History
Rinne joined Hello! Project in 1999 as one of the original members of Country Musume. Unfortunately, in such a short time, Yanagihara Hiromi passed away and Kobayashi Azusa left the group for personal reasons. Rinne released two solo singles as a part of Country Musuume, until she was joined by such members as Asami, Morning Musume's Ishikawa Rika, and Satoda Mai. She graduated from Hello! Project in October 2002 to become a stage actress.
As a stage actress, Rinne worked in Up-Front Agency, under the supervision of former Country Musume producer, Tanaka Yoshitake. which allowed her to work in her home city of Sapporo. Rinne, Matsuura Aya, and Melon Kinenbi starred in the 2003 stage musical, Musical Sougen no Hito.
On 8 January 2006, according to Hokkaido newspapers, Rinne got married to a salaryman from Sapporo. As of October 2006, she is no longer listed as an stage actress, so it is assumed she has left Up-Front Agency to concentrate on her personal life.
