All credit for the next profiles go to wikipedia authors! Thank you for your time in building these readily avaliable profiles to us all!

FUJIMOTO MIKI or mikitty

Fujimoto was originally part of the group of finalists in the fourth generation Morning Musume auditions that resulted in the induction of Ishikawa Rika, Yoshizawa Hitomi, Kago Ai, and Tsuji Nozomi. While not selected at that time, in early 2001 Fujimoto was contacted again and offered a chance to debut as a solo artist. After training for a little more than a year, she made her solo debut with her first single, "Aenai Nagai Nichiyoubi." According to her Morning Musume x Tsunku 2 interview, she worked as a receptionist at Hello! Project's agency, UP-FRONT WORKS, during her training period.


In 2002, Tsunku pooled Fujimoto along with two other Hello! Project soloists, Goto Maki (a former Morning Musume member) and Matsuura Aya, to form Gomattou. The group released one single.


After a successful performance on the Kouhaku Utagassen New Year's Eve music program, Tsunku made the surprise announcement in 2003 to add Fujimoto to Morning Musume as a part of the sixth generation, sidelining her solo career indefinitely. Fujimoto gradually became one of the main vocals of the singles. Later that same year, she was added to the Country Musume roster along with Konno Asami, going on to release three singles as a part of the group.


Fujimoto was added to the futsal team Gatas Brilhantes H.P. in February 2004.


When Yaguchi Mari abruptly resigned from the group in April 2005, Fujimoto became the subleader of Morning Musume, supporting Yoshizawa Hitomi as the new leader.


In June 2006, it was announced that Fujimoto would form a new unit called GAM along with Matsuura Aya. GAM released three singles over the coming months, and then their first album in May 2007. A concert tour began on May 26th, 2007.


On May 6th, 2007, Yoshizawa Hitomi graduated from Morning Musume and Fujimoto Miki became the new leader with Takahashi Ai taking her former place as subleader.


On May 25th, 2007, Fujimoto was revealed in Friday magazine to have been dating a boyfriend, Shouji Tomoharu, who is part of comedy duo Shinagawa Shouji. Fujimoto herself confirmed that the story is true in a radio interview within days of the story breaking. As a result, on June 1st, Fujimoto, following in the footsteps of Yaguchi Mari, quit Morning Musume. She will remain in Hello! Project as a solo artist. She continued to perform in GAM with Matsuura Aya on their 1st tour, but for now it seems that both GAM and her solo career are on hold. She did not perform in July's Hello! Project concert tour, and will not perform in January's Hello! Project tour either.

SAYUMI MICHISHIGE or sayumin

Sayumi Michishige officially became a 6th generation member of the J-pop group Morning Musume, along with Eri Kamei, Miki Fujimoto and Reina Tanaka, on January 19, 2003, when the results of the Love Audition 2002 were made public. Just a few weeks later, she was placed in Morning Musume Otomegumi subgroup, when the group was temporarily divided so it could perform in smaller towns, thereby reaching out to a greater number of fans who couldn't otherwise have the privilege of watching them perform live. During the spring she—along with the rest of the sixth generation members—made her first concert appearance on the Morning Musume Concert Tour 2003 Spring "Non Stop!" during Yasuda Kei's graduation.


On July 16, 2003, the 6th generation members (with the exception of Miki Fujimoto) released their first photobook and corresponding DVD, both shot in Hawaii and part of the Alo Hello! (アロハロ!?) series. Their musical debut came shortly thereafter, on July 30, with Morning Musume's 19th single Shabondama (シャボン玉?). Although Michishige didn't get many solo lines in the song, one of those instances—in which she shouts "Shabondama"—did get her some attention on TV shows. Towards the end of 2003 Michishige began appearing in the show Revelations of M (Mの黙示録 M no Mokushiroku?), as a regular with ex-Morning Musume member Yuko Nakazawa.


2004 saw her first appearance on an album, Best! Morning Musume 2, and in a movie—"Star Sand Island, My Island - Island Dreamin'" (星砂の島、私の島-~Island Dreamin'~ Hoshisuna no Shima, Watashi no Shima - Island Dreamin'?). During the summer Michishige appeared in her first solo photobook and formed a temporary group called Ecomoni together with 4th Generation Morning Musume member Rika Ishikawa. Originally, the goal of the group was to promote environmental awareness only for the duration of the "Cool Down the Hot Earth" (熱っちぃ地球を冷ますんだ Atchii Chikyū wo Samasunda?) festival, but their popularity led to the members of the group being cast as voice actors for the fourth Hamtaro movie—along with Hello! Project soloist Aya Matsuura, with whom they also released the main theme for the film, entitled Tensai! Let's Go Ayayamu (天才!Let's Go あややム Genius! Let's Go Ayayamu?)—and appear in subsequent festivals.


In 2005 she and Rika Ishikawa released a duo photobook called Angels (エンジェルズ?). Though it has been called an Ecomoni photobook because both members appear in it, officially Angels has nothing to do with the unit. Michishige also appeared as a regular news anchor in the Japanese variety show Hello! Morning for most of the second half of 2005. That same year she was assigned to be a mentor to 7th generation member Koharu Kusumi, with whom she formed a duo called Rainbow Pink in the beginning of 2006. Introducing themselves as "Shige-pink" and "Koha-pink", the group was featured on Morning Musume's 7th album, Rainbow 7 (レインボー7?), with the song Rainbow Pink (レインボーピンク?), and subsequently on the 7.5 Fuyu Fuyu Morning Musume Mini! (7.5冬冬モーニング娘。ミニ!?) and Sexy 8 Beat albums, with Wa~Merry Pin Xmas! (わ~MerryピンXmas!?) and Takara no Hako (宝の箱 Treasure Box?), respectively. Michishige is also a member of Hello! Project's kickball team, Metro Rabbits H.P..


Following in fellow Morning Musume member Miki Fujimoto's footsteps, Michishige began hosting a radio show entitled "Hypernight - Michishige Sayumi Konya mo Usa-chan Peace" (ハイパーナイト モーニング娘。道重さゆみの今夜も♥うさちゃんピース?) in October 2006. Running approximately 30 minutes per episode, Michishige's show consists of her answering fan mail and participating in several games, among which saying a given phrase/expression in reverse, and giving general advice to her listeners.


In early December 2006 it was announced Michishige would be given a second solo photobook, entitled Longing (憧憬 Doukei?), released shortly thereafter on January 15, 2007. Shot in Okinawa, the book featured school uniform, swimsuit, simple one-piece and even wet yukata/bathrobe shots, in an attempt to convey a more mature image of the seventeen year old idol.

Michishige has also starred in "Bow30°" (「おじぎ30度」?), an original internet drama created for the purpose of advertising the Family Restaurant chain Gusto (ガスト?), as Ruruka Chī (地井ルルカ?), a novice waitress training under the supervision of her seniors Karin Kinoshita (木下花梨?) (played by Morning Musume's Ai Takahashi) and Mika Mochizuki (望月深華?) (Reiko Tokita).


The first semester of 2007 remained rather uneventful for Michishige, though, starting the second week of June (on June 9, 2007), she began co-hosting the Young Town radio show as a result of Miki Fujimoto's Friday magazine scandal and subsequent resignation from Morning Musume. Shortly thereafter she released her first Love Hello photobook and DVD, both shot in the island of Guam.
