It was revealed today that actress and model Yamada Yu will be gracing the cover of fashion magazine 'GINGER' (August Edition) with a semi-nude picture.

The shot was taken as part of a special spread called 'New - Body of a Fine Woman to Fall in Love With' which is going to feature a few more semi-nude shots and an extra long interview with the actress. In the interview she talked a lot about her relationship with fellow actor Oguri Shun.

"Pointing out each others flaws and definitely not shying away from confronting each other, those are very important points when starting to build a path you want to walk on together," she stated while looking back at the beginning of their relationship. "The feeling that I want to be pretty for him all the time and that I want to keep on loving him forever are as strong as ever."

After a four-year long relationship, the two of them finally tied the knot in March this year. Yamada is a gorgeous woman with a breathtaking body and not shy of flaunting it in front of the camera. From the shape of her body and her genuine expressions, she's making every reader understand that she's currently living a fulfilled life, both private and career-wise.

Yamada revealed one thing that changed after becoming a newlywed wife. She said, "Although I usually don't put on any make-up when I'm going out for a meal with friends, I'm always getting psyched and dress myself up when I can see him again after several weeks of work. I always want to look pretty for him."

Soon she is going to star in her first drama since their marriage, '?VISION Koroshi ga Mieru Onna' (NTV), in which she plans to show everyone a different side of herself. She explained, "First of all I want everyone to look forward to it, but I'm also personally excited to see in which way I'll be able to present myself."

The August edition of 'GINGER' will go on-sale on June 23rd.
