Leah DiZon’s Stunning Instagram Return After a Year
The SNS image after one year is also incredibly explosive.
Once dominating the Japanese gravure scene, the “Black Ship of the Gravure World” makes its return!?
American talent Leah DiZon (38) updated her Instagram for the first time in a year, and her beauty, unchanged from back then, is creating a buzz.
“In 2005, while staying in Los Angeles, Leah posted her own photos on her personal website. Within just one year, the number of hits on Google’s search engine reached 2 million. Encouraged by fans, she approached Japanese talent agencies herself, which led to her arrival in Japan in 2006. This sparked what can only be described as a ‘Black Ship Arrival,’ creating a huge impact.
Soon after, she graced the covers of various magazines, and in October, she released her first photobook, ‘Petit Amie.’ In February 2007, just six months later, her second photobook, ‘Hello! Leah,’ was released. The combined sales of both books surpassed an astonishing 300,000 copies.” (Gravure magazine editor)
However, in October 2008, she shocked everyone by announcing her sudden marriage to a stylist in Tokyo and revealed that she was four months pregnant. Within just over two years, she retired from gravure.
FRIDAY had been following Leah from the moment she arrived in Japan, reporting on various events such as her mishaps at events, her casual attire with nose glasses in Kabukicho, and many other moments. Among the most memorable, however, was her adorable appearance during pitching practice before her first official pro baseball game. Let’s take a look back at the article from the May 4, 2007 issue.
