Nerima, Tokyo, Japan (1999 – present)
Aya Ueto (上戸 彩, Ueto Aya), born September 14, 1985, in Nerima, Tokyo, Japan, is a Japanese actress, singer and model. She was discovered when she participated in the 7th All-Japan National Young Beauty Contest, where she won the Judges’ Special Choice Prize. Her big break came when she was cast as Nao Tsurumoto, a student suffering from gender identity disorder, in the sixth series of the TBS drama “3 nen B gumi Kinpachi-sensei”. Ueto’s critically-acclaimed performance led to several leading roles in dramas and TV endorsements, eventually establishing her as one of Japan’s most recognizable faces. She has also ventured onto the big screen in famed film director Ryuhei Kitamura’s 2003 blockbuster Azumi and its sequel, Azumi 2: Death or Love in 2005.
Ueto made her singing debut in 1999 with the girl group Z-1. In 2002, after their disbandment, she debuted as a solo singer under the label Pony Canyon, with the single “Pureness”. To date she has released 16 singles and 5 studio albums, all of which have entered the Top20.
As one of Japan’s most ubiquitous celebrity endorsers, Ueto constantly appears on billboards, shop windows and trains, advertising for companies such as Fujifilm, Lotte, Ōtsuka Seiyaku and SoftBank. In 2005, Ueto topped the commercial popularity rankings as the most popular female star and sixth overall. In 2008, she was crowned CM queen for the second time, raking in a significant 360 million yen for her 8 advertisement contracts.
