We wrote a few weeks ago about the exciting news that music idol Maki Goto is making a comeback (after taking a break to get married and have two kids -- and allegedly having an affair).
The former Morning Musume member has relaunched her music career with live concerts, and is building her profile and fandom again through an active YouTube output.
Even better, she's releasing a photo book, ramus, on November 29 from Kodansha. It's her first in 10 years.
And from the previews we've seen, ramus clearly harks back to her time as a girl-next-door cutie who once did lingerie shoots and a ...
We recently wrote about Urara Uraraka's new "maternity nude" photo book, citing the precedent for such pregnancy shoots in Japan among celebrities and idols. One of the examples we mentioned was Angelica Michibata, who posed for a fairly modest (technically non-nude) one in 2018.
Now Angelica Michibata is back in the news with reports that she has divorced her husband, whom she married in late 2017 after she fell pregnant.
This is a big deal only because it would seem to bring to an end an unfortunate -- to say the least -- chapter of her life in which her ex-husband was arrested for ...
The Lower House election in Japan was held on Sunday -- yes, Halloween. The populace elected a bunch of ghouls and monsters to represent them.
One person who failed in their first bid to win a seat was the former gravure idol Chisato Morishita. Now aged 40 and still looking great, Morishita was trying to get elected in Miyagi as a candidate backed by the conservative LDP (who won the election overall). She got 61,410 votes (the ultimate winner got 81,033 votes, securing their ninth continuous term).
As we reported earlier in the year, she has been campaigning since the spring. (In Japan, ...
It's been a long, long wait, but one of our all-time favorites idols is back. Sure, she's older and wiser. Yet boy, does she still look great.
Former Morning Musume idol Maki Goto has been relatively quiet these past years, though launched a YouTube account in April 2020. The content of the videos is mostly pretty banal (trying food, makeup tips, etc.), but it was the first main indication that she was making a comeback. What has she been doing in the time since she left Morning Musume? In 2015, she married and started a family. She now has two children, though she admitted to having had an ...
She's back. And though in the interim, there have been thousands of Japanese gravure and music idols to keep us more than entertained, we didn't realize how much we missed the slinky charms of former SDN48 idol Serina (芹那) until we saw her again.
And we see a lot of her this time.
Since in her first photo book release in 10 years, Serina has gone semi-nude -- showing off her more mature and experienced, 36-year-old body.
She graduated SDN48 -- remember, the sexier version of AKB48? -- way back in 2012, after which we heard little about her.
Now she's making a jukujo comeback with a ...
One of the biggest hits on Netflix right now is the South Korean drama series Squid Game, a high-concept story about a series of games in which the losers die. It's a fun TV show and well worth watching.
But like other viewers, we were particularly interested in the ladies. Jung Ho-yeon is stunning, but we also liked 45-year-old actress Kim Joo-ryung, especially her sex scene.
In one episode, Kim Joo-ryung (sometimes credited as Kim Joo-ryoung) fucks a man in a restroom stall, straddling him while he sits on the toilet seat. All while holding a lit cigarette. Now that's hardcore.
We don't ...
There's that cliche about aging like a fine wine but for some women, it really is true.
A model like Nana Eikura, for instance, we can remember from her early career when she was a teenaged model. Cute, for sure, but she is way hotter now that she is a married young mother in her thirties.
Taking things (quite) a bit further (chronologically speaking), we have just found out that Narimi Arimori (有森也実) is to release her first photo book in 19 years.
At the ripe age of 53, the actor poses in lingerie for her fourth photo book, "prayer," which comes out in Japan on October 22.
We ...
Some of us get more conservative the older we get. Misumi Shiochi gets nuder the older she gets.
The 39-year-old jukujo and former TV announcer has now firmly settled into her role in the gravure industry as the current ara-four ("around 40") lady of the moment that men want to sleep with, perhaps especially if they are the same age.
Her latest photo shoot shows off her G-cup breasts (though without actually showing off her nipples) and gives us some great views on her ass and nude back.
The pictures are highlights from her new photo book, "Nocturne," which came out in Japan on September ...
We are late to write about this but Japanese media reported in August that retired porn star Nao Oikawa (及川奈央) had divorced her husband of five years.
She married the man, who is six years her senior, in December 2016 but announced in early August that she had divorced in the spring.
Oikawa was a top adult video performer from 2000 to 2004. Since leaving JAV and now aged 40, she has carved out a modest second career as a "regular" actor, appearing in a major NHK period drama, among various other credits.
Fans have called for her return to the industry, especially now that she is ...
She's certainly proved that a woman's career as a model and "idol" can really come into its own in her thirties.
After releasing a bestselling photo book in late 2019, Minami Tanaka became the face of leading Japanese lingerie brand Peach John.
That quickly yielded some stunning results, as we reported about earlier in the year.
But that was just the appetizer, it seems, since 34-year-old Minami's latest shoot for Peach John sees her strip off and go (almost, very almost completely) nude.
Wearing a short, see-through panty girdle, she is posed with the camera with her nude butt and back ...
