LOL, The only song I like of Ayumi's is Heaven, I actually have this on my Ipod. But her Image is sooooo weird, has she has plastic surgery, she looks like shes trying to look like Celine Dion IMO.

I admit she is very good live , as I have seen from these videos. But the last video is like she is trying to be Madonna from her Frozen era. I think Ayumi copycats other singers looks.

I still think she sounds like something from a hello kitty convention, especially in the song hope and pain but then again thats just my music choice.

She seems quite big in Japan and lot of other parts of the world but IMO her music isnt very up to date, The lyrics are good but the beats arnt something I would buy. But then again thats just me. She has many fans and seems like a nice girl. Thanks for showing me those Videos though, I had not seen some of them before. :smile:

No Ayumi has not had plastic surgery. She looked into it because while she was modelling she got dropped from it because she was told she had a weird-looking face and would be better on radio. She decided to not have the surgery though.

Ayumi doesn't copy other people, the image in the last video was based on traditional Japanese style. She looks nothing like Madonna in that performance anyway, except that they both have straight black hair.

She does have a connection with Hello Kitty, considering they have turned her into a character called Ayu-Pan.

Her beats aren't outdated, they're unique. I dunno maybe you're into the more mainstream, everyday heard beats used by most artists in the charts.

I highly doubt she's trying to look like Celine Dion.... I don't see the comparison. She's more original than Celine 'Warbler' Dion anyway.

(That's the first she ever composed by herself, under the name CREA)

And the emotion she puts into her songs, it's unreal... watch this:

I haven't yet found an artist who can compare to her, both in her performance and her quality of music.
If you know of someone then by all means show me an example, but I doubt you can find one.

I still can't see the Hello Kitty thing you're going on about.... especially in Hope or Pain... seriously... what?
And are you going to base all of her songs on one?
Remembering she's done over 150 different songs right? Each one of those songs unique and equally thought about.

Ok, Im going to be brutally honest here, IMO her songs sound childish and she sounds like a baby singing (Im sorry to her fans). She does have a weird-looking face and her modelling agency was right.

I dont think you can even compare Ayumi to Madonna because Madonna is far better, that is my example of an artist who has been going longer than her, is a global superstar and has had countless number one hits.

She looks very much like a doll and has a chipmunks voice (Im sorry to say).

Here are some photos of her before and after surgery (If thats the case)

These are just MY opinions about her, Im not a fan.

Her songs sound childish?!

What part of her songs sound childish... are you seriously telling me that this sounds childish:

http://www.veoh.com/videos/e152911q6kKt2nS

And Madonna?! Freaking Madonna?! The woman who admitted to only being able to get to the top by sleeping her way there?
She's only a pop star as well

Ayumi can range from doing Bubblegum pop to ballads to rock songs

Of course Madonna's going to have more hits than Ayumi because she's been around for double the time Ayumi has, plus she's almost twice Ayumi's age.

But let's talk about number one's shall we:

So from her first major label debut (LOVEppears) up until her most recent single (talkin' 2 myself) she's had:

30 number one singles
17 consecutive number singles to date
All eight of her original studio albums have been Number ones
Sold over 45 million records in Japan alone
She is the top selling solo and female artist in Japan
Also the forth top selling Japanese artist in history
Her single sales have passed the 20 million mark, making her the first solo and female singer to do that
She has won more awards than I care to mention

She has done all of this on her own back. Her father left without a word when she was very young (it is rumoured he committed suicide but don't quote me on that)
Her grandmother (the woman who primarily raised her because her mother was working so much) died when Ayumi first released a single


Her songs can range from this:

http://www.veoh.com/videos/v1072262hR8RnrYP

To this:

http://www.veoh.com/videos/v1241679K7Q5w8CZ

And also this:

This is a better picture of Ayu younger:

And then her now:

And of course she's going to look different... it's called growing up

And don't agree with the modelling agency. Modelling is what's wrong with this world, modelling is why girls are dying everyday trying to achieve that unattainable figure. If someone's just a little bit different then what... they're ugly? Weird?

Ok, good for you !, if you like Ayumi please make your own thread about her, this one is about Leona NOT Ayumi .

I've never even heard of this Ayumi singer!

Leona is fantastic, the best thing to ever come from a reality talent contest! This years X Factor has been a total disappointment because nobody compares to Leona.

Love her hair in the above NYC pics too, she looks fab!
