Footage of Maho Yamaguchi stripping off for comeback photo book shoot
After her sexual assault and the subsequent scandal that engulfed the NGT48 management in late 2018, Maho Yamaguchi left the idol group under a cloud of trauma and fury. She has, however, decided to return to the entertainment and idol world — but on her own terms.
As we reported last month, this involves a rather surprisingly provocative photo book. Given her history of assault, you might expect Maho to tone down the sexualization of her image. But it seems she is fine with that as long as she has management she can trust.
To further tantalize fans, now behind-the-scenes footage has emerged showing Maho delicately stripping off during the shoot.
This is no leak. It was shared by Maho Yamaguchi herself on Twitter and the short video has been viewed, at time of writing, almost 300,000 times.
The photo book, “present,” goes on sale from September 17th.
Our apologies for the poor quality of the screengrabs in this post. We hope to publish a post with decent scans and images from the photo book in due course.
