Erotic Queen Finds True Love | December 12, 2008 |
 Actress Sugimoto Aya (40) has a new love in her life, according to today's issue of weekly magazine "Friday." The so-called "Erotic Queen" of the showbiz world has ramped up that image in the five years since her 11-year marriage to a music producer came to an end. She described her failed marriage as "sexless," saying that her ideal relationship was that of "Latin lovers." Known also as an excellent cook, she regularly makes comments like, "Since I was young, I've always made a great effort when cooking...and in bed." She has published an erotic novel and recipe book, and became quite an expert at ballroom dancing thanks to her participation on a popular NTV variety show. She spoke to Friday about her relationship with the 45-year-old company president. She gave away no details, saying only that they have been dating for about a year.
 Lest Japan Zone be accused of only pandering to its male audience, here's a story about a mature male hunk. Actor Takahashi Katsunori (43) has published a book revealing how he got himself buffed up in just three weeks. The motivation was the recently released big-screen adaptation of his TV drama "Tokumei Kakaricho - Tadano Hitoshi," in which he plays a kind of salaryman version of James Bond. The book promises to show other middle-aged men how to get the kind of body that makes Tadano Hitoshi such a hit with the ladies every week. The late-night show - adapted from a manga - has been running on TV Asahi since 2003 and is renowned for its bed scenes, going so far as to often feature real porn actresses.
