Momona Kito, a former leading idol in SKE48 (the Nagoya version of AKB48), has signed up for a one-off porn feature, starring under the new name Yua Mikami.
The 180-minute (!) “Princess Peach” will be released on major porn label Muteki on June 1st. Kito was in SKE48 from 2009 until 2014, though her final time in the group was tainted by scandal after she was photographed by tabloids in a drunken kiss with Yuya Tegoshi.
Muteki specialize in getting porn debuts out of popular ladies who until then had been famous for a different kind of career. Hot jukujo Chiharu Komatsu made her much-anticipated porn debut some years ago on a Muteki feature.
Momona Kito is far from the first former member of the AKB empire to embark on a second career in porn.
Most notoriously, Riko Yamaguchi debuted as a porn star in 2011. AKB48′s Risa Naruse made a spectacular debut (again in a Muteki film) in 2013.
Former SDN48 member Machiko Tezuka stripped off for some fully nude photos. More stylish, perhaps, but essentially porn.
It’s also interesting that this is another “one-time-only” AV debut. These have been increasing a lot in recent months. The AV labels do it to drum up publicity for their release, even when the “star” is an unknown.
Of course, they can then still continue with their porn career under a different name.
