Model Yu Yamada has been fending off questions about her errant boyfriend, Shun Oguri. Gossip rag Friday recently reported that the bad-boy actor had crowned an evening of drinking with a visit to a love hotel with a female companion. The magazine alleged that the pair arrived in Oguri’s agency car, entering the establishment via a rear entrance, and were seen leaving together 90 minutes later, at which point they took separate taxis home. Sources say that after the story was published, Yamada (right) left Japan to spend some time in America.
