Japanese TV Meat Helmet Morning Musume show


Above: Beware the Lizard!

Ok, let me get this straight: Let's put a bunch of jpop gals under a platform, with only their heads sticking out, with meat attached to their heads, and then have a lizard run around and nip at the meat. Right. Oh, and we'll also have Christmas decorations on the set? Sounds like a winner! And it is!
"That's not a gameshow, it's a segment from a music/entertainmenment show. all those girls are in one girl band, with a bunch of members, called morning musume. they're the same girls from the clip of the group of girls getting scared and crying when a girl jumps out from under the t.v. when they're watching 'the ring'.

if you think japanese t.v. is insane, you should watch some of their music videos. morning musume is a group of girls with an ever changing cast run by a single producer, named tsunku, who used to be in a ginormous boy band himself. morning musume are all over in japan. you can watch their t.v. shows, shop at their stores, go see the touring childs subgroup (mini moni), watch them in gazillions of commercials (they have an especially catchy pocky jingle), and even play their ps2 and gba video games. they're insane." - John Morley
