Nakai Masahiro’s $580,000 Settlement Sparks Tension in Advertising Industry

Former SMAP member Nakai Masahiro’s $580,000 settlement for a past woman-related issue is causing ripples in the industry.

1Hikari★.Dec. 22, 2024 (Sun) 05:56:33.56ID:/QtB1rSS9
There is a lot of commotion surrounding former SMAP member Nakai Masahiro. Josei Seven, released on the 19th, ran a major report entitled “Serious troubles that helped a woman overcome Nakai Masahiro’s huge settlement payment” under the headline “Exclusive scoop.” According to the article, last year, a dispute developed between Nakai and a woman at a drinking party organized by Fuji TV executive A. Nakai then paid 90 million yen to the woman through his attorney as a “settlement payment.” The key person, Mr. A, is in charge of the program “Dareka to Nakai,” which is scheduled to end its broadcast in March of next year, which has given rise to various speculations. In response to these reports, Nakai’s lawyer told Seven, “Please understand that this matter has previously been resolved through discussion between the two parties.” No matter how rich Nakai is, the settlement amount of 90 million yen is quite considerable. It may indicate the seriousness of the problem. On the other hand, with a matter that had already been resolved being made public, some within Fuji TV are asking, “Why…?” A station official expressed confusion, saying, “We are bound by confidentiality, so when we receive inquiries all we can say is, ‘It’s a resolved matter, so we can’t answer.'” It seems that other stations also had heard that Nakai’s trouble had been “resolved.” However, the situation is different from the perspective of a client who places advertisements on television stations. Nakai has most recently appeared in commercials for SoftBank and Timee. Even if the matter has been resolved, if the “nature” of the problem is not understood to some extent, it could result in negative promotion. “The advertising industry is on edge. “If further news emerges, will they be able to push through with the issue as ‘resolved’?” (agency source)
Last year, there was a Bunshun report on Downtown’s Matsumoto Hitoshi at the end of the year, but this year, attention is focused on his “ally” Nakai. Tokyo Sports web.

I wish they’d stop putting people who cause sexual problems on TV.

Even if the two people involved managed to resolve it between themselves, the people around them probably wouldn’t forgive them.

It seems like a lot of people know about it this way, especially at Fuji TV.

The lives of ordinary people depended on reparations.

I’ve heard there were problems with that brute force solution though.
10Anonymous @I’m sorry.Dec. 22, 2024 (Sun) 06:01:01.88ID:7ZwqeTUJ0
The fact is that the act occurred and it has become public, so of course it’s caused a fuss. Even if they say it’s been resolved, there’s no way it will calm down.
11Anonymous @I’m sorry.Dec. 22, 2024 (Sun) 06:01:21.10ID:i9ckMpFz0
What do you mean “solved”? A sex offender was arrested, convicted and imprisoned?
13Anonymous @I’m sorry.Dec. 22, 2024 (Sun) 06:01:55.63ID:Z+GuLCVH0
Ironically, this proves that Matsumoto, who didn’t pay the money, was innocent.
14Anonymous @I’m sorry.Dec. 22, 2024 (Sun) 06:02:03.58ID:dJuTOrWp0
Takizawa Hideaki pretends not to know about sexual assault, “irresponsible”; growing calls for accountability When Johnny passed away, Takizawa was sitting in the passenger seat of the hearse, holding a portrait of Johnny to his chest. It is not surprising that Takizawa, who was his “son,” knew about the sexual assault. It is only natural that Takizawa will be held accountable.”
The crimes of his “father” should not be swept under the rug. Will he fulfill his duties as a son?
15Anonymous @I’m sorry.Dec. 22, 2024 (Sun) 06:04:05.64ID:tE+FY8790
A controversial approach
It’s not like you can just pay the money and it will go away
that’s the case.
17Anonymous @I’m sorry.Dec. 22, 2024 (Sun) 06:05:19.03ID:DlJVP6j60
90 million yen is an amount that you wouldn’t pay unless it was something really special.

It must have been something really special.

Yeah, that’s obvious.

Putting the details of the settlement aside, looking at the article, it seems that Fuji TV is still using female announcers for one-on-one sales entertainment. The old media is exercising its freedom not to report, so I hope the BBC will do their best to expose the dark side of Japanese TV stations. Wouldn’t it be better to blow up all the devices that brainwash the public?
21Anonymous @I’m sorry.Dec. 22, 2024 (Sun) 06:07:09.34ID:Y3XZ5nEM0
It may have been a resolution between the two parties involved, but for the viewing public it was a case swept into the dark and they would continue to see Nakai on terrestrial TV.
22Anonymous @I’m sorry.Dec. 22, 2024 (Sun) 06:07:54.03ID:mU3ISQ960
Matsumoto is also an old story.
23Anonymous @I’m sorry.Dec. 22, 2024 (Sun) 06:08:06.44ID:pyTKlPL00
It’s probably a trauma for Johnny’s, but Nakai probably got drunk and messed up a woman.
24Anonymous @I’m sorry.Dec. 22, 2024 (Sun) 06:08:10.59ID:YywQWPZf0
If it’s already been resolved then there’s no need to dig too deep. The best thing to do is leave both parties alone so no one gets hurt. I guess sleazy weekly magazines don’t read the situation.
25Anonymous @I’m sorry.Dec. 22, 2024 (Sun) 06:08:51.39ID:DwfTJrwi0
I read an article the other day about someone not going there anymore because the parking fee of a few hundred yen was more expensive than the parking fees nearby…but I guess 90 million yen is no problem.
26Anonymous @I’m sorry.Dec. 22, 2024 (Sun) 06:09:16.96ID:Be5D632/0
He seems worse than Kagawa, so he should at least be banned from TV.
27Anonymous @I’m sorry.Dec. 22, 2024 (Sun) 06:09:34.03ID:oGaroDvr0
The talk about parking fees seems small.
28Anonymous @I’m sorry.Dec. 22, 2024 (Sun) 06:09:42.63ID:Eb3nnlx50
I think the woman who received the money just couldn’t accept it and leaked it.

Fuji TV pioneered the sexual entertainment of female announcers, which is now being carried out by TV stations all over Japan. This is not an issue in Japan. Feminists won’t stand up unless it leads to bashing the LDP. Well, since it’s Fuji Sankei, maybe the Tokyo Shimbun will report on it.
31Anonymous @I’m sorry.Dec. 22, 2024 (Sun) 06:11:25.89ID:rcScrypZ0
If you just brush it off with “It’s been resolved so quickly, what a cruel mistake you made” it will just cause trouble later on.
32Anonymous @I’m sorry.Dec. 22, 2024 (Sun) 06:11:40.45ID:OFqduSS20
Matsumoto is amazing for not paying a single penny.

The legal fees must have been quite high
In the end, the media can say whatever they want
So they just have to ignore it
Also, there was hardly any trouble at the time
So Matsumoto-san is fine with it.

If it were the same kind of content as Matsumoto Hitoshi, it would spread to the sponsors. And even before it becomes a problem of image, there’s a possibility that rumors will come out that the sponsors were also engaged in sex as payment. If they don’t clearly show their intention to prohibit anything related to sex as payment, the whole entertainment and TV industry will collapse.
35Anonymous @I’m sorry.Dec. 22, 2024 (Sun) 06:13:04.06ID:0BbOIzqn0
If it were to come out into the open, what would that amount to 90 million yen be for?
36Anonymous @I’m sorry.Dec. 22, 2024 (Sun) 06:13:08.81ID:MGH6LJ4z0
Don’t blame Nakai. He’s not a bad person. He just has a monkey’s brain. All men are like that.
37Anonymous @I’m sorry.Dec. 22, 2024 (Sun) 06:14:16.15ID:YWlZNaBZ0
The source of the 90 million is unclear.

It could be that someone with a strange sense of justice wants to spread the word about Nakai, or that if there is someone who has received that much money from him, they want to make some money themselves, or they simply have a grudge against Nakai or dislike him.
40Anonymous @I’m sorry.Dec. 22, 2024 (Sun) 06:14:59.11ID:O//tT8IW0
Takizawa-kun is so handsome that even men fall in love with him, there’s no way Johnny-san would miss him. Nakai-kun is fine even if he misses him. But now he’s rich, and women don’t let him get away with it.
41Anonymous @I’m sorry.Dec. 22, 2024 (Sun) 06:15:35.09ID:M8K1VwWc0
It’s not a problem because TV doesn’t cover it. The power of the internet still remains.
44Anonymous @I’m sorry.Dec. 22, 2024 (Sun) 06:16:24.11ID:Y3XZ5nEM0
Is it true that sexual entertainment of female announcers is commonplace and this incident just caused a stir? If we continue to look the other way, will peace prevail?
45Anonymous @I’m sorry.Dec. 22, 2024 (Sun) 06:16:54.05ID:T0JI0i6L0
If other TV stations knew about it too, it wouldn’t be surprising if it leaked out at any time, from anywhere.

This is a pretty good article.
It’s a well-known story in the TV industry, and they can answer any questions they get.
They say they kept it hidden from sponsors and viewers.
53Anonymous @I’m sorry.Dec. 22, 2024 (Sun) 06:19:20.80ID:zOeE/pmR0
Didn’t you consult with Matsumoto?

What kind of problem is going to cost $90 million to solve?
