Fumie Hosokawa (細川ふみえ, born 2 September 1971) is a Japanese actress, singer, and model. She was born in the Aomori prefecture, Tanabe; brought up in the Hiroshima prefecture Etajima until the age of 4; after which she moved to Hawaii, United States for 1 year to attend school there.

She started posing for magazines in December 1990 as a bikini model. Soon afterwards she started singing and acting in films. She is less famous for her acting and singing, however, than for her curvaceous body. Although she is not as large now, at one time she boasted a 94 cm bustline, quite large at the time for models in Japan.

She is 163 cm (5'4") tall. Her official website charts her changing figure over time. In 1990 she was 94-60-90cm (37-24-35 inches). In 2006 she is 90-59-87cm (35-23-34 inches). She has returned to modelling and has released two gravure DVDs in 2006.

She is considered to have been on the forefront on the large bust bikini model craze in Japan. Her contemporaries were Mirei Kuroda and Yuko Aoki. Critics of the industry, however, generally consider Fumie to the the cutest of all, and certainly the most famous of her day.
