Arama has an article about Ayu's appearance. I believe it translates all the questions she was asked and what her responses were.:luv2

Ayumi Hamasaki Makes First Variety Appearance in 4 Years

This website is like a disease. Please stop making arama look like a legit site. The things which are said there, are even worse what people dare to say on AHS sometimes.
Also this post is not entirely sweet and nice towards Ayu.

(I know you just wanna help because they explain the interview, so know I did not come for you.)

I can't with Arama... Such a toxic place.

yep sooo true! I liked the article seemed like being nice translating the interview but then when it stated that Ayu lied about her phone then NO! and those comments gosh

about Ayu, I used to watch Shabekuri with other guest such as Keiko Kitagawa ans it was so much fun and relax. but with Ayu as people said they seemed to treat her like a VIP and afraid if they go so far she will not like it or answer them :P wonder why Ayu seemed holding back not like when shes on stage during concert MC, she was more relaxed and cool and funny (shes more comfortable in her own concert :yes)

I don't think people get the difference between plain phone and non-plain phone case.

I really don't understand why some people dislike her so much. What did she ever do to anger people? It's not like I think it's impossible for people to not fall in love with her, it's just the blatant hatred and downright catty talk they use.

Is is really just because she's rich and famous? Is that all it takes for some people's fires to get lit?

I think it was some kind of mockery? Passive aggressive? I don't know how to say it. But it didn't feel nice when they treated her like this.

I can't believe they even have time to write about a "phone case scandal." :no

Well I wasn't planning on sharing it here but I thought that the English summary of the show would be helpful to those that are interested. I don'y even go to arama actually. But sometimes their articles appear when I look for Ayu news.
And that's fine. I'm not taking offense. I know what you're saying. It's not a respectable site since they seem to let certain biases go unchecked.
Also, let's not waste energy on the comments posted there.:laugh

I think most people have never been exposed to the ayu many of her fans like a lot. And even some fans get bogged down with the toxic rumors, comments, news, etc it almost seems easy to demonize her. It's sad though.

read some nasty comments abt Ayumi being fake in the TC show, boy she does have lots of 'past'fans...

anyway perhaps only time will tell

it's so sad that random sad trolls take the time to post negative comments, especially when she's such a sweet woman, and appearing on a light-hearted comedy show... it really says more about the ****s that post those comments than anything else.

ayu is still one of the most popular and loved people in japan. check any video of her on youtube it's crammed with positive praise and fans posting how much they love her. her social media accounts too.

it's so sad really that people post such negativity, presumably because they saw someone else post some BS and decided it was no longer 'cool' to be an ayu fan?

I really do give up on the internet sometimes. lol.

I read comments like
"avex, what happened to you?"
"she must be in need of money like seriously"
"she tells only lies"
