Talento IMALU (19) is reportedly in a relationship with SHOGO (29), the vocalist of rock band 175R and the ex-husband of SPEED member Eriko Imai (25).

IMALU is the daughter of Sanma Akashiya (53) and actress Shinobu Otake (51). She attended high school in Canada until her graduation last June, when she returned to Japan with a desire to become a singer. Through her involvement in music, she met SHOGO last autumn and the two hit it off.

IMALU has only been in show business for three months. She debuted as a model in April, followed by a gig as a DJ for FM Yokohama. She has started appearing on variety shows while preparing for her singing debut.

SHOGO was married to Eriko Imai from May 2004 to September 2007, and they had one child together. He was later rumored to be dating idol Yuka Kosaka (24), but he personally denied it.
