We recently reported on the porn debut of name-changing idol Sarina Toyama, aka Sarina Haru, and now working in JAV as Meisa Nishimoto. Apparently still an active member of the idol group Once a Chance (which just celebrated its first live music event), Nishimoto is also a porn star, a new career that she launched with a full-frontal nude photo shoot a few weeks ago. Soon after, we got confirmation of her first release (STARSBD-462), which comes out via SOD Star later in October. Now we finally have some proper preview pictures to share.

She goes by many names and her career just took a whole new turn. Previous active since 2020 as a music idol in such groups as KissBee and Once a Chance under the names Sarina Toyama (外山さりな) and Sarina Haru (春さりな), she has switched to gravure -- and yet another name, Meisa Nishimoto (西元めいさ).

The 180-minute release (MIFD00140) comes ...

Another mainstream idol group has had to jettison one of its members after she was found to be pursuing a secret porn career. Nijiiro no Hiko Shojo (虹色の飛行少女) is a seven-member group active since 2018. Kana Usami (宇佐美花菜), who played the idol "character" Hana Midorisawa in the group, was fired on February 27 and replaced.

It's one of the Japanese entertainment world's worst-kept secrets that minor music and gravure idols moonlight as prostitutes for various kinds of sex shops or services. Sometimes this precedes their more mainstream bikini modeling careers; sometimes it comes after, when they get too "old" to attract offers of photo books and magazine shoots.
