Rumi Shishido (宍戸 留美 Shishido Rumi?, born November 6, 1973) is a Japanese actress, voice actress, independent recording artist, cameraman, illustrator, and media personality from Hiroshima, Japan. She was formerly a mainstream idol signed onto Sony Records before she left her management in 1992.
Shishido was born in Kitakyūshū, Fukuoka Prefecture, Japan as the only daughter of an old Samurai family; her grandfather was a buddhist monk. When she was two, she moved to Hiroshima and grew up there. She was a cheerleader at school.
In 1989, Shishido was selected as the winner of a contest hosted by Lotte's and appeared on their television commercial in the following year. Her first single, titled "Cosmic Rendezvous" (コズミック・ランデブー Kozumikku Randebū?), was released in 1990. Known by her idol nickname "Run Run" (るんるん Run Run?), she also joined the members of Lip's and Rakutenshi to form the short-lived idol group Nanatsuboshi, although it did not interfere with her own solo work.
