Popularly known as Kyon-kyon, Koizumi made her breakthrough on the TV audition show Staa Tanjou (A Star is Born) in 1981 and her debut followed the next year. The usual string of slickly packaged pop singles, albums, TV dramas and movies followed. She first appeared on the annual New Year's Eve extravaganza Kohaku Uta Gassen (Red-White Song Battle) in 1984, just a week after her movie debut. In 1987, she won the award for the best-selling single in Japan. She was cast quite out of character as the villain in 1997's hit movie Odoru Daisosasen (Bayside Shakedown), which starred Oda Yuji.
Kyoko is one of the few idols from the early '80s to have survived with her image and popular appeal intact. She became less active in her acting career following her marriage to popular actor Nagase Masatoshi in 1995 (she met Nagase when he was taking photos for the magazine AnAn, to which she contributes). But she remained in the public eye through regular TV commercial appearances. While she's old enough to play the stereotypical CM mother, her image remains that of the perky girl next door. Her divorce from Nagase came in early 2004, around the time that she was receiving a lot of offers to get back into acting more. This difficulty in combining marriage and work seems to be a real hurdle for many women in Japanese show business and one of the two usually has to suffer.

小泉今日子 Lyrics
Heaven 花びらが 開いてゆくように 目覚めれば あなたがいるの それだけで 何もいらないわ 幸せよ Ah こんなに 朝の光の中 …
La La La… 降り出した雨に 騒ぐ街 あなたは どこかで 雨やどり 水たまりに映る ぬれたヒール 赤いワンピースも だいなしだわ 降り…
mother MARIA 夕暮れの チャペルの鐘 胸に響く Ah 切なく 重い扉 そっと おせば 怖いくらい Ah 優しい 夢をみる 少女のような…
グッド・バイ・マイ・ラブ グッバイ・マイ・ラブ この街角で グッバイ・マイ・ラブ 歩いてゆきましょう あなたは右に 私は左に 振り向いたら負けよ…
ドライブ 星空を走る 流星の赤いクーペ 不良ね ほんの少しだけ はじめての タイプ あのカーブ のり越えたら 新しい風が吹くわ 星…
夜 夜の 街は嫌いよ ろくな事がないから ほらね イヤな男に どうしてなの 会ったわ 抱いてみてよ 昔みたいに 抱いてみてよ…
涙の行方 ゆうべ流した涙 あなたの胸の中の 秘密にしてね ずっと 強がってきた 私の愛し方に 似合わないから 指のすき間 すべり落…
