Matsuura Aya information
Matsuura Aya debuted in 2001 with the single Dokki Doki! LOVE Mail. Her debut public performance with Hello! Project was at the April 2001 Morning Musume Live Revolution 21 Haru concert. Her debut album, First Kiss, followed in 2002 after a number of single releases. She then quickly became a favorite amongst Hello! Project fans. Maintaining that sweet and bubbly feel that is evident in all Hello! Project artists, Matsuura is a solid example of solo talent for those who go for this particular flavor of J-pop, which is certainly not without its fans. It has made her one of the most popular and successful solo artists in the Hello! Project.
Aya auditioned in 2000 for the 4th Morning Musume & Heike Michiyo Protegee Audition, and was selected along with Sheki-Dol to become a part of what was later known as Hello! Project. It is a common misconception that Aya originally auditioned to be a part of Morning Musume, which she didn't.[1] After being chosen from that audition, Aya Matsuura began her solo career. In time she would become one of Hello! Project's biggest acts.
Aside from a successful solo career, Aya Matsuura (nicknamed Ayaya), has also done numerous collaborations with other members of Hello! Project, including special, usually short lived groups Gomattou with Maki Goto and Miki Fujimoto; Nochiura Natsumi with Maki Goto and Natsumi Abe; and DEF.DIVA with Maki Goto, Natsumi Abe, and Rika Ishikawa. She's also done the "Folk Song" series which feature Yuko Nakazawa and other Hello! Project artists, as well as Hello! Project's shuffle groups (3-nin Matsuri in 2001, Odoru 11 in 2002, Salt5 in 2003, and the larger H.P. All Stars in 2004).
Also, she has collaborated with Miki Fujimoto as a duo named GAM that debuted September of 2006. Their first single, "Thanks!" reached the #2 position on the Oricon.
Education: Chigasaki municipal Matunami Junior High School, Sunrise High School
Hobbies: Nail art and shopping
Specialty: Tennis
To date, Matsuura has released four albums and a collection of singles that have achieved respectable placings on the Oricon chart, though so far she has yet to make it to the top spot. She previously had a radio show called Let's do it!! and now has a new radio show Matsuura Aya no All Night Nippon that started on March 30, 2005. She has also participated in various shuffle units with other Hello! Project artists. In other work, 21 year old Ayaya has appeared in many CMs, doramas, a few films, and starred in an entire musical called Sougen no Hito in 2003, for which she also did the soundtrack.
Matsuura Aya is a Hello! Project soloist. She auditioned in 2000 for the 4th Morning Musume & Heike Michiyo Protegee Audition, and was selected along with Sheki-Dol to become a part of what was later known as Hello! Project. She has sold over 2,435,822 copies in Japan alone being the best-selling solo artist in Hello! Project.
