ICONIQ’s boyfriend, Tadanari Lee, wins Asian Cup for Japan + “Hoot” celebration?

Popular journalist Ikegami Akira (60) has announced that, as of March,Adidas Porsche Design, he is going to leave all of his regular shows and entirely retire from appearing on TV.

Ikegami is a prominent figure on Japanese TV and radio. He had started out as a reporter and announcer for NHK before becoming a free TV host in 2005. Up until now, he has been hosting several TV shows that have always achieved high ratings such as “Ikegami Akira no Manaberu News” (TV Asahi) and the irregular “Zoom In,Adidas Bounce S,Adidas Porsche Bounce!! SUPER” (NTV). Additionally, he has also been working as a regular member on four different radio shows.

The former show has always tried to serve its viewers with easy to understand explanations to all kind of questions. One of Ikegami’s most used lines during the show,Nike Mercurial Vapor Superfly II, “That’s a very nice question”, has even made it into the Top 10 of the best buzzwords of 2010.

Officials have explained the reason for his retirement as follows: “Ikegami wants to return to his roots of being a journalist and completely devote himself to his writing.”

Meanwhile,Nike Mercurial Victory TF,adidas obyo jeremy scott, TV Asahi has already announced that they are still in discussion with Ikegami to at least get him appear on a couple of shows since it would be quite difficult to imagine Japanese TV without him.

Maybe it won’t be a definite retirement after all.
