The mom herself is 59 now, making her much younger than Yoko Ono. The daughter in question was probably the first teenage multi-millionaire in Japanese history.

Whoops. That's true, I forgot Yoko Ono must be pretty old now.
Well, I don't want to spam the thread with random guesses, hope someone else knows though!

Mua ha ha, I found it.
It's Utada Hikaru's mom! I think she sings more than fairly well! I mean Utada Junko, aka Fuji Keiko, though I also like Utada Hikaru!

Thanks for your participation, everyone! We have got 3 out of 4 now.

The guy in question #3 is now in the position that less than 50 people in Japan are in.

Hint: Politics.
