[GOSSIP] ayu+bf secret dubai vacation?

[ayu_fan929]

for those who can read chinese:

濱崎步與男友密遊杜拜
【太陽報專訊】去年11月濱崎步火速搭上老外男友Tim，先被目睹在紐約拍拖，其後又傳她收下男友的三十萬 元訂婚戒指，感情突飛猛進，但不久又傳出步姐飛起男友，令戀情撲朔迷離。直到最近有人目廣告睹她和Tim秘 密到杜拜旅行，Tim更搬到日本居住，實行轉玩地下情。
上月中，步姐與阿Tim在關西國際機場等候入閘，由於時值深夜，旅客不算多，所以未有人察覺兩人。當晚步姐 穿得很鮮艷，心情非常靚，準備飛往杜拜旅行。兩人入住著名的七星級帆船酒店，該酒店房租一晚最高消費9萬。 兩人玩了四日便回國，但抵達日本時卻不見男友蹤影。而她的事務所亦承認今次步姐是與幾位工作上的朋友到杜拜 旅行。

I'll give a basic translation.
The 1st paragraph talks about her foreign boyfriend "Tim" where they met last November in NYC. After their meeting, it was rumoured that she accepted a HK$300,000 (or US$38,000) wedding ring from Tim. But not long after the relationship started, ayu dumped Tim. But now, it seems that Tim and ayu are back together as she and Tim were spotted going to Dubai on a secret vacation. And they say that Tim has found a place to live in Japan and it's now an "underground" relationship.
Second paragraph says that the 2 were spotted mid-last month at Kansai Airport. Since it was a late night flight, not many people noticed them. That night ayu was very excited and was dressed up (<-not 100% sure about this part), as they were going on a vacation to Dubai. In Dubai, the 2 went to a 7-star hotel (it's called the Burj Al-Arab or something like that) where each room per night costs up to HK$90,000 (or about US$11,000). The two stayed there for 4 days before returning back to Japan. But, when the plane landed in Japan, they could not find the boyfriend. On the other hand, avex says that ayu went to Dubai with some co-worker friends for a vacation.

Any thoughts?

edit: Here's a wiki entry on the Burj al-Arab: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burj_al_arab

It's really one of a kind (the hotel).

I wish it were true! I hate how Japan has no "confirmed" stories in their entertainment gossip. When they do, it's boring stuff like marriage and blah blah... things that can be confirmed anywhere. Where are all the shocking scandalous photos and reports??

If Ayu were a celeb in America, her face would be on every tabloid magazine and there would be TONS of pics of her.

Do paparazzi even exist in Japan? If they do, they really suck at taking pictures! I don't care how rude it is haha, I need my celeb gossip. That's what being famous is all about anyways.

I understand a lot of people enjoy the shallowness of those reports but there's no need to wish to find out about Ayu's personal life. You see, due to her deeply honest and personal way of writing you will find out a lot more about Ayu than from reading a tabloid paper or magazine.
Songs like 'appears' (and many more) say what happens to Ayu and her relationships in her own words. No one can trust any other words more than her own.

Anyone have a picture of Tim? Who is he?

Actually, Appears is one of the few songs that she admitted she did not write about her own personal experiences. However, I agree with the rest of your post.

^Argh! It's tabloid from Hong Kong again. Why do you bother to believe it?

Anyway, i think Japan paparazz is really weak. I guess that why Hong Kong bother to make sume really hideous news! Hahaha... It'd be good if Avex can "comfirmed" the news because it'd be a really hard slap on Hong Kong! HAHAHA!!! XD

I never said I believed that the 2 went to Dubai. And they did kinda confirm it. It said:

On the other hand, avex says that ayu went to Dubai with some co-worker friends for a vacation.

avex has confirmed she went to Dubai. So, I don't know why people are still in denial that she can't go to Dubai...

My thought exactly. It's not like HK Papers are going to go to Japan just to hunt fown a Japanese-celebrity (they might do it for a HK one but I really doubt for a Japanese one.) What they would do is just translate the stuff they read on BBS or like gossip magazines into Chinese.

so Ayu did go to Dubai??

[AyuGAME]

no no it can't be true!

[lizziemeister]

i dont believe it...

[mui-gei-tal]

what happened to tomoyaaaa T_T

I don't know how this can be true (or how anyone could believe it) considering Ayumi was gearing up for her tour...

Also, the Japanese gossips are actually quite prevalent but most members here don't read Japanese papers, so that sort of cuts down on getting news from those sources. Usually, HK papers get their news from Japanese sources. As ayu_fan929 said, "Friday" is one of the more popular gossip rags but there are TONS more. Also, much gossip is generated from BBS in Japan.

Exactly what I was thinking. Seems impossible for her to go on vacation since she's got her touring going on.

lol, some things seem just too.. unreal o_o

[Qt Mashi]

lol, omg i thought this whole "Tim" thing was over...well i thought wrong xD

and when i saw this thread title i thought it was going to be something about Tomoya and Ayu, made me get excited

[Aisha_Angel]

LOL...my brother's gonna flip when he hears this. "in his mind" he believes he & Ayu are married and that my cat VERBAL is their child. lol, but he only does it just to keep me laughing. You should hear his story about what happened when Ayu went into labor...

[SunshineSlayer]

Wow, really weird that this "Tim" thing has shown up again. Usually once a rumor like this dies, it stays dead. Odd that it has come back...

Not saying that this is true - how can anyone really know. But her tour dates are only on the weekend and it says they stayed for only 4 days.

[truehappiness]

...LOL.

[RubbishMui]

it seems possible....but only marginally...
yahoo should be credible .. right?
