Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 45208, member: 636"] Two performers named Amu and Negi will join the Tokyo Idol Festival this August. The event takes place in Odaiba and marks the 16th year for this major celebration. Both singers plan to perform at outdoor shows and meet fans during special greeting sessions. They will also appear on talk programs that stream live online. Festival organizers consider this one of the biggest chances for underground performers to showcase their talents. Producer Kadosawa started the festival back in 2010 after working with the Japanese group Idoling. The event has grown into the largest idol celebration anywhere around the world. This year brings together 45 different musical acts for the massive gathering. Underground artists see this festival as their most important opportunity to reach new audiences. The scale and reputation of the event attracts performers from across Japan and beyond. The two singers originally worked as part of a group called Ihoteu under EFG Music. Their company operates as part of JDB Entertainment which also manages famous comedians like Kim Dae-hee and Kim Jun-ho. Another member named Mina faced suspension due to personal problems that created controversy. The group was supposed to break up after their contract ended with the agency. However Amu and Negi received backing from JDB Entertainment to continue their scheduled appearances. Recent troubles have shaken the entertainment company that supports them. The head of JDB Entertainment faced serious accusations about having an affair with a female group member. These allegations forced the executive to announce plans for stepping down from his leadership position. [/QUOTE]
