Petit Moni |
---|
Petitmoni (プッチモニ), also known as Pucchi Moni, was the second official subgroup of J-Pop girl group Morning Musume. They sang fast-paced, upbeat songs.
History
Founded November, 1999, the group's first generation of members consisted of three Morning Musume members: Kei Yasuda, Sayaka Ichii, and Maki Goto. Shortly after their formation, the group released their first single, "Chokotto LOVE," which sold more than 1 million copies.
After the release of the first single, on May 21, 2000 Sayaka Ichii graduated from both Morning Musume and Petitmoni. In order to fill the third member's position, their producer Tsunku placed Hitomi Yoshizawa into the group, forming the second generation. Petitmoni went on to three more singles, with their only album, Zenbu! Pucchi Moni, released in August of 2002. The album was a collection of all their singles and B-side tracks, along with three extra tracks.
Maki Goto graduated from both Morning Musume and Petitmoni in 2002. Shortly thereafter, Kei Yasuda's graduation was announced for 2003. This sparked yet another formation change, in which Ayaka Kimura (of Coconuts Musume) and Makoto Ogawa were added. Yoshizawa became the new leader, but the new lineup never released a single; only a song entitled WOW WOW WOW and a remake of Chokotto LOVE, which were included on later Pucchi Best compilation CDs.
As of 2003, the group has been on indefinite hiatus. With Makoto Ogawa going on hiatus to attend college, there is no immediate sign of their return. Hitomi Yoshizawa will be graduating from Morning Musume in May of 2007 to begin a solo career within Hello! Project.
