Today at Morning Musume ’17‘s concert in Kyoto, the graduation of tenth generation member Haruka Kudo was announced. Haruka revealed that she wanted to devote herself to becoming an actress, deciding to leave both Morning Musume and Hello!Project due to the concerns about balancing both Morning Musume and full-time acting activities. Upon turning 18 years old this year, she decided to make the bold decision of graduating completely rather than resigning.
The date of Haruka’s graduation has not been decided yet, but she will complete the remainder of Morning Musume’s current tour and current stage play she’s starring in (Engeki Joshibu). The tours finale will happen on June 23rd at Nippon Budokan.
Haruka Kudo is the first tenth generation member to graduate from Morning Musume. They were introduced to Hello!Project fans in September 2011, and made their official debut with the single “Pyocopyoco Ultra”

On April 27th, tarento Becky (33) attend a LINE Golden Week Campaign event in Tokyo. Becky was pleased to be able to partake in this new years gift and was happy to be connected to everyone. Just last year, Becky was involved in a scandal with Kawatani Enon (28) of Gesu Kiwami Otome which saw her uninstalling the LINE app after her messages with the married singer leaked to the public. However, Becky revealed that she reinstalled LINE at the end of last year. When speaking about the app, Becky said, “ I continue to use the app. I have about 10 embarrassing conversations.” She also said that family, classmates, and other entertainers she knows don’t really use the app, but there is no deep meaning there. Becky also said she would like to increase the number of people she speaks to on LINE which was welcomed by laughs.
