Japanese Fashion Model Rina Fujii Dating Singer

Popular Japanese fashion and lingerie model Rina Fujii (藤井リナ) held a press event last month in Tokyo for her self produced wedding dress brand L et Lena.  The quarter American hottie who just turned 25 last Thursday showed up in a gorgeous red wedding gown and appeared very happy.

Tokyo born Rina has been the talk of town because last month Japanese gossip magazine Josei Seven (女性セブン) reported that she was exchanging passionate kisses on the street with Japanese hip hop group DA PUMP vocal ISSA, real name Issa Hentona (辺土名 一茶).  The timing couldn’t have been more perfect for the reporters to ask Rina, who’s been saying she’d like to get married since she was a teenager, about her love life and wedding plans.  When a reporter inquired whether the sexy ViVi and Peach John model was wearing the wedding dress while in love, the reply was, “Yes, everyday.”

ISSA is no small time player.  As leader of DA PUMP, the 30 year old Okinawan has made sure his group continues to see success since its debut back in 1997.  He has dated big name entertainers such as Japanese actress Ko Sibasaki (柴咲コウ) and gravure idol / talent Yu Abiru (あびる優).

The press wanted confirmation and asked, “Is your boyfriend the same as the person reported in the article?”  Rina Fujii could barely hold back her smile and responded with a simple “yes”.  When asked how she’d spend her birthday, Rina said, “I plan on spending it with my family, so I’ll hold off going on a date with my boyfriend.  But it’d be nice if there’s a surprise.”  She turned red and replied, “His kindness” when reporters asked what does she like most about her beau.

According to Rina Fujii, who went by the name “Lena” when she first started modeling, the couple hasn’t discussed marriage yet.  But she does hope to get married so she’d like to make it happen someday.  When approached for comment, ISSA’s agency Vision Factory (ヴィジョンファクトリー) responded, “He is an adult so we leave all private matters to him.”

I wonder if she’d say yes if she was presented with a fat ring on her birthday…
