Regular readers might remember Ayana Kobayashi, whose stunning gravure shoot we wrote about in 2019. It was notable because she did an alluring nude shoot with her butt and nipples on display despite being married (to a comedian).
She has since released a couple of DVDs.
It's perhaps because she's a bit of an outsider -- someone who came to mainstream gravure a bit late and already married with a child -- that she's freer to say certain things.
Now in her early thirties, Kobayashi recently made headlines with a blog entry in which she described her own experience with sexual ...
We have written before about multilingual actress and model Manami Shindo, who has a penchant for doing nude shoots.
She also did nude sex scenes in 2022 in the movie Far Away, Further Away.
The 31-year-old who can speak five languages has followed this up with another erotic role in the movie Manji, which involves nude lesbian sex scenes with the actress Noriko Kohara.
Who is Noriko Kohara, we hear you ask? Well, she's actually none other than Noriko Kijima under a different name. Kijima had a gravure career in the 2000s in which she did nude shoots (which got her featured in our ...
One of the most famous jukujo in the entertainment world is hitting a landmark age and, to celebrate, has released a new photo book that shows she's as hot as ever.
Voluptuous celebrity Sayaka Isoyama, who isn't really famous for anything other than her curves and being on TV, turned 40 yesterday.
The oddly named and more is her first photo book in six years, and may well be her last. She said at a promo event over the weekend that she is considering retiring from gravure, though she said she would retire six years ago after getting married.
Well, guys should be reassured that the comely ...
When top gravure idol Tomomi Morisaki announced her long-rumored retirement, there was speculation about the exact reasons. Was she leaving the entertainment industry for good? Now that she was in her thirties, was she just quitting while she was ahead and before the glamor model offers dried up? Did she want to focus on her general TV celebrity gigs?
It seems that the answer was that classic Japanese entertainer one: romance and a family.
Now, just before the release of her retirement DVD and Blu-ray, comes news reports that the hottie is "seriously dating" a baseball player, Shota ...
If you've ever stayed at a traditional Japanese inn, or ryokan, especially a somewhat smaller one, you have likely encountered the women who run them, known as the okami (meaning proprietress, not to be confused with okami -- pronounced with a longer oh -- that means wolf).
Though younger women are often busy doing many of the tasks, a slightly older woman is usually in charge. Like the mama-san who runs a hostess club, she's a more mature yet still alluring prospect.
Well, we are likely romanticizing things because the gap between reality and fantasy gets misty here: ryokan ladies are the ...
Alluring jukujo gradol Tomomi Morisaki has previously shown off her naked butt and nipples. What more could she have to show her fans?
Not much, it seems, because she has announced her "retirement release."
There was some confusion about this, perhaps an indication of behind-the-scenes shenanigans or uncertainty on the idol's part. In July, Morisaki held an event to mark the release of her 22nd DVD and denied she was retiring from gravure as had been misreported.
Either way, it appears the timing was right now in the autumn. Her 23rd image DVD and Blu-ray, suitably titled Lady Climax, is ...
Last year, police in Hong Kong cracked down on foreign sex workers, arresting several women including former Japanese porn star Noa Aizawa.
It's well known that active and former adult video performers do sex work. It can be especially lucrative to engage in such work outside Japan, particularly other parts of Asia, where JAV is immensely popular. If your career is flagging in Japan or you want a change of pace, you can enjoy a good lifestyle with affluent clients abroad.
It seems that situation in Hong Kong is much the same, with media reporting the arrest on September 5 of 11 members of a ...
The actor Kyoko Fukada is now 40 years old but just as hot as ever, as her cover shoot for weekly magazine Friday amply demonstrates.
Known for her curvy beach body that she was happy to show off even as she entered her thirties, Kyoko Fukada was long a favorite of gravure magazines and this marks her first such shoot like this in some time.
Though usually the kind of celebrity you would expect to see with a smile on her face, Fukada was diagnosed with adjustment disorder in 2021 and took a break from work for several months. She's now firmly back in the public eye and enjoying quite a ...
There are jukujo mature porn stars. And then there's Yuko Ogasawara (小笠原裕子).
The 88-year-old is probably the world's oldest porn performer.
We found a couple of recently published longish interviews with her on Shueisha Online.
The obvious questions to start with are: When and why did she begin performing?
Her husband died when she was 59 and she then entered the world of snack bars, working as a "mama" as one bar for seven years from the age of 61. Even after giving that up in 68, it was still several years until she entered the adult video industry.
She spent the ...
It's no secret that the Tokyo Kinky team has a thing for Mariya Nagao.
The former AKB48 hottie now works as a model, actress, and general TV celebrity.
And though it's hardly a surprise that a woman of her age, beauty, and social opportunities would not have lovers, we can't help but feel a bit peeved and sad at the news that broke recently about her new boyfriend.
Apparently, Mariyagi is in a relationship with a former Kabukicho host, having met through a mutual friend.
Fresh off releasing a ravishing photo book earlier this year, she's been spotted by weekly tabloid Shukan Bunshun in ...
