*~*Seventeen*~* July 15, 2006 issue no. 18*19

Once again the lovely Nana Eikura graces the cover. I'm not complaining too much because I like her but at this point I have to say that I can do with another Keiko cover (even though I doubt that will be happening anytime soon). This Keiko's Beauty Honey session follows Keiko on the set of the FFTD Premiere. Late by our standards since the movie premiered June 16th but it IS in time for the Japanese premiere of the movie Sept. 16. Keiko looks lovely as usual I just wish she modeled like she used to. It appears that Keiko has put modeling on the back burner and has done up the whole "actress" thing. I think the main reason why ST refuses to drop her is because (a) she has a pretty strong contract with them thanks to winning Miss ST 2003 and (b) in spite of the recent absences she is still one of ST's golden girls.
