Applications to become Japanese billionaire Yusaku Maezawa's girlfriend have topped 20,000, streaming service AbemaTV said, ahead of its documentary on his search for a "life partner" to take on his moon voyage.
Maezawa, who will be the first private passenger on Elon Musk's SpaceX, has already generated huge social media buzz with a $9 million giveaway to his followers that secured his position as Japan's foremost Twitter celebrity.
According to Reuters, the show's application site now includes a "love diagnostic test" where potential entrants can test their compatibility with the entrepreneur.
Multiple-choice questions include "if you rode in a private jet where would you go?" with users presented with a photo of the billionaire varying from happy to sad depending on their score.
The program dubbed "Full Moon Lovers" is targeting younger viewers who are turning off TV.
