yes, she does. I personally feel that it has taken a toll on her voice (in addition to the way she used to sing, I'm surprised she's still even able to sing at all)

I agree, it has taken its toll on her voice. Look at how much she sings, that has to add to it, especially with all the tours she does every year.

there are several reasons that Ayu isn't as good singing live as she does with her studio performances, one being the fact that they edit a lot of the song before putting it on an album/single.

Ayu's more of a casual smoker, meaning she probably smokes like, once or twoce just for the hell of it. I wouldnt consider her a SMOKER

yeah, in the studio it's important to realize they synthesize her voice and edit it to hell. I like lives though. I think she sounds good when you hear her real voice; it's really refreshing to hear someone not lip-synching (although I won't deny that she might sometimes)

Back on topic, yes she does. I think it's a cultural thing over in Japan too, to smoke.

I do'nt see why it's so important. Smoking seems to be big in Japan, as well as here in the US. If Ayu does smoke, she probably doesn't do it all the time since she's always so busy appearing here and there.

Thank you for the lovely yr old thread bump.

I have seen one picture with Ayu holding what looks like a cigarette. The quality of the picture is not good enough to say 100%, but I think it is a cigarette. On the other hand, I have several of globe's concert DVDs. In almost all of the off-shots KEIKO either has a cigarette in her mouth or has a pack of cigarettes nearby. I think if Ayu smokes it is very rarely or else she must have a tremendous amount of self-control to avoid being seen smoking in front of other people.

Look at the gums. If the gums are dark, then that person smokes. And from what I can tell...I think she smokes, but only on her "leisure" time since it's rude for an artist to smoke in public.
