Long-time Hello!Project member Ayaka is graduating on April 30. This isn’t that surprising. I mean, the last time I heard her voice on a CD was the “hey DJ” part of Egao YES Nude.

What is more surprising is that in the official press release it states that Ayaka will be graduating from both Coconuts Musume and Hello!Project. Did they really need to put in that part about Coconuts Musume? Coconuts Musume has been dead for almost 4 years now. Yeah, I know she’s still credited as Ayaka (Coconuts Musume), but come on!

In an official statement, Ayaka has expressed that she would like to continue on in show business as an actress.

I’m definitely sad to see her go. I guess there really isn’t much point in watching the Elder Club concert anymore. I really only watched it for Biyuuden, Ayaka and Nacchi. Now that 2 of the 3 are gone, and that Nacchi gets her own concerts, I can pretty much pass on downloading those monster-sized files. I’m not too broken up about it, considering I’m more of a Wonderful Hearts man myself. Uh, now I’m starting to sound like those people I hate on forums. Look what you made me do, Ayaka!

Bye Ayaka! Best of luck on becoming an actress.

Above is the cover from Niigaki Risa’s fourth solo photobook, Happy Girl. For some reason she just looks dirty in the picture. I mean dirt as in filth. My brain tells me it’s not so, but my eyes tell me yes. It must be the combination of messy hair and the lighting. It just has to be! That, or UFA’s infamous photoshop “skills.”

The photobook comes out this Friday, April 25. Perhaps they can put the profit earned towards getting a better photoshopper. Just kidding! You know UFA hates spending money on anything that can remotely please the fans.

Ishikawa Rika showed off the goods at an event on Saturday for Fanta Furu Furu Shakers. Just look at that stink-face she’s giving the camera! From the look of things, she loves shaking what her mama gave her! I guess you can take the girl out of Biyuuden, but you can’t take the Biyuuden out of the girl.

Below are photos of Rika at the Fanta Furu Furu Shakers event. Some other dudes from SpeedWagon and MasudaOkada were there too, but they’re not important. More photos after the jump.
