Yasuko’s popularity and sainthood are “painful, and I haven’t been going out much lately,” says Toro Kamaru, Chidori and others worried. On the 11th, comedian Yasuko appeared on Fuji TV’s “Sake no Tsuma Mi Ni Naru Hanashi.” He revealed that he feels suffocated by his high popularity and that it is bothering him. The controversy that led to Fuwachan apologizing for an inappropriate post in August. Yasuko said, “After all, with all the different backgrounds being revealed, like the marathon, he’s been made into a saint too much. The image of “Yasuko being a good girl” was too strong. I’ve been feeling a bit stressed lately, wondering if I have to continue being a good person in my private life as well. I haven’t been going out much lately. I think being well-liked is a great thing, but it ends up hurting yourself. “I wonder what I should do in the future, to spread my wings,” he said, revealing his troubled feelings. He added, “I never turn down a photo or an autograph (if asked). If I refused, they’d say things like, “Yasuko, maybe you’re just a good person on TV?” and it was tiring. I’m very careful about social media. I get about 500 comments a day and I like them all. Now that I’ve started, I have to keep going… Sometimes I get comments like, ’Yasuko, since you became popular, I stopped liking your posts,’ and I think that’s what they really think… He also thought up great sentences to post,” he revealed, drawing concern from his co-stars including Hanamaru and Chidori. The program was recorded on October 1st.
>>1 That’s the price of being popular for “likability” rather than “fun”. If you don’t like it, just disappear for a while and then go disguise yourself like Ariyoshi.
>>33 Rather than being a saint, he responds sincerely to sincerity and kindness, ignores ill will relatively well, and enjoys working seriously on what he likes and wants to do. Also, Hikakin is aware that he doesn’t have any special abilities, and doesn’t forget to appeal to the average person. I don’t know about Yasuko though.
He’s a useless talent (a comedian who plays the role of a self-defense officer?) who never really had anything particularly funny to say. He just happened to click and became popular, but no one knows why. That’s not something that only happens to this person.
Higashide said some nice things, but they’re not reporting it in the news. Is it inconvenient for them because it was revealed that he was living with the Higashide Girls, a lie made up by the media?
If a male comedian reached this level of status, he would be fawned over by women and become popular, but it seems like there wouldn’t be any such merit for a female comedian. In fact, he would probably be secretly envied by his peers.
