Miyu Uehara lusting for ice cream

TOKYO —

Has “talento” Miyu Uehara, 22, given up her poor-man’s act? This week, she played the role of “manager for a day” at luxury ice cream brand Patiscream’s Printemps Ginza store.  She rode on a wave of notoriety for her 10 siblings and impoverished upbringing, but on this day she pushed cups of ice cream that cost 350 yen each.

Even so, Uehara said she had never been to Ginza for anything but work, explaining “I don’t really fit here in Ginza. It smells too much like rich people. Mmm, I wonder what I should do.. this ice cream is the best!”

Sources say this was Uehara’s first time working at a PR event for a luxury brand product. Uehara went on talking about her private life as normal. “Yesterday I bought two watermelon popsicles for 100 yen each. At home, my mother watered down the Calpis and froze it into dessert for us, but it was mostly water.”

    Popsicles are fine, and can easily be made of fruit juice, which is healthy, but I would suggest buying an ice-cream maker. They're not expensive, and the ice-cream is good.

    good to see JT has abandoned the journalistic approach and is also taking the piss out of these people now.

    is it just me or do none of these sentences mean anything taken together...i doubt she said this, as most 'talento's' have their every word scripted, so that must mean her agency is as stupid as she is
