This is the way I express my respects. Not only TRF, Miss KEIKO, and Miss Namie Amuro too… it’s impossible not to respect them. Their histories will be continued, and I can’t achieve their success within my life. And it is not a thing that you can eventually exceed, because that’s my idea.

After all, celebrities are just people (Surprise!) and they get along with each other or don't get along with each other, just like anyone else. But I think that interview says quite much about the ayu-Namie-hating-topic... I don't think they hate each other.
And about BoA: While a clip about ayus "A BEST II" release was shown on MS, showing a part of the PV for "Dearest", BoA (I think it was her...) was singing along with it. That was so cute! ^^
