September 14, 2010, the ruling Democratic Party of Japan will hold a vote on the party representative election, the incumbent Prime Minister Naoto Kan and the 68-year-old former party representative of the Democratic Party, the former director general of the Ozawa Ichiro fierce competition, if Ozawa Ichiro was elected, he will replace Kan Naoto to become prime minister. However, less than a week from the election, Japan's famous gossip magazine "Weekly Fumiharu" shocking revelations: 68-year-old Ozawa Ichiro even in a hotel in Kyoto with the 45-year-old beauty of the love of the General Assembly members, Aoki Ai rendezvous. Analysts say that this sudden "sex scandal" may make his "prime ministerial dream" finally dashed.

The innocent Aoki Ai is one of the most highly regarded of the "Ozawa girl army," a former singer and star who also served as a senator and was so close to Ichiro Ozawa that he promoted her last year to become one of his 14 vice presidents. Weekly Bunshun claimed that Ichiro Ozawa had a rendezvous with Ai Aoki, who is 23 years younger than him, at a hotel in Kyoto, and publicized a number of photographs. The rendezvous was secretly captured by a TV reporter in mid-August. Ichiro Ozawa was hosting a party in a second-floor private room at a Japanese restaurant and hotel, and after the attendees left, Ai Aoki entered the room. When Ai Aoki reappeared on the screen, she had changed into a bathrobe, and she and Ichiro Ozawa appeared to be holding hands in a relaxed manner.

The latest issue of Weekly Shinchou, another leading Japanese gossip magazine, also focuses on Aoki's "secret love affair," but reports that it's not Ichiro Ozawa who is dating Aoki, but rather a married secretary under Ichiro Ozawa's command.
