“As far as the facts are concerned, the other party has done something to me.

Saito’s wife, Saori Seto, suggested on her Instagram page that the action was not one-sided. The female victim said

The female victim protested, “Your comment is not true, as if I am at fault.

The victim woman protested, saying, “She said she was trying to protect her husband’s honor.

The woman’s comments were criticized as “a bad move,” even though she was trying to protect her husband’s honor. On the other hand, the fact that Yoshimoto Kogyo fired her while the case was pending and it was unclear what the prosecutors would make of it was also questionable. However, it is said that not only this case but also reports of large debts led them to give up on him early.

Akiko Wada (74)

In August, Wada appeared on “Akko ni Omakase! (TBS), on which Wada serves as MC, when he saw Haika Kitaguchi, 26, who won the gold medal in the women’s javelin throw at the Paris Olympics, lying on her back and eating sweets,

She looked like a Steller’s sea lion, lying there. It’s so cute!

and the incident caused a huge firestorm. On the 18th of the same month, she apologized at the beginning of the program.

It was extremely unusual for Ms. Wada to stand in front of the camera and sincerely apologize. Until then, her comments had tended to cause a firestorm, but in many cases she had either ignored them or apologized as a program, with the announcer reading her comments. However, there were rumors that the program was ending, so I think she bowed down and made her peace with the situation. I think this was a good response. This is one of the few cases where he succeeded in “putting out the fire.
