Ayu's whereabouts.. with Tomoya?
 

http://hochi.yomiuri.co.jp/entertain...OHT1T00003.htm

They went on a flight somewhere together..? O_O

Anyone willing to translate? The excite translator spit this out in like.. weirdness.. o-o

From what I understand it says that they were seen together at Narita Airport, arriving back from their private time together in Los Angeles.

I wish they showed pics of them in LA...but thanks for the news anyways!

Thanks for the info. It's nice to know they are still together.

I agree, it's good to hear news about them still together. It's been a very long time too.

All this Tomoya and Ayu stuff is getting boring... I'd like some OTHER information rofl.

I think this Ayu and Tomoya stuff is what's delaying the 'ACTUAL' news stuff.. LOL

I was starting to get worried that Ayu was kidnapped.
t4p

Ahhhh, I see. I think we have the reason for the delay, everyone (at least it seems to be something that was making her very happy instead of something like the eye injury.... unless that really was the cause for the delay).

How long have they been together, anyway?

I think that any rumor that comes out about the two of them breaking up is bound to be false..

Unless Ayu like, confirms a rumor on her official TeamAyu blog.
:D
I wonder why Ayu doesn't do daily blogs.. :<

Supposedly, she's known Tomoya since 1993!.
Gossipy article from 10 days ago stated..
I kinda wanna kick whoever made up that 'TIM' rumor >>

HURRAY!!!
i want them to get married A.S.A.P haha
i want to see ayu have a child..and her child will be a star in the future

Yay for mini Ayus all over the place ;).

Yeah, I'd also like to see her have children, although that'd probably mean a long halt in her career... :/

I really don't want her to have kids..

If she keeps singing, then it'll be okay, but it'll probably be reduced to a one single / one album a year thing.. :/

Come on, she was raised by a mom who worked for AGES.. I think she'd want to give her child something more than that..

Yeah, I guess..

But during that time, it was like "AYU!!" every month. o_o That definitely was not a normal pace for a human being to be releasing things at. Seriously, there was something new like, every month of the year in 2001.

She'll probably marry Tomoya, but wait till later to have a kid :)

yay! thanks for the news

ohhh~ well it is Ayu's B'day today!!!!!!!!!

is this for real??O_o?? i mean did she just come back just today on her birthday??...where did u see this??in a magazine or something??

:o Is it really gossip?

I mean, it really did happen.. or not T__T

THANK YOU FOR POSTING THIS NEWS TRUEHAPPINESS

Yay, I"m happy to see that she gets to have private time, away from her hectic schedule.

If it's in the yomiuri there's a very high probability it's legit. I don't consider it gossip.

I had it labeled as news, and someone changed it to gossip.. so.. :/

Thanks for relabeling it if you did :)

Damn, why do I always miss when Ayu is in town? :)

Doesn't anyone see that the delay of information is because of that eye thing she has? My friend has the exact same thing and it's been with her for a while now.

Yeah, that's true. I had the same thing once, and it was very unconfortable x_X

Thanks for posting X3

This Meh~ Japanese magazine did~

Some people are speculating that she went to the U.S for 3 weeks with Tomoya or something.. and that might be the reason for the lack of news / lack of appearances at Heyx3 and Music Station.. :o

Not likely since Tomoya was on Music Station recently. :)

Perhaps Tomoya met up with Ayu afterwards? :/
It's all just speculation so.. :p

edit: GOD I LOVE A-NATION OMGGGG AT06 SNIPPET.
IT LOOKS. AMAZING.

This is what i got from the entertainment news from japan site.

Hamasaki Ayumi (28) and Nagase Tomoya (27) were hand in hand at Narita Airport yesterday on their return from Los Angeles. Pop diva Ayu spent three weeks in the U.S. in the recording studio and doing interviews, while Nagase joined her after finishing a tour with Johnny's group Tokio on September 15. It's been five years since they first revealed their relationship, and they've refused to speak publicly about it since.

This site is the best cause its updated daily monday-friday! Anyway here is the site:-http://www.japan-zone.com/news/

Recording studio, eh?

I smell an album either by the end of the year or early next year. Or perhaps finishing touches on the next single.

Yes, it's freakin' amazing, I got all shivery when I saw the clip from the alterna ball O_O;

You should start scouting the streets already, she could return within the next 5 years!

@Ayumi^_^ - thanks for the translation.

They went to LA???
Maybe went she has a child her single is called [BABY]

yeah thats what i am thinking too.I think shes finishing up the next single

Ayu was in LA. I wish I lived there. Better yet Japan, but since it costs so much to live in Japan, I have a better chance of living in LA. LOL

they seem to love L.A. a lot.. why?? but i think they really want a time out or something.. especially before the summer ends entirely... poor things.. u think they have enough rest?... i dun..

Because it is a really huge and awesomely well known city, especially for it's many different entertainment venues? :)

Ayu should come to Philly. You know back when America was first getting started, as colonies, Pennsylvania used to be the most popular and populated colony (not state, colony) and Philadelphia used to be the most popular and populated city.

Just wanted to say arigatou for the news - glad to see Ayu have someone special to be with during her breaks and just wanted to wish Ayu belated 'Happy Birthday!" for the 2nd Oct - wow 29!!

me, too

Well, I think the single's already done, with PV / jacket shooting needed now :p

I just know the album will be all 'OMG DEC 1X'! :D :D

I hope they are both happy.

private time in LA, eh? :lech

More info!
 

The pictures of Ayu and Tomoya in Los Angeles were considered shocked because they appeared >>shock<< HOLDING HANDS! No, I'm not even kidding, the morning gossip news show hosts were all talking about how they are not even ashamed to hold hands in public (uncommon among japanese, mostly the famous ones) and how that's a shocking behaviour and they're acting like a "gaijin couple".

Here are some screencaps from the morning TV show:

(OMG! They're holding hand)

And according to the japanese media, the reason Ayu is in LA for the last few weeks was to finish her next CD (photoshoots and songs) and that's the reason why she hasn't been seen much lately. So yes, I guess we can expect an album.

I'm guessing that she's not going to reveal that she's 'done' with the album..

But release a single.


Think of how B&D / (m)u / Startin' were done simultaneously.. :p

DANG IT SHE'S IN THE US AGAIN SOMEONE KILL SOMETHING ><

I was thinking a bit about that when I saw it, because I've heard it's not very common... haha, awesome it was like... brought up on the news, must be little else going on in Japan currently :D.

Thanks for the links and the update.

I'd guess that Ayu wants to do her albums as far away from 'competition' as possible.. :/

LOL. Japanese morning news shows are actually about this kind of gossip.

Yeah, well, morning news often are it seems... it's sort of the same here in Sweden, they just bring up ALL kinds of crap... umm, I like never watch it but I know anyway :P.

I think it's cause not much happens in Japan LOL

Maybe weather things, but that's about it..

In America, it's crime reporting like everywhere LOL


I wonder if they're close at ALL to getting married..

^ I believe the morning show said she said to the press she didn't plan to marry him anytime soon.

I wonder what the theme of the album will be if it's shot in LA...

:thud

:meditate Please no Startin'/B&D/Pride. ;_;

I think that those were GEO-ish influenced..

And I blame Takahide Ishii for the reputations of the songs lately..

[sometimes the PV makes the song.. .and uh.. :< :<]
