Hiro & Ayaka
Getting married at the height of their popularity
8 month relationship! Mizushima Hiro & Ayaka getting married at the height of their popularity
3rd April 2009
It was revealed on the 2nd of April that popular actor Mizushima Hiro (24), recently ranked Number 1 in the Ikemen Ranking list, and popular singer-songwriter Ayaka (21) are getting married. The two of them began their relationship after a magazine talk together for a magazine last June. They are expected to submit their marriage registration on Mizushima's birthday, the 13th. Getting their big breaks 3 to 4 years after their debut, the two of them, at the height of of their popularity, are going for their goal towards happiness together.
They are in the different fields of acting and singing but in the same agency. They began their acquaintance when they hit it off while doing a talk for the magazine 'mini' last June. According to close friends, they started dating around August.
From the beginning, the romance was a serious one with both mutually keeping marriage in mind. They have already met each other's parents and made formal arrangements on each side. The marriage registration is expected to be submitted on Mizushima's 25th birthday on the 13th. Currently, there are no plans yet for a ceremony and a wedding.
Mizushima spent his childhood, up to middle school in Zurich, Switzerland. Standing at 1.8m, he is a Keio University graduate. With all the necessary characteristics to be popular with women, he has been called the 'super ikemen among ikemens'.
From playing the lead role in TV Asahi's Kamen Rider Kabuto in 2006-2007, to Fuji TV's Zettai Kareshi (2008) and Mei-chan no Shitsuji (this year January to March) among others, he has garnered wide-ranging support from children to housewives. In last month's Oricon Style article 'Ikemens On Your Mind Ranking', he was voted first, beating the likes of Oguri Shun (26) and Eita (26). He topped the 'Favourite Actors Among High School Girls' too.
Ayaka, who debuted in 2006 with her song 'I believe' made history by being the first female singer-songwriter to enter the Oricon Charts in the top 3 on her debut. In the same year, she was presented with the Best New Artist Award. She has participated in NHK's Kouhaku 3 years consecutively. In 2007, her hit song 'Mikazuki' topped the 'Karaoke Request Ranking'. It was covered by Inoue Yousui (60) as well, a song that crosses over generations.
Shining as brightly as the 2 of them are, they dislike being loud in their personal lives. There are no gossip of them dating in popular spots or restaurants, their sightings are limited to frequent sightings of them shopping at supermarkets. Both busy with their careers, they spend their free time away from work at each other's homes, eating home-cooked meals. This seems to be a romance nurtured at home.
Deciding to get married at the height of their popularity, it is simply because these two have chosen their 'little piece of happiness'. "They look out for each other, they're an ideal couple together." They have been given the blessings by those around them.
Update : On the day that Sports Nippon broke the news about their relationship, Hiro and Ayaka held an emergency press conference to reveal that they are actually already married.

交際８カ月！水嶋ヒロ＆絢香が人気絶頂婚
最新のイケメンランキングで１位になった人気俳優の水嶋ヒロ（２４）と、人気シンガー・ソングライターの絢香（２１）が結婚することが２日、分かった。２人は昨年６月、雑誌の対談をきっかけに交際をスタート。水嶋の誕生日の１３日に婚姻届を提出する予定だ。デビュー３～４年で一気にブレークした２人が人気絶頂の中、幸せのゴールに飛び込む。
２人は俳優、シンガーと活動するフィールドこそ違うが、同じ事務所に所属。もともと顔見知りで、昨年６月に雑誌「ｍｉｎｉ」（宝島社）の対談で意気投合。親しい友人らによると、８月ごろから交際をスタートさせた。
当初から互いに結婚を意識した真剣愛。既に双方の両親へのあいさつは済ませており、関係各所への正式な報告を調整している段階。婚姻届は、水嶋が２５歳の誕生日を迎える１３日に提出する予定。現段階では挙式・披露宴などは決まっていない。
水嶋は幼少期から中学までスイスのチューリヒで過ごした帰国子女で、桐蔭学園サッカー部時代には全国高校選手権の準決勝で平山相太(現ＦＣ東京)擁する国見と対戦したスポーツマン。１メートル８０の長身で、慶大卒業。モテる男のポイントが多く、“イケメンの中のスーパーイケメン”と呼ばれている。
０６～０７年にテレビ朝日「仮面ライダーカブト」に主演してから、フジテレビ「絶対彼氏～完全無欠の恋人ロボット」（０８年）、「メイちゃんの執事」（今年１～３月）などのドラマで話題を集め、子供から主婦層まで幅広い支持を獲得。先月末、情報誌「オリ★スタ」が発表した「気になるイケメンランキング」では、小栗旬（２６）や瑛太（２６）らを抑えて１位。「女子高生が好きな俳優ランキング」でもトップになった。
一方の絢香は０６年のデビュー曲「Ｉ ｂｅｌｉｅｖｅ」が女性シンガー・ソングライターのデビュー曲として史上初めてオリコンチャートのトップ３入りした歌姫。同年の日本レコード大賞で最優秀新人賞に輝き、ＮＨＫ紅白歌合戦に３年連続で出場中。ヒット曲「三日月」は０７年の年間カラオケリクエストランキングで１位になり、井上陽水（６０）もカバーするなど、世代を超えて歌われている。
華やかに見える２人だが、プライベートでは派手なことが嫌いで、人気スポットや飲食店などでのデート情報はなく、スーパーで買い物している姿がたびたび目撃されている程度。互いに多忙な中、仕事の合間をぬって自宅で手料理を食べながら過ごすアットホームな愛をはぐくんできたようだ。
人気絶頂期に結婚を決意したのも、そんな２人だからこそ選んだ“ささやかな幸せ”。「互いに助け合い、認め合っている理想のカップル」と周囲も祝福している。
◆絢香（あやか）１９８７年（昭６２）１２月１８日、大阪府生まれの２１歳。高校２年時から楽曲製作を開始。デモテープがきっかけとなり、ワーナーミュージックと契約。０５年に上京。０６年１月に「Ｉ ｂｅｌｉｅｖｅ」でデビューし、オリコン初登場３位を記録。同年９月、４作目の「三日月」でオリコン１位を獲得。同年の日本有線大賞などを受賞。１メートル５７。血液型Ｏ。
◆水嶋 ヒロ（みずしま・ひろ）１９８４年（昭５９）４月１３日、東京都生まれの２４歳。慶大環境情報学部に進学後、モデルとして芸能活動開始。０５年に日本テレビ「ごくせん」、０７年にフジテレビ「花ざかりの君たちへ～イケメン♂パラダイス～」などのドラマに出演。５月２３日スタートのＴＢＳドラマ「ＭＲ・ＢＲＡＩＮ」で木村拓哉と共演。１メートル８０。血液型ＡＢ。
