In 1997, Aya Ueto participated in the 7th All-Japan National Young Beauty contest, where she received a special award from the judges. Her discovery led to many TV commercial deals, which would eventually start her acting career.

In 1999, she formed the J-pop band Z-1 with Mami Nejiki, Mai Fujiya, and Manami Nishiwaki. They released five singles before breaking up, but Aya went on to start a solo career when she signed with Pony Canyon two years later. She released her first single, "Pureness," in 2002. Since then, she has released several more singles and three albums.

Meanwhile, Aya began her acting career in 2000 with a role in Namida wo Fuite. In 2001, she played a part in 3 Nen B Gumi Kinpachi Sensei, and her performance greatly boosted her popularity. She starred in several later dramas, including Koukou Kyoushi 2003, Hitonatsu no Papa e, and Aim for the Ace!. She also starred in Ryuhei Kitamura's blockbuster Azumi and in its sequel, Azumi 2: Death or Love.

She is often said to physically resemble Japanese star Momoe Yamaguchi. As of 2006, she remains ubiquitous in Japan, appearing constantly on magazines and in commercials.

I like her she's really cute. Actually she looks just like this girl I know.

An excellent actress and singer who is still one of my most favorable person in the two catergories.

lol i think she has to be one of the cutest Japanese actresses ever.

Beauty Is In The Eyes Of The Beholder !

Currently, we have more Aya Ueto pics than anyone else, 800 + images. Take a look in our gallery which I linked to in the thread.

yeah shes cute, shes a pretty good actress too

Yea I agree she looks really cute! I heard her name before I'm sure of it but don't remember where. Is she really popular in Japan?

She reminds me of this famous j-pop singer. :]

Had seen both Azumi movies (Azumi & Azumi 2)... excellent acting! I would agree that she's one of the prettiest Japaneses girls I've seen... can't help but to envy her...
