Yuki Uchida, who has been in show business for 30 years and is attracting attention for her unchanged beauty that belies her 47 years of age, plays a popular female news anchor in “Serial Drama W Fixer Season 1” (WOWOW), which will start airing on April 23, 2008.

She began modeling in her second year of junior high school, and in 1993 was chosen as a swimsuit campaign girl for Unitika, where her tanned skin and healthy smile made her explosively popular. In 1994, she played the leading role in her first drama series, “The Girl Who Leapt Through Time” (Fuji Television), and since then she has been active at the forefront of the entertainment industry.

Uchida’s secret to staying young is described in the April issue of “Bista” (beauty magazine).

In my daily life, I basically go where I want to go, eat what I want to eat, and do whatever my heart desires. I even once fried tempura and ate it at 2:00 a.m. because I was hungry (laughs). In the past, I have never had very good results by holding back, so I think that as long as I am not so intemperate that I get sick, I should live my one and only life the way I want to.

This magazine has reported on Uchida’s private life, but in front of the camera she was always cheerful and surrounded by a natural smile. Let us look back on Uchida’s 30 years.

A 19-year-old’s night out (December 9, 1994 issue)

A birthday party for Yuki Uchida, 19, was being held at a pub-restaurant in Roppongi (Minato-ku), and when she entered the restaurant with three or four friends, a group of about 10 friends were already waiting for her. After the two-hour party, Uchida stopped by a noodle stand and slurped down his noodles.

We visited Uchida in New York, where she had been traveling across North America since the beginning of the year for a photo book shoot. We approached her immediately after seeing the Broadway musical “Beauty and the Beast,

She said, “Everything was on a different scale, and I learned a lot just by experiencing it. I know I still have a long way to go, but I hope I can get as close as possible to that kind of actor.

I’m not there yet, but I hope I can get as close as possible to that kind of actor,” she said.

Uchida’s natural smile during her prenuptial trip with Hidetaka Yoshioka (November 15, 2002 issue)

The couple was at a log house near Lake Yamanaka in Yamanashi Prefecture, quietly nestled at the foot of Mt. They were engaged at the time and had announced that they would hold their wedding and reception in Furano, Hokkaido, on December 7, so this was a pre-wedding trip. This was a pre-wedding trip, however, not just the two of them, but a lively get-together with friends. Uchida’s healthy smile shone brightly.

He appeared at a futsal venue with Takashi Kashiwabara (46), now his public and private partner. Uchida seemed to have come to support Kashiwabara, who is on the futsal team, and cheered him on loudly. After the game, they left the venue in Kashiwabara’s car.
