The singer and actress KOM_I is known for her provocative career choices, from doing lesbian sex scenes in the Netflix show Followers to releasing nude photo shoots not once -- but twice. Somewhat queasily yet erotically, one of the shoots even involved blood and knives in addition to her pale, naked flesh. The 28-year-old Wednesday Campanella singer has now shed her clothes again for a photo shoot for Vogue Japan, the highlights of which she posted on her own Instagram account a few days ago. The shoot has KOM_I nude in a garden, facing off against a classic sculpture while wearing a gold ...

Nikaido is a quite accomplished photographer, having released at least another photo book she made with the fashion model Serina Motola (in addition to her own photo books, of course).
