Actress Yumiko Shaku, 30, is the recipient of this year's “E-Line Beautiful” award from the Japan Association of Adult Orthodontics. The award is given to the female celebrity with the most beautiful profile. The association judges a candidate from the bridge of her nose to her chin.
Shaku said, “I always try to smile and appreciate every little happiness in my daily life. I also do facial exercise to keep my cheeks pushed up.”

Pity they didn't have a photo showing her e-line (nose to chin) in profile rather than her... well, never mind.

May I also propose Yumiko Shaku for the B-Line profile award. This association judges a candidate from her chin down to her navel. She certainly straightened out my P-Line this morning..

I'd give her a 9.5. I think she's absolutely gorgeous.

"The association judges a candidate from the bridge of her nose to her chin"
In other words, her mouth. Including her teeth, lips and tongue. Now, I happen to know ( well, know of ) several women who would give Yumiko a run for her money in the mouth department, one of whom would be Julia Roberts ha ha ha that was a joke, one of whom would be, believe it or not, golfer Ai Miyazato - that girl's got some of the whitest teeth on the planet!

Her lips don't look right in the second photo.

Er, this is beauty? (?_?)

She had some serious work on her nose and chin done a couple of years ago -- she claimed it was required because of a traffic accident or something and that it wasn't cosmetic. Which is fine, but to award her a beauty award? Shouldn't it go to her PS?
