Wow, interesting to see how many foreign articles are being written about Ayu.

And I agree about the BBC picture. >_<

To think ayu has struggled with this problem with increasing difficult for eight years...poor ayu...don't know what future will lie ahead of her..but it's gratifying to see ayu not giving up on herself and i hope people will not treat this as an oh-ok-*flip to next page* news.

I wonder if they'll talk about it in Poland, I doubt. I actually don't want to hear about those news anymore.

OMG.
I doubt Estonia's printed media reported it, but at least the online media did, which is good enough.

EDIT: I've just been informed that even printed media has reported it. I'mma try and snatch me some newspapers.

I'm tired of all these news stories. They're just taking advantage of the headline "deaf singer"; they don't really care what happens to Ayu. And as ImpactBreaker has pointed out, they really suck at getting the facts straight (probably since there are so few in the first place). The good thing is that with as fast as news spreads, it will quickly become old news.

Sad that it had to have her hit news for something so sad

It's a morbid thought, but I wonder if the global media coverage this is getting will make people curious about her music. She might get a new crop of international fans out of this if it does.

I don't think it will get people interested in her music. I say this because I'm just like that when I'm reading the papers. If I saw some news of some russian famous pop star (with a local fame, but not worlwidfe fame) going deaf, I'd just read it and forget it, and go read other news.

^ I agree. Unless you don't have some kind of, hm, interest in Japan and still don't know Ayu, that would spark some curiosity on her, I guess. Other than that, i think people would mostly be neutral about it.

Here in Portugal I can't find any news about her =|

I'm watching BBC news 24 to see if she pops up, sad that they're taking advantage, but nice that she's mentioned.
