"Tobi"), known for his signature blonde wig and prince persona, and dancer Romanesque Miyamae (ロマネスク宮前, Romanesuku Miyamae, a.k.a. "Miya"), known for her French maid/drag queen style, large blonde afro wig, and white-painted lips, Les Romanesques have appeared in many advertising campaigns in France, including for Mazda, and released several singles and albums. Their song "Théorème d'amour" was used in the independent production France Five. Les Romanesques also have appeared at various gay pride events, such as the 2009 Heritage of Pride and the 2010 PrideFest. The group achieved national fame in France after appearing on Incroyable Talent (France's Got Talent) in its 4th season.[2][3] The YouTube posting of their performance became the #1 viewed video in all of France, and #4 worldwide. Ishitobi is a graduate of Keio University's economics program while Miyamae is a graduate of Waseda University's human sciences program.
