Biography

History Azama was born December 26, 1986, in Hiroshima Prefecture and raised in Okinawa Prefecture. Azama is a graduate of the Okinawa Actor's School and was a member of B. B. Waves (or Baby Waves) while she was there before graduating from the group in 2000.

In October 2006, she won the 38th "non-no model grand prix" from a pool of 5000 applicants. From December 2006 to December 2007, she was an exclusive model for the magazine, and then moved to another mainstream fashion magazine, CanCam.

On March 3, 2007, she performed at the 4th "Tokyo girls collection 2007 Spring/Summer" as one of the top 70 models in Japan.

On April 24, 2007, she became "JTA (Japan Trans Ocean Air) image girl in 2007."
