Sure, Michelle Obama has been anointed Most Stylish First Lady In History and Carla Bruni-Sarkozy is undoubtedly the hottest first lady ever and Italy’s first lady is busy divorcing her playboy husband. But most of the world’s first ladies just blend into the background.
That’s about to change according to the Independent:
Miyuki Hatoyama, wife of Japan’s Prime Minister-elect, Yukio Hatoyama, is a lifestyle guru, a macrobiotics enthusiast, an author of cookery books, a retired actress, a divorcee, and a fearless clothes horse for garments of her own creation, including a skirt made from Hawaiian coffee sacks. But there is more, much more. She has travelled to the planet Venus. And she was once abducted by aliens.
The 62-year-old also knew Tom Cruise in a former incarnation – when he was Japanese – and is now looking forward to making a Hollywood movie with him. “I believe he’d get it if I said to him, ‘Long time no see’, when we meet,” she said in a recent interview. But it is her claim in a book entitled “Very Strange Things I’ve Encountered” that she was abducted by aliens while she slept one night 20 years ago, that has suddenly drawn attention following last Sunday’s poll.
Perfect. Hatoyama can remember meeting Tom Cruise in a prior life, but Michelle Obama can’t remember meeting Bill Ayers in this life.

Yukio's nickname is "the alien" because of his weirdass hair, and his manner, so i find this pretty funny.
sadly, this dude is part of the DPJ, which he previously departed from for being too left wing, im hoping he hasnt changed his mind, because i dont like the idea of left wingers in power over there too, because the more left japan gets, to more examples the left here at home pull from them to use here.
you know that in japan, not only are guns illegal (except a single hunting rifle, which is locked in a special locker, and a map to the locker must be given to the government) but you cant even have family heirlooms that are weapons? no swords, no knives, no friggin martial arts weapons, Thats exactly the form that the left is intent on bringing here. (you know what else is funny? the only people that have guns are the special police, and the yakuza [note should be made that its the yakuza who are preventing crime in the first place, because nobody wants to mess with a person who might be protected by them)
anyways, damnit, LDP is out, DPJ in, lets hope thats as far as it goes.
She looks like marge simpson with that 60's up-do
What a relief! I knew she looked familiar, but couldn't place her. Must have been that Millennial bash on the Mother ship.
