Profile
Osaka-born KANAE is the elder Watanabe sister and performs with KAZUE as DJ WATANABE SISTERS. Her work spans dance, DJ sets, vocals and modelling.
Reader-model work for magazines including JELLY and S Cawaii! preceded catalogue and fashion-event assignments. The sisters also worked on contact-lens and jewellery collaborations and hosted on block.fm.
The 2016 Team K vocal project Super Girl is an entry point to her recording work. The official 2027 solo-calendar announcement, published in October 2026, documents her continuing photographic projects.
At October 2026’s PARTY BUS fan event, her DJ work moved between a bus and Shimbashi’s Grand Hammer. Afterwards she described playing for about three hours in total, her longest DJ day so far. September’s ALIBULA × Yumetenbo collection also revisited a fashion company the sisters had modelled for, this time through their own brand.
