She began entertainment activities with the intention of pursing music in 1988 under the name Matsumoto Hiromi (松本裕美), then changed it to Katayama Hiromi (片山裕美) shortly after. She was considered as a potential member of ribbon, but this fell through.
In 1993, she began gravure modeling in an attempt to eventually transition to a singing career. She changed her stage name to Aso Hiromi (麻生ひろみ) at this time. This led her to acting and radio work, but she still failed to make a singing debut.
