is it true..?

[panda♥]

exactly. i don't think Ayu has gotten plastic surgery. as people say ; when you see pictures of her without makeup her eyes are smaller, so it proves that eye makeup and mascara have made her eyes appear alot bigger than what they are.

because as someone said before. if you think about it ; Ayu has been going non stop for 10 years. if she got eyes surgery before, she would need a great amount of time to recover from it. when have you heard of Ayu stopping for months and months to recover from something? it's most obviously just the eye makeup.

and those plastic surgery videos are very fake. people change over the course of years and the person took very professional photos and compared them to photo's of them when they were very young without any make up or anything.

[truehappiness]

Yeah..

Some of the photos used to compare are also photoshopped to make her eyes appear larger. An example is the almond eye princess photo that everyone uses to "prove" the surgery.


Although, Ayu's nose seems to have gotten fixed over time.. I dunno how, but it just looks so.. caucasian. I don't know if your nose can change over time..

I read (don't remeber where though) that the person from the left was someone from Korea or sth like that.
Unfortunately i can't find the picture which was a rip of her AT 06. If you own the dvd, look at the video from the credits. When it's almost finished, ayu is talkin to someone else and she has no make up on her.
Her eyes look EXACTLY as they did in the past. I think what makes her eyes look bigger (apart from photoshop...) is her make up and the LONG eyelashes they put on her (which make her look really sexy btw XD!!)

EDIT: does anybody knows where do the pic from the right come from?? is it from a magazine or what?

The picture on the left is indeed Ayu, but she was like 16/17/18..

I really don't care if she had surgery or not (I have nothing against cosmetic surgeries and if they weren't so expensive and hadn't so many risks I would definitely correct my body too) but I just have to say that it really doesn't take months and months to recover from a surgery like that. Or if you put it in other way: it does take months to recover but not like that you have to sit home and do absolutely nothing. I've read that ppl are ready to go to work in 10 days after the surgery but most ppl still need sunglasses for example when outside because of the sun etc. (sunglasses, hmm.. That's an easy disguise ).

And as well as small eyes can be made big with makeup can makeup also make those scars disappear..

As I said I don't really care if she had surgery or not all I say is that she looks way different and makeup can do wonders but how big wonders? I'm not sure.

^ I always thought her nose was one of her biggest asian features.. the flat back bone of it.

[Ayumi_lover]

Mmmm ithink she could smoke when she is drunk, but this pictures... i have so many doubts about them... you know

[nightlightyear]

The other thing about the pic of her supposedly holding a cig and a cup is that you have to keep in mind that that pic is from 2002, almost six years ago. She may've been a heavier smoker then, could still smoke but only on occasions...

I believe that the cases of her smoking and plastic surgery will never be closed. People's features change over time, but many Japanese people undergo surgery later on in life. And a lot of people smoke in the world, even people in Japan. I'm sure she isnt 100% focused on lighting a cig all the time. Personally I think shes quite "keen" on her career more than she has seemed to be in the past, you know?

[pUrpLeSn0w]

but then can we really confirm that the person in the pic we're talking bout is really ayu?
i thought it looked quite blurry.. =X

is it possible that one only smoke socially?
i thought it's addictive..then one will smoke more gradually...? hmmz..

[carolcrea]

AYU got a little chubby recently...and people's weights increase after they quit smoking...and so maybe ayu has quit smoking so that she can continue to strive on for her career healthily...her 10th anniversary! in my opinion...

yeah i thought she looked more chubby recently too lolz..

[dayumi]

Well people also smokes when they got stressed... am I right?

[Meat Pao]

Oh no... i hate smokers. Their bad breath pisses me off.

[Bigtop]

I think maybe smoking is really bad - this can affect lungs, and I think this can affect vocals on singers who smoke...

I don't think smoking is right. Maybe Avex should implement a strict smoking policy... (By the way, the area where I live is a state law that prohibits smoking inside and within 25 feet of entrances. I've also learned on a health lesson that smoking has chemicals and is bad...)

[Calico]

Personally, I ultimately don't care. The only thing about smoking is that it could have adverse affects on her health and her voice. And I'd agree that she probably doesn't smoke that much otherwise there would probably be more photographic evidence, especially in Japan where smoking isn't considered as much of a huge deal like here.

As for veneers constituting as actual surgery, if I'm in the dentist's chair and they have to sedate me to do hours worth of work to permanently change the appearance (as I've been through about seven times now) it's surgery. Veneers may not be as hardcore as crowns/bridges but to me that's still getting oral surgery.

Many people smoke. Many people in Asia have eyelid lifts. It's really not a big deal.
