'''℃-ute''' is an all-female [[Japanese pop]] group within [[Hello! Project]]. The character "℃" (degree [[Celsius]]) is substituted for "C" in notation for the purpose of expressing ardor&mdash;the hyphen does not have any meaning in particular. The proper pronunciation for this group in Japanese is {{nihongo|''kyūto''|キュート}} with [[Japanese pitch accent|pitch accents]] on both "ū" and "o".
The event started as a pay-per-view under the name '''Vengeance''' in 2001,<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.wwe.com/shows/nightofchampions/|accessdate=2008-06-21|title=WWE Night of Champions website|publisher=[[World Wrestling Entertainment]]|date=2008-06-02|quote=Before WWE's June pay-per-view event was called Night of Champions, it was dubbed Vengeance.

|accessdate=2008-06-21|title=WWF Vengeance PPV|publisher=Lords of Pain|date=2001-10-01}}</ref> In 2002, Vengeance proceeded into the event taking over [[WWF Fully Loaded|Fully Loaded]]'s pay-per-view spot. The 2003 event was exclusive to the [[WWE Friday Night SmackDown|SmackDown!]] [[WWE Brand Extension|brand]], while from 2004 to 2006, the events were [[WWE Raw|Raw]] exclusive. In 2005, Vengeance was moved once again, this time switching positions with [[WWE The Great American Bash|The Great American Bash]].


== History ==
The 2007 event was named [[Vengeance: Night of Champions]], as all [[World Wrestling Entertainment#Current champions|nine WWE championships]] were defended that night. In 2008, the event was renamed to Night of Champions, keeping the format of the 2007 event, in the process dropping the Vengeance name.
℃-ute was formed in the year 2005, consisting of seven girls from [[Hello! Project Kids]] who were not chosen to form the group [[Berryz Kobo]]. The group was officially announced on [[June 11]], [[2005]], though its formation had been rumored for several months prior. Later, in January 2006, Kanna Arihara, a Hello Pro Egg, was added at the start of the Hello! Project Winter 2006 tour, as part of the Wonderful Hearts team. On [[October 31]], [[2006]], [[Megumi Murakami]] left the group suddenly without any graduation ceremony.


Prior to the band's formation, some members worked with members of [[Morning Musume]] in such side projects as [[Aa!]] and [[ZYX]], as well as the [[MiniMoni]] movie ''[[MiniMoni Ja Movie: Okashina Daibouken|Okashina Daibouken]]''.

Cute

℃-ute is an all-female Japanese pop group within Hello! Project. The character "℃" (degree Celsius) is substituted for "C" in notation for the purpose of expressing ardor—the hyphen does not have any meaning in particular. The proper pronunciation for this group in Japanese is kyūto (キュート) with pitch accents on both "ū" and "o".

History

℃-ute was formed in the year 2005, consisting of seven girls from Hello! Project Kids who were not chosen to form the group Berryz Kobo. The group was officially announced on June 11, 2005, though its formation had been rumored for several months prior. Later, in January 2006, Kanna Arihara, a Hello Pro Egg, was added at the start of the Hello! Project Winter 2006 tour, as part of the Wonderful Hearts team. On October 31, 2006, Megumi Murakami left the group suddenly without any graduation ceremony.

Prior to the band's formation, some members worked with members of Morning Musume in such side projects as Aa! and ZYX, as well as the MiniMoni movie Okashina Daibouken.

Incidentally, the Aa!, Berryz Kobo, and ℃-ute chain are in alphabetical order (ABC), and ZYX itself is in reverse alphabetical order (XYZ).

On February 21 2007, ℃-ute's first official single "Sakura Chirari" was released. On the first day it ranked third on the Oricon charts, a feat not even accomplished by Morning Musume (who had ranked 6th on their debut single).[1] With their debut single, they became the youngest group (with the average age of 13) to rank in the top 10.[2] Their latest single has debuted at #3 of the Oricon Weekly Charts.

On December 30 2007, ℃-ute was chosen as the Best New Artist Award with Japan Record Award.
