Kyoko Fukada: Many recent happenings....
Only problem with the top twenty lists is that they usually overlook most of my huge faves from yesteryear as the majority of them don't seem to be so active these days. Kyoko though is an exception as the amount of activities she does is still more than most other actresses/Idols that are ten or more years younger. Age is creeping up on one of everyone's eternal darlings and that could be a good term for Kyoko as she reached the age of 35 on November 2nd, this year marked her 20th anniversary as an actress.
Kyoko seems to have released more photobooks since she turned thirty than the did in the entire decade before that milestone, even at her advanced age(!) she still blows away 99% of the women in the world. Kyoko will be releasing yet another PB and that will be coming out on December 20th, title for it will be "Palpito" and above are two pics from it. Pics for the book were shot in Sicily and hers's a few more of them from the PB.
Bet we'll be seeing her in many mags these next few weeks and hopefully an event for the PB too as she seldom ever has one for her books. That doesn't mean Kyoko doesn't appear often in public as she does and have two appearances for this post. On November 22nd Kyoko was at the 'White Kitte' tree lighting ceremony in Marunochi at the JP Tower. The tree is the largest indoor one in Japan as it's almost 48 feet high and it'll be lit up until the 25th.
Before the second round of pics from an event have a few mag spreads and this first one is brand new. Doesn't look like it's promoting the upcoming PB but instead her 2018 calendar, this superb set is from the November 14th edition of Flash.
Kyoko is someone who doesn't appear in as many mags as you would think, naturally she has but it's taken almost two decades for all of them to become a respectable number. Have two more of them for today with this set being from the August 17th issue of Shukan Gendai.
Already posted this final spread some months ago that features Kyoko as the cover girl for the June issue of Voce but there's a reason for posting it again.
That's because today Kyoko was at the '2017 Voce Cosmetics Awards' show, she's been honored a few times in the past at the event. This year she won the award for Most Beautiful Face and no arguments from me on that as even at 35 years in age Kyoko is still a stunning woman. Plenty of remarkable pics from today's ceremony and after them you can check out a video of her at the ceremony receiving the award.
She is unreal. Thanks to you I probably would have never known about her. When it comes to Jdramas, I usually stick to watching whatever my favorite actresses appear in, so I don't end up finding too many new actresses to follow with my watching habits.
ReplyDeleteUnreal is a good word, recall an even better word you used to describe Haruna Kojima one time which was so on the money. Kyoko's dramas since 2013 have just been so-so but can't go wrong with most of the ones she appeared in from 2001-10 with 'SOS' possibly being my fave.
