Utada Hikaru In Front Of A Mario Cloud
Five years ago, singing sensation and my high school "kohai" Hikaru Utada married her photographer, Kazuaki Kiriya, at the age of 19. Kiriya was 35 and everyone was pretty shocked. Well, the two just announced that their getting divorced.
I love this girl, for three reasons:
1. She has an awesome voice, and had record-breaking sales despite being cutely awkward on stage.
2. In my brother's high school yearbook, she wrote: "Your sister is so pretty!" I will never forget that.
3. In this picture, she's posing in front of a Mario Cloud.
You forgot reason number 4 & 5:
4. In this picture, she's posing in front of a Mario Cloud.
5. In this picture, she's posing in front of a Mario Cloud.

I went to her concert last summer in Japan and she was pretty awesome! I remember thinking "wow she's really cute! too bad she's married..."
well now she's available again! ;)

That's pretty sad. I always route for celebrities romances to last. Thanks for sharing this tidbit.

I first heard of her after I played "Kingdom Hearts" and went looking for the person who sang "Simple and Clean", beautiful song. I fell for her big time, really lovely.

She must be really sad. I prefer her when she is happy and smiling like the time she saw her own impersonator on TV. That was great.
