As for the last picture in STICK NEWS - that is "Akko" (Wada Akiko). She said "shimeru", which means "I'll punish her". She was kind of joking.

You spelled her name wrong, it's "Erika" not "Erica" -_-;;;

Geez, if people don't know anything about Erika, they shouldn't be so ignorant and make such a miserable, poor excuses of a show

Total waste of time...

[thedailyenglishshow]

Thank you, SmilingAngel93, for so kindly pointing out the mistake - I've changed the title. BTW, *excuse*.

[d23t]

you can't say that if they are really are one you still have to show them respect. Singers, Models, Actors and Actress are all human . They fall, they have feeling, just like we do so please show some respect even you don't like her as much

[stariella]

i highly doubt she did it so she could increase her popularity. she ALWAYS has had a personality problem. there'd been loads of news bout her and her personality. this act at the premiere is just one of them. i don't blame her though. it's just the way she is. i just felt it was unprofessional for her not being to control her behavior.

[aandresz]

what happened to the Erika that was in 1 litre of tears :( LOLS

[Ladydreamer031084]

still love sawajiri erika!!!

[kierajay]

Of course she was famous before this incident. Have u ever watched "1 Litre of tears"? Im cryin just thinkin about that series. That is probably wat launched her to stardom

[blingglinggirl]

[halodalong]

[designerkitten]

[kniyteryder]
