[Youtube] Ayu + Lady Gaga talk ...

[minkAYuko]

I agree chibi-chan, tho I'm excited 'cause it's always fun when ayu (and japanese artists in general) meet artists from this side of the world. Like when Hitomi shimatani met Juanes (wikiprofile) and I sure don't care for juanes at all, but it was fun.


Now for me, the whole gaga-ayu thing is so over. They met, they talked and that's it!! out of my system.

[jean-baptiste]

^^i actually agree with every single thing you said.

but i think it's understandable that people are excited. because Lady GaGa is a lot of people's favorite artist and so is ayu. like when ayu and koda kumi have talked a couple times on Music Station i flipped. LOL so i understand. xD

but a collab...that's where i get lost. xD

[Kanzaki]

It's funny to see people actually being upset about the two meeting. Like...what's the big issue?

God that lobster that eats Gaga's face is hideous. It's original, but disturbing. Ayu's always managed to at least stay classy when she's had her "wtf am I really wearing?"-moments.

Loved both performances <3

[asmAyumi1992]

Haha. yes, we're being really Gaga-hype. But it's not really disturbing imo. For me, I just get excited as I love Gaga as a performer and so do Ayu, talking to each other. You know, when the two thing you really like that have a very small percent to meet was met! That's just what I feel and think.

Sorry if you couldn't understand this

[Kazeyomi]

Lol Ayu's really cute when she nod to Gaga
A music collaboration couldn't matches between them maybe, but a photoshoot with Ayu&Gaga would be more interesting in my opinion.

Thanks for sharing btw!

[Misa-chan]

Rough transcript. I don't know how to do subs, but if someone is willing to try, feel free to use these.

There's still the 2nd part left to do, when Perfume asks about fashion and they show Gaga and ayu's photos. Will do that later. ^^

OPENING ENTRANCE:
Tamori: Hamasaki Ayumi-chan, best regards.
Ayu: Best regards.
Female Host: Hamasaki-san, who is on her nationwide tour now, will be singing a song from her new hit album tonight.
.
.
.
T: And we have Lady Gaga-san, best regards.
FH: Lady Gaga is 24 years old, from New York. Her debut album took the world by storm with more than 1 million copies sold. She has won awards during the Grammys, and collected many other international awards.
T: Wow.
FH: What is your image?
LG: ...
FH: Japanese designers.
T: Yes, designers.
FH: And tonight, she will be performing her new song, which topped the english music charts, for Music Station.
LG: ...
FH: Thank you.

TALK:
FH: Now, we have the Questions Corner. And we have this question from Kibasaki Kou-san to her fellow guests. When I go to sleep, I can't decide what to wear. So what does everyone wear to sleep?
T: What do you wear to sleep?
KK: Me? Erm, I wear lots of black and simple clothes normally, so when I go to sleep, I wear something really different. Like fluttery ones, with lots of ribbons, I wear those. And pumpkin pants too.
T: Pumpkin pants! Eh, so who do you want to ask?
KK: Definitely Lady Gaga-san.
T: Lady Gaga-san, what kind of...
LG: Nothing.
T: Nothing?
LG: I have to work all day and I get tired. Time to be free. Time to be free.
T: It's usual then. So what does Hamasaki Ayumi-chan wear to sleep?
A: For me... Erm, what's it? Oh yeah, because I often wear restrictive clothes when performing...
T: Like a cute kid's?
A: Fluttery
T: With lots of frills
A: What's with you?
FH: Tamori-san looks really happy.
A: Tamori-san seems to know this very well...
T: I'm sorry. I let my imagination run away.

she's singing monochrome ^^

I am gonna try to post a translation in a bit...

hmmm so Lady Gaga really isnt original she did say she wanted to do something like what Ayu did with the big dress. I wonder if she's been looking up Ayu videos for inspiration

[CZECHayu]

oh thank you already the Microphone performance

[channy]

I am shocked how someone can find Gaga sexy. She's rude (wearing "clothes" that make other people feel uncomfortable sitting next to her), disrespectful (wearing dark sunglasses during a TV SHOW!!) and ignorant (barely interacting with people). She sat there as if she wasn't present. The only thing she can do is, trying to act odd. Ayu sat there, very polite, friendly, laughing and with no disguise!

Though I really do wish, that when Gaga was sorting of 'showing off' saying she designed the dress to bleed, Ayu would've said "Yeah, I did that too - 10 years ago". If she had said it...Oh if she had said it I'd have been thrilled! I know I certainly would've if I were Ayu but then Ayu is a bit more of a polite young lady lol

I don't think she was showing off. It's obvious she did't know ayu did that ten years ago, she's just probably thinking it was an amazing idea and if ayu did say she did that ten years ago, she would have been even more amazed and thought ayu was cool XD

[asmAyumi1992]

@Shiseido, Don't you think Tamori also wearing dark sunglasses in his own show?

Thanks Misa for the translation! Haha. I can imagine Ayu wearing the fluttery clothes

I knew this would come! xD

Don't forget that Tamori has been doing Music Station for over 20 years now. I think in his case, its something totally different. Also, he's not a guest but the host! That is quite a difference

I agree especuakky about the clothes that make people feel uncomfortable, it's totally obvious you look that perfume's faces during the talk. Plus half the time it kind of look like she was staring off into space lol.

[ayupan90]

j-rockers wear sunglasses on talk shows all the time, look at Gackt. She did seem kinda rude though, but it is very awkward to sit in a room filled with people speaking a foreign language (but she did have an interpreter so that's not much of an accuse)

I've just argued against myself XD

that is signature gackt. i love it when he does that hehe. he can be funny at times though ^___^.



oh question: does the interpreter translate everything everyone says?

Well,

Rude: She probably didn't know that she'll have to squeeze with 4 other people on the same bench. This is something which I've only seen in Music Station, where big artists actually have to sit side by side in this manner. Besides, that's what Lady Gaga's image is all about, bizarre costumes that nobody else would wear.

Disrespectful: Same thing, it's the entire image that goes with her costume. If it really was rude, I'm sure her coordinators and interpretors would have let her know about it. And since she's wearing it, it's probably because noone present thought that it might be potentially disrespectful/rude/whatever.

Ignorant: Imagine being in the midst of a group of foreigners, all obviously familiar and on good laughing terms with each other, and all speaking a different language. You don't know what they're saying, or laughing about, and you can't even participate in the conversation even if you wanted to. They may be laughing at you and your clothes for all you knew. Now, won't you feel just a little awkward and defensive?

I'm not a huge Gaga fan, and I think ayu is as close to a goddess as any human can be. But this time, I just don't think it's really fair to put ayu on such a high pedestal and judge Gaga so harshly, when she's obviously out of her element and in surroundings she's not used to.

As far as I can tell, yes, she does. Though I'm not sure if much of it actually gets through... Like the conversation transcript I did below as an example:

T: It's usual then. So what does Hamasaki Ayumi-chan wear to sleep?
A: For me... Erm, what's it? Oh yeah, because I often wear restrictive clothes when performing...
T: Like a cute kid's?
A: Fluttery
T: With lots of frills
A: What's with you?
FH: Tamori-san looks really happy.
A: Tamori-san seems to know this very well...
T: I'm sorry. I let my imagination run away.

The interpretor will probably be like "the host is asking the lady next to you what she wears to bed. she says because she wears restrictive clothes when performing..." Then everyone laughs and the translation probably goes haywire, leaving Gaga more or less clueless I guess. Poor thing, actually, I'd hate to be in that kinda situation...

[asmAyumi1992]

^Wow, conclusion for everything XD

Hey Misa, could I make a request the translation about the Perfume asking Gaga and Ayu? Please~ Thanks

[primavera♥]

[Hanabi_surreal]
