“Vagina artist” Megumi Igarashi (aka Rokudenashiko) has announced she will marry British rock musician Mike Scott of the Waterboys.
Igarashi (44) will marry Scott (57), who is popular in Japan and also composed a song, ROK ROK ROKUDENASHIKO, for Igarashi in 2015.
We actually saw Igarashi once at an event and she was attending it with a foreigner (not Scott). We wondered then if he was a lover and whether her tastes were of the interracial variety. I guess we were at least half right!
Igarashi is still fighting her latest court case for obscenity and joked on Twitter that she would invite the police and prosecutors to her wedding. We imagine the ceremony will be pretty unconventional. What will her wedding dress be? A costume based on her you-know-what?
She is also set to release her first English-language book in May.
First arrested in July 2014 for digitally distributing data of her genitalia as part of a crowd-funding campaign for an art project, the “manko artist” was again arrested in December 2014 over obscenity charges for displaying an artwork in an adult shop — a “vagina selfie” sculpture.
