Beyonce talks about AYU(&Koda...)

[Peger]

I always knew Beyonce had fierce taste

[emi♡]

it's not that surprising, I mean I guess it is in the fact that Japanese artists aren't well-known, but a lot of my friends who hear "my" music love it.

One of my friends is positive that Kuu would sell tons of albums here because of her "style", if you get what I mean.

[ImpactBreaker]

It sounds so insincere I doubt she has the urge to listen to any of them....

[Megshere]

Ya know, if she was asked "Who are your favorite Japanese singers?", she probably just named off the more popular people because I am sure when she was in Japan she at least saw or heard of them once. It's not like she is saying that her favorite females singers and Ayu and Koda...

[Bashumaru]

Lol, Seriously? I'm surprised about it >_>.

[Ayumi_Hamasaki902]

Thanks for the info, really awesome that she likes Ayu and Koda ^^

[Libriya]

Pretty unexpected, but I doubt that she really listen to them.

[lfe.]

should make this interview go more public, like in a mag or something. that way ayu and kuu get more U.S. recognition and more promotions for worldwide fame!

[KuroixShiroi_Namida]

Lol. beyonce's cool XD!

[perfectdeath]

i think she just said that to create some hype for her fans in asia

[AyumiBest]

I don't care if she's lying or not its just cool that she knows them...XD If she does listen to their music I'd be like "o.o wow..."

Yeah and people would most likely listen to her and wherever people will listen...

[Cyria]

It's cool she knows about Ayu. I'm not surprised she prefers Kuu though.

[Zemus]

Well, they used Beyoncé for months in the opening of HEY!HEY!HEY! so I guess she has to have at least some kind of knowledge about Japanese music. Really cool she mentioned Ayu .

[Halla]

I'm pretty sure, if this interview was conducted in japan, that they played some songs to her by Ayu, Kuu + etc and asked whats she thought of them and which she liked best ...

[majrakun]

LOL niiice, who knows, maybe she'll make a cover song by Ayu or Kuu one day! XD

[freedreamer]

WOAHHH thats really cool

[dayumi]

That was unexpected from Beyonce.
I'm surprised that she likes Ayu, not really surprise tho about Koda..

[freedreamer]

she should like Namie too haha...simialr styles

[Lanz16]

WAW!

Beyonce likes Ayu-chan and Kuu?
That was awesome!!!

Thanks for sharing the news! :-)

yeah, for some reason I don't think its true at all. sorry to the others but, since Ayu and Kuu are two of the most popular singers in Japan..it just sounds they threw the names at her to say, for the sake of an interview=____=. I may be very wrong, but seriously..I don't imagine Beyonce liking Ayu's music at all maybe Kuu's cause of the Urban RnB kind of style but Ayu is another world to them O____O in terms of music. Even Namie cause of the style(iunno) or Hikki cause of the english speakingness XD but ayu? sounds so fake....even if ayu's music is the BEST! yeah I am so biased

I can't imagine her going, oh I went to Japan I must listen to some Japanese music now =D! its more like her manager goes "LISTEN TO THIS D=<" and I doubt she'd enjoy listening to something if she was made to do it

then again I may be VERY VERY wrong...
