On this day, she relayed her love for speed, stating, "I'm the type that likes sports and enjoy speed.  When I got the casting offer for the program, I realized I would be the MC for an audition [program] that chooses the nation's first rally drivers, so I became curious. I stated that I would like to do it without asking questions or nitpicking.

"I'm the type who often goes on drives all the time, and I like cars, so the car I had even driven just before this was a sports car.  The car type is a fast one, and I like fast cars.  I think it's an honor that I got to try this with them.  It is always interesting and fun to watch over the races.  I eagerly anticipate the added fun of a dramatic scene."

The variety show will air on October 17 with nine pre-recorded episodes.  The tenth and final episode will air live on December 19 to determine the final victor.
