Over the past few weeks, actress Kazuyo Matsui has been a fixture on Japan’s tabloid TV shows for the very public battle she is waging against her actor husband, whom she has accused of adultery.
Her internet-based smear campaign against veteran actor Eiichiro Funakoshi recently entered a new phase on Friday when she posted an emotional six-minute YouTube clip in English to broaden her audience.
“My husband and I have been married for 17 years, ” Matsui, 60, says in the video, titled ” ‘The Truth’ From Tokyo Japan.”
“I found out that my husband has been having an affair with my best friend… She is married and even has a daughter!”
By no means is Matsui the first Japanese celebrity to captivate the media with sordid details of their private lives.
