Kumi Koda, a Japanese pop star has reportedly apologized for outrageous comments that she made. Apparently, she claimed that a woman’s body isn’t fit for child birth after age 35 on a live radio show “All Night Nippon” and urged women to have children before they reach 35. She said:
“Mothers’ amnion fluid is rotten once they turn around 35. I mean it. It gets dirty.”
The controversy Kumi caused in Japan has resulted in her losing a major advertising contract with a cosmetics company. Koda’s agency, Avex Entertainment, also announced they were halting promotion for her album Kingdom. So now the 25-year-old star has issued a statement on her website:
“I sincerely and deeply apologize for offending people with my remark.”
Ouch! I guess Kumi has learned that she can’t say whatever she’d like to. While I don’t agree with her remarks, she could’ve said worse. I wonder what caused her to talk about women’s reproductive systems in the first place though. Maybe she’s in medical school at the moment when she’s not singing?
1 babblicious comments:
No, she’s making a pathetic case that women over 35 are ‘undesireable’ and fundamentally worthless to marry as they are past their prime and their ‘amnion fluids are dirty’.
SRSLY. That girl has issues. And now she as problems. I didn’t know about her ’til now, but it is all negative. Saying ’sorry I offended - now please give me my cosmetics contract and resume work on my record and all prepare to worship me’ doesn’t cut it. This is the hateful arrogance of a narcissistic young woman.
Unfortunately with the Infantile sexual culture (Lolita, Kuwai) of Japan she thought she was making a revolutionary cry to blot out the competition by creating revulsion in men for women over 35. That just sucks. It all blew back at her and then some.
