Breaking news from Cyzo.
Sawajiri Erika has not been seen in Japan for a while, following the events of her recent expulsion from former talent agency Stardust Promotions. However, an unnamed source close to the actress has come forward to reveal what she's been doing in the meantime.
As we all know, she is currently staying in Europe with media mogul husband Takashiro Tsuyoshi. The source claims, though, that even in the tough economy facing the new year, Sawajiri seeks to make a comeback in the Japanese entertainment industry.
It's not going to be easy.
Sawajiri's name was tied to the Sakai Noriko drug trial, and although Sakai has denied any involvement with the actress, the stigma remains, tainting Sawajiri's already-less-than-savory image.
The source further claims that since it is hard for Sawajiri to find work as an actress, she is looking for new avenues of exposure, particularly in the performing arts.
This would not be Sawajiri's first foray into the music industry. We all know that she has already debuted as a singer under Sony with her first name only, "ERIKA". This time, she has been offered an opportunity to become a DJ by a person who the source claims
"... is an ex-boyfriend of Erika. He is a famous club DJ and actor. She is worried about returning to Japan but the ex-boyfriend has connections to a club seeking a female DJ and is looking to debut her as one."DJ Erika? What do you all think?
