Not a brand, an acronym.

Nessie, is it customary for her name to be in all caps when put in to English? Y'know, like some entertainment person's eccentricity?

Let's be honest, what is she going to look like when she's around 40 ? Not too hot I guess.

The all caps thing is irritating, but it's supposed to distinguish the famous from the merely spelling their name in English. Of course if the name is common enough this is going to only work once. There is a singer by the same name, I think she spells here name with all lowercase, "megumi." I guess the next famous Megumi will have to be MeGuMi. It's like junior high school all over again.
Then there is Erika Sawajiri whose rockin' alter ego is ERIKA. How terribly clever.

They are hoping for a shihtzu, but a chihuahua is also welcome.

Dollars to donuts she planned it to be an accident, so they'd have to get hitched.
I reckon a bikini model would be kinda wary about something like that happening, otherwise.
At any rate, hope they are happy together and have a healthy happy kid and all that.

That smile is creepy. Perhaps she looks better in other photos. I heard the other day the thing in Japan now is that wife + husband stay together till the kid is out of highschool or college then they divorce.

"Stands out" indeed. Look at idol videos these days. What do see? A big rack. Big yams = lots of clam$. I doubt people are interested in seeing idols reciting Shakespeare or doing Trig.
