There was a big two hour special on last night in fact. Comedians and other "talented" folks gather and put on a complete show of imitations. Some are serious, some are funny, some are tributes, some take the piss. It's all in good fun, and for the Japanese, it's a break from reality. Imitator shows are common in Japan.

Besides singing, each member has gone on into acting or hosting and doing variety shows. Unfortunately, this skit with band member, Shingo Katori playing "Smasan Boyle" lip-synching to some mysterious real singer, doesn't seem funny at all. Cross-dressing, by the way, is supposed to pull laughs like Bob Hope and Milton Berle used to. If you want to see an even crazier cross-dressing character of Shingo's, take a look at his "Shingo Mama" character which was very popular with kids. (Watch for cameos of Jackson Brown & I think Jackie Chan is even in there.) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AullHqZomY0&feature=related SMAP is like the most successful boy band ever in Japan.

Two of the judges are supposed to be Amanda Holden and Simon Cowell of Britain's Got Talent. The man backstage is supposed to be Smasan Boyle's lip-syncher, whom Boyle seems nervous about and runs off when Cowell questions her.
