Takei Emi, a multi-talented individual, was born on December 25th, 1993, in Nagoya, Aichi Prefecture. At a young age, she was determined to pursue a career in fashion modeling, which she informed her parents about while still in junior high school. In 2006, she entered the prestigious 11th Japan Bishojo Contest and emerged victorious. This achievement led to her appearance in the November 2006 edition of Seventeen magazine, and in 2007, she signed an exclusive contract with the publication, gracing the cover in February of the same year.
Takei Emi's career continued to flourish as she began appearing in television serials in 2008. She also explored the world of music, becoming a singer and promoting corporate products in Japan. In 2015, she started dating fellow singer and actor Takahiro, a member of the popular group Exile, with their relationship going public in 2017. The couple co-starred in the TV drama Senryokugai Sosakan before tying the knot in 2017. Interestingly, Takei Emi was pregnant at the time of her marriage, a development that led to controversy with her management agency, Oscar Promotion, which reportedly charged her for "damages" resulting from her decision to stop acting and focus on her family.
