Biography
Saori Yamamoto was born and raised in Tokyo. She began modeling at the age of 15. After a few months, her career took off. She released her first DVD a year later called Pure Smile.
Saori has appeared in many stage productions and television shows in Japan. Her first non-solo DVD appearances were in the high action movie Bra Shooter. In addition to modeling and acting, she currently plays for a Japanese soccer team called Team Spazio
Like many J-idols, Saori Yamamoto was also featured in a video game/DVD called Gal of the Sparrow 2, which she announced at 2005's Tokyo Game Show. This DVD features other popular J-idols such as Chikako Sakuragi, Rio Natsume, Yuka Watanabe, Akari, Kaede Shimizu, Hitomi Okada and Hatsune Matsushima. This DVD/video game is only for sale in Japan.
In 2011, she dated soccer player Kazuhisa Kawahara (then a member of Ehime FC), but the president of her agency at the time forced her to break up with him. Cornered, she lost her mental balance, and decided to retire from the entertainment industry at the age of 26. After that, she started working part-time as a hostess in Ginza. She later married Kawahara in 2012, but the couple divorced on January 3, 2013. She later remarried to a businessman in May 2018.
After her retirement, she worked as a flower designer. Currently, she runs a marriage counseling business and a matchmaker bar.
