J-ent Marries Off Two More as Popular Actresses Ueno Juri and Kitagawa Keiko Tie the Knot with Respective Musician Hubbies

Wow, it’s one after another in J-ent these days, and somewhere out there various fanboy groups are weeping salty tears. Last year there was the surprise marriage of Horikita Maki to much older actor Yamamoto Koji, and this year comes two more of her compatriots top dorama actresses tying the knot. First was Kitagawa Keiko walking down the aisle with her musician husband Daigo, with the massive wedding reception last month after officially registering their marriage in January.

This week came the shocking marriage of Ueno Juri with Wada Sho, one of the rockers in the trio band Triceratops. Both Keiko and Juri reportedly dated their hubbies since last year and went the route of getting married before revealing the news to the public. Keiko’s wedding reception was merely a formality and reported Juri will have one later as well. Congrats to all the happily married J-ent actresses who have churned out so many of my fave doramas from Nobuta wo Produce to Nodame Cantabile to Buzzer Beat.

    • what if they secretly married and expecting baby? will JE throw Jun like Jin or it will end like Kimutaku's case?

      Keiko's 1st dress remind me of her dress in Parakiss, but I like this better especially her hair.
      oh, poor Chiaki-senpai . . . yes, she'll always be Nodame for me no matter how many her other dorama I've watched, even in Last Friend I shout "what happen to your hair, nodame-chan?" I know that she's good actress but I just can't get rid of her nodame image.

    • Inoue Mao was reported to be leaving her long time agency (as to whether she'd retire or go to another agency we still don't know) and during that time showbiz and netizens alike were buzzing that this could mean that her marriage to Jun will come soon
      tabloids have their own speculations as to why she's leaving while some even putting out another deadline for X day (2ch term for their marriage announcement), the closest which is January 2017

    • OMG! I hope they get to marry ASAP too! It just sucks that JE is so strict with their talents getting married. I do hope the January 2017 marriage will really push through.

  • Wow akeiko looks fab but ai wished her husband will change his hair, he looks like he normally does.

    I was shipping Juri with her Prisoner of Love costar.

    • do you mean Last Friends? (prisoner of love is the ost title).
      sadly Eita was already taken around that time.

  • ugly man. what do ueno see in this guy? he look like a begger. she could do so much better. what up with actress married old man in japan.

    • Ugly man? What an ugly comment!!

      Just because you're shallow, doesn't mean Ueno Juri is.

      Love isn't all about looks, to you maybe, but for her it isn't (or maybe she finds him handsome - beauty is in the eyes of the beholder.)

      Anyways, congrats to the newlyweds!!

    • - 1000.
      One may think it or say it out loud, but blogging it is extremely rude. Learn some internet manners.

      As Konjo said "Congrats!"

    • I don't find him attractive, but beauty is in the eye of the beholder. As for what she sees in him, if she's a smart woman, I gather she married him based on character. Perhaps he's kind, honest, hard working, etc.

    • he looks fine to me... Try to take a Selfie at that angle and see how you will look!! so mean...

    • Go to your safe space. . . and cry your heart out for Ueno . . . Kikya.
      Kikya you should not judge Wado Sho appearance in photos shown above.
      Ueno loves Wado Sho content of character.

  • Congrats to the newlyweds!

    Good to hear that most of Japanese actressses dont mind settled down at young age.

    Satomi x Yamapi will be next! Gossips about them is everywhere!

    • I just read about the rumours that Satomi and Yamapi are dating. If it is true they will make a really cute couple. I liked them in From 5 to 9.

      As for the Japanese actresses getting married one after another. Erika Toda will probably be the next one. It was recently revealed that she is dating her costar Kase Ryo from Spec, who is 14 years older than her.

      So it seems like it is only Masami Nagasawa and Yui Aragaki left among the popular actresses who are still single.

  • yamapi dont look good with satomi. she need hot guy not cute guy. her body is scream hotness. yamapi body scream cuteness.

  • UENO JURI!! She's one of my favorite actresses. :) I'm sooo happy for her. Woohoo! Congrats and best wishes to the newlyweds!

  • My Nodame is married! Congratulations to her and wishing her everlasting love and happiness with her husband!
