Japanese starlet Maki Horikita is crowned Miss Cotton 2008. Eiko Koike is named as Mrs Cotton while TOKIO’s Taichi Kokubun the Mr Cotton.
The 5th Cotton USA Awards, meant to promote the cotton industry in Japan, were presented on May 14 in Ebisu, Tokyo. The annual awards are given to celebrities to celebrities who possess the ‘softness’ and ‘freshness’ like cotton.

Lily… I think she is filming (or perhaps just finished) some special episodes for Hana Kimi, she has to maintain her hair at that length I guess.
bb… hmm, I am not entirely sure; everything made of cotton perhaps? I wonder if the artists were wearing cotton made cloths when receiving the awards…
They have all sorts of strange awards in Japan!

Nikeg… all imported perhaps… still an industry regardless :)
She’s really cute!
