Singer, chef, actress and competitive eater Gal Sone appeared on the TBS variety show “Nakai Masahiro’s no Kinyoubi no Smile Tachie e 2-jikan SP” broadcast on the 5th. She revealed the moment she was detained at an airport in Hawaii and thought her life was over.

About 15 years ago, Gal Sone visited Hawaii for work. She was asked to show her passport at the immigration inspection, and when her face was compared with the photo, she was confronted by an immigration official.

She was reportedly stopped and taken to a separate room. Strong-looking men are being held in the same room, and they are even suspected of possessing drugs. Gal Sone said, “Oh, I thought my life was over” and “Oh, I’m going to get arrested? That’s scary, what should I do?”.

Afterwards, an immigration official came into the room and asked, “Who are you?”.

Because dhe had removed all her make-up on the flight to Hawaii and was completely bare-faced, she was told that her face looked different from the one in his passport photo. Therefore, Gal Sone spent about three hours completely recreating the makeup in that room. She said, “Isn’t this real?” and then they let her through, and everything went smoothly. Talent Fujimoto Miki, who was on the special with her, was surprised at the amount of makeup she put on, saying, “It took three hours?”.
