That just looked silly! They should have might as well used another cover in that country, or at least hired someone that was better at using photo shop...this pic made my day!

I think that's kind of rude to call a whole country stupid just because they are more cautious of lots of skin showing... In fact, it's almost offensive.

Sorry, changed it;)
Still, we're in like 2006, is there really such a big deal to show your belly? Some countries are stuck in the 17th century it seems..

yeah well what can u do xD?

Well duh, there was no copying involved seeing as how the concept is not TOO uncommon. HOWEVER, whats with these people going:

"Uhh, no. They're waaaaaaaaay different. I don't even know how you can begin to compare them, you psychopath! I hate noobs who make threads like this."

I mean, COME ON...

Who said they hated "noobs"? You come on :\ thank you fabricating words and placing emphasis on things that are non existent.

People got the point that the two covers were similar because the girls had leaves covering them. But people were stating that the concept was different.

If you’re going to be rude at least be rude about something that’s there. Like how people (including myself) make some pointless comments that veer off topic.

And ayu is not the first one to brought this concept/theme up(leaves covering body-semi nude)?

LOL :laugh :lmfao

Where do you find these pics

OMG she looks like some random hedge :bchuck

Cory: I think Shakira meant it both ways. She can be pretty twisted sometimes :swink

Lmao, it was meant to be a double meaning.. :( Apparently you don't understand the double meaning?

That baby....is so scary!

But I like how Shakira mimicked those two paintings!

OH NO!

Ayumi saw that in the future Shakira would make this album so she copied it because she can never come up with her own styles.

yeah..ayu stood for peace & love...but that shakira for Adam and Eve-ish...

actually i think that "adam and eve-ish" looks ugly...and dirty, as if it was made by a bad computer picture maker

Yeah, the covers look alike, but it's not like it's a very original idea...

Hey do you think that is really a copy??????

How ridiculous!! they are just looking similar..nothing else. they are only covers with BIG heads...and smiles...nothing else!!!!!! you know, almost every cover of utada's releases are only a big head!

Please don't talk more about COPYING!
i believe many of the so-called "copiers" are innocent!! we are all humans, sometimes our thought might hit the same!!!

Besides ayu is innocent too! people has created some so-called "evidence" in order to say that ayu is so, and she also copies american artists! those evidence are rubbish of course!
How can you say that ayu has copied madonna just becuz ayu has worn the same middle-aged style hat with madonna????how can you say that ayu has copied the others just becuz they have got the same pose???? if so, we are copying each other everyday, becuz we are having the same pose in the toilet-- sitting there!

But! for Jolin that Taiwan idol...someone who is always hit the same with ayu...and of course after ayu...is definitely a copier!

That was a joke.

@truehappiness: bingo :laugh!
This thread is getting ridiculous.
And Ayu didn't come after Madonna? Right :rolleyes .
I don't get why some members can get all hyped up and hyperventilate when it comes to Jolin. I mean, Ayu isn't always original. She borrows just as much as other artists do.

ayu usually recreate when she thinks something is really nice and she wants to try it...but for jolin, she usually gets everything from ayu directly without doing any changes

*i hope i didn't change this thread into "did jolin copied ayu?"*

An example would be nice.

yeah everyone copies everyone else...and the horrible vicious cycle never ends...just like, the days of our lives.

we should put this thread into the game section and call it the soap opera thread. We can have injustices and betrayals and credability issues all over the place, debates will be heated. People will be angry, there will be mucho crying, and it will be hot... just like...

the days of our lives.
