Actress Ueto Aya (25), currently in Softbank commercials, and actor Matsuda Shota (25) both appeared at a press conference for a new product announcement on November 4th, 2010. Ueto did not comment on her relationship with EXILE’s Hiro (41).

With the new model smartphone in hand, Ueto asked CEO Son, “Please be my text buddy.” “There’s an interesting rumor about you, Aya,” CEO Son implying about her hot romance. She sarcastically laughed, “It’s because there’s an old man here.”

After Ueto posed for a photo session, the press asked her “Is your relationship with Hiro going well?” Ueto quietly left with a smile.
