Q: What perfume do you use?
A: I was wearing “un” a lot during rehearsals for Saigo no Trouble, and it makes me feel a little sentimental now, so I’ve been wearing “deux” more recently! It’s fruity and more seasonal, and cheers me up!!!

Q: What food have you been into recently?
A: The salad shop that Mika-nee introduced me to recently. It’s perfect for girls: they even have “beauty salads”♡! Sooo delicious ♡. Ask Mika-nee for more deets. LOL
I love cooking too, so have been enjoying my own cuisine a lot too ^ ^

Q: What’s your go-to karaoke song?
A: I don’t go to karaoke. I’ve been relying on my vocal chords for over 20 years, so want to give them a rest when I’m not on stage.
