Who am I excited for?

Angela Aki, Ai Otsuka, Koda Kumi, Mika Nakashima, Ayumi Hamasaki (what dress will she come in this time?), Morning Musume, Leah Dizon (because she’s hot).

As for the men….I only know Ken Hirai and SMAP. Please let Kimura Takuya not look so girly this time. Please. Cut. Your. Hair. Thanks.
