"Which celebrities made the most contributions to television" Ayu made the list

Yesterday was the 57th anniversary of television broadcast in Japan. To celebrate the occasion, Japanese website Oricon Style created a poll to see which celebrities made the most contributions to television.

SMAP's Kimura Takuya won the most votes in the actor category. In fact, ever since 1993's Asunaro Hakusho, Kimutaku has had a string of hit dramas, including memorable roles in Long Vacation and Beautiful Life. He is very deserving of the award. In the singer's category, 'Showa's Songstress' Misora Hibari was voted first. In the comedian category, Downtown, the comedic duo comprised of Matsumoto Hitoshi and Hamada Masatoshi placed first. Many voters even complimented them for being revolutionaries in the comedy world. The most contribution by a television host went to Tamori, the host of two long-running television shows, Music Station and Waratte Iitomo.

Singers

1. Misora Hibari
2. SMAP
3. Arashi
4. Yamaguchi Momoe
5. Matsuda Seiko
6. EXILE
7. Pink Lady
8. Hamasaki Ayumi
9. Southern All Stars
10. Amuro Namie

rest of the ranks are here.

She is a old popular enka singer considered to be one of Japan's greatest singers. I think during a national poll one of her songs was voted greatest Japanese song of all time. I don't really know much else about her, Zemus or Sunshine Slayer would probably be the people to ask

She is considered to be Japan's greatest singer ever by some people... She was an enka performer and her career was 4 decades long, having hits during all of those 4 decades...
