Well, we're talking about Japanese standards here.

;) :D

Hitomi is beaut indeed. very. :yes

Seriously, Hitomi Shimatani would be wonderful if she was to advertise, or maybe even Olivia...but alas, their popularity probably isn't enough to get an endorsement.

And yes, Kuu's legs aren't her best attributes either...I mean, they're not deformed or anything, but I wouldn't pick her for a Venus model or anything...

well they are not deformed they have such...I dunno howto express
just if she stands they have a round shape....well many japanese tend to have such legs so I guess they are considered beaut...?

I guess they're trying to say even if you don't have nice skinny legs, you can still use their products...XD

Yeah I really think it's really pitiful when people bask into the misfortune of some artist. It's like these people can only gain pleasure from such misfortunes.

Wow that's a first... I think BoA has really beautiful facial features. Like everything is perfectly aligned and sized and she has a beautiful facial expression.

Same here! She even looks really cute on her "off days" and behind the scenes and stuff.

:]

wow...I don't like Kuu...but this is too much.....seriously I didn't find her comment offending at ALL.....i mean come on..big deal...sheesh....and surprisingly I actually enjoyed Kingdom....man.....I never thought I'd say this..but I feel bad for Kuu

Exactly, i mean..if she is "ugly" and I were a girl, man do I wish to look ugly like that.

BoA's really beautiful imo. I would love to have her features too XD!

BoA has a pleasant face
I don't consider her a beauty, but she has a pleasant beaut face with cute dimples and nice skin and besides she's very charming and cute by nature
that's what makes her attractive
but her face features are very good as well

BoA is pretty, but I think her look is very girl-next-door & sorta typical. there's just nothing really special about her.

especially when there are just really gorgeous j-pop singers around, people like Yu Yamada. I didn't list her earlier because she's not on Avex.

Well, she's definitely far from being ugly though.

Hmm, I don't really think BoA is extraordinarily pretty, she has very typical Korean features, and I've seen many girls around here that resemble her quite a bit. Kuu isn't someone I would call, "pretty" she seems to have more of that "hot" aura than pretty, although with the right makeup and facial expression she would be. Ayu is more of the pretty person to me as she has more distinctive features than the other two, and her face isn't that easy to replicate.

I think the should take Hikki, she has a absolutely perfect face and skin!

Even though I'm not much of a fan anymore - feel kinda sorry for Kumi. How did this thing get so big? Insane!

mi|kshake~

This has totally been

A) Blown out of proportion
B) Blown way out of proportion
C) Seriously blown way out of proportion

Koda just said what was on her mind, so yeah...

I do agree though, "SHE" was not the one who stopped promotion, (though I stopped reading after page 2 because I wanted to hypothesize and then be proven wrong later because I'm weird like that) I firmly believe Avex did and Koda said that to tell her fans in a modest way that she doesn't want to promote. It could be a combination...avex not wanting to promote and koda not wanting to do it anymore...or it could just be koda doesn't want to be asked about "Hey about what you said" on talk shows, so she'll let it simmer down for now.

Anyway, if anything, I'm pretty sure we'll theorize forever...sad thing really.

P.S. all the news stations talking about koda's statement is most likely gonna say "her company recently ceased promotion on her recent album" aka...free promotion.

Koda has been kicked out from Kirin and Honda too. And a new Venus Gilette commercial was stopped from filming.

But Ayu has less than 0% possibility to get Visee contract again and so it is for all the other Visee Models of the past (Namie Amuro, Beni Arashiro etc.) they need to find a new model soon...

And the model won't be BoA too because she was already Kose model for another product ^^ and she is beautiful *_*

And yeah Hitomi Shimatani would be a wonderful Visee model *_*

Is there some unwritten rule about being in CMs or something?

I'm sure Ayu could come back if Kose just asked :|

I messed up with my post, ....wahetevr.
Stupid commento the author made....very very sad.
