Happy Birthday Meetan-hime!
I got all caught up in the Natsuyaki Miyabi birthday festivites, that I totally overlooked August 25th is also the birthday of one of my favorite idols, Ohori Megumi
Ever since I got into AKB48, I have been drawn to three girls in the group...
Ohe Tomomi from Team A. I love Oh-yay because she is so damn funny! Nakanishi Rina, also from Team A. Rinatin is just naturally beautiful. And Ohori Megumi from Team K. I would never have guessed that Megumi was (far and away) the oldest member of AKB48. But that is one of the things I like about her. I have always found her to be irresistably cute. But those shower and bedroom bits she did at the beginning of Oji59fun a couple months back shot her right up to the top of my idol chart. She is definitely the idol I would most want to have a sexual tryst with. Since she just turned 25, I don't have to feel guilty about wanting to go to bed with her either! And every time I hear about her being referred to as "perverted" or "kinky", I just love her even more!!!
I was watching this weeks' episode of AKB48's Oji59fun this morning. They were doing some sort of bio on Megumi. At the time I didn't really understand what was being said, so I figured she was graduating since a bunch of other members were crying through it. But I got the scoop from Cat's Aitakatta! blog...
The "bit" was supposed to be about Megumi's struggle to become an idol amidst a bunch of much younger girls. It dramatized her coming from humble upbringings, working in menial jobs, and struggling for popularity among the other girls. Then there was a moment with Akimoto Yasushi where she was issued the following challenge. Megumi is going to release a solo single under the pseudonym Meshibe Ohori, and the single must top 10,000 sales or she will be forced out of AKB48. Now my first thought is this sounds exactly like the Tsunku/Morning Musume/Ai no Tane challenge. I have to believe with this kind of promotion she will have little trouble topping the 10K sales mark. But I am still going to buy the CD the moment it comes out. And if they have multiple versions, I'll buy them too. Anything to keep Meetan in the group. I think she is the hottest AKB member of all! Oh, and will there be a "Single V"? (hope hope!)
So a big Happy Birthday! to my favorite "sexy" J-pop idol. Here is some eyecandy directly from Megumi's Blog to celebrate!
DAMN
SHE
IS
SO
FREAKIN'
HAWT!!!
I am going to make it a point to do my part to help Megumi realize her dreams.

What a feature on Megumi! I would also argue that her entire Himawari-Gumi 2nd stage unit is a sizzler, with easily a half-dozen of those performers among the most electrifying in all idol-dom. You've now made me chase back into the lethal DVD (Kayano's last major perf for that unit), but it's worth the pain to better see what Megumi's contrbution has been, and as it turns out, it is huge.
Too bad accessibility to AKB48 is a lot harder than that of the H!P units. The DV releases are delayed months after the actual perfs, and it is sometimes cloudy who's still with the group and who has graduated. Hopefuly at least one of the AKB48 units, maybe even the new Nagoya group, will be booked somewhere accessible in late January. If you hear anything, give me a heads-up, please!
Anyway, thanks for this illuminating essay!
