Actress Noriko Sakai made an appearance at the 『Ishikawa Autobacs Kazuki Presents Zekiyoki W x Papapan Festival』 event held on October 2 (Sun.) at Shiinoki-ryokuchi. She sang several songs on a special stage and showed that she is still going strong with her fluent talk as a TV personality.
Ad-lib talk with Momoko Baba Anna
The MC was Momoko Baba, a former freelance announcer for TV Kanazawa and well-known for her work on 『Tonari no Telekinchan』, but when Noriko Sakai appeared on stage, she kept her “Kanazawa’s Rampage Horse” persona to herself and proceeded with the show.
When Baba Momoko introduced the event, 「I would be happy if as many people as possible could see Noriko Sakai in your eyes」, Ms. Sakai made time to talk with Baba between songs and happily said, 「I’m a Baba-san fan too」.
Baba asked me, 「What is your favorite bread?」 Sakai was asked by Baba, 「What is Noripan’s favorite bread?」 . Her talk was also very good.
By the way, his favorite bread used to be a fashionable French bread with cranberries, but nowadays he exclusively likes 「salted bread」 and is so addicted to it that he is going on a 「salted bread trip」.
Don’t miss the songs of the grown-up “Noripi”
Last year, Noriko Sakai appeared as herself in the fake documentary drama 『Producer K』. She sang 『Aoi Usagi 2021』, an arrangement of the theme song 『Aoi Usagi』 from the drama in which she starred, 『Hoshi no Kinka』 (1995, NTV), and gave an outstanding live performance on this special stage.
They sang plenty of songs from their fourth single 『Dream Adventure』 (1987), 『I Believe in You』 (1993), 『Traveler』 from their first mini-album since their return, 『Tears One by One』 (2014), and 『Aoi Usagi 2021』 from 『Kagami no Dress』 (1996), the theme song for the drama 『Zoku Hoshi no Kinka』.
The “Noripi” side was very considerate this time and allowed pictures and videos to be taken, so they were uploaded on the Internet. The video posted on Instagram by a passionate fan of Noriko Sakai’s was well worth watching, so we have linked to it.
