Let's make this birthday one to remember.

42 years old (Born on October 28, 1982)

Happy Birthday to the spectacular Mai Kuraki! From inspiring hits like "Secret of My Heart" and soulful melodies in detective Conan soundtracks, your timeless voice has made us laugh, cry—and sing embarrassingly loud during karaoke nights. Your ability to create music that transcends generations is nothing short of magical.

Recently celebrating over two decades in music with continued chart-topping albums proves you're truly unstoppable. Here's wishing you another year filled with catchy songs, joyful concerts (and fewer high heels mishaps on stage). May today's cake taste sweeter than all those well-deserved successes—happy birthday from one eternally grateful fan club member!
