Early life and career
Biography
Goriki was born on 27 August 1992 in Hodogaya-ku, Yokohama, Kanagawa Prefecture.[citation needed]
Career beginnings
Ayame Goriki liked to stand out when she was young. When she was in elementary school, she told her parents that she wanted to become a model.[1] At the age of 7 she had a professional photographer take a snapshot at an amusement park, for a magazine, which lead her to becoming a model. Goriki also participated in the 8th Japan Beautiful Girl Contest in 2002, but did not progress past the second round.[2] While at the event, she was recruited by the Japanese talent agency Oscar Promotion.[3]
From February 2008 to May 2013, she worked as an exclusive model for the fashion magazine Seventeen.
In January 2011, she appeared on the Fuji TV monthly drama Taisetsu na Koto wa Subete Kimi ga Oshiete Kureta. To play the role, she changed her appearance noticeably by growing her hair long. In some profiles, Taisetsu na Koto wa Subete Kimi ga Oshiete Kureta is listed as her debut work. However, her official debut work is ChocoMimi (TV Tokyo), premiering in 2007. In July of the same year, she starred in a TV drama "Cosmic Star" for TV Tokyo's IS.
Since then, she has appeared in commercials for Mister Donut, Sekisui House, and Lunch Pack (Yamazaki Baking). In November 2011, Nikkei Trendy selected her as "Face of the Year".[4]
Goriki starred in a TV drama for the first time, appearing on The Case Files of Biblia Bookstore (Fuji TV), which started on January 14, 2013.
In 2016, she performed live for the first time in the Meiji-za November performance of Sisters of the Gion.
Voice acting
In 2012, she voiced Elizabeth Shaw in the movie Prometheus. In 2014, she also voiced Mystique in X-Men: Days of Future Past.
Music debut
In February 2013, she debuted as a singer in June 2013 with the song "Tomodachi Yori Daiji na Hito" (友達より大事な人; lit. "More Than a Friend").[5] Prior to the release of the CD on July 10, it was used as a Yamazaki Baking Lunch Pack CM song.[6]
