NorikoSakai On the Run with Noriko Sakai

Noriko Sakai, the Japanese singer and actress with a girl-next-door image, is a huge star in Japan, China, Taiwan and of course here in Hong Kong. Noriko has made headlines over the past few weeks by being on the run in Japan from the law for alleged drug charges, proving that Jill Vidal wasn’t the only one that had a hard time with drugs in Japan.

Noriko kicked off her music career in 1987 with her first single at the age of 16, bringing comparisons to being the Asian Kylie Minogue. The biggest selling song of her career was 1995′s Aoi Usagi. She’s starred in TV shows and her coolest role was in Ju-On 2 (The Grudge)

Her real life drama continues…as do the photos of Noriko below:
