Are you serious? Kumi has been through a lot to get to the top. So what if her image has been more "sexualized" than Ayumi. In recent years, Ayu has become more sexualized too (well never to the extent of Kumi). I love Ku for that reason - I love her for her sexy image. She has songs that Ayu could never pull off and vice versa. (BE MY BABY and Driving = EPIC EPIC EPIC) (talkin' 2 myself / STEP you / JEWEL, etc... = amazement)
I will say yes sometimes her ballads are a tad boring but Ayu's stuff recently is just about the same (stay with me = You were... = Moon Crying = beloved = ai wo tomenaide). Let the girls be who they are. Both have successful careers, work nonstop, and really care for their fans. Thank God neither of them can be comparable to the current way Britney Spears's career is run.
