Pretty Fashion Model Ayumi Sakai made an appearance on this day back in 2009, and I for one was totally entranced with her! Such a soft and incredibly feminine persona about her, it was a real surprise to me to find that she'd also made quite a name for herself in the fickle world of J-pop music! But at this time, it was all about taking the time to do some quick judgments on the Arashi Boys (and show off her cute lil' self while at it!)
AHAHAHA, this time around, with the "Beach Date" theme , everyone was having a hard time pleasing any of the guest judges, and even here, Ayumi is properly befuddled by the lack of good choices! Matsujun has jsut about given up, and even Sho has the look on his face like "What, ME Worry?" But it made for QUITE an interesting episode!
It was only after this that I went online and found Ayumi's impressive catalog of singles and began to discover this beautiful model's "other side"! Naturally, all her covers are stunning as they feature her gorgeous looks and model charm on each one, but what caught my ear was the sweet and gentle way she sang, exactly what you'd expect from her demeanor on Mannequin Five!
