Sakurai Sho Goes See Momoiro Clover-z Concert

*this is from a few days ago, but I thought it was cute so I decided to translate it anyway*

in a recent magazine interview (The Television COLORS vol. 7 Black), Arashi’s Sakurai Sho revealed that he had attended idol group Momoiro Clover-z’s concert held at the (controversial) National Olympic Stadium in March 2014. Thinking back on the concert, he commented, “I was touched. (laughs)”.

Previously, MomoClo have guested on several of Arashi’s variety shows, and Arash members have always been known to be kind to the group as senpai in the idol world. On one hand, MomoClo members have also been known to enjoy Arashi’s concert DVDs and such, and during concerts MomoClo’s leader Momota Kanako has even done impersonations of Arashi members. To MomoClo, Arashi is not only their senpai, but also “a group of reliable oniisans”. 

However, it is extremely rare for Johnny’s talents to reveal that they have attended concerts of other female idol groups. This shows not only how much Arashi likes MomoClo, but also how they also respect them as fellow artists.
