Don’t Feed the Idols…Drugs, Alcohol, Flammables and Yen

Update about fan presents (SaeYaka Paradise)

For those of you planning on sending the AKB48 girls a holiday gift this year, you can leave the pet rabbits, kinky lingerie, Naproxen and fireworks at home.  A few months back Heiwa and Ange posted everything you need to know about sending a gift or fan letter to your favorite AKB idol.  In this post they have updated the information with the new list of what AKB’s management will not allow as gifts for the idols.

For the most part this list is nothing but common sense.  I can’t believe that they have to tell people some of these things.  But alas, I’ll bet every one of these rules have been violated at one time or another.  Fans are sending money???  They aren’t hostesses for cryin’ out loud, they are idols!  Haven’t we all spent enough money on the endless Box Sets, photobooks and multi-version CDs already?  And I really don’t think they are interested in hearing your “cute” but eardrum shattering version of Namida Surprise!

Other than that, have at it!  I’m sure your favorite member would love to hear from you!  :)
