Leah Dizon received only moderate success including the cover features of various import car magazines. However, her modeling career [2] in the States gained her much attention and a large fanbase overseas, predominantly Asia. One year after her pictures were posted up on the internet, she had already 2,000,000 hits from search engines. [1] Following the advice of her fans, Dizon sent a demo tape to a talent agency in Japan. In April of 2006, after being accepted, she immediately moved to Tokyo. In October 2006, she released her first photobook titled “Petite Amie” (”Girlfriend” in French). In 2007, Dizon made her debut as a singer under the record label Victor Entertainment. Her debut CD single and DVD package, Softly (VIZL-216) was released February 14, 2007[3], which stayed at number #7 in the Oricon Charts for two days and then rose to #5. At the same time, she also released her second photobook titled Hello! Leah.[4].
In March, 2007, Hikaru Utada appeared on TBS music show “Utaban”, recording a message for Dizon. Utada was saying how she felt bad that Dizon has no friends in Japan yet. Utada stated how she heard Dizon liked Utada’s music, and stated she is also a fan of Dizon. To Utada’s surprise, Dizon was standing behind her. Dizon poked her side and said “Arigatōgozaimasu” (Japanese for “Thank you very much”), while Utada screamed in surprise and banged her head on the glass table.
