Tomomi Kahala, sometimes spelled Kahara 華原ともみ (Kahara Tomomi, Tomomi Kahala, sometimes spelled Kahara 華原ともみ?) (born Shimogawara Tomomi on August 17, 1974 in Tokyo), is a Japanese J-pop singer. She is famous for working with Tetsuya Komuro who gave her much success in the 1990s, which ironically led to her deep dip in popularity after 1999, the year in which she released her first non-TK produced album, One Fine Day. Tomomi Kahala and Tetsuya Komuro dated for a few years, but they suffered from personal problems which led to their breakup. After a period of sickness, Kahala's talent agency kicked her out on June 29, 2007
