Newbie Japanese porn star Momona Koibuchi (恋渕ももな) made her debut in April last year and is currently affiliated with SOD Star. In a recent two-part interview with Bunshun, the busty performer describes her entry into the industry. After graduating high school, the 23-year-old worked as a civil servant dealing with tax and social health insurance. But her experience of regular sexual harassment at work during this time led, she claims, her to pivot into a whole different career in adult video. Her male colleagues would ask her about her bra size on a daily basis, or forcibly kissed ...

Happy New Year to all our readers. We begin 2023 with some pleasant news -- or perhaps disappointing tiding to certain fans. According to news reports, the prominent Japanese porn star Suzume Mino is to marry the comedian Akihiro Tabuchi. Tabuchi (37), of the comedy duo Indians, will apparently tie the knot with Suzume Mino some time during 2023, according to news reports on January 1. Their courtship is not news per se. It emerged in the summer that the two were dating, as reported on this blog. Mino is now 26. She made her debut in 2019 and is wildly popular for her G-cup breasts. We ...

Not satisfied with the recent rush of gravure idols' photo books? Even the ones like Minami Yamada's that are semi-nude? Then you need something more reliable. Minamo burst into our lives in 2021 when she made the switch from a brief stint in gravure (where she worked as Shizuku Taiyo from 2019) to porn, and hasn't looked back since. One of the most popular adult video performers working in the industry today, she is currently attacked to porn production company T-Powers continues to release JAV titles (we count something like twice as many releases in 2022 as her debut year). Her first ...

We love parody -- and so does both the Japanese adult toys industry and the porn industry. But when does spoofing go too far? The comedian/YouTuber Chikuwa, who has over 180,000 subscribers to her YouTube channel, was recently forced to apologize after she mocked the ex-porn star Kirara Asuka about having plastic surgery. The controversy started on November 14, when Chikuwa posted a video in which she did an impression of Kirara Asuka. The former adult video idol, however, was less than amused, and tweeted that she was beginning legal action. Chikuwa then responded with an apology video ...

The former idol Riona Yuki (結城りおな) who made TV appearances has launched an adult video career, changing her professional name to Alice Shinomiya (四宮ありす). Netizens are now scrambling to figure out if they ever caught her on TV. Screen grabs indicate that she did appear on certain shows, but did she leave much of an impression? (Japanese TV shows are notoriously overcrowded with celebrities all competing for attention.) Yuki reportedly belonged to Amuse, a major management agency for music idols and celebrities. It is a strange case that someone who was a guest on ...

Hong Kong have cracked down on foreign sex workers, arresting numerous women on October 17. According to local news reports, they included the former Japanese porn star Noa Aizawa (愛沢のあ), who has been working as a prostitute from a hotel in the city. Police have targeted a prostitution ring that was promoting Aizawa's services as a sex worker on social media by using her past adult videos as promotional material. Along with Aizawa, another woman arrested at the hotel was from Thailand. They both entered Hong Kong on travel visas. In all, 16 women were arrested in a series of ...

A few weeks ago, we reported on the engagement and pregnancy of ex-porn star Nanami Kawakami. Being an adult video star is hard enough with the long shoots, physical pressures, and social stigma, but the job also really affects your ability to lead a regular life outside of work. This includes, of course, settling down with a special someone -- if that's your choice -- and perhaps even having kids. Anri Sakaguchi, whose colorful life has encompassed a stint in AV, has recently announced her divorce after just two months of marriage. News reports last year said that former JAV star Nao ...

We mentioned earlier this month about the long-awaited follow-up adult video release by Yotsuha Kominato (Rikako Inoue), the former Fairies music idol. The singer's second AV (1stars00715), which sees Kominato co-star with top male porn performer Shimiken for one of the sexual encounters, comes in the wake of a hugely publicized porn debut in June. Produced and released again by SODstar, the JAV title has now hit the market and the first screen grabs indicate that her slender, pale-skinned body is working overtime once more. If these images entice you, put some yen down on the table to buy ...

One of the biggest porn debuts of the year was by former Fairies idol Rikako Inoue, now performing as Yotsuha Kominato. Her highly anticipated first adult release came out in the summer and was a hit, thanks to a major marketing splash laid out by Soft on Demand. Now comes the follow-up. Clocking in at a hefty 261 minutes (even longer than her debut) for the digital version, her second release (also from SODstar) is available in Japan from September 20 (code 1stars00715) and features 4K-quality action with four sexual encounters. The physical release on DVD and Blu-ray is a little shorter ...
