Guess what?: Coboy Junior looses a member, changes name

Tribun Jakarta

JAKARTA: Booming teen boy band Coboy Junior agreed to let go of one of its members, Bastian, and decided to rebrand and be called CJR from now on.

In a farewell concert in Jakarta recently, the band cleared up the rumors that the group was about to break up.

'€œWe are here tonight to make a clear statement. Many are speculating about what is going on '€” and it is true,'€ said group leader Kiki as quoted by tempo.co.

Another member, Aldi, said that whatever changes Coboy Junior went through it would be the best decision for all its members.

Lastly, the group'€™s die-hard fans were shocked when Bastian said he would be leaving the band after three years together.

'€œCoboy Junior was born as a four-member troupe. If someone leaves, then it'€™s no longer Coboy Junior,'€ Kiki said.
