Hi Everyone I would first like to thank everyone for all of your kind support. Regarding this recent scandal, I remain perturbed and horrified by the groundless reports about my involvement in all of this. I have no idea why someone would falsely use my name and maliciously hurt my reputation. It is also upsetting to see how many reports in the media have insinuated (and some now even blatantly state) that it is me in the video, even though the actual participants Anya Ayoung-Chee (Miss Trinidad &Tobago 2008) and Wyatt Gallery have made public statements that it is NOT me. My current representatives are currently looking into the facts of the case and are conducting an investigation, after which they will be taking the appropriate steps accordingly. And to clear the distortion of the facts, I was not released by my former representative company IBG Japan, Co. Ltd. (the managing office of the Miss Universe Japan event) because of this scandal. �I had in fact left them 6 months ago and switched to a different agency on May 15th, 2009 to pursue a career directed towards sports journalism as well as in modeling. You don't have to have the eye of an eagle to see that it is not me in the tape. As my conscience remains absolutely clear, I am putting this all behind me and am looking forward to taking on various challenges in the future while upholding my dignity and integrity that is associated with my title of 2008 Miss Universe Japan. Thank you all again for your support. Hiroko Mima
