About Tomomi Itano:

Born in Kanagawa, Japan in 1991. Tomomi Itano joined AKB48 in 2005 as an original member. In 2011, while continuing her activity as a core member of AKB48, she made a solo debut with song Dear J. Only six months later, she released her 2nd single Fuini and it reaches the top on Japan's 'Oricon' single chart. Since then, she has constantly released her singles, 10nen-go no Kimi e, 1%, and little, and they all were instant hits. In 2013, she graduated from the group and has been focusing on her solo career.

Since her first model appearance in a fashion magazine in 2008, she has become a fashion-icon among the younger generation. In 2011, she became the fashion brand celebrity icon for "Samantha Thavasa."

In 2012, she appeared in TV commercials for 22 companies, and she set the record for that year. She is one of the busiest young artist in Japan today.
