She joined Morning Musume in 2003 along with Eri Kamei, Miki Fujimoto and Reina Tanaka, which all made their debuts with Morning Musume in the group's nineteenth single, Shabondama. Since 2005 she was assigned as mentor to 7th generation member Koharu Kusumi.
Michishige is also a member of the Hello! Project unit Ecomoni along with former Morning Musume member Rika Ishikawa.
When Michishige passed the audition to join Morning Musume, Tsunku, Morning Musume's producer, wrote in a comment about her that her singing is weak. After the audition Michishige has taken voice lessons to improve her singing, but even she admits that her own singing is still bad.
She portrays an extremely narcissistic image of herself in TV shows, often calling herself the cutest member in Morning Musume and saying that her cuteness overwhelms her bad singing voice.[1] In one of the of the skits known as Hello! Morning Theatre on their variety show, Hello! Morning, she is best known as playing a character known as "Ichiban Kawaii." (Cutest)
"Usa-chan Peace" (Bunny Peace) is a phrase which Michishige uses to identify herself. While saying "Usa-chan peace" she holds her index and middle fingers in V shapes next to her ears.
