Despite her looking so great but...
Sigh...the headline still about her divorce..

She looks amazing <3 Love the whole look.

It's been a long time since we have those "paparazzi" photos of her in Japan, right? That's unusual

TV-news with ayu arrival https://twitter.com/TAhimeTA/status/781401127279484928

Loving her look, so badass :luv2

Grunge Ayu!:heart
She looks so good. I think this look is one of my favorites in a while as far as Ayu's personal style.:yes
I wish I could afford Balmain.:weep

I love it! ♥ the only thing that it's a bit out of place it's that phone case. It's too cute for such a badass look! lol

I cant enough of her look and her outfit coz I always a big fan of this style!!

her hair reminds me of 2003 era (?) she had that style in her Panasonic CM <3

look at that well toned muscle!!!

Her outfit! :heart :heart :heart

Love her casual looks so much

I know this might sound odd but I feel like her chin has been looking like super different recently. Or her jaw line or something.

maybe it's the large sunglasses + the hat that's causing her face shape to appear different...

edit: hmm, maybe not her chin but her nose actually. I couldn't figure out what looked so off. I think her sunglasses makes her nose look tiny!

^ Who's that?

The tweet is about Aneki.

Rough translation:
She's quoting "untitled for her... story 2" there

I didn't know that was Aneki! I thought that was a recent pic of Ayu!

Who is Aneki?

Aneki is the subject of untitled ~for her~ and believed to be Ayumi Ogata. She passed away while Ayu was working on GUILTY and it resulted in a very emotional CDL that year as well.

So the girl in the image died and it is a tribute to her memory? Poor thing.:(

I'm loving her candid looks <3 Such good taste.

^I agree with that, really. 90% of the times. But I can't feel that look at all lol

The lower half is a little whaa? But probably more for her comfort, lol.

Her shoes look like wedge slippers O_O

^^ that's probably the first look I really like.

Plus, I can appreciate those Fendi shoes, you called out @melissalove:roflmao

She's preparing the next Vivi Deji Deji Diary ?

I love that hat with the safety pin ❤️

those fendi shoes are amazing. I've had my eye on a pair of sneakers for a while now. Need them

don't like any of these look, sorry xD

her real hair colour? It is more about the shadow..

Her shoe hair colour? She loves pink.

I don't think it's a shadows, it's like darker on the side of her face, light on others. There's a trend about this type of style, forgot what it is.

Aren't granny shoes like...a thing right now?

^ oh dear God, please say it isn't so.

It'd be like crocs all over again.

But this time...

with fur.

:weep

Another look I am loving.:luv2
It almost has a streetwear feel to it.

Those Balenciaga shoes though. DAMN. :luv2

She's really enjoying all the rich areas of Tokyo hahah first Ginza, now Aoyama.

I'm getting rather accustomed to her unique tomboyish, edgy sense of style. It suits her pretty well. I wonder what inspires her to dress that way, though, just out of curiosity.

She looks stunning here. I love the hat, the glasses, and the shoes!

Got lil PINK������ぐっちゃん @roi_salon いつもありがとう��

love this <3 looking cute!

PINK HAIR FTW!

I only have one thing to say about the pink hair: YES.

Oh no. What are you doing Ayu??
I really dislike this pic: the hair, the color and this mouth again.
Please, no.

Ah as I thought, there's darker color on the side of her face. I hope this messy hair color style for up coming magazine shoot or so. I didn't like it.

Idk but i'm not feeling this picture/look, she looks like a random model in her 20's.

I guess she just did Kylie Jenner Lip Challenge

I actually like it!!

I like her hair! It's a tortoiseshell coloring style to me. I wonder if she did the pink for breast cancer awareness month like we do here in the States?

Mixed feelings here. I like it but I don't love it.:P

A tiny bit of Party Queen hairstyle lol. I like it tho.

I wonder where that Superstars offshot was from. Maybe a special postcard or something?

Didn't knew it was a worldwide campaign! Here in Brazil is the same but I don't know about Japan... Would be amazing if that was the reason.

2016.10.16 Cute pregnant woman @makiakisada at the PEACHJOHN salon at Ginza
http://i.imgur.com/F8KNUDfl.jpg

This may sound weird but does Ayu know that girl or does she just go up to random pregnant ladies and do that? :laugh (I've no idea who that girl is.)

I think she's director at this salon

she always go there and one of their customer, she surely knows her

yeah, PEACHJOHN is the brand of her best friend Mika Noguchi. She must know the people who works there hahah

so cute <3

That's cute :) Btw, big hands, ayu! haha

改めて東京3daysありがとうございました❣️
最近コンタクトを変えたらみんな気付いてMC中に聞いて来る笑
さすがTAでーす����今回のツアーではね、キャレムドールのエレガンス(ブラック×ブラウン)をつけて るよん��✨その人の瞳の色にもよるのかもだけど、私はこれをつけるとグレイッシュな感じになるよん��� ���
では間髪入れずに名古屋へバトン繋ぐぜ待ってろ��✨✨✨

That's a heavy eye makeup. Wonder is it for TA concert.

^ yes, please! Haha

Can anyone translate?
http://news.biglobe.ne.jp/trend/1024...548537679.html

haha, I love the title. "Sad reality that Hamasaki Ayumi is yet to face: her staff says "we can't tell her that she's not popular".

ha ha she does seem to be aware of it though...

lol Never saw this before! Anyone knows where is this from?

If she runs her own career I'm sure she is pretty aware of its current state.

The source of that article is weird as heck.

http://tocana.jp/

Occult/UFOs/etc. normally.

^ That was a disturbing website...
But they had another article from last year saying that Ayu wanted 1mm shaved off of her chin, so she looks thinner in her PV and that it costed Avex 40 million yen to do that. Well, that was what I got out of Google Translate

Sick xD

And tomorrow in the news "Ayumi Hamasaki got fired by record label Avex Trax because of wanting another chin-operation"!:rolleyes

:luv2

Most will probably think it's too much or so with Ayu making such big eyes etc. but I somehow just L♡VE this pic!I mean it is a bit creepy but I still love it, haha!

I am constantly amazed at what some makeup and hair can do for this woman. Sometimes she looks like a completely different person, and then BAM out of nowhere it's like we're transported back in time.

Such a close up lol

Bangs are so 2007!

She deleted this photo and posted an announcement about the cancellation of Day3 and her throat situation. :(

I first wondered why she deleted it but sadly I now know why...

She looks like a doll. Hope she get better.

Pretty! I love this look for her.

If she wasnt popular, they wouldnt run the story, no ones dont sell papers or get views :P
I think shes no longer as popular, but I think shes more heading towards the Britney spears/Cher/Madonna/ dolly parton status. Shes no longer 'the' in thing, but she has a fan base to keep her going, and her name still carrys a lot of fame to it and power. Shes just an easy target for these type of stories :(

YES! LET HER BE A LEGEND AS CHER! Okay, sorry but I L♡VE Cher (have you seen the "I got you babe " parody with James Corden? Funny as heaven and damn her vocals *-*)! Beside that I would say she's more like Cher than e.g. Madonna! Cuz Ayu's more an entertainer -> Cher's too (though she used to dance fkng much and good as hell in the 70's). Madonna dances much more etc.. Also both Cher and Ayu had an elephant in their tours and are known for their over-the-top shows! Haha! But Ayu has more the "let's bash her image" like Madonna! But on the other side Ayu is much more Madonna when it comes to work much with touring etc. but again on the other side Cher's Farewell tour had 325 dates (but for american artists both have pretty much studio albums Cher 26 in 51 years and Madonna 13 in eh 30+ years like all two years though I know they didn't release them every two years or at least not Cher)... Well, for me she's more Cher with a Madonna-vibe (although I don't really like Madonna) sorry for going off-topic!
