Biography

Fujimoto Miki joined the Hello! Project in 2001 as a soloist after unsuccessfully auditioning for the fourth generation Morning Musume auditions.

With five solo singles, plus an album and solo concert tour, Miki was a surprise addition into Morning Musume as part of its sixth generation. In 2007 she became the leader, before quitting a month later after a tabloid published pictures of her on a date with her boyfriend, comedian Shouji Tomoharu (庄司智春).

After over six months away from the public she released "Okitegami", a folk-song style single on April 23rd 2008, in competition with a version by fellow Up-Front singer Horiuchi Takao. Through extensive promotion it has slowly sold over 24,000 copies so far.

Miki married Tomoharu on July 3rd 2009, and the wedding ceremony took place in Hawaii.
