Biography
She was born in Aoi-ku, Shizuoka, Shizuoka Prefecture. She is the fifth of six siblings (three sons and three daughters). After graduating from high school, she belonged to a model club in Shizuoka Prefecture and debuted as a local model with a stage name "Murakami Chikatsu" (村上千夏, Murakami Chinatsu).[3] She made regular appearances for one year at the information programme (late-night programme) Jōhō Kōsaten Do!, started on April 1986 at the local TV Shizuoka. At that time, her stage name was "Yuki Hayakawa" (早川 ゆうき, Hayakawa Yūki).[3]
She downed the aforementioned programme and went to Tokyo on May 1987,[3] and changed her affiliation office. She made her nationwide debut with 11PM.[4] Her stage name is the current "Natsuki Okamoto."
In 1989, she became the race queen of Nissin Cup Noodle Racing Team, began acting as a celebrity with her appearance to Waratte Iitomo!,[4] and became widely known as "High Leg Joō."[5][6]
In the 1990s, she became active widely as a sexy-type variety tarento who lined up with Ai Iijima and Aya Sugimoto and also performed drama appearances as an actress.
In 1991, she starred in the Toei V-Cinema work Joshū Sasori: Satsujin Yokoku of the Joshū Sasori series and gained popularity.[6] Both of her reasons for getting off the plate are said to have been disputed without getting nude, both for rest by physical condition.[7][5] In the meantime, she decided to temporarily suspend her entertainment activities with the opportunity, during which she reported her neurose theory and weight loss, and transferred to her affiliated office.[8][9][10]
After that, she became a regular of the television variety programme, Hey! Say! A Board of Education, often showing rare answers with natural blurring. From a sexy tarento who sells sex appeal, she turned into a variety talent of whatever character she gave away.[11]
On June 1995, a police officer at a hotel caused a fuss with her and became a topic.[12][13][14] After that, in a row, returned troubles and troubles in cosmetics shops were reported,[15][16][17] and Natsuki Okamoto also became an article when there was something to kill the entertainment world.[17][18] In the same year her staff's separation would be reported as well.[19]
Since her priority of her stage appearances in 1996, Shinkon-san Irasshai, who had been appearing since 1992, was dismissed at the end of March, at the same time, her regular appearances of Hey! Say! A Board of Education, Ken Shimura no Daijōbudaa and Monomane Ōzakettei-sen also lost the broadcast on Fuji Television, and in April 1996 all the programmes were gone.[4] Her offer of work has decreased and looked back on that time later as "getting scolded."[20]
Her television appearances were rare in the 2000s, but she appeared frequently in golf pro-am tournaments. She made regular appearances in late-night television programme Yorubijo on April 2005. Prior to that, in February of the same year, she appeared in Cream Nantoka as a mother in a skating rink.[21] After that, there was almost no work until 2010. In the meantime, she was regularly appearing at the local Shizuoka Asahi Television in Tobikkiri! Shizuoka.
On September 2009, she guest appeared on a project with a motif on the television program Ano Hito wa Ima!?, and attempted to appear in a high-leg swimsuit that was a costume of the Nissin Cup Noodle Racing Team that was wearing during her race queen years, but the other men hidden the body with cloaks.[22]
She opened her blog for the first time at a repdigit of 2:22:22 on 2 February 2010. Although she was in her forties, the number of accesses in the gravure idol division of Ameba Blog became the first place, she was in another breakthrough[20] and her entertainment activities were resumed full-scale since the same year.[23] At the same time, since her activities as a gravure idol were also resumed, it came to be called "Japan's oldest age and gravure idol of 40 generations."[24] She had many offers such as talk shows. Greeting is much "Konya Konyachiwa~ Ohisashi brief, Okamoto Natsuki desu."[25] Many times she spoke with "mambo" at the end of her words such as "bikkuri mambo yo" (surprised mambo). "Shitsurei Bukkoki Mambo" (失礼ぶっこきマンボ, -Manbo) states that it is a phrase that she thought during the incubation period.
After the Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami of 2011, she thought that there is nothing she can do volunteer activities taking place in the disaster area frequently, and on her blog dated 7 June she wrote to make it interpret as a cease of entertainment activities.[26] However, when writing on 12 June, she denied it.[27]
On 1 August 2013, she succeeded in climbing Mount Fuji where she was attracted by charm. This pattern was broadcast at 5-Ji ni Muchū! on 20 and 27 August of the same year.
From October 2011 and March 2016, Tokyo's local television station Tokyo MX's 5-Ji ni Muchū! stepped down as Tuesday regular.[28]
In May 2017, she returned to the television for the first time in about a year with the special edition of Cream Nantoka broadcast by AbemaTV.
Personal life
Nominal profile problem
The content of the profile published about Okamoto has often been raised doubt, and its content is often described as "self-describing."
Age misrepresentation
Born in 1967, she was younger her than real age, and in February 1991 it was reported that she was not 23 but actually 25,[29] later she was born in 1965 and her profile was changed.
In 1995 it was reported that there was a rumour that in Shūkan Josei, she was 35 years old.[30] She ate 37 beans at Setsubun at the television talk show Lion no Gokigenyou broadcast on 3 February 1997, two years later, which is supposed to eat the same number as the age, actually she revealed she was 37 years old.[31] About this, the person herself said in 2010, "I tried to eat a lot of beans at once in order to make you laugh."[32]
The allegation of age spoofing recurred around 2000, but Okamoto herself continued a stance that could be taken as a midway affirmation about the truth of suspicion, and calmed down as soon as tacit consent.
In the 2010s, she had disclosed an identity document to prove her date of birth, and in Jōhō Live Miyane-ya on 17 December 2010, she actually released a driver's license stated as "12 September 1965" in the broadcast. Okamoto talks that, "please go to pick up your family register," "even if I show my health insurance certificate I do not believe my actual age," etc., even though she herself makes a suspicion about age spoofing.
Friendship
She was a colleague when she served as a race queen of the Nissin Cup Noodle Racing Team in 1990, and had friendship with Izumi Sakai (Zard), which later became popular as a singer. Sakai suddenly died in 2007 (Heisei 19) and commented that Okamoto went to a karaoke box with Sakai and several staffs during their race queen years, Sakai had a song "for you…" of Mariko Takahashi, and when listening to her singing, Sakai revealed the episode that said "If this singing voice is such a good song, you may be the best singer."
Her entertainment office Titan's President Mitsuyo Ota and politician Renhō worked together with Okamoto at the tarento years and was working on a unit called "Hyōryū Gals."[33] After that, she went to play at the house of Mitsuyo, where she met Bakushō Mondai. After that, the duo made their breakthrough and they had become estranged since.[34] The duo frequently use Okamoto to appear on radio and appeared irregularly in the VTR of Sunday Japon from 2010. After that, she co-starred on the program, she herself said "I have not seen them for the first time in 20 years." In an interview at the time of an event in June 2011, she touched Mitsuyo at the office, but confess that he was refused. There is also a long-standing friendship with Terry Ito.
In addition to this, Aya Sugimoto who was active in entering the entertainment industry at the same time as Okamoto and also familiar with Akira Hokuto who is co-starring at 5-Ji ni Muchū!.
Stage name
On the origin of the name "Natsuki Okamoto", the surname "Oka" was from the hometown Shizuoka, and from the professional golfer Ayako Okamoto who was active at the time. The name borrowed from the fact that she liked summer in the four seasons and the genji name of a fellow model who worked together at a hostess club of Ginza who worked at that time was "Natsuki" (なつき) and liked that sound.[35]
The reason for renaming "Yuki Hayakawa" to "Natsuki Okamoto" was because Youki Kudoh was her senior of Hirata Office where she was affiliated at the time and Okamoto was said to be "confusing" from the office staff, and was told from her office that they "need to print a promotional brochure, so decide within 2 hours!" and renamed.[35]
Episodes

Furthermore, in an interview published in the magazine Fujin Kōron on 22 November 2011, she said that she had been simulating a rental income by lending an apartment when it comes to an emergency.
- She professed her experience of receiving cosmetic surgery,[36] but said that she is not having breast implants. Also, she said that she has refused to appear on adult videos.[37] She had atopic dermatitis.[38]
