Ami Suzuki’s Rise as a New Mama Talent Critic After Mikitty’s Success

Former idol Ami Suzuki is once again attracting attention.

In the late 1990s, Suzuki, known affectionately as “Ami-go,” became popular and is now 42 years old. While she continues her career as a singer, she is also a mother of three after getting married, and she is starting to gain recognition as a “mama talent.”

“Currently, Suzuki is writing a column on ‘with online,’ which resembles a life advice section. Many of the topics are related to ‘parenting,’ but she offers her opinions and insights from a perspective that resonates with others, rather than coming across as lecturing. Her Instagram and YouTube also feature parenting content, and there seems to be a lot of support from followers who can relate,” said a women’s magazine editor.

For example, in an article titled “Ami Suzuki’s thoughts on ‘Maintaining a good distance with mom friends’: ‘You don’t have to force yourself to make mom friends'” (published on November 27th on ‘with online’), she shared her views:

“Just make sure to greet them properly, but you don’t have to get too involved. If you don’t have much conversation, the other person will probably sense that, and I try to maintain a good distance in my relationships. I believe it’s better not to force yourself in mom friend situations.”

Many comments expressing relief, such as “I feel saved by this” and “I completely agree,” were posted in response to her words.

Let’s take a moment to look back on Suzuki’s career.
