Hiromi Hayakawa (born Marla Hiromi Hayakawa Salas on October 19, 1982 Fukuoka, Japan) is a Mexican singer who began her music career as a contestant in the reality show La Academia.
She is the daughter of Alfonso Javier Hayakawa, who is of Japanese descent and a native of Torreón, Coahuila, and Lourdes Elsa Salas, from the city of Chihuahua. Her parents resided in Fukuoka for the reason being that her father studied Industrial Engineering there. They returned to Mexico when Hiromi was only two years old, and at the time, her mother was pregnant with her second child, Kaori.
When she attended a casting call for La Academia, Hiromi scored 9.7 points out of a possible ten points. Though, before competing in La Academia, Hiromi studied Industrial Engineering and Systems in ITESM, Coahuila. She decided to attend the casting for La Academia because, like msot people who attend the castings, she saw it as a chance of pursuing a musical career.
Hiromi left La Academia after the thirteenth concert; though she was later re-cast and became the sixth runner-up as the winner.
