タイトル: 秋元康と 日本のアイドル・コンセプト

秋元康(32才)がおニャン子クラブの高井麻巳子(21才)と結婚したのは、ヲタの夢を実現したものであった。
アイドルとして将来のあった高井麻巳子の結婚に、ファンは憤慨した。このネガティブなイメージが、肯定的に変わったのは、斉藤由貴が、高井麻巳子が幸せな結婚生活を送っていると、エッセイに書いてからである。
秋元康が作詞家として成功したのは、アイドルによって、業界に食い込んだからである。
1985年に小泉今日子が歌った「なってったってアイドル」は、アイドルの不文律を詞にしている。「スキャンダルはノーサンキュー、清く、正しく、美しく」と。
おニャン子クラブ以外のアイドルでは、菊地桃子、少女隊、チェキッ娘 に作詞を提供している。

アイドルというフォーマットを輸出し、世界の都市に、フランチャイズを与える「世界48」構想。 このフォーマットは、
オーディションでメンバーを選ぶこと
3チーム 48人のメンバーを訓練すること
からなる。アメリカンアイドル、ビッグブラザーなどのフォーマットと差別化を図る。

アイドルは、アーティストでもモデルでもない。
アイドルとは、林檎を鑑賞するけど食べない、何故なら誰も食べることができない 存在である。
アイドルは、ボーイフレンドがいない、スキャンダルはない、間違いをおこさない。
アイドルは、清く、正しく、美しく

秋元康は、各国の文化に合わせて、オーディションでアイドルを選ぶのであろうか。

解説: 後半のアイドル論は、HP筆者の論であり、秋元康の発言ではない。

このHPに寄せられたコメント: (2010年1月31日) 報道によると、既に、6カ国の7社が、フォーマットを購入した。 中国、タイ、シンガポール、イタリア。 秋元康によると、
「西洋文化を導入してコピーするのを辞める時代になった。その代わり、日本文化を広める。」

TITLE: Yasushi Akimoto and the concept Japanese idol

Without doubt one of the most important creator of the movement's idol in Japan Yasushi Akimoto (1956), TV screenwriter, lyricist, writer, filmmaker, professor in the School of Arts, University of Kyoto, and more currently known as producer of the hit idol group "AKB48".
In 1988, at 32 years old, having been lyricist of the legendary idol group "Onyanko Club, Akimoto the dream of any Wota of the time he married one of the most popular and charismatic idol group members Onyanko Club Mamiko Takai 21.
Once the group disintegrated Onyanko Club in September 1987, just 8 months after the wedding would be announced by Yasushi Akimoto Mamiko Takai, an event that marked the final withdrawal of Mamiko middle of the show. Since then, Mamiko has not had media presentations, but a small coverage in the program Meregue no Kimochi and some pages as ewoman and Chateau Mercian.
Following the controversial wedding, Akimoto received harsh criticism from some media and fans Onyanko Club, who expressed strong resentment towards him by marrying the idol which he himself drove, it still had a great career ahead. However, such a negative image toward Akimoto softened once the idol also Yuki Saito, Mamiko Takai friend later published an essay in which positively located the couple in a relationship of great happiness.
But Akimoto has much to presume that having a wife to a famous idol.
Having been formed by writing scripts for TV and writing lyrics for artists, its proximity to the environment and the agencies idol was the growth medium that allowed him to soak up all knowledge of the industry.
Knowing very closely the unwritten rules of the medium idol in 1985 writing the letter of "Nantetatte idol" (Kyoko Koizumi), one of the songs that explicitly sets out the ups and downs, scandals and rules that dominate the scene idol.
using a mini-skirt .... I must get away from the scandals ... keep an image "Kiyoku, tadashiku, utsukushiku" ... ... my manager insists that I be "kiyoku, tadashiku, utsukushiku"! ....
Perhaps the peak of his success as a songwriter came when in 1988 was commissioned to write a song for Hibari Misora, "Kawa no nagare no youni" (As the river flows) issue released just a few months before her death famous singer, the most important in the history of Japan. The song deep in a high voice as Hibari Misora institution on the eve of his death in June 1989, sales hit a phenomenon unprecedented in achieving the record 150 million copies sold, This coupled with the promotion that NHK did the song to consider it as "the best Japanese song of all time."
The depth of the topic, despite being new Japanese identity reflected not only within Japan but to the world, considered one of the favorite songs of Japanese and moving deeper fibers of Japanese identity all generations.
Since 1984, Akimoto began writing songs for mass fashion idols, highlighting Momoko Kikuchi (Graduation), Issues of Shojo Tai Onyanko Club (almost all items of the group, soloists and sub-units) and even elegant items of 1989 Wink idol group, being Checkikko idol group that characterized him in the '90s.
Promote the "format" worldwide idol.
Yasushi Akimoto recently in a program of public broadcaster NHK said it has decided to promote the "format" idol around the world and openly explained their ambitions of creating franchises in several cities worldwide.
His visit to MIPCOM last October in Cannes France, was to present his most ambitious new project: Sekai 48 (around the world 48).
Akimoto has always worked for television, not a musician but a writer and screenwriter, making his way to boost the Idol format is not through music but through the "TV formats.
Emulating the format of Endemol and Freemantle (creators of the format "Idols", "American Idol, Big Brother, etc) trying to position Akimoto Japanese Idol format in taste across the world, selling television format based on Auditions, selection by the public and training of 3 teams with 48 members.
The graph shows the NHK idol groups worldwide, such as "Moscow 48", Pekin 48, Paris 48, Delhi 48, Nairobi 48, New York 48, Rio 48, etc..
The full documentary can be seen in NHK youtube:
If there is someone experienced in the middle idol, that's Yasushi Akimoto. Although not alone, it is who has all the experience of many successful groups producing them but may not create the lyrics of their songs as well as showing his skills as a producer since 2005 when he formed AKB48.
Sounds complicated idol that gender as such, with all its characteristics have a strong acceptance and dissemination in the world, however, is hopeful that at least someone has the interest of disseminating this format once prevalent in other countries the vision Western idol strictly based on commercial and non-Japanese vision based on an image of "purity, honesty and beauty."
As producer Yasushi Akimoto AKB48 idol has driven the traditional format based on the rules "Kiyoku, tadashiku, utsukushiku" without boyfriends, scandal or misconduct. It also took the model gravure idol (photogenic idol) from the 80s, which exploit the physical image of the idol, the outline of "watch the apple but not eat it, because nobody can eat" as a mechanism that promotes physical beauty of the girl who never before dared to be an artist or model.
The questions are obvious when Akimoto tries to sell his franchise to the world is: Apply the same rules as other countries idol from Japan? (expelling see who was with a boyfriend, for example). Will you sell your songs or concession will only television format? "He himself will be led by the Selection or castings shall conform to the culture of each country?
