UPDATE
Sanspo< Arashi 4 crown’s medley takes Kohaku by storm!!.> Songs of participants for ”60th NHK Kohaku song festival “ on new-year’s eve were announced on 20. 50 songs in line with the year’s theme “Strength of song∞infinity” are determinate. Arashi shows medley review their history and exerts presence of people of year. Arashi who is plying their way to a victory that accomplished 4 crowns at Oricon yearly ranking at memorial year takes big stage by storm. According Inoue Chief Producer. It’s medley include from their debut song to this year released “Believe”. He is still works out details of content. Arashi got 4 crowns at Oricon ranking of single, album, music DVD and total stales. And they dominated top 3 single sales. And they show their overwhelming popularity so they must warm up with hit songs. These years 2 groups of Johnny’s talent used to participate Kohaku, this year increased double to 4 groups. Can they get high audience rate with Johnny’s talent who are popular irrespective of age and sex. Hochi, <”Matsuri” Saburo Kitajima certain for big final… songs for Kohaku announced.> song for Kohaku announced Arashi sings medley of their debut song to latest song. NYC boys songs representative songs of Showa era. Chunichi Sports, <First participant Arashi for special medley, Kohaku songs announced> songs of 50 participant groups of “60th NHK Kohaku song festival” announced. Inoue chief producer explained “It’s included hit songs of this year and songs beyond generations. We think about connection of people. 10th anniversary and first participant Arashi sings medley include their debut song A.ra.shi and this year’s hit tune, Belive and others. Nikkann Sports, <Arashi 4 minutes medley, first Kohaku unconventional length.> songs for Kohaku announced. Arashi sing hit song medley, 4 minute length that is unconventional for first participant was turn out by Kohaku related person. First participant group Arashi will be on the stage for unconventional 4 min. length as first participant of Kohaku was informally decided. Tsuyoshi Nagabuchi sang 3 tunes for 17 min. in 1990 and other participant was eliminated. But usually time given to first participants is 1’40 to 2 minute. Even veteran singers are 3 minutes. NHK gives 4 minute for Arashi who is newcomer of white team it seems that it’s because NHK consider Arashi as national group and they treat them as highlight of the Kohaku after reviewing. Inoue producer says “This year Arashi turned 10th anniversary. So include from their debut song A.ra.shi and this year song Believe” they select from wide selection. Arashi is hit tune sold over 950K. And Believe is this year’s Oricon no.1 song. According to related people added to 2 songs to this 2 song, totally it will be 4 songs. Currently they select rest 2 songs. Particularly all of entertainment news talk about Kohaku topics this morning Arashi Oricon victory too.
Ameba News, <Tokujyo Kabachi starring Sakurai hunch of storm> TV drama “Tokujyo Kabachi” starts on TBS from 17 January. As leading role is Sho Sakurai of Arashi, on the blog. “Seems Sakurai-san dashing character. It must fit his image! “ “Seeing Sakurai-kun on the show amps up.” “ I heard love scene with Maki Horikita, I’m looking forward to it but mixed feelings” it come to controversial since a month before the show. The drama about leading role who aims for administrative scrivener and female man-hater administrative scrivener repel each other but develop each other. Seems they included  easily understandable introduction of law word using telop and law quiz. What is unique is “ live telephone from the cast”, in the segment of the show audience and cast talk in live. And many fans anticipate theme song by Arashi “I heard on CM the voice seems Arashi…Am I hasty? (grin)” “ This is rumor, Nino announced on his radio show.” “ I can’t think non Arashi sings it!” seems they raise expectations for the drama. As it is not announced so far officially so that may or may not be true. Many fans are wired in 5 of Arashi’s activities. “Jun Matsumoto show at Fuji TV 50th drama “ The history of our family.” “ I saw the article Ninomiya-kun stars movie Ohoku next autumn.” “New tune “Sora Takaku “ determinate for theme song of “The last promise” there are so many comments. Drama on air 9 January and spring drama, autumn cinema are determinate. Seems next year too their momentum can’t stop. The origin of their name is “to make storm in the entertainment industry.” I wonder how huge the storm that is already sweeping going to be…
Orista seeks question to Aiba-chan due date is 12:00 23 Dec.
Yesterday’s Marco porori (aired only Osaka area) P-ko san talks about Nino.P-ko san became fan as he saw Nino on TV. So P-ko-san approached and got an introduction to Nino. Then they got friends after. One day he met Nino on TV company. As Nino says “today it’s my BD.” So “ Well I have to do something. What do you want? Tell me without hesitating.” Nino” I want sunglasses” and he handed his name card. Told him to “go the shop he knows with this name card and buy anything you want.” And few hours later Nino went that shop and he mail to Piko-san with photo of him in sunglasses. P-ko-san told about Nino “ He is really honest and a good boy.” And Koji Tono said “honestly Arashi are all good boys. Well P-ko-san “ right, Sho-kun if good boy too.”
Fuji TV, promotion blog, “Lep-league final game, King of common knowledge of entertainment industry.” On air 2 January, 5 of Arashi participate as Arashi team. Kiyotaka Nannbara, Tetsuro Degawa join to Neptune team. And Quiz Master team leading by Rie Shibata, Hiryoyuki Ariyoshi, Junji Takada, Hiroko Nishikawa, Ryo Fukawa participate the game. Three-way hard-hitting fought. Sakurai-san and Ninomiya-san who have participated once “ we have got on tram once.” Said relaxed but…!? By contrast but Satoshi Ohno-san, Jun Matsumoto-san, Masaki Aiba-san who participate for the first time seems nervous. Ohno-san.”However I watched on TV at home I don’t understand it.” Other member anxious about him. 3 teams participate common knowledge quiz, you naturally know. Which team will win? You can’t miss it.
Please look forward to it.

The coffee I had this afternoon is keeping me up, so here's another translation from the Jan. 2010 Popolo. :) (apologies if this is like a double-post...)

This spread is actually quite hilarious and there's a lot of personal info from Arashi. They asked the five members on...

- What would you say if your girlfriend looked at another guy and went "how cool~~~~"?
- Recent information
- What do you wear to sleep?

Read on~! )

From Popolo Jan. 2010 (eep). There was a large section on Arashi (surprise), and one part had them rank each other on who would be most popular with different types of girls. I don't usually translate things, and my Japanese is rather questionable... but I think the general gist of things should be correct.

Enjoy~~~ )
