AKB48 Team 8 Members Revealed


A while ago, AKB48 announced that they would create a Team 8 sponsored by Toyota. On April 3, the members for this new team were introduced to the public for the first time.

47 girls, one for each prefecture, passed the auditions. They were selected from about 10,000 applicants. The average age is 14,4. The oldest member is 19, the youngest 12.

The concept for the new team is "idols who come to meet you" so from May on the new team will hold events all over Japan. Then sometime in the fall they will start a Toyota campaign.

It was also announced at the presentation event, that the new Team 8 members can participate at the Senbatsu Election!
