Police have arrested a 48-year-old woman who worked as a part-time concierge at the apartment building where singer Masaharu Fukuyama lives, after she unlawfully entered his apartment.

According to police, the suspect, Mariko Miyamoto, was caught in the apartment by Fukuyama's wife, actress Kazue Fukiishi, when she returned home at around 8:30 p.m. on May 6, Fuji TV reported. Fukuyama was away from home at the time.

Police said Miyamoto told Fukiishi she had made a mistake, said sorry and quickly left the apartment in Tokyo's Shibuya Ward.

Miyamoto, who was identified through surveillance camera footage, was quoted by police as saying she used a duplicate key to enter the apartment. She said she had heard Fukuyama had a really fancy guitar and that she just wanted to see it.

She said she had heard Fukuyama had a really fancy guitar and that she just wanted to see it.

You have to give her props for originality though.

At least she didn't say "I was drunk I don't remember I was under stress my alter ego made me do it."

Crazy stalker. If the victim was a young woman the reaction would be outrage. This woman should be severely punished

Galileo, the character Fukuyama plays in the popular drama, would have found this interesting. 実に面白い。

Man, my wife got so upset when Fukuyama got married, despite saying for years that he never would. Many women in Japan were the same I expect.

Lol she had a duplicate key!! ??did the husband give her a key thinking the wife would be gone where is the rest of the story. I'm thinking the lady came up with the story to protect the husband so that she could continue being the mistress.
