It's also very obvious that Ayu has gotten inspiration from Kylie and that's wonderful! We know Ayu gets inspiration from other artists like Madonna, etc, so no flops over here!

I think that issue has already been discussed.

Yup

Seems like Ayu has set a trend

^It's a good trend to set.

I'm super excited that Ayu is actually doing stuff even while we're dealing with coronavirus. New goods released tomorrow, new commentary for concerts, the ayumix challenge... its renewed my devotion to her.

You're right! And I was adding my opinion to the discussion! That's like saying people can't come here and talk about how surprised they are that Ayu had a baby even though it happened months ago... Not everyone comes on AHS everyday.

Anyways...

Didn't Namie Amuro also keep her son very private? Utada as well, actually. Come to think of it, we don't see much about Kuu's son either, though she has posted some videos/photos of him just without showing his face.

^ But what baffles me most about Ayu, is that she did not give any hint or announcement about her pregnancy. It was like: oh btw, p.s. I am a mom now lol. She did not even say who the father is. Whuuuut.

At least with Namie or Kuu, they announced their pregnancy. And we know who fathered their children.
It is not important, but is is very interesting and Ayu's case is definetely unique.

[taskinillusion]

^ That's true! And although we're dying from curiosity about these details, I also feel like "good for her!" to be able to keep what she wants private.

[mizuki-7]

She probably choose to say nothing in order to avoid criticism and personal attacks.

[truehappiness]

Tabloids got a lot of photos and from what we saw when Pei first was introduced and people jumping on him for the "underage smoking" pictures, I think she decided to just not say anything since there was no way it was going to be without drama.

[EndOfTheWorld]

It's interesting that a lot of the women that rose to popularity around that time keep having all baby boys.
Utada, Koda Kumi, Namie, now Ayu all had boys.

[pedronekoi]

ˆ Did she mention it was a boy tho? As I recall she refer to the baby as an "angel".

It’s almost seem like the child is non-existent.. Ayu didn’t even show his back view etc. But it’s ok, fans shld just respect her privacy. Although her child or partner draws great curiousity from fans. Hahah. The only thing we know is her Son has big eyes?? He sure looks like mama Thats base on what Mika nouguchi has said)

I don't recall that she used "boy" on TA but the first news articles reported it was a boy: https://www.sponichi.co.jp/entertain...mpression=true (use of kanji '男', but nothing official from Ayu herself that I'm aware of. it could be a false lead?)

She shared a picture of some baby shoes on TA: https://i.imgur.com/4nHaId4.png

I did not want to shut you up sorry, but I felt like your comment spiraled back in the discussion (as exactly that has been said and some others responded to that) so it did not add anything and just to let you know that there was an answer to that.

[Earth_maiden]

Is this even legal?

^ Is it handwriting on CD? XD and cover will be just a cut from magazine page

[Toniayu123]

^

Can we appreciate how good the Vogue (groove coverage remix) is? Better than the original song itself.

[kendelle]

I still have my bootleg Ayu Trance 2 and RAINBOW somewhere, the first way I every heard about Ayu back in high school....... :lmao

Selling that for 10 bucks, gotta admire the confidence xD
