People outside Japan have a bad tendency to associate local cuisine exclusively with sushi, which is just plain wrong. But fish loom large, of course -- even in gravure.
Gradol Shihomi Yoshino likes to kinky with raw fish, as we have previously documented on this blog.
If you want to see a naked Japanese woman "dressed" in uncooked fish, then she's the one for you. After all, it's a crowded industry and every idol needs a gimmick to help them stand out. Yoshino describes herself as "between gravure and angling" and she prefers to use dried fish in her work.
She's at it again, this time ...
It was a bit of a shock when Yuka Kuramochi, the top Japanese gravure idol and staple subject matter of this humble blog, announced her marriage to pro gamer Fuudo in later 2019 (after years of secret dating). She went quiet after that and is effectively retired from gravure, instead spending most of her time tweeting about esports and games.
Inevitably, Fuudo did not waste much time in impregnating her -- and who can blame him?
Yuka announced her pregnancy at the end of December and is due in late May.
She recently shared a series of maternity photos on her social media ...
In our continuing survey of what gradols and porn stars do after leaving their jobs, we now have the example of one of the most prominent JAV performers of recent years: Ai Uehara.
Having just won a high-profile diversity award, Ai is wasting no time in launching the next stage in her working life.
She has just started a crowdfunding campaign, aire (pronounced "eye re"), for a new of health and beauty supplement brand called AminoR-20+Zn. As the name suggests, the supplement contains zinc and 20 types of amino acids. The project is produced by Ai in partnership with a corporation, ...
Former top adult video star Ai Uehara is about to kick off her second career with a crowdfunding campaign later this month. The details are still a little slim, though it seems to involve launching her own photography brand. We hope to report more next week.
In the meantime, Ai has been in the news for another reason: she won the Miss iD 2021 award.
The 28-year-old was selected from 2,676 candidates and 194 finalists for the prize, which is now in its ninth year.
The finalists had to attend interviews to win over the the judges. Following auditions held online last August, the event to ...
The busty, popular gravure idol and actress Fumika Baba has reached a new stage of her career as the new face (and body) of the top lingerie brand Peach John.
The latest in an impressive line of models for PJ, Baba follows the likes of Haruna Kojima, Miyuki Watanabe, Saeko, Elaiza Ikeda, and Minami Tanaka.
Baba is the model for GiRLS, a special line of lingerie launched last year within the Peach John collection that is aimed at woman aged from their late teens to early twenties. When GiRLS first launched, its official models included Yui Imaizumi -- shortly before she was taken out of ...
Miyuki Komatsu (小松みゆき or 小松美幸) was a star gravure idol in 1990s. She furthered her status by doing hair nude (full-frontal nude) shoots -- this is back during the hair nude boom -- and also made the transition into soft-core porn films and hard-core adult video -- yes, back when it really was just video. She has since continued to do acting in various kinds of roles on TV and in films, though her career started to tail off during the 2000s.
But this isn't a sad story about a faded star. Far from it, in many respects.
Komatsu has entered a whole new phase in her ...
Kana Koizumi is the gift that keeps on giving.
After she quit her gravure agency for unknown reasons, the idol took to her personal Twitter account to promote herself. One way she did this was by making newly provocative videos.
She seriously raised the stakes when she stripped off, revealing her massive breasts. She continued to upload such short nude videos to her Twitter account.
She then moved to YouTube, where she had an active account and made some topless videos where her modesty was nominally censored by precariously positioned images of bananas. Even so, YouTube was less than ...
Can you imagine the surprise if a 40-year-old female model were dating a 20-year-old male idol? But the other way round, it's just another day in the urban jungle. Especially if you're a celebrity.
Weekly tabloid Shukan Bunshun has scored a minor scoop with an article claiming that singer You (or Yu) Yokoyama of Kanjani Eight is sleeping with Sumire Yokono of NMB48.
Yokoyama, who is 39, was in Kyoto to perform in a play in early March. After the show was over one day, he returned to his hotel -- where he was soon apparently joined by a young woman.
This lady is, Shukan Bunshun reckons, ...
As someone who has cultivated a gyaru "bad girl" persona as a model and celebrity, the fact that Yuki Kimura (aka Yukipoyo) is mixed up in drugs should shock no one.
She started as a model for legendary gyaru fashion magazine egg and also appeared on The Bachelor Japan (Amazon Prime) and then became a regular on TV variety shows. But the Japanese-Filipino's career was almost derailed at the start of the year when it was (belatedly) reported that police in May 2020 had arrested a man she was with -- presumed to be her lover -- on drug charges. Yukipoyo was not charged or detained, but a ...
We promised. We delivered.
After blogging the exciting news that former gravure idol Ruu Yumemi is to make her adult video debut following a sex tape scandal, we then shared the full-frontal nude photos she did to promote the porn release.
And now, finally, we have some preview images to enjoy before the video (MIDE-894) comes out on April 13 from Moodyz.
From the previews, the porn seems to have some fine if unspectacular action. Inevitably, the director has chosen to make a lot out of her breasts, since Ruu Yumemi's I-cup bust is probably her best and most striking asset. (No prize for ...
