This picture is almost too adorable to function. I'm melting

[xLuna&1LOVE]

I think she looks really adorable. I indeed start to wonder if the outfit was the best choice for a TV appearance, but the hate is soo far-fetched. This pic proves that she looks gorgeous! (Yeah yeah... different angles, but whatever.)

Ayu's featured on news, what are they saying? Bout her net worth?

[YUKARI]

^ it says what she spends 8200 yen for 8 pieces of sushi at home while having room service. she spent more than 1 mln yen for some hours of it. then they ask who pays for it. they say - she pays by herself. they say she still pays lots of taxes and get her profit from lives and sales of goods. in the end, they say "of course, she doesn't have any lack of money".

Thank you! I wonder where they got such information like how much ayu spent on her sushi treat lol.

Love the last one what they said she doesnt have any lack of money haha

[pedronekoi]

Interesting! Thanks, YUKARI!

So maybe the media/avex is trying to show that ayumi is rich and have her luxury but whitouth being a diva? I get that feel from the last TV show.

[AyuWorld]

Yep I have a feeling this is their trick to promote Ayu or to let the public know that Ayumi Hamasaki os still here ans shes still stable on the industry lol

Like suddenly they kinda show that they are impressed with her not a lot maybe a little in the news, why lol

The last i remember was they comparing Ayu and Namie (not really in a positive way for Ayu) so yeah

[melissalove]

Wow if showing off her wealth is the only way avex can get ayu some attention these days. That in itself is kinda sad :/

[attractive nausea]

^ My thoughts exactly

[Andrenekoi]

^Well, gossip sites were trying to imply she was going bankrupt by saying she had to sell her stuff because she was out of money. If she is not making money this mean she is over, and if she is over it's uncool to like her.

It's less about showing how much she pays for sushi and more about showing her career still going strong and making her money.

[truehappiness]

It's all about how you choose to interpret things, really.

[EndOfTheWorld]

I honestly really don't care how much money and clothes Ayu has. It's typical for celebrities to be wealthy and own a lot of luxury things.
Sometimes I get tired of the media with Ayu. She is so interesting and has released so much music throughout the years. But instead, the focus is on expensive houses, net worth, hand bags and phone cases, and clothing.

[URANUS]

I feel like it is an elaborate effort of Avex to create and clean Ayu's new image as the "Queen". They have been focusing on her wealth, power. I actually think this is pretty empowering for Ayu. It shows her strength in the industry. In the previous show, they also mentioned that she's sold over 50 million records. I feel that they should focus on that more in the coming months before they finally release A BEST 3.

[Andrenekoi]

^Even because a "down to earth girl next door" image at this point of the game that everyone knows she is filthy rich and powerful in the industry wouldn't work at all

So true. That is really obvious.

[Katsuyuki012]

Everyone really seems to want A BEST 3, huh?

[xLuna&1LOVE]

I don't get the whole woooo about A BEST 3. Sounds so least exciting.

[truehappiness]

People don't want it, I think, but it's bound to come at some point. Worst would be A BEST -FINAL-.

[EndOfTheWorld]

Because Ayu has not released many singles since A Best 2. Most of the content would be 2008-2010. We only had Zutto and the limited Colours singles since then. One or two digital singles. I think A Best 3 would maybe be an awkward greatest hits collection. Totally possible but it would be heavy on 2000s songs. May as well just buy the individual albums at that point.
I think something like A Best COMPLETE is more likely. But it's just a prediction at this time. I could be wrong.
Above all, I want A Ballads 2.
Please.

[Katsuyuki012]

I wouldn't really want another A BEST but I guess with all the physical + digital singles released since A BEST 2 it would be enough.
