Actress Naomi Kawashima, 51, will start hosting a new radio program, “Mrs. DJ La・La・LaLan♪” with Nippon Cultural Broadcasting Inc. She previously worked as a MC of “Miss DJ Request Parade” for 18 months nearly 30 years ago.
During the first program, which begins on Monday, Kawashima talks about her husband and how she uses cosplay to help him with his medical condition. Her husband, Toshihiko Yoroizuka, 46, is a famous patissier who suffers from obstruction of the central retinal vein, affecting his left eye.
Kawashima says she is relieved that he has cut back on drinking alcohol and is taking his medicine. "When he feels depressed, I cheer him up with cosplay," she says.
She says she wore a sexy apron with headgear on Valentine’s Day and added that "cosplay treatment” makes him laugh.

Wow 51! If she did 'cosplay treatment' on me I would not be laughing but more like arousing.

Remember her back in the day on a "drama" where she wore much less than an apron - that was nice! Forgot the name of the drama, though. Any help from the old-timers?

Thank you, Sherman! And I remember now - it was 失楽園. Some of the best tv ever!

“cosplay treatment” makes him laugh.
I'll bet it does more than make him laugh.

Lovely sexy women, she can do cosplay anytime and she seems to revel in it.

Wow, googling her with Safe Search off it quite enlightening. She still has it at 51.

Just makes him laugh?
tmarie
Smith, has to be. Honestly, why on earth would you discuss this with the public? Wanting more of a fan base??

So it seems Japanese ladies in their 40's and 50's are at a peak and in demand. Welcome I say. Better than a young one with no brain or soul. Plus J men have little desire for any woman over 29 so they are all ours!

Thanks for the tip, mate! Glorious past, indeed...

Wow! What an inspiration to women - in terms of looking good at 51 AND...erm...other stuff! Now where the bloody hell did I put my pinnie......?!

"head gear" I like that euphemism.

More girls should do cosplay for their significant other!
