What publicity stunt should Ayu pull?

[Keishi]

Well, it's not really as bad as how you interpret that.
Ayu's appearance in recent photos was really skinny, and people just surprised to see her 'beefed' she was in her recent live performance.

[explodingbird]

Exactly. Suddenly she's at a healthy weight and people are talking about her like she's a damn whale. It's sick.

[Keishi]

damn whale.

Well, I gotta agree with that.

Elephant Ayu the Wale.

lets ask Paris Hilton! she prolly has a book of good publicity stunts! and if those dont work, she could always:

release another best album,
do a world tour,
or drasticly change her image....just not the whole "DROOL OVER ME CUZ IM SEKUSHII YEA!" image

I know I made a similar post in a different thread, but she WAS at a healthy weight. Someone makes it sound like she was some kind of cracked-out-Hollywood-keiko-nicole-mary-kated-out. She wasen't. She looked perfectly normal, she looked well for her age and she diden't even look "teen skinny" (which often is due to rapid growth, but never seems to wear off some people.. like amoru) I'm not claiming that she's at an unhealthy weight now. But, It's no wonder that people get eating disorders when "Oh you look so healthy and great" that's what people say when someone actually gains, it will surely make a lot of people think they're in danger of getting obese. I don't think there are a lot of people (well, at least not girls and except people who try to build muscles) who would take that as a compliment, >_< Also she's no american, she's not buildt like europeans or africans.

Sorry for getting all worked up by this. But calling someone unhealthy because they're slim is no good way to fight overweight either. Which is a bigger problem now than any eating disorder.

And as a final note, when at least I write of "obese whale ayu" it's mostly because she changed and it's something to make a joke on. =P I know ayu is far from the personification of obese.

Putting on a bit of weight sure was one huge publicity stunt.

Just look at those boards.

What will she come up with next?

[truehappiness]

She'll probably "cut" all her hair off.

Or announce a new plus size clothing line.

[immel]

XXXXL clothes, for small people who want to feel big.

[truehappiness]

Indeed.

They'd be called "Ayuveralls."
And they'll fit around your head with a built in kitchen and bed

then the video should be posted on Youtube.

Sounds like fun. Can we join?

If you make a hundred more of those smileys we might be let in.

Seriously, it's the cutest one.

Ayu should make her own smiley set, and let us download it from her page!

Now that would be a cool publicity stunt

[AyuGAME]

i think for her new mini album...she just need to have a poster, flyer, and tv-cm is enough...because JEWEL is really AWESOME song...so i think it can boosting up the sales...hope it will get a great cover..and a great PV for the rest of new songs!

[truehappiness]

TV-CM is NEEDED.

(m)u seriously lacked any sort of a real CM with single-PV footage >> All it had was 'making of' footage..

Grrr. New York smells.

She should pretend to be a lesbian..or maybe she should pretend to have a long lost child.

[*Petit*]

It diden't help "GAM", I dont think it will work for ayu. And for some reason ayu is one of the last female pop stars that I can imagine doing lesbian image. Koda, namie, even Boa I could imagine, but not ayu. She proabl woulden't be able to pull it off well. Not een when I saw the A BALLADS cover I thought of "lesbian"-suff untill aomeone brought it up. =P

[truehappiness]

Are you sure? Melodies seems to be doing pretty 'okay..'~

[Surreal]

WORLD TOUR WORLD TOUR WORLD TOUR

[immel]

Sing a song in Swedish and release it in Kenya.
