Career

2002–2004: Hello! Project Kids and ZYX

Umeda was born in Minami-ku, Yokohama, Japan. In 2002, she auditioned for Hello! Project Kids with the song "White Love" by Speed. Her audition tape was aired on Morning Musume's variety show Hello! Morning.[2] She was placed in the group with 14 other girls.[3] In the same year, she appeared in the movie Koinu Dan no Monogatari.[4][5]

In 2003, Umeda became a member of the subgroup ZYX along with Mari Yaguchi from Morning Musume, Maimi Yajima, Saki Shimizu, Megumi Murakami, and Momoko Tsugunaga.[6] They released their debut single, "Iku ZYX! Fly High" on August 6, 2003,[7] followed by "Shiroi Tokyo" on December 10, 2003.[8] Later, in 2004, she participated in singing "All for One & One for All!", a collaboration single released by all Hello! Project artists under the name "H.P. All Stars."[9]

2005–2009: Cute

Main article: Cute (Japanese idol group)

In 2004, Berryz Kobo was created with the intention of rotating all of the members of Hello! Project Kids to make time for school,[10] but the idea was later scrapped, and the remaining girls who were not chosen were rebranded under the name Cute on June 11, 2005.[11] On August 1, 2009, Hello! Project announced that Umeda was graduating from the company on October 25, 2009, the last day of Cute's concert tour, to become a fashion model.[12]

2010–present: Solo career

In 2010, Umeda was signed into a model agency called Illume Models.[13] She made her runaway debut in Girls Award Summer 2010[14] and continued to appear as a regular model at every seasonal show until 2013. She also appeared at the Tokyo Girls Collection Spring/Summer 2012 show.[15]

In 2013, Umeda left modeling to return to music and signed with Brand-New Music.[16] She released her first solo album Erika on February 12, 2014, with the lead single "Crush On You."[1][17] In 2018, she became the advisor for the girl group Turtle Lily.[18]

Personal life

On August 15, 2021, Umeda announced on her blog and Instagram account that she had married Hirokasu Goto, a radio personality from Niigata Prefecture, and that she was pregnant with their first child.[19] Their little boy was born on January 1, 2022.
