Actress Ayame Goriki appeared on the talk variety show "Nikenme Dosuru? ~Tsumami no Hanashi~" (TV Tokyo, Saturday midnight 12:55), which aired late at night on February 28th. As a memory related to her 20th birthday, she revealed a "manly episode" involving MC Masahiro Matsuoka.
Goriki co-starred with Matsuoka in the drama "Hissatsu Shigotonin" (2012) when she was 19 years old. "When I told him I would be turning 20 next year, he said to me, 'I'll celebrate your birthday, so contact me when you turn 20,'" she recalled.
And when she turned 20, she expressed her gratitude, saying, "Before I even contacted him, he contacted the president of my agency at the time and got permission to hold a birthday party for me." She continued, "I'll never forget it. At the end, he brought out an Hermes bag saying, 'Happy Birthday!' It was so cool at the time!"
Matsuoka blushed and laughed, "That's not good." Hakata Daikichi, who was listening next to him, commented with a hint of jealousy, "That's too good. I hope it's all a lie!", drawing laughter.
