Usually when people say “first!” it’s really an annoying thing. This time it ain’t so bad, especially for Morning Musume. Today they recieved an invitation to perform a concert in Shanghai in celebration of the Shanghai World Expo 2010. They are officially the first Japanese artists to take part in the promotion. The concert will take place on June 28, 2008. 

The outfits used in the press conference are like those from Mikan only less bedazzled and with more lace. On previous occasions, the costumes that they wore overseas were cute. I don’t know what happened here, but it’s a tragedy! Satoda Mai, use your fashion sense to help these girls out.

A ton of more pictures from the press conference are under the cut.
