Ami "Jane" Onuki (大貫 亜美, Ōnuki Ami?), often thought of as the "cute" side of the Japanese pop group, Puffy, was born on September 18, 1973 in Machida, Tokyo, Japan.
She has co-hosted several Japanese TV shows with the "cool" half of Puffy, Yumi Yoshimura, including the talk show Pa-Pa-Pa-Pa-Puffy, part of a morning show called Saku-Saku, and the currently-running Hi Hi Puffy Bu, in which Ami and Yumi perform one given task each week to comedic effect.
On Hi Hi Puffy AmiYumi, she is vocally portrayed by Japanese-born American actress, Janice Kawaye. In the show, her hair is pink and done in the classic odango atama hairstyle.
She married TERU, the vocalist of the Japanese rock group GLAY, and gave birth to a baby girl in 2003. Rumors of a divorce have persisted on the internet, particularly in the West. These rumors have mostly been ignored by the Japanese media and have never been confirmed by Ami or Teru.
