Shingo Katori's declaration of ``I'm participating in the Junon Superboy Contest!'' causes chaos at the ``Nanani'' studio.

■Shingo Katori will participate in the contest as a guest judge. “Isn’t this the first time for you to audition?” (Goro Inagaki)

From 8pm on November 3rd, #48 of the program “Nanani Chika ABEMA” starring Goro Inagaki, Tsuyoshi Kusanagi, and Shingo Katori was broadcast.

#48 is titled “A gathering of the most popular handsome men and super cute teens! Parents will also appear! Special”, and Mio Maekawa, who won the beauty pageant grand prize and is said to be “Japan’s cutest junior high school student”, will be the winner of the high school 1st year mister contest grand prix. Tenhiko Saito, Junon Superboy Contest Grand Prix winner Junsei Ishiyama, gluttonous beauty teen Harano Segawa, and handsome magician teen Sugiyan appear in the studio.

We take a closer look at their unknown secrets, such as behind-the-scenes stories from the contest and stories from their childhood that made them popular.

As the talk unfolded, there was a scene where Katori surprised the studio by announcing, “I’m going to participate in the Junon Superboy Contest!” It has been announced that Katori will serve as a guest judge at the Junon Superboy Contest in 2024, and he once again said, “You’ve appeared in the Junon magazine, so I’m sure you’ll be the best among them (various questions asked).” When I explained the process, Kusanagi seemed convinced, saying, “(Katori) also has the ability to comment!” (laughs).

Then, Inagaki asked, “Isn’t this your first time? Who’s the one auditioning?” Kusanagi continued, “It’s not a big responsibility, it’s about your intentions, right?” Katori answered, “Once it was announced, a lot of people said, “ “You’re going to be a judge!” he said, realizing the gravity of the situation after the announcement.

Afterwards, Michopa, who had experience as a judge in 2019, shared her experience as a senior, and Katori’s expression, which had been cheerful until now, completely changed, and she looked worried, wondering, “I wonder if I can do that…” I showed it.

Katori became worried and asked this guest, Ishiyama, who won the 2023 Junon Superboy Contest Grand Prix, “How much can (the judges) talk?” When Ishiyama told her that she actually doesn’t talk that much, Katori silently nodded, looking disappointed, and Michopa saw this and made a brilliant tsukkomi: “Are you aiming for JY Park?” Finally, upon learning that Ishiyama would be on stage as the 2024 Grand Prix winner, Katori joked, “I’ll meet you on set, Shikato!” and the studio erupted in laughter.
