Pink Lady to go ahead with Japan tour
The Pink Lady duo greet fans in the lobby after their mini-live event for charity in Tokyo.
TOKYO — Reformed 1970s pop duo Pink Lady, currently in the middle of their sixth reunion, took part in a live music event for charity in
Tokyo last week, performing 11 fan favorites, including “Pepper Keibu” and “UFO.”

Keiko Masuda, 52, (known to fans as “Kei”) and Mitsuyo Nemoto, 52, (“Mie”), told the audience, “It’s the duty of those of us outside
affected areas to send as much positive energy and cheer their way as we can. Pink Lady will continue to sing and dance as we always do.”

A spokesperson for the duo said that in order to conserve electricity during their upcoming Japan tour, stage lighting will be replaced by an array of LEDs and that the stage show has also been altered. All proceeds from charity auctions and merchandise sales will be donated to earthquake and tsunami relief funds. The duo has also announced plans to establish their own foundation in the near future.

Pink Lady performed their first ever concert on March 31, 1977. Then on the same day in 1981, the pair gave their farewell concert at Korakuen Stadium in Tokyo. They told fans, “It has been exactly 30 years since that breakup, so today is a special day for us. Believe in your dreams. Let’s all pull together.”

Pink Lady’s Japan tour is set to kick off in May.
