I actually thought "OG" was her initials.
8AnonymousSep 6, 2026 17:50
Less damaging than a leaked sex tape, at least.
15AnonymousSep 6, 2026 17:53
OG… Ogura Hisahiro…?

Re: #15
Pretty sure he hasn't quit SET yet (his comedy troupe).
16AnonymousSep 6, 2026 17:53
Someone from Onyanko Club.

Re: #16
At her age it'd be a secret grandkid, not a secret kid.
19AnonymousSep 6, 2026 17:53
No way she could keep performing while pregnant, so this has gotta be someone from way back.
20AnonymousSep 6, 2026 17:53
Idol work is just a job — if she managed to hide it the whole time she was active, good for her.
21AnonymousSep 6, 2026 17:53
The only "OG" I can think of is Otokogumi (an '80s boy band).
22AnonymousSep 6, 2026 17:53
If she's got a kid, just let it go — the kid's gonna get bullied over this.
23AnonymousSep 6, 2026 17:54
So even that "Ooturu Gitan" had a secret kid?! (garbled name, in-joke unclear)
67AnonymousSep 6, 2026 17:58
Re: #23
Just looked it up — turns out she's not just got kids, she's got grandkids lol
26AnonymousSep 6, 2026 17:54
Morning Musume or AKB?
If we assume she's at least somewhat famous, that narrows it to maybe 10 people?
27AnonymousSep 6, 2026 17:54
Apparently Yokoyama Rurika suddenly quit her horse racing show.
42AnonymousSep 6, 2026 17:56
Re: #27
Maybe she's marrying someone in the horse racing industry.
61AnonymousSep 6, 2026 17:58
Re: #27
She was on that live show almost every week — if she'd been pregnant, it definitely would've shown.
95AnonymousSep 6, 2026 18:03
Re: #27
"National idol group," though. (doesn't fit)
33AnonymousSep 6, 2026 17:55
Could she really hide a baby bump and give birth while still active as an idol without fans catching on?
35AnonymousSep 6, 2026 17:55
The fact that they're teasing it this hard means it's probably not that big a deal.
39AnonymousSep 6, 2026 17:55
This reminds me of Sumida Yuki's Ogawa Coffee commercial with the line "Let's go with OG."
40AnonymousSep 6, 2026 17:55
What does OG even stand for again?
"Old Girl"? If so, it's a woman.
41AnonymousSep 6, 2026 17:56
Searched for idols who went on an unexplained hiatus around 10 years ago…
46AnonymousSep 6, 2026 17:56
Writing "OG" instead of "former member of [group]" feels kind of old-fashioned.
48AnonymousSep 6, 2026 17:57
The silhouette really looks like Mayuyu.
62AnonymousSep 6, 2026 17:58
Feels like tons of female voice actresses are like that.
82AnonymousSep 6, 2026 18:01
Re: #62
Don't bring up that one voice actress who couldn't hide her pregnancy because of her live show and had to announce her divorce and remarriage publicly.
64AnonymousSep 6, 2026 17:58
If it's "national," it's gotta be SMAP.
73AnonymousSep 6, 2026 17:59
Re: #64
Old G-san?
71AnonymousSep 6, 2026 17:59
"OG" really only brings to mind Morning Musume or AKB.
Probably not Johnny's or some male idol group.
97AnonymousSep 6, 2026 18:03
Re: #71
It's "OG," so it's a woman.
83AnonymousSep 6, 2026 18:01
Maybe it's not "Old Girl" — maybe the "OG" stands for Ogawa.
90AnonymousSep 6, 2026 18:02
Re: #83
Former Morning Musume member Ogawa Makoto?
84AnonymousSep 6, 2026 18:01
There was someone in AKB rumored to have done AV (adult videos) that I had high hopes for…
Erepyon? Or was it Ono?
101AnonymousSep 6, 2026 18:04
Re: #84
Now that you mention it, we haven't heard anything about her whereabouts in over 10 years.
Could this be her?
88AnonymousSep 6, 2026 18:02
The bar for "national" idol has gotta be appearing on Kohaku (the New Year's Eve TV special).
94AnonymousSep 6, 2026 18:03
Re: #88
Then Berryz Koubou clears that bar!
111AnonymousSep 6, 2026 18:05
Re: #101
If she got married and had a kid after quitting, isn't that just a happy ending?
123AnonymousSep 6, 2026 18:06
Re: #111
Yeah, fair.
It's really just nice getting an update on someone who's been out of the spotlight for so long.

Background and key points of this discussion

The headline stems from a “scoop teaser” that photo tabloid websites post on X ahead of the print magazine’s release — a technique that withholds the subject’s real name to build interest before the full article goes up. Entertainment magazines have leaned on this tactic heavily in recent years, and the post itself contains almost no information that could identify who’s actually involved. The thread’s central debate over “OG” refers to a term used in school clubs meaning “Old Girl,” i.e. a graduate — in idol lingo it’s shorthand for “former member.” Even so, with only three clues to go on — “national,” “OG,” and “10-year-old son” — narrowing it down to a single person proved difficult, and candidates like Morning Musume, AKB48, and Onyanko Club never rose above speculation. There were even cases of posters self-correcting mid-thread, as with the Yokoyama Rurika theory, which was walked back with “she’s not from a national idol group.” Since the magazine’s actual article remained unconfirmed at the time of writing, the real identity and facts of the matter would need to be verified separately through the original source.
