Actually I was fascinated by Ms. Ueno's acting ability. I have purchased her photo-essay, "Juri First", which featured her in various bathing attire. Quick frankly I don't think she's gravure-material. With all due respect to gravure idols and artistes with steroid-enhanced mammilian glands, one's attention may be caught by photos of them in their full glory, but the fascination is over in seconds. Interesting roles and memorable performances, however, lasts.
you got a point there.....
but a little eye-candy is good... :naughty:
and the fascination might be over much longer than a few seconds, depending of course who the model is...
i give an example, Erika Sawajiri, started as a gravure idol, with lots and lots of pix on her thread and elsewhere, but she has recently gave an outstanding performance in 1 litre of tears drama....and i think her career looks very good and promising now, same with Ayase Haruka in Sekai no Chuushin de. She started out as a gravure idol, and well, she is full figured... :say_yes:
