Misaki Ito Marries Millionaire

I’ve got some sad news for you Misaki Ito (伊東美咲) fans.

The beautiful Japanese actress and model of Densha Otoko fame announced this past Monday that she has tied the knot with Japanese business man Yoshinori Enomoto (榎本善紀), 8 years her senior.  Since the couple met at Japanese gravure model/actress Mami Uematsu’s wedding in Hawaii last November, Misaki says they plan on holding a small wedding ceremony there too this November.

Misaki Ito starred in the 2001 NTV drama Beauty 7 (ビューティー７) with Uematsu and Enomoto is a friend of the groom.

40 year old Yoshinori Enomoto is often called “the prince of pachinko” as the head of Kyoraku (京楽産業), one of the premier Japanese pachinko manufacturers.  Reports of Misaki dating the Japanese multi-millionaire first surfaced in March of this year.  They were sighted dining at an upscale teppan yaki restaurant in Tokyo earlier in the year with Japanese actress/model Uno Kanda and her husband who is a successful operator of pachinko parlor chain.  The total bill reportedly came out to be around $2000 and Misaki’s man picked up the tab.  Ito and Enomoto have also been spotted taking hot spring trips and going expensive furniture shopping together.

While usually Japanese actresses are free to marry whoever they want, Misaki Ito’s management agency has indirectly voiced some displeasure at her sudden announcement.  Apparently she failed to notify her handler Kenon (研音) in advance and it became rather embarrassing when it was approached for comment.  The agency expressed surprise and said they only knew Yoshinori Enomoto as one of her friends.

The tall and slender Fukushima Prefecture native is no stranger to Japanese tabloids.  Misaki has dated some hunks in the past, including Japanese actor Mokomichi Hayami and J-pop singer ISSA of Da Pump.  I wonder how long this marriage will last as we all know beautiful actress and successful businessman is not always the best combination (case in point – Megumi Okina and her entrepreneur ex-husband).

Misaki Ito Married, Handler Not Happy

An Engaged Mikitty Is Happy

Haha this should be categorized as a “prequel”.  But since we’re on the hot news trail of marriage announcement from the sexy and talented Miki Fujimoto (藤本美貴), I thought I’d write up this piece too.

Former Hello!Project and Morning Musume Japanese super idol Miki Fujimoto appeared alongside with ex-colleague Mai Satoda (里田まい) at the end of May at a publicity event put on by McDonald’s Japan and Coca Cola Japan.  It was the Hokkaido Prefecture native’s first appearance since the announcement of her engagement to Japanese comedian Tomoharu Shoji of Shinagawa Shoji duo.

At the promotional event Mikitty frankly told the reporters that she’s happy she met her man and he’s the perfect partner.  Upon hearing such candid words, Mai said, “I’m so envious.  I also want to say I’m getting married.  I’d like to have a partner”

At the campaign for Coke glass the two girls also played a mini futsal match with ex Japanese national team players.  Playing off the soccer theme, after the exhibition match Mikitty was peppered with questions such as “When’s the kick-off for your marriage” and “What do you consider as a red card in a relationship”.  To which the 24 year old former Morning Musume replied, “I’d like to have a decision about the wedding by July.  To me cheating constitutes as a red card.”

Japanese Singer Idol Miki Fujimoto Married

The day countless Mikitty fanboys around the world fear the most has come.  Former leader of the Japanese super idol group Morning Musume Miki Fujimoto (藤本美貴) announced on Sunday Japan time that she and fiance Tomoharu Shoji (庄司智春) have tied the knot.

Wedding photos taken in Hawaii released to the public

Miki caused quite an uproar back in 2007 when she was caught dating the second rate monkey-looking Japanese comedian as the leader of the most popular J-pop idol group.  The couple was dubbed “Beauty and the Beast” by the Japanese media.  Nobody thought they’d last but this past March their engagement was announced to the public.

At the press conference the 24 year old Hokkaido Prefecture native appeared in an elegant white dress with black dots looking as cute as ever.  The 6th generation Morning Musume member and former Hello!Project artist told the media that she and Tomoharu, one half of Japanese comedy duo Shinagawa Shoji have already held a wedding ceremony in Hawaii on the 3rd.  To quell Miki’s fanboys any last shred of hope, Mr. Shoji announced that they officially registered their marriage the day before.

It was revealed that Tomoharu actually first proposed to Miki last summer.  However Miki did not accept it because it didn’t include include a ring and wasn’t up to her expectation so she made the Yoshimoto Kogyo comedian try again.  Affectionately known to her fans as “Mikitty” (because of her love for Sanrio character Hello Kitty), she commented that she was moved when she realized that she has changed her last name.

When the subject came to children, Mikitty said, “We don’t have any plans to have kids right now.  But I want us to enjoy each other’s company first then have kids.”  The porcelain skinned songstress added that she’ll start moving her stuff over to her new hubby’s place.

While I’m not too thrilled to hear the news (yes, I too, am a Mikitty fan), I had a feeling this day would come.  Such is the harsh reality of life!  Fellas, we’ve lost another pretty young one.

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).

Rina Fujii Dating DA PUMP’s ISSA

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…

Some of the portraits released to the media of “The Black Ship of Gravure World” (グラビア界の黒船) gravure idol later turned singer Leah Dizon (see more of her on our site by searching for her or by clicking here). I think the 22 year old looks very graceful and pretty in traditional Japanese ceremonial wedding gown.

Pirates Return

Yoshimi Asada, one half of 90s Japanese big tits gravure duo “Pirates”

For one night only the popular 90s gravure idol duo “Pirates” (パイレーツ) will appear together on Fuji TV’s variety show VocaBra Tengoku Special (ボキャブラ天国). Pirates, the name a play off Japanese slang for tits (pai), was composed of Yoshimi Asada (浅田好未) and Haruka Nishimoto (西本はるか), both were still in their teen when they made their debut but both were already blessed with E and F cup tits.

Yoshimi’s soft F cup tits are just as creamy and inviting now as when she was a 17 year old who was selected as the runner up of Miss Young Magazine 1997 (ミスヤングマガジン) gravure contest. I can’t wait to see Yoshimi and Haruka’s ample bosom on TV again!

Yoshimi, now 29 and mother of a child leaked the news on her blog this past Wednesday. She wouldn’t say when the special would air but promised to tell when it’s decided. The Kanagawa Prefecture (just south of Tokyo) native held a shotgun wedding last July while 5 months pregnant and gave birth to a son in November.

Yoshimi Asada looking hot even when pregnant…I’m not afraid to say I’d still take her to bed, big belly and all!

Besides looking cute and sporting big tittie dynamite bodies, the rambunctious and sometimes bitchy Pirates were famous for their one liner “dacchuno!” (だっちゅーの), said as the girls look into the camera with their torso lowered and their boobs bunched up by their arms, revealing two delicious cleavages. The phrase daccchuno was such a pop culture phenomenon that it was chosen as one of the most popular words in 1998!

Chiriko Sakashita to Wed

Former Japanese pin-up girl, model and “talent” (a generic Japanese word used to refer to entertainers) Chiriko Sakashita has announced to the media via fax that she will register her marriage tomorrow.

The 31 year old leggy beauty has been dating her fiance for about 4 years and describes him as an “ordinary guy” (meaning not in showbiz). In the fax Chiriko wrote that she’s extremely happy right now, and she’s thankful that her fiance is willing to make her his wife even though she’s in showbiz.

No date for the ceremony or reception has been set. Chiriko plans to continue working after getting married.

Her legs are the object of desire for many Japanese men
