Biography
Ai Takahashi was received after listening to “ Love Audition 21 ”, at which Tsunku noted her high level as a vocalist , which served as her pass to the group.

Takahashi debuted on the single “ Mr. Moonlight ~ Ai no BIG BAND ~ ", the first full album with her participation was the fourth album of MM.

Also in the song "Joshi Kashimashi Monogatari", in her verse she sings about her accent.
