ココナッツ娘。
Coconuts Musume were recruited by Hello! Project mastermind Tsunku after his former Sharan Q bandmate Makoto spotted them performing at a restaurant in Waikiki, and they made their debut on ASAYAN in June of 1999. The group originally consisted of five members: Kimura Ayaka, Mika Todd, Danielle Delaunay, April Barbaran, and Chelsea Ching.
After releasing two singles, April and Chelsea left the group, and a new member, Lehua Sandbo, was added in January of 2000. After another two singles, Danielle left the group in April of 2001 and the remaining trio released what would turn out to be their last single in August 2001.
Auditions for a new member were advertised, and due to take place at various locations around Hawaii during January 2002. However these auditions were either canceled or unsuccessful, and instead of adding a new member the group became a duo when Lehua left in February of 2002.
Coconuts Musume did not release any more singles, but they continued to perform at concerts and hosted their own radio show from 2001 to 2004 called Kiss the Coconuts!. The group made its final performance in Spring 2004 during Morning Musume Concert Tour 2004 Haru The Best of Japan, when Mika left Japan and the Hello! Project to study in America. With Mika gone, Coconuts Musume is now just one member, Ayaka, and she continues to be introduced as "Coconuts Musume Ayaka".
Now Coconuts Musume have been entirely disbanded as Ayaka recently left Hello! Project to become an actress, now working under the stage name Nagate Ayaka. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
