Hahahaha, I knew it'll get you riled up! Actually, I got a little board in this meeting here and wanted to torment you a little, ren! Yeah, I don't think she is this far in her pregnacy yet. Hell, the girl just got married and THOSE photos haven't even came out yet. You are right, ren, this is a fake. If you noticed the head is a lot bigger than the arm in relation. _________________

Hirosue Ryoko shoots self in foot with shotgun wedding
By Ryann Connell
Staff Writer

Ryoko Hirosue announces here marriage.Thanks to Japan's Confucian past,
nastier types tend to view women marrying only after falling pregnant as
little short of sluts.
So their shock was enormous last week when actress Ryoko Hirosue, who has
virtually grown up in front of the cameras and made a lucrative career out
of her virginal image, announced she was marrying to do the right thing by
the child she is bearing.
And, as Shukan Jitsuwa (1/1) shows, the knives have already been sharpened
for Hirosue.
"She's totally lacking the ability to plan in advance. How can her agency
ever trust her?" a Tokyo talent agency insider asks rhetorically in Shukan
Jitsuwa. "She can't read what's about to happen. That's why she runs wild,
goes through any number of guys and now finds herself pregnant."
Noting that some are already calling for Hirosue to retire from the
entertainment world, a sports newspaper hack covering the celebrity beat
says that marriage and pregnancy threaten Hirosue's career.
"She promised (when dropping out of posh Waseda University in October) that
she was going to concentrate on her acting career, so she should never have
let herself get pregnant. She's really betrayed her fans," the hack tells
Shukan Jitsuwa. "Marriage and motherhood are part and parcel of the careers
of entertainers, so agencies usually help out with the planning. But this
unexpected pregnancy has got her agency worried, too. Hirosue's reputation
for acting is fairly good and people were just starting to say that her time
was about to come."
Compounding matters for the 23-year-old actress who's been a fixture on
Japan's TVs since the mid-'90s, her model boyfriend Takahiro Okazawa has a
reputation that couldn't be further from Hirosue's squeaky clean image.
Okazawa is an amateur boxer once apparently ranked among the toughest
streetfighters in Shibuya, Tokyo's teen Mecca.
He has been seeing Hirosue on and off for about the past two years. Though
now burdened with the double responsibilities of fatherhood and marriage,
his status as "Hirosue's husband" could give his fledgling modeling career
the shot in the arm it needed.
"He's suddenly become famous. Sure, he's tall, but I'd guess his current
annual salary would only be in the 4 million yen to 5 million yen range.
He's not even in the same class as Hirosue, who wouldn't even consider
appearing in a TV ad for less than 10 million yen," an entertainment beat
reporter tells Shukan Bunshun (12/25).
Hirosue appears doomed to join the ranks of so many female Japanese
celebrities for whom motherhood has meant an end to their most profitable
years.
"Hirosue always said she wanted to marry before turning 25. Well, her wish
has come true. But, even if she does come back after giving birth, she'll
never reach the heights she could have," the reporter tells Shukan Bunshun.
"Who'll ever forget she almost caused a riot when she first turned up for
class at Waseda University? And, even though she struggled to keep up with
her classes, she stuck it out until at least October this year. But now
she's dropped out of college and her career is at the crossroads, she'll
always be known for only doing things in half-measures."
Shukan Jitsuwa is even more scathing, pointing out how Hirosue will forever
be tainted for getting pregnant out of wedlock, making it unlikely she will
pick up the tattered threads of her career after having the baby due in May
next year.
"If she retires now," a tabloid TV insider tells Shukan Jitsuwa, "the bad
image she's made for herself with the shotgun marriage will stay with her
forever. http://www.nt2099.com/J-ENT/index2.html
