Nana Natsume is a Japanese film actress, a former AV idol and a well-known celebrity in Japan. Natsume was born on January 23, 1980 in Sakai, Osaka, Japan. After graduating from high school, she worked as a dental assistant and real estate saleswoman. She began her entertainment career with appearances in On Girls' File and Cure Sick Night, local late night television shows in Osaka. She was scouted for work in pornography in 2002. Moving to Tokyo, she appeared in photo features for several magazines including Shukan Gendai and Weekly Post. She was also featured in a photobook entitled 727 in July 2002 and in an "image" DVD called nana which was released in November 2002. Natsume appeared for the Soft On Demand adult video company as the host of their AV Awards ceremony at Tokyo's Shinjuku Century Hyatt hotel on November 26, 2003. Her debut video, entitled simply Debut, was released in January, 2004. Sexually conservative and inexperienced, Natsume notes of her first video, "Just how embarrassed I look during the entire thing." She says her first experiences with both paizuri and masturbation occurred during AV shoots. One of her videos, Final Pussy!, released in January 2005 is notable for its science fiction theme. Directed by Noboru Iguchi, Natsume plays a dangerous woman who is the result of a military experiment gone wrong. When she is sexually aroused, guns burst from her breasts, killing her partner. Special makeup effects were by Yoshihiro Nishimura, well known in Japanese "gore" cinema.
