Kou Shibasaki Is Shining in Her New Photos As an Actress and a Businessman

Kou Shibasaki, 41, is busy planting rice in Hamamatsu, the location for the NHK historical drama “Onnajoshu Naotora,” in which she starred, and attending a “Maison Christian Dior” event with Tomohisa Yamashita, Yuko Shinki, and others.

Kou Shibasaki (41) is spending her busy days. While she is an actress who has appeared in such well-known movies as “Mystery” and the TV drama “Galileo” (Fuji TV), she is also an entrepreneur who founded the entertainment commerce company “Retrois Grasse”. No wonder she is so busy.

Ms. Shibasaki first entered the entertainment world at the age of 14 when she was scouted by a scout while walking in downtown Ikebukuro, Tokyo. At the time, she was preparing to take an entrance exam, so she did not immediately join an agency, and her debut came when she was 16 years old. Her breakthrough came in 2000, when she appeared in the movies “Battle Royale” and “Go. Ms. Shibasaki is also a singer who sings the theme song of the drama “Crying Out Love, in the Center of the World” (TBS).

(A source from an entertainment production company) “FRIDAY” has been paying attention to the versatility of Shibasaki’s talent since immediately after her breakthrough. She has been seen doing live acubi on location, dating a big-name actor until morning, and wearing daring outfits that make you feel like you’re on the edge of your seat. We would like to introduce the aura of Shibasaki’s charm in these treasured photos.

Out of the public eye in a high-rise condominium district:

Hu, hu, huwa～～～～～.

It was in February 2003 that I witnessed Shibasaki’s big, unnoticeable, and very strong body crawl. The location was a corner where high-rise condominiums stand along the Sumida River in Tokyo’s Chuo Ward. The actress must have been tired from her busy day as an actress, and she must have let her guard down when she was riding her bicycle.

On the day of the incident, she was on location for the TV drama “GOOD LUCK! (TBS), in which she co-starred with Takuya Kimura. Ms. Shibasaki played the role of a strong-nosed female mechanic. I think it was a perfect role for her strong core,” said an employee at a commercial key station.

Shibasaki has had affairs with many artists and celebrities. This magazine discovered the scene of a date in April ’05 with a famous actor.

It was past midnight. A cab stopped near Shibasaki, who was walking in a light rain while talking to someone on her cell phone. Inside the car, there was already a man. It is actor Satoshi Tsumabuki. The cab carrying Shibasaki was headed for her favorite dining bar in Sangenjaya, Tokyo.

The two of them looked like they were having a great time drinking together. It was a nice atmosphere. It was after 4:00 a.m. when they left the bar.

Shibasaki and Tsumabuki went to a darts bar. It was 7:30 in the morning when they came out of the bar, but they looked so fresh that it was hard to believe they had been drinking for seven hours. They got into the same cab and got off separately in front of each other’s homes.

Shibasaki is an attractive face in both public and private life. Thanks to her overflowing talent, her work has increased and her busy days are likely to continue for some time.
