Career[edit]

From mid 2014 to early 2015, Chihiro was a member of Tsuyogari Sensation under the name Aoi Chihiro (蒼井ちひろ).[2]

In March 2015, Chihiro was revealed as a member of Bish.[3]

In September 2016, Chihiro joined an idol supergroup which had been formed to perform at the 2016 @Jam x Natalie Expo.[4]

In 2017, Chihiro won the WACK General Election, in which the two members with the highest votes would release a solo song, she would therefore release a solo song the following year alongside band-mate Aina who was the runner-up.[5]

In March 2018, Chihiro alongside Aina the End provided vocals for Marty Friedman's "Wasted Tears", on B The Beginning: The Image Album.[6] In July, she joined WACK's second shuffle unit, Holy Shits.[7] In September, nine months after winning the WACK General Election, Chihiro and Aina released the single "Youji to Tsuki no Hime / Kienaide", with Chihiro singing the first song.[8]

In 2019, she began co-hosting Spice Travelers.[9] The TV show spawned a band of the same name which Chihiro joined as a member.[10]

In September 2021, Chihiro voiced the character Azuki Arai in Ragnador.[11] In December, Chihiro joined Spy, a new shuffle unit under WACK produced by Yuki Kashiwagi, after finishing seventh in the Vote! WACK Select 7 competition.[12]

In May 2022, Chihiro featured on This Is Japan's song "Karagara".[13] In August, Chihiro released "Himawari", her first digital single as Cent.[14] Her second digital single, "Suteki na Yokan", was released in February 2023.[15] At Bish's disbandment concert on June 29, it was announced that Chihiro would release her first solo album, Per→cent→age, in August.[16] In November 2023, she will make her stage acting debut under the name Chihiro Katō (加藤千尋) in Kaminari ni 7-kai Uta Rete mo (雷に7回撃たれても).[17]

On January 5, 2024, Chihiro left WACK and signed with Stardust Promotion.[18]
