Nothing much has happened.
Except THIS!
Umeda Erika is to graduate from C-ute (and Hello! Project) on the 25th of October, to become a fashion model.
Good on you, Erika!
C-ute wasn't giving you enough attention (I guess because you can't sing that well...) so it's a great to get the attention back on you!
Good luck in your modelling career! I'm sure you'll do great!
Wow, C-ute has gone from a 7-nin to a 6-nin to a 5-nin group all in one year...
Maybe this means the other girls will get more lines for once?
Maybe.
