its happy to hear this. :)
at least i'm sure ayu is the ONE. :yes

yes, i have to say, she will never half-ass anything in her life... everything she puts out is 150% of her effort... she will do a lot for her fans, and that's why she's one of the best artists in Japan... she's probably the hardest working person in Japan, probably more than the emporer!!!


Ayu ====> :thud

fans ====> :luv2 :love

great news, ayu is so unique, no one can ever replace her

nice letter

Hrm.. time to decipher which PV cost so much..

fairyland.. or alterna. :3 lol [...]

Zeo

Thanks devilayu! :shimmy

truehappiness --> I didn't think about that actually, I just kind of assumed it would be for "fairyland." But it could very well be for "alterna". Either way, I'm trying to imagine how they would spend $2 million! It should be pretty shpiffay...!

*sniff* can´t describe my feelings right now with words but im really in a great mood ^^

hrm...i thought they said it was specifically for fairyland? that'd make sense as that is the pv that has a making of clip included. i'm curious too, to see how they spend all that money. :)

interesting

now we know how much those MVs cost

Yay! I'm so excited :D

omg im really happy to read this article! :D

its really a surprise for max to write such things about ayu.. now that he is a president.. the relationship between them is really special.. he truly believes in ayu and now i do believe that max's confidence and support is the backbone of ayu success... the way he write is very fun... lol! :D but he gotta becareful of 'favoring' ayu too much.. i mean.. avex is not just about them two.

thanx phantoma for telling me that! Yeah.. of coz she work hard on everything she does! If not, she's not that ayu that we know! LOL!
And I totally agree that ayu is irreplacable!

Thanks for the translation...I am so happy after reading the article.And i am shock the amount they spend on a MV...

To be in her mid-thirties and still continue! See! She won't quit!!! I'm so so glad. And I'm so so glad that Max supports Ayu so much :D That's so sweet.

And I hope there will be an album. Just can't wait.

2 million bucks for a PV...tats abit of a waste of muney...lol should give charity instead... 2million...erm...maybe in the pv she wears lots of diamonds n then run about under the sun.. n then dance at the beach...n throw those diamonds into the sea...tats y cost 2 million bucks...wahaha!

WOOOAAHHH....first of all...*listening to shimatani hitomi - kuon = quiet touched song* reading that letter REALLY REALLY makes me all fluffy inside. x3;; I mean, max has SO much confidence in ayu and it sounds like they're SUCH good buddies!! Reading it just makes me wanna hug them both. xDD They're so cool. *can't stop smirking* I love them both. x] boo to tabloids!! whoo~~

and...DANNG...the pv is gonna be EXPENSIVE!!! 0_0

haha what a nice guy :D

It's shot in Hawaii so the spent a lot of money on plane tickets for the WHOLE staff (lots of people) and Ayu went in 1st class. The hotel for the whole staff, a really expensive one and just that it's a lot of money. They also used a hellicopter.

But most of Ayu's videos are shot overseas, aren't they? In LA. Hawaii can't be that much more expensive than LA. I suppose if the video features a bunch of her friends and they were all brought out and put up in a really expensive hotel. But I'm sure they found other ways to blow all that dough.
