Ai Shinozaki Month, Day 1

I consider Ai Shinozaki to be the world's most beautiful actress. She has appeared in eight films, of which I've unfortunately only been able to see three. They're a mixture of horror films and comedies.

Ai Shinozaki was born on 26th February 1992. She first became well known as a model in 2006. That's still her main career today, despite recent rumours that she's considering quitting to concentrate on her other activities.

In 2008 she recorded her first single, "M". From 2011 to 2014 she was a singer with the girl group AeLL, a concept group that sang songs about environmental issues. Officially the group has never disbanded, but it's not expected that they'll record together again.

Since 2015 Ai has released three solo albums: "Eat 'Em and Smile" (2015), "Love/Hate" (2017) and "You & Love" (2018), as well as various singles taken from these albums.

I'll publish a few photos of Ai Shinozaki each day this month. Most will be taken from her modelling sessions. There are literally thousands of photos available, so I'll make no attempt to select the best. None of the magazines containing her photos have been officially sold outside of Japan, so their copyright status is unclear. I'll credit the publisher of the photos whenever I know it.
