If you dig through the Artistes forum you'll find a couple of threads for similar models, like Megumi and Nemoto Harumi... They're pretty buxom as well.

Yeah, I've seen them as well. Too bad their, uh, roles seemed forgettable. Oh well, they'll always be the sweet bliss of idol DVD....

Yup. But from what I remember, they're locked now. Since they are gravure idols and have no relevance to Japanese dramas

Yeah, locked but not deleted... I didn't have the heart to do it. :beaten:

Anime film director Miyazaki Hayao (64) is one of just two Japanese to make Time magazine's latest list of the world's "most influential people," published on Sunday. Miyazaki was inluded in the category of "Artists and Entertainers," while Toyota vice president Katsuaki Watanabe, who will take over as company president in June, is among the "Builders and Titans." Miyazaki is one of the few Japanese to have won an Oscar - he won for the best animated feature in 2003 with "Sen to Chihiro no Kamikakushi" (Spirited Away). The film also took the Golden Bear award in the 2002 Berlin International Film Festival. • Another prominent director, Koreeda Hirokazu (42) has announced the star of his next project. "Hana Yorimo Naho" will have boy band V6 member Okada Shunichi (24) in the lead role. It will be the first period drama for Koreeda, whose film "Dare Mo Shiranai" (nobody Knows) was acclaimed at last year's Cannes Film Festival.

Only Megumi's thread seems be unlocked. I suppose she is one of the few gravure idols that have made a leap into the drama scene. No major roles so far, only supporting casts mainly.

It'd be okay in the General Discussion forums, right? I doubt I'd ever make one though...gravure idols are mostly meant to be looked at...not much discussion but general oogling.

More like she's the one who needs support.... :hehe: :hehe:

Has Megumi been in any supporting roles where she has to run a lot? Just asking, because you know, I like athletic women too....


:hehe:

You know, in the two roles that jump out to me (Pride, Last Christmas), she has been mostly wearing clothing that don't even show cleavage. And sadly, no Baywatch-esque running.

i'd settle for a phoebe cates' styled 'emerging from the pool.' :hehe:

oh, well, maybe you guys are too young to remember that movie. :doh:

Ooh, Phoebe Cates....I must have worn out the VHS tape watching that scene. I was so jealous of Judge Reinhold.

Not me. The classic Phoebe Cates pool scene is permanently in my memory bank... :D

Uh...she has an idol DVD that has her emerging from a pool in a bikini. No nudity unfortunately.

Are you referring to Megumi? Believe me, they would pop out before she has a chance to unclasp the top.... :hehe:

Yep :hehe: . There seems to be this current trend of covering vital areas of these idols with goopy stuff that dries and looks like a bikini...not that I would know from personal experience or anything....

Hollywood star Keanu Reeves (40), in town to promote his latest movie "Constantine" which opens on April 16, complained at a PR event yesterday that he wasn't able to enjoy the local sights. Co-star Rachel Weiss (34) said she'd been to see Tokyo's famous Tsukiji fish market, while director Francis Laurence (34) had been to see the fading cherry blossoms. Reeves, on the other hand, had been stuck in his hotel doing PR work. But it's his 7th trip, so no doubt he's seen plenty of Japan. • Also yesterday afternoon, across town, Hong Kong star Andy Lau (photo, 43) gave a packed press conference to promote his new movie "Infernal Affair 3." The original in the action series is to be re-made in Hollywood, with Leanardo DiCaprio and Matt Damon. • The funeral was held yesterday for producer Izukuri Yoshimi, who died Sunday at the age of 71. He was famous for such hugely popular TBS shows as "8-ji Da Yo! Zennin Shugo" and "Quiz Derby." The former starred comedy troupe the Drifters and was an institution. • Former Takarazuka star Saijo Mie (28) is engaged to nihon buyoka (traditional Japanese dancer) Hanayanagi Noriyuki (35). The actress will retire following their planned July wedding.
