From Madam Dewi Sukarno's May 12 blog entry, titled “The Kano Sisters,” comes the following: “I heard that the Kano sisters requested Sony Pictures not to invite me to the film preview that they’re attending. I wonder why I should be placed together with the likes of them. We’re on entirely different levels. Or perhaps they don’t have the confidence… I guess you can call them beautiful but dull ‘cyborg’ sisters…”
Time and again, Sukarno (who likes the media to refer to her as Madam Dewi) has expressed disfavor toward the famed sisters since their first encounter 10 years ago. In her essay published in 2000, she described the Kano sisters as vixens, suggesting that they “return to the mountains” and in a 2006 magazine interview, called stories of their childhood “cheap pulp fiction.”
The sisters, on the other hand, have made no comment whatsoever. Pony Canyon, which distributes the Kano sisters’ DVD and manages their official website, stated that the sisters have no interest in what others say about them.
Entertainment reporter Masaru Nashimoto confides, “Precaution is always taken to ensure that Madam Dewi and the sisters don’t come into direct contact with each other. They almost did at a film-related event in August last year, which was a major headache to the parties involved. Perhaps the promoter feared a similar event could happen.”
The marketing department at Sony Pictures, though, denies knowledge of such a request from the sisters. No one wants to be involved after all.

One walks North to Hokkaido, the others head south to Kagoshima, then take the ferry to Okinawa so they cn keep distance on each other.

Good on the sisters, for not joining in a cheap media slanging match.
Samuraiiki
She looks swollen like a gourd.

cleo
It's a badly-painted human being.

"Sukarno (who likes the media to refer to her as Madam Dewi)"
With an ego like that how can she possibly criticize anyone else. I always thought she was related to the Kano sisters judging by her appearance.
Samuraiiki
Look at those pendants, as if it would make her more of a person than anybody else.
GW
guess she will have to buy a ticket like the rest of us, her dictators pension shud proivide her enough funds for a ticket I wud think
timeon
I guess they remind her of herself some years ago... But I do agree with her statements: "dull cyborg sisters" :)

Guess this gilded cow can't very well throw potted plants at people on cyberspace...
USNinJapan2
What's the matter Dewi? Ran out of potted plants?...
Peaceful_Man
Both parties are lapping up th emeadia frenzy that this non-event creates. (e tu JT)
scoobydoo
I find none of them beautiful on the outside and definitely ugly as sin on the inside. Beats me why they are so popular.

"Chews out"? Is that a new phrase the cool kids use? "Eat out" I've heard of but never chew out.

The Kano Sisters are srsly a waste of television time. Want to see Plastic Surgery gone wrong, just stare at them.
tooheysnew
I do stare at them but however much I try, I just can`t seem to get my eyes above their neck. And yes I know - they are definately fake, but who cares.
Elbuda Mexicano
I will take the Kano sisters over Dewey Sukarno anyday! Them mountains of plastic surgery are a god send to these poor islands. More J girls should learn from these 2 young beauties, the lovely Kano sisters!
XXXXX
my thoughts exactly. In a few years Dewi won't be far behind; the Kano walking disasters are merely accelerating the horrors of plastic surgery.
XXXXX
and the more they change, the more they stay the awful same.
Sarge
"and the more they change, the more they stay the awful same"
That's not very nice.
XXXXX
other than being the truth? haha
bcbrownboy
Can't believe these old has-been hags can get any press. J-press, okay, but "our" press?????
smithinjapan
I agree 100% what this woman says -- the Kano sisters are absolutely disgusting in terms of appearance and decadance. That being said, unlike this woman, I utterly respect them for not caring what others say about them, and not buying into this woman's game.
Personally, I cringe looking at any one of the three, let alone imagining having to touch them! Yuck!

"Dewi Sukarno EATS out Kano sisters!!!" now, there's a headline! he he he
PaulieWalnuts
maybe the mod can tell you.
Moderator: Readers, what's the problem? "Chew out" means to scold, reprimand or berate.
Himajin
It simply means to berate or scold.
XXXXX
No, it means reprimand, scold or berate. Paulie, you can tell they enjoy a dive into dicionaries.
Sarge
"she described the Kano sisters as vixens, suggesting that they return to the mountains"
Heck, the Kano sisters carry the mountains with them wherever they go, nyuk nyuk nyuk!
Sidwarwick
Sarge - nice one.

Sukarno has mouth that was created in some dark, forgotten poisonous place. She is hardly a fountain of feminine decorum. She is just filled with spite and viciousness. I've never seen her say a decent word about anyone on television.
realist
The Kano sisters are kimochi warui. The older one is especially scary. Those boob jobs are like something out of a Frankenstein movie. As for this other "diva" making these bitchy remarks about the sisters - well, she is also a scary woman. Just three bitches having a cat fight! I suppose it is a lighter story in the middle of all the gloom these days. I do know there is not an ounce of talent in all three of these vixens.
smithinjapan
I feel sorry for the Kano sisters, really, disgusting as they are. They have decent personalities, decadence (I mentioned, I know) aside. But all they have going for them is their looks, which are hideous. The plastic surgery can only put off the natural process for so long until they start looking even MORE fake. Then methinks we'll see about as much of them as we do Michael Jackson, save that their money won't last them as long in Japan.
vukodlok
Dewi Sukarno should be in jail and return the money that her husband embezzled from the people of Indonesia.
thepro
Dewi lives in a fantasy world inside her own head
gogogo
She needs someone to throw a potted flower at her.
Mittsu
I think the Kano's do a fine job....
UnagiDon
Dewi and the Kano's are equally vile.
greensatindress
are any of them really Japanese?
WilliB
They are all Japanese, but it wouldn´t be a great loss for the country if they went somewhere else.

greensatindress
They are about as Japanese as Michael Jackson is black... : )
Samuraiiki
They are all from Mars with swollen heads.
