TV Asahi, Ayaka Hironaka is at the peak of her popularity, and I’m wondering when she’ll go freelance.
Special Wide - All-out coverage! The "Newsy Autumn" of Female Announcers
A beautiful woman, as translucent as her pure white dress, was being photographed in the Mouri Garden in Roppongi Hills (Minato-ku). She is Ayaka Hironaka, 30, of TV Asahi, who is at the peak of her popularity for her frank talk.
In just one year since its inception, “Nobunaka Nannan?”, where she serves as MC with Nobu (41) of the comedy duo Chidori, has become a hit. The program was promoted to primetime just one year after its launch. This is the first time that a Terrestrial TV announcer has a regular program in Golden Time.
Speaking of Hironaka, the timing of her transition to freelancing is a matter of concern. She has not yet decided when, but I think the success of her first regular program will be the touchstone. The advertising value is estimated to be at least 20 million yen, and I hear that there are many sponsors who would like to use her.
However, it is said that there is an unsettled atmosphere within Teresa about Hironaka.
“It is said that the leaked photos of her drinking at home that were reported in September were leaked by a TV Asahi employee who was jealous of her.
In order to shake off the boring voices, is going freelance an option for her?
