The correct way is correct so that people don't run out of breath or ruin their voices over time.

Thank you for saving me time
Just to add on wiggling your jaw can cause the muscles to tense which is terrible for singing aside from as Delirium already pointed out is just durn inefficient. Some of you have said, "Oh I've seen so and so sing like this and they're professionals!" Ayumi is a professional singer, hell, people like Britney Spears are professional. Generally people apply the tag "professional" to a singer as is defined by, "people buy their singing." Once you have it made you're considered professional but that doesn't mean you're perfect and I've seen plenty who shun generally standard techniques because either a) they simply don't know how to properly use them or b) for the sake of preserving their own particular sound for a piece or c) that's how they want to sound.
Considering she had voice lessons in NY, pretty much -the- place to get singing lessons if any outside of LA if you're looking for world-reknowned trainers, she was undoubtedly shown how to do it, but I believe she has trouble with execution. Her performance of "Haru Yo Koi" at the Music Fair is one of my favorite performances of her aside from just being beautiful, for the most part she used normal vibrato so that her usual, "ahAHahAHah" didn't detract from her singing. Of course most other songs she uses the fake vibrato *cringe*
