Johnny Kitagawa: Head of Japan’s biggest talent agency admits founder abused young stars – BBC News


The boss of Johnny and Assosciates, Japan’s biggest pop talent agency, has resigned after finally admitting the sexual abuse committed by its late founder, Johnny Kitagawa.

Julie Fujishima resigned on Thursday during a public apology to her uncle’s victims.

Her departure comes a week after a major inquiry found Kitagawa had "extensively" abused young idols at his pop agency over a six-decade career.

He died in 2019, having always denied wrongdoing. He never faced charges.
