Ai Iijima
Born in Kameido, Koto, Tokyo, in 1972, Ai dropped out of high school after her the shock of her grandfather dying, whom she was very close to. After initially shoplifting to make ends meet, she began her career in the Japanese AV (adult video) industry, appearing in 26 videos and eight nude photo books between 1992 and 1993. During this time she appeared as a regular cast member on the notorious late night adult variety show Gilgamesh Night. While she was initially marketed as a raven haired beauty, Ai changed her looks completely to dyed brunette hair and tanned skin. This lead her to leaving the AV industry and to crossing over to the mainstream with Ai starring in commercials, a short music career with five singles and an album and even a manga co-authored by her. A popular figure on TV variety and panel shows during the 1990's through to the 2000's, she became involved in campaigns to educate the public about HIV/AIDS, a cause that few Japanese celebrities were willing to undertake. She released her best selling biography Platonic Sex in 2000, which detailed the struggles she had during her life and career. She announced her retirement from show business in March 2007. Tragically she died alone in her apartment from pneumonia in December 2008.
