Ariyoshi and Natsume, Watabe and Sasaki Nozomi… “Comedians and entertainers” in hot love!

Hiroyuki Ariyoshi ♡ Mitsuhisa Natsume ’21 June 25, 2009

A few years ago, I had a chance to talk with the winner of the “M-1 Grand Prix. The words of the champion are still fresh in my mind.

He said, “The world has changed since I won the M-1 Grand Prix. I used to be ignored by women, but in the past year, 200 of them have come to me.

It’s true that comedians of the highest caliber are popular. This magazine has seen many dates between comedians with good looks that anyone would envy, such as the 18 pairs we have selected for this issue. Even in 2025, Ryota Yamasato (44) of the Nankai Candies, who is popular for his backstabbing of the unattractive, won the big prize of Yu Aoi (36).

He said, “Many comedians are good listeners, so their conversations turn pleasantly. Their reactions are good, and they basically praise and lift people up, so many people feel kind and comfortable with them. They think it’s natural to be rejected, so it’s probably good that they don’t go for the ‘love mount’.

Let’s hear what the women have to say. A young TV writer laughs, “Once you get used to drinking with comedians, it becomes painful to meet with good-looking celebrities.

“If you’re a successful comedian, your income is more stable than a bad actor or model, and if you’re good enough to be the MC, you’ll be able to give top-notch attention. Compared to handsome actors, idols, and poor singers who don’t make much money but are ‘orei-sama’ (bossy), it’s easy to be with them. Mr. Yamasato and Mr. Ariyoshi (Hiroyuki) are very quick-witted when you talk to them. I think there are a lot of women who fall in love with them because they look sexy in that gap.

It’s not like he’s a big star or anything. Let’s take a look back at the real faces and secrets of popular comedians.

“Oriental Radio’s Atsuhiko Nakata, 38, left Yoshimoto and left Japan, saying, “I’m not good at keeping in line with other comedians. The sociable Moe Fukuda, 36, bridges the gap between her wayward husband and the entertainment industry. They are the ideal couple who complement each other.
