She has a good shot at being Best Jeanist 2009!

I'd say its a 2-way race between her and Anne.

She's actually quite creative and makes a lot of her own clothes.

Despite her unusual dreams I think she she seems a very interesting and vivacious woman who will help bring a much needed breath of fresh air into the Japanese political establishment.

We are sure to have great entertainment soon thanks to Miyuki Hatoyama. It all started with the alien story and will go on. Every move she makes will be illustrated well by media and JT will pick these news items faithfully for us.

dunno, she has a face a bit like a mouldy prune.

i strongly disagree.. she's flashy, but not fashionable.

...would outshine the wives of other world leaders such as Carla Bruni-Sarkozy, the wife of French President Nicolas Sarkozy.

That statement alone should be prove-positive she's been abducted by aliens from Venus.

Mino is a jerk. His shows are the worst thing on the tube. But then again, the tube here is garbage. Only good shows are the cooking shows.

the politician’s tie, shirt and shoes had all been selected by his wife

What? She doesn't choose his underpants? What kind of first lady is she anyhow?

I haven't seen pics, but she was in the Takarazuka revue for 5 years, apparently. Quite the showy group there, grand and elaborate costumes each day....

Mino Monta is the only human that has beef jerky for skin.

Miyuki is kooky and a corker. But fashionable? That's stretching it a bit.

Isn't that already 90% of commercial Japanese TV?

A dangerous, pompous, self-satisfied jerk at that.
