Aiyumi, a former member of the group Suga, revealed that she was very popular among the LGBTQ+ community in Japan.

On the 10th, a video titled "Escaping Parenting, a Night of Madness in Tokyo" was posted on the YouTube channel 'Annyohateyo Aiyumieo'.

On this day, Aiyumi shared a day in her life in Japan with her close Japanese friend, actor Yushin.

Speaking about Aiyumi, Yushin said, "She is incredibly popular with gay men. She shaved her head." In response, Aiyumi stated, "The people in this neighborhood liked me. Usually, people look at you differently, but when I shaved my head, I became very popular on that side."

She continued, "Even though I am a woman, because I shaved my head, I think people supported me as someone who boldly chooses a different path (from societal expectations)."

However, her activities in Japan were not easy. She revealed, "I tried various things for my career in Japan, but there was a long period where it seemed like it might work out and then it didn't. As a result, I became mentally exhausted. I wanted to leave Japan. So, thinking that Hawaii would be a place to heal, Yushin and I went on a trip, and from that point on, we became close friends."

Meanwhile, Aiyumi married a businessman two years her senior in 2022 and has one daughter. Aiyumi debuted as a member of Suga in 2002 and gained great love as a solo artist with the song "Cupid Honey."
