[edit] Biography

She even made her CD debut on a cheer song for the J2 soccer team, Albirex Niigata. She has also been a model for magazines and campaign, such as one for automobile safety for the elderly. Tsunku also commented that she was selected to join the group because she displayed great dancing skills and shined during the audition process.
