Mero Imai: Olympic snowboarder, former call girl, nude model, and mother
Mero Imai is a woman of many talents: a former snowboard half-pipe Olympic competitor, a one-time hostess and call girl, a nude model, and a bondage slave (photographically, at least).
Born in 1987, Imai has posed for a hair nude shoot for her 2013 photo book “Mellow Style”, as well as a series of provocative bondage images for a weekly tabloid.
Alas, the images of the 2013 BDSM-inspired shoot only seem to be online as scans of the magazine.
She revealed in 2012 that after her failure at the 2006 Winter Olympics, she became a hikikomori shut-in, and later a hostess in Osaka.
She actually competed alongside her brother in the 2006 Torino Games but their overbearing father-turned-coach destroyed their family. Her brother found a new trainer, while Mero took her mother’s maiden name in order to make a break from her patriarch.
Her post-Games nightlife habits in the dens of Osaka became expensive and, as later exposed by the tabloids, she even worked as a delivery health call girl for a short period to pay for her lifestyle, accruing ¥150,000 for her efforts in the bedroom.
During this dark period she later revealed that she cut her wrists, was raped, had an induced abortion, and had plastic surgery. At one point, she and her two kids were living off government benefits.
She got married in 2010 in a shotgun wedding and had a child. She later divorced her husband. She then married again in 2011, divorcing yet again in 2012.
What a roller-coaster life.
She has also released some DVDs, including this one where she gets naked on a bed and fingers herself.
What is it about sexy Japanese sportswomen? From boxers to volleyball players, we can’t get enough of them.
Bring on the Olympics!
