In a way I'm thinking, "Good for her for thinking this isn't just 'some' concert." On the other hand... what a diva, as you all said before.

But I sort of don't blame her.

By the way, I think I already know the answer to this, but is Ayu planning on speaking in Japanese during her MC sessions when she's in other countries?

It's nothing that uncommon, I would like every place I stay in to be insect-free as well.

And the other requests aren't asking too much either as I'm sure avex is paying the hotel top dollar.

AYUMI IS SUCH A BIG FLYING POOFTER!

Well personally I wouldn't like bugs in a hotel room either.

Ok, she doesn't want bugs in her suite, normal, after all, who would want.. But why she thinks that she needs to ask for that ! Taiwan is not Third World, this is a real disrespect for Taiwanese people. She can also ask for hot water and a clean bed sheet..

minna · #26 20th March 2007, 10:44 PM

me too. if there was a bug in my room I wouldn't want to sleep with it...
but i understand. she wants the best for her concerts! and her menu, if she wants that it's that it must be good for her no?
I think that her request are ok!

Ayumiko · #27 20th March 2007, 11:17 PM

I dont think she is trying to disrespect taiwanese people....I wouldnt be surprised if she request that whereever she stays at overseas.

I remember hearing a US diva who would demand her hotel room's walls white whereever she goes and if they're not, she would tell them to paint it white. I forgot who it was... so not wanting bugs is a little request compared to that.

Peger · #28 20th March 2007, 11:24 PM

I just love her more when i hear all the diva stories lol

How come Ayu's team is so big?

Aisha_Angel · #31 20th March 2007, 11:53 PM

Gosh, they make it seem like she's the cookie monster or something. All she requested is what a lot of us don't want in our rooms: BUGS...a couple of machines that I use to go to sleep: a HUMIDIFIER...and her favorite health foods. Good gracious, they'd better be glad I'm not the star...I'd be labelled as trying to eat Taiwan out of house and home compared to Ayu.

The personal belongings are probably her animals, their care-stuff, her clothings/costumes, accessories/makeup and back up supplies. At least this type of beefed up security means NO LOST LUGGAGE...::hint-hint to the members of what used to be Destiny's Child...get some security&back up costumes and you won't lose ALL your stuff::

Overall, her demands are nowhere near the insanity of Christina Aguilera and Mariah Carey.

minna · #32 20th March 2007, 11:58 PM

i don't think she's a diva! she wants to be at her best for her perfomances so I think it's normal that she's asking to eat whatever she wants!

& bugs...i understand her completly! if there was one in my room I wouldn't want to sleep until somebody killed it

ayumeg · #33 21st March 2007, 12:53 AM

If I had as much money/power as her, I'd ask for MORE. Haha.

truehappiness · #34 21st March 2007, 12:54 AM

It's probably a humidifier she wants, not a moisturizer-machine. LOL

Tell one of her many dogs to take a chomp at it!!!!

Just kidding, I don't think she would like that idea either.

Ani_C · #36 21st March 2007, 01:04 AM

HAHAHA! What a nag xDDDD I mean I agree with the whole bug thing but jeez xD I could so see Ayu making all these demands all pissed off or worried.

Thanks for sharing.

Kikaru · #37 21st March 2007, 01:06 AM

Interestingly enough, I saw something on the news the other night that even a lot of high-star hotels have a lot of unseen rodents and bugs, and it really made me want to stop traveling.

Personally, I'm terrified of bugs, so I get her completely.

I'm pretty sure this includes the hundreds of people who are coming over from Japan just to assemble the set. In other words, most of those 500 are stagehands and construction workers.

Just to clear things up, the demands made on the hotel are NOT a complete tour rider (which is what I assume people are referring to when they mention demands from other divas). A contract rider consists of requirements/demands for everything from stage design to accomodations to transportation and dressing rooms. If this is what her hotel list looks like, imagine what she wants for her concert backstage room.

This is just the tip of the iceberg. At a glance, there is little wonder why her Asian tour isn't more extensive. I'm sure there were countries that got scared off by just part of the rider.

truehappiness · #39 21st March 2007, 01:14 AM

That'd mean that perhaps, some countries might not've been able to provide for her needs and were eliminated from a list of "possible" cities to go..

lol "preparing a war"
