Ayu, first artist to connect four popular women's magazines

[tokyoxjapanxfan]

I just realized this probably belongs in the "Celebrity News" section. So if a mod could move it, that'd be great.

According to Model Press, Ayu is the first artist to connect four different magazines.

The jacket image for the four participating magazines including ViVi, Scawaii!, bea's UP, and JELLY, will be printed on 100 t-shirts per magazine and given away to commemorate the release of LOVE again.

I guess it's the first time for four different magazines to be doing the same present campaign at the same time. I believe the article also states that "natural" Ayu will be the theme for all the magazines?

ViVi: 1/23
Scawaii!: 2/7
bea's UP: 2/12
JELLY: 2/17

浜崎あゆみ、女性誌4誌と連動で史上初の試み

アーティストの浜崎あゆみが、自身が表紙を飾る女性誌4誌連動企画の実施を23日、発表した。

同企画では、2月8日に発売されるアルバム「LOVE again」のリリースを記念し、各雑誌の表紙写真がプリントされた限定100枚のTシャツをそれぞれ抽選 で100名にプレゼントするという。

数多くの女性ファンを持つ浜崎ならではということで、各雑誌が賛同し実現。出版社も異なる女性誌同士が連動 して同一のプレゼント企画を行うことは史上初の試みとなる。

参加雑誌は、「ViVi 3月号」(1月23日発売／講談社)、「Scawaii！ 3月号」(2月7日発売／主婦の友社)、「bea’s UP 3月号」(2月12日発売／スタンダードマガジン)、「JELLY 4月号」(2月17日発売／ぶんか社)の4誌。各雑誌とも今回のアルバムの世界観を踏襲し、ナチュラルで美 しい浜崎が表紙を飾る。（モデルプレス）

[BlackSilence]

"natural" ayu" = i'm gonna love all of the magz ♥ CANNOT WAIT!

[kiseki89]

so how can we get the tshirts? It's only for the 400 lucky people who buy the magazine in japan?

[Minttulatte]

Nice one!

[Delicious n Bold]

Ayuma, her POWER.

[inspire_rmx]

Awesome promotion!! can't wait for the covers. really hope this will boost her sales for the new album -finger crossed-

[Linza-mo]

Very interresting thanks for the news ! =)

[AyuWorld]

great but can we get that tshirt too?

[FoObY]

Yay promotion!

[tokyoxjapanxfan]

It looked like you have to send in a post card with your name and address. But I'm not sure if it requires proof of purchase or residence in Japan. I can recheck ViVi later unless someone can before me. :-p

[AyUmIXx]

are we gonna see new pics for all those 4 magazines??
natural Ayu..bring it onnnnnnnn!!!

[Not~Yet]

Nice that they're actually doing some promo this time!

[happiholic★]

Wow, JELLY is really stepping their game up. They used to be such a simple gyaru magazine with no celebrity appearances.

[freedreamer]

looking forward to NATURAL AYU all over!
