Kyoko graduated from cutesy 80s teen-idoldom and to the surprise of everyone, turned into an acclaimed movie actress. Her performances in Tokyo Sonata and Hanging Garden were great. I'd recommend both films for people who don't think Japanese films are good. Seiko... well, um... the duet she did in 1990 with Donnie Wahlberg is really not to be missed, no really lol

She always came across as a humourless, ruthless Madonna-like careerist IMO. Give me Kyoko anyday.

Foundation is a cause for wrinkles. Japanese women wear too much foundation.

Assume for the sake of argument that both of those statements are true. Still, In my observation, westerners of both sexes get wrinkles well before Japanese women do.

Yep. The wife often gets mistaken for being 10 years younger than she is.

Amazing what plastic surgery can do, isn't it?

Asian ladies almost always age very well. A shame we only have a mini pic here to go with the story.

I remember seeing Kyoko in the early 90's. She gave me some interesting thoughts. @_@

papa - Can you give us any evidence that Seiko had plastic surgery?

Having never seen them together, I was surprised that Seiko is the taller of them. I've always thought she was quite slight of stature.

Evidence? You want doctor's receipts? It's not something most celebs go on tv and talk about you know. There has been plenty of gossip among Japanese for many many years about Seiko-chan and plastic surgery - just google it and look for yourself. The running joke is every time she goes to America she comes back with a different face.
If you can believe this

without the help of a scalpel, then God bless you.
Not that I care to be honest... She looks great

Papasmurf is correct. It's common knowledge that she has had plenty of work.
The only people who can keep a straight face and say Seiko's looks are natural are people who have less successful cosmetic surgery.

LOL. And they re-apply foundation and make up every 4 hours....

I don't think the average J ladies age well....they care too much about being slim than being healthy. I see at the gym they look so horrible naked. I wonder how men find them so attractive...

That is true.

Doesn't costar need a hyphen in there? Just seems a bit strange to read the headline, although I could be wrong.
