I honestly hope this isn't true. I would dread the idea of Ayu trying to break the western market. I'd probably even cry ;_;. The music world in the states, regardless of quality, is so heartless and cold. Sure she may have a fan base here, but the average person may not receive her very well. And this may sound silly, but I don't image that I'd take insults against her very well from the common crowd who don't even know her outside of "some random Asian woman." I'm so comfortable with the "I love Ayu!" "Who?" situation in my life now hahaha.

Not to mention, she's half deaf! Her vocals are NOT top notch live majority of the time. People would tear her apart *dies.* She might do pretty well in Europe. But please Ayu, PLEASE don't come to America >_<;

Sorry if I don't make any sense! Or my feelings are based on generalizations or whatever but the thought of this sends me into irrational thinking and fear LOL.
