Hana
no Hime started doing duet covers through the internet for fun. The two met at
the JPOPFEST held last year on March 11, 2012. That was the first time the two
met in person though they have known each other because they are both part of
the same text clans.
When
Hello!Project Philippines was going to hold a concert, Hana no Hime was invited
to perform and that was the first time they performed live on stage in front of
an audience.
If
you translate their name “Hana no Hime” in English it means “Flower Princess”
Hana
no Hime’s members are: Riza Iwasaki, a half Japanese-Filipino from Tarlac who
is 22 years old and Trina Espinosa also known as Ritsu, an AB Communication
Arts student from Cavite who is 19 years old. The two loves covering Japanese
Songs mostly from talents under the agency Hello! Project but they also do
covers from various J-pop artists/ groups like Flower.
