* Momoko was featured in a magazine that talked about Hello! Project members that came from poor families (Fujimoto Miki and Kago Ai were also featured). The article stated that they all became idols to get rich, but details were unconfirmed and didn't include interviews from reliable sources, so the article is considered rumor.

* She stated in the Berryz Koubou concert ~Sono Subete no Ai ni~ that her best subject in school was Music, and that her favorite food is sea urchin.

* In October 2009, Momoko was featured on the cover of Rajio Bangumi-hyou's Autumn 2009 issue (ラジオ番組表 2009秋号).

Project members also ranked, including Michishige Sayumi in 6th place, Niigaki Risa & Kamei Eri in 7th (for their co-hosted radio show), and Tanaka Reina in 10th.
* Satoda Mai once praised Momoko by saying, "She is a genuine idol, I think she is a genius at that. It's like a god descended into her.'"
* Momoko once asked Morning Musume's Michishige Sayumi if she was ever told that playing the cutesy idol role was painful to watch, how long she planned to continue with the character, and other questions related to their shared burden of playing that role within their respective groups. Because Momoko asked the question seriously, Sayumi was glad that Momo was comfortable with talking to her about her problems.
* Morning Musume's Takahashi Ai often slaps Momoko's butt.
* Because of the meaning of her name, Momoko is the "peach" in Berryz Koubou ("momo" translating to "peach"). She and Sugaya Risako are the only two with fruits in their names (the symbol standing for "ri" in her name can also be read as "nashi," a type of pear).
