W
Information:
This is a Hello! Project group, compromised of former Morning Musume members (and graduates), Kago Ai and Tsuji Nozomi. The group name "W" is "Double You", which means "you and you".
This group's activity was suspended in 2006, when Kago Ai was caught smoking in public, going against her "idol" image. In 2007, Kago was seen with a 37 year old man, smoking once again. With this act, she was released from Hello! Project permanently. Also in 2007, Tsuji Nozomi announced that she was pregnant, and marrying the father of the child, Sugiura Taiyou (star of Ultraman Cosmos). This did not result in Tsuji's dismissal, but rather just her taking a leave from Hello! Project.
As a result of these happenings, it is believed that W will never be reformed. In fact, their section of the Hello! Project website has been completely removed.
