Early life and career

[edit]

Lina Arashi was born on May 3, 2004, in Saitama Prefecture, Japan. Arashi is multiracial, as her mother is of Japanese-German descent and her father has roots from Iran, Iraq, and Russia.[1][2] She has a younger sister and brother.[1]

Arashi became a hot topic when her family went on a variety show called Made in Japan! on TBS TV, which aired in January 2016, and subsequently appeared in another episode broadcast in September of the same year.[3]

On April 6, 2018, she appeared in the 8th issue of the manga magazine Young Gangan (Square Enix).[4]

In 2019, she transferred from Motoko Inagawa Office to Ten Carat and changed her stage name to her real name, Lina Kahafizadeh.[5] In her stagename, the surname "Arashi" was taken from her father's first name (Arash Kahafizadeh). In November of the same year, she won the Miss iD 2020 Grand Prix.[6]

On May 23, 2020, from the July issue of the fashion magazine ViVi (Kodansha), she became the magazine's exclusive model.[7]

In February 2022, the film My Small Land, in which she plays the role of a Kurdish refugee, along with her real father, sister, and brother, was awarded the Amnesty International Film Award Special Mention at the 72nd Berlin International Film Festival.[8] In October, Arashi walked the red carpet for the first time at the opening ceremony of the 27th Busan International Film Festival, to which the film was shown.[9]
