nihongo|Aya Sugimoto|杉本 彩|Sugimoto Aya|July 19, 1968 - is a Japanese singer, model, actress, dancer, and erotic novel author from Kyoto.

Career

In early 2003, Sugimoto's figure led her to be chosen as the spokeswoman for B-Up Drops, or Bust Up Drops. A candy made from vegetables, B-Up Drops were promoted as a dietary supplement which would help increase and maintain a woman's bustline. Then 34, Sugimoto was quoted in the ad as claiming, "My boobs are so big, it's hard to maintain the right shape... Being my age, I knew I had to do something about it. And that's when I started using B-Up Drops."

She is best known in Japan for her J-Pop career (#1 Singles "Usagi" , "Boys" and "Gorgeous") and movie career. Among the many roles she has played, one of her better known is that of Queen Beryl in the 2003-2004 TV series "Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon".

In July 2003, Sugimoto went through a high-profile divorce from her husband of 11 years. Claiming that there was not enough sex in her marriage, the term "sexless divorce" became a catch-phrase among frustrated wives in Japan. Sugimoto said, "I didn't think it was such a big deal. I actually thought that it was a healthier reason for wanting out than a lot of other mud-dragging type of divorces."

After the notoriety she gained from the publicity surrounding the divorce, Sugimoto was one of the outspoken guests on the Friday late-night TV Tokyo talk show, "Yearnings of the Goddess". She later wrote a book which became a major hit. In 2004, she starred in director Takashi Ishii's remake of Oniroku Dan's S&M novel, "Flower and Snake". [cite web |url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0388098/|title="Hana to hebi" (2004)|accessdate=2007-05-24|language=English|work=IMDB] Working with bondage master Go Arisue, she reprised the role first played by Naomi Tani in director Masaru Konuma's version of the novel, "Flower and Snake" (1974).

In September 2008, Sugimoto became the first Japanese model in PETA's international nude anti-fur campaign. [ [http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20080917/ts_afp/entertainmentfilmjapananimallifestyle_080917075943 Yahoo News] ]
