Early Life and Background
The Kano Sisters say they are half-sisters with different mothers. There is also a 3rd "sister" who initially made appearances with the two. She eventually withdrew from the scene, according to industry sources, and now only intermittently appears with them. The lack of resemblance between them as well as their refusal to answer any questions about their age (even their reported ages are speculation) or past fuels speculation the three are not sisters at all, but just another group of tarento with a carefully crafted gimmick. Within Japan it is rumored that before becoming celebrities, they were high priced call girls for the jet set level.

Early to bed and early to rise
Make a man healthy and wealth and wise.

—Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)
