芦田愛菜

When I first saw this little girl on TV, she was already a big hit in Japan. Like everyone else, I was drawn by her innocence, cuteness and her natural and adorable smile. At such a young age, she was already a polished actress and at every variety program appearance, she always manages to brighten up the atmosphere.

Since her debut single,  however, the natural smile seems to have faded. Weariness started to appear on her face especially when the attention is not on her and dark rings can be seen beneath her eyes. The only thing I can think of after her song on 笑っていいとも was poor thing…

Like what Simon Cowell once said to a young aspiring American Idol contestant, I hope she doesn’t turn into another Michael Jackson.
