2012.05 Potato: Kamenashi Kazuya's Going My Way #15


We give total coverage of the live recording at the studio on 18. March! On that day it has been decided that Kamenashi Kazuya will act as the MC instead of Ueda Shinya-san. The preparatory meeting starts with the staffs' greeting "Today, Kamenashi-san, the MC, please!". Even though Kamenashi-san also showed the staff a mood maker-like expression, butting in [1] and getting laughs, he also rehearsed the very first greeting part [in the show], his careful preparation got the approval of Egawa Suguru-san. As expected the show also progressed at it's usual pace, but what are the innermost thoughts...!?

Keep talking in the show!
There are moments when the mind becomes blank...!?

When the show is finished, I got told by the staff "It was like usual". But I was thinking "Really!?", as a matter of fact I was nervous. I pretended very hard to be calm (*laughs*). Just saying the first 3, 4 words, my throat stopped working. Even now my voice is hoarse. Somehow I had the feeling that my own voice is becoming lower and when I asked, "Isn't my voice becoming lower?" everyone also confirmed it. In the show there is also a Kamenashi project, and I talked the whole time except during Egawa-san's corner. Also for the wipe (the small window on screen that shows the faces), because we are only two people our faces are shown a lot.
This is the 4th time I am doing the MC instead of Ueda-san, right? But I am still not used to it. If I compare it to my nervousness of when I did it the very fist time, it hasn't become better, there are moments when my mind becomes blank. But I have to do both, go on and tell my impressions. I am in the same room, but when my role is different, I feel somehow totally different. There is a feeling of tension like "I have to lead, I have to do it properly/perfectly!".
At the end too, when the sign that there are 5 seconds left appeared, I thought I am going to end it, but there were about 2 seconds too much. I can say, "Well then, until next week! Sayonara!" in 3 seconds (*laughs*). The guest was Starman (the Yokohama DeNA BayStars' new mascot) who can't talk, so the waving 15 seconds before was too early... He doesn't show his face, but I really worry about minor details.
In the Kamenashi project on air today, I was allowed to do one day of public relations for coach Nakahata Kiyoshi. Because I am usually at the players' side, and this was a position at the edge where I take responsibility [?], I understood the state of mind of both and it was difficult. Btw. when speaking my voice suddenly shook. Moreover I also participated in the practice for about 40 minutes (*laughs*). "Kame-chan, just do a little warming up!". Everyone, I was grateful you welcomed me, but because it had nothing to do with the work of public relations that is on air today, it was all cut (*laughs*).

[1] butting in like a tsukkomi (tsukkomi = in comedy the straight man).

After the end of the broadcast...
"Bye-bye"

Spirit is Going!'s new theme song!

"Two years in succession, a KAT-TUN song was chosen as the theme song of the show, I am really happy. This time, the song is also played at the Major League opening game. Because it's a really positive song, I think people can become more cheerful." (The same song is also the image song of NTV's pro-baseball relay 'Dramatic Game 1844')

translation, baseball, going my way, kame
