Kintamayama 47,194 Posted June 3, 2003 Non- Yokozuna Chiyotaikai is involved in an affair with TV celebrity Kawamura Hikaru. I have no idea who she is, except that she has a travel show on TV and is currently filming in Bali, Indonesia. Gossip papers say he stayed at her "mansion" for three nights, and has proposed. Kokonoe Oyakata denied that, though he acknowledged the relationship. He said he asked the man himself, who denied . "He has no reason to lie about this. If he says it's not true, it's not. He has been warned not to say careless (???) things". They (Chiyo and Hikaru, not Chiyo and Kokonoe..) have been seen together playing golf and at the races, which are their mutual hobbies, other than their "other" mutual hobbies. The papers are saying that "27 years of age is the right time for him to tie the knot". Her staff is also acknowledging the relationship, but won't say anymore. She's due back on the 6th. Asashouryuu is in Mongolia visiting family etc., and will return on the 7th. Takanohana did the rounds yesterday thanking other Oyakatas for coming to his dampatushiki and stuff. He is expected to preside over Futagoyama beya's keiko this morning. Futagoyama Oyakata has voiced his wish to devote more time to his other chores in the Kyokai, so my wild guess is that Takanohana beya will emerge much sooner than expected.

Kintamayama 47,194 Posted June 3, 2003 Non- Yokozuna Chiyotaikai You mean, Future Yokozuna Chiyotaikai. I don't dabble in hopeless procrastination. Non- Yokozuna Chiyotaikai is what I meant. I deal with fact, not Science fiction.. :-D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zenjimoto 40 Posted June 3, 2003 A beautiful woman. DAMN! No wonder he didn't make Yokozuna, with a distraction like that! (Yellow cat...) (Clapping wildly...) :-D The man may not have what it takes to be Yokozuna, but he certainly has taste... I hope it doesn't turn into another fiasco, like Takanohana's bout with a certain TV celebrity in the past... Cheers Zenjimoto Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yoavoshimaru 0 Posted June 3, 2003 (edited) WOW was my reaction as well. I've just found some new respect for Chiyotaikai! (Clapping wildly...) (And I had respect for him before, make no mistake)... (Sign of approval) There are always two views on this issue: either having a companion will make him calmer, more confident, more relaxed, and thus better. Or it will be a distraction, not letting him focus on sumo, and thereby reducing the quality of his sumo. It's hard to tell until the basho... :-D (Applauding...)
