You know Yuko Ogura, right? If not, then you should. This lovely 23-year-old Japanese idol/model has the pouty, innocent look down pat, and her eyes can stop your heart. If you don't know her by sight, you may by sound. She is best known for the super-cute popular ending theme to School Rumble, "Girls heart Boys" , or "Onna no Ko Otoko no No" in Japanese. If you're like me, you've heard the song 1,000 times, and it's still not enough. Here she is in a video of a photo shoot, looking impossibly adorable. How can one person be this cute?
[Update: I brought sexy back... or at least Yuko Ogura did]
