DOM12

Tsuji Nozomi joined Hello!Project way back during the "golden years" period as a member of the 4th generation of headliners Morning Musume... and to be honest, next to the likes of Yossie and Rika-chan, I didn't really take to this precocious child and her partner in crime, Kago Ai. I mean really these two kids were supposed to be idols? Serious?? And she was... what? 12 years old or something?

Well...

...she 19 going on 20 now. And is it just me, or does she still look like a little girl? Thankfully she's gotten pretty tho no matter what standard you hold her to. And she's carved a up a nice solo career for herself (particularly since Kago got herself fired from Hello!Project; let's not go into that). Actually, I'm rather looking forward to what might be coming in the near future for Nono-chan.
