I really hope they don't show up again... they seem like such a mood killer.

if I were them I'd be too embarrassed to go back after what the staff told them. but then again some people have no shame. they were Japanese though, I thought respect was a big deal....

It's likely they will show up again, but, I hope they don't bring their stuff again because it's conveying the wrong message to Ayu's staff. Not Ayu herself, I think she knows that her real fans support HER and not this cash-thing that she seems to represent to some. I'll see some of you guys this evening, again, and all the other fans in spirit :)

I wonder how much long she's staying and I hope she can get things finished in a good time. XD

Omg are you serious? :no poor Ayu, she can't even say no to them :\

Dude, could you post here or tweet or something if you know where and when she is? I'm in LA right now but I have no idea what she's doing today. Pretty please? :nervous

I just got home not too long ago, and I am really happy but sad at the same time after seeing Ayu's latest tweets! Tonight was probably the last night that she could see us...

Anyway, tonight I wasn't even sure if I was going to go, because after getting home from work I was busy doing stuff and felt really tired. Then my boyfriend and I went to a restaurant. I had to use the restroom as we were about to leave, and I felt my phone vibrate and I had 3 text messages from 3 different people, saying Ayu tweeted with my name. I checked Twitter and there it was!

Thankfully the restaurant was like, across the street from where I live, and I was able to get to the recording studio in like 10 minutes hahaha. There were more than 20 people tonight! I thought for sure it would be a quick thing, like sign stuff and then take one group photo, but I was so wrong!

We waited for a while and I met a couple of new people, which was nice. :) Ayu came out and started signing stuff, but I had nothing to sign because A) it was short notice and B) I had enough stuff signed! so I just tried talking to her! I asked how she was, and she said good. I asked how the recording went, and then someone asked if she finished and she made a really happy face and said she finished the album! We all cheered for her and she seemed really happy.

I asked her if she did anything to celebrate Thanksgiving, and she said she just worked. Then she asked us what we did and I said I went to a restaurant and then I went to see a movie. She asked me which movie I saw and I told her it ws Harry Potter. She said she didn't see that one but she saw Bur---- and then she looked at Stan and asked him what movie, and he said "Burlesque" I asked her if she liked it and she wasn't facing me directly, but she turned her head and gave me this LOOK like you know she thought it was a disaster. I just laughed and said "that look is worth more than any words" and she just started laughing.

The poster people were back, and Ayu signed all the stuff they had. I looked at Stan and said "it's the same thing..." and he just nodded his head and was like "yeah." and you can tell he was unhappy. Then Ayu took a bunch of individual photos, which surprised me since there was so many people! I was able to get one. Here it is! She put her arms around me and laid her head on my shoulder, it was so cute!

There were like 3 little Japanese kids and they gave Ayu cards and she was so touched by it, she was just saying "arigatou" and like crouched down so she can be at eye level with them, and it was just so sweet!!! The poster people kept trying to get pictures, so Stan said "Just a couple of pics guys, let's not take advantage of the situation" but I wish he had donem more... then Stan took a group shot of us using my camera, so here's that!

Ayu started saying her goodbyes and got into her car, but then like 10 seconds later she jumped back out and asked if we can take a group picture using her iPhone and if it's OK if she uploads it on Twitter! So we did that and off she went!

Even though it might've been the last time we saw her, I'm so happy and grateful I was able to see her as many times as I did. It's just made me appreciate her so much more not only as an artist, but as a person. I really can't wait to hear what she has in store for us on Love songs!!!

Wow, so they were back? Bleh at them taking advantage of Ayu's kindness. It's pretty awesome how she called for you via Twitter! I'm so glad she finished the album, though now she's going to go back home... at least all of you guys got to have magical experiences with Ayu!

[Oh, and LOL at the Burlesque thing. I wonder if Ayu likes Cher or Xtina...]

Even with the poster people, that was such a nice way to end this whole thing if it was the last time you guys got to see her. She's so incredibly kind, it makes being a fan of her so much easier. :P

and lol @ the Burlesque comment. :laugh

It really was crazy tonight, guys. I showed up around 6 something and waited with new people as well as some regulars hehehehehe. It was a long wait and then my phone went off and it was a twitter update from Ayu, with Cutieismylife's NAME like ZOMG. So I knew she was coming out soon. I was surprised that she did individual pictures today. The poster group were pushy tonight and that made me upset because Stan kept saying "give her some room." I think Ayu knows who her real fans are but it just sucks that we have to deal with people trying to make money, and they should do that some other time you know?

She is the sweetest though because when we were doing our individual pictures, my camera died!! But she waited around for someone to take a photo and that meant a lot to me because everything was hectic and she took that time out to make sure I had gotten a picture. <3 <3

There were kids today too which was awesome, because a little girl had written on a home made card "Ayu Chan" AWWWWWWWWWWWWWW and Ayu hugged the kids and she looked really happy. When Mat asked about the album, some of us said YAY! and we did a clap for her (I know I did!!) and she was so happy to have it done. So excited!

This experience has been so great, especially seeing Ayu and meeting Ayu fans and making new friends and putting faces to names here on AHS. I'm just floored by how kind she is, no words can express it.

Tomorrow might be her last day and I'm sad that I can't make it, but I'm grateful, for having the chance to see her as much as I did. I was extremely lucky. :)

OMG...those poster ppl really pisses me off!! They went back!! :shakehead

So sweet that she talks to you...
Hope i can live it someday

oooh, i'm really excited to hear that the album recordings are all finished!!! :yatta

yay~~ happy for Ayu that she has finally finished her album recording!
can't wait to haer the result soon!

^me too Leny! i'm really excited for this album!

Those poster people are just so...ugh. But it's great that she made this (probably) last meeting so memorable for everyone! :luv2 She really is a great person.

And it's awesome that she tweeted you specifically, cutieismylife! Maybe now you'll be like her fan liaison for all LA visits. :D

Uggh..those poster people =_=.. Anyways, the group picture looks great! The kids are cute. Ayu is so nice to her fans. I'm glad she's done with her album. I can't wait til it comes out!

ARGH THE KIDS ARE ADORABLE!!! :heart

Anyway, those who were there should identify the poster group in this photo and circle out their faces. Let everyone know who these shallow people are! :eviltongu

^lol!!
well it bothered me a lot too... shame on them...
how did you guys noticed they wanted to sell the signed stuff?

Wow, so touching.
This time there were so many asian looking people with you guys. Almost as if she'd be in Asia xD But in Asia she would never tell people, to come visit her at her hotel, I highly doubt this!!

I wish Stan would've just sat down on those awkward poster-guys and wait till they give up and flee :gnash

Ahhh I'm crying from just the thought of all this; I'm so happy for everyone who was able to be so close to Ayu, and see her kindness first hand. She truly has a lot of love for her fans and that love shows that there are good things in this world, despite the bad. I'm so happy for everyone!!
