History

Yaguchi Mari joined Morning Musume as a member of the second generation, along with Yasuda Kei and Ichii Sayaka. She was famous for her "Sexy Beam!" line from "Koi no Dance Site", as well as for being the smallest member of Morning Musume at only 145 cm (4 ft. 9 in.) and 39 kg (86 lbs.). She quickly became a fan favorite thanks to her exuberant and irreverent personality.

Yaguchi became Morning Musume's sub-leader in May 2003, after the graduation of Yasuda Kei.

After the graduation of Iida Kaori in January 2005, Yaguchi became leader and Yoshizawa Hitomi would support her as sub-leader. However in April 2005, it was reported by tabloid magazine FRIDAY that Yaguchi was in a relationship with actor Oguri Shun. She said she had "betrayed [her] position as an idol" and that she "want[ed] to move on with [her] career as an adult." As such, Yaguchi resigned from Morning Musume without a graduation ceremony. Yaguchi and Oguri have reportedly broken up since April 2006.

Yaguchi has not released any new music recordings since leaving Morning Musume (aside from singing "Nigiyaka na Fuyu" with Berryz Koubou), although she continues to appear on television and at live events on behalf of Hello! Project. She also co-hosts two weekly TV shows of her own (Yaguchi Hitori and Kanrui! Jikuu Times), has starred in two dramas, and frequently guest stars on other variety shows.

This new focus on television prompted Yaguchi, during an interview with actor Hugh Jackman, to jokingly describe herself as a "variety idol". [1] Although she later regretted the joke — because she has tried to distance herself from her idol image — the nickname has stuck amongst her fans. At the start of 2007, she has started to sing during Hello! Project concerts again.

On 2007 Summer, Yaguchi was casted to host a new Gyao TV show, "Midtown TV", becoming her third tv-show on air. "Midtown TV" airs all weekdays and Yaguchi hosts it on Thursdays. Also, Mari and seven H!P Eggs are scheduled to appear live and with audience on "Ciao TV", a Kids Station show, on 09/02, 19h~19.30h, on what appears to be yet a new TV show for her, which makes four Yaguchi Mari TV shows being aired simultaneously.
