Aim for the Bouquet

ブーケをねらえ!   부케를 노려라   瞄準!! 新娘捧花大搶奪!

Aim for the Bouquet asks the question "would you want to marry the mystery celebrity?" This format's unique feature is a "voice audience" made up of 100 single men when the guest celebrity is female, or single women when the guest is a man. After each question, the voting audience decides whether they approve of the celebrity's answer. While the viewer can see and hear the celebrity guest, the celebrity's identity is electronically hidden from the voting audience who, uninfluenced by any preconception, form their opinions based only on the answers given. Conflict, humor and surprising results build to the dramatic conclusion.
