What does MC mean in Japanese?


Saw this on twitter:

MC挟んでいいなら♪( ´▽｀)RT @miri_sid: @mao_sid マオくんは全曲連続で歌えますか？(^-^)

Can't find the Japanese definition of MC anywhere. What does that say?




`MC` in Japanese nowadays most commonly means a talk (by a singer) in between
songs at a (pop) concert. It is a 和製英語 (wasei-eigo) under this meaning. It
seems to have derived from the phrase 'master of ceremony'. In a broader
context, it simply means a talk at some event.
