Career
Leah Dizon received moderate success in America including the cover features of various import car magazines. However, her modeling career in the United States gained her much attention and a fanbase overseas, predominantly in Asia. One year after her pictures were posted up on the internet, she already had 2,000,000 hits from search engines.[1] Following the advice of her fans, Dizon sent a demo tape to a talent agency in Japan and in April of 2006, after being accepted, she immediately moved to Tokyo. In October 2006, she released her first photobook titled Petite Amie (Girlfriend in French), which was ranked as the third best selling photobook that year.[2]
Dizon made her debut as a singer under the record label Victor Entertainment and on February 14, 2007, she released her first CD single and DVD package, Softly (VIZL-216),[3] which peaked at number #7 in the Oricon Weekly Chart. At the same time, she also released her second photobook titled Hello! Leah.[4].
On May 30, 2007, Dizon released her second single Koi Shiyō♪, which also peaked at #7 on the Oricon Weekly Chart. The title track is described as a 'grooving, up-tempo dance song' and the single features 2 B-sides: Could you be the one? and アイシテル～ Love Story.[5] The title track, Koi Shiyō♪ is being used in a Lotte TV ad[6] while Could you be the one? is being used in a PS3 Ninja Gaiden Sigma TV ad, with Dizon starring in both commercials.
