I'm glad she did so, even if it does not change how the general public views or judges her.

I think it's good she's speaking out about this and I do think people were overreacting but some of what she said seemed hypocritical. I want to comment further on this but the translation seems rough so I'll wait until we get a better one.

Ayu keeps beating around the bush here and I couldnt find any points to understand exactly what she wants to tell, but for sure people tend to compare the look no matter how what
Maybe she did do something to the face and boobs so yeah

That's pretty messed up. I wonder which staffers have done that.

I won't make a full translation because Team Ayu posts are meant to be private, but I made a summary.
Please note that it's not her staff who told her to lose weight etc. AyuAngel probably misread it; I almost did too. -- She thanks everyone for watching the LINE LIVE and Instagram Live yesterday. She was very nervous. She just can't get used to those live recordings. When she looked back at the recording, she was also surprised at how bloated and swollen she looked. Lately she's been swamped with the tour, CDTV rehearsals and other 20th year anniversary stuff during the day, and when she gets home, she immerses herself in song writing. She admits she's living on sheer adrenalin lately (aka not getting enough rest). Regarding yesterday, her staff was told things like, 'Ayu should probably lose some weight' and 'Ayu's photos are edited too much'. They talked to Ayu about how it frustrates them to be told such things. That's part of the reason she started writing this message. Although she does understand why people say things like that. She admits that she looked completely different in one day yesterday. The Ayu during the LINE LIVE, the Ayu during the instagram live and the Ayu on her twitter looked completely different. However, she asks, haven't any of you ever worked all day, get home looking haggard and thin, and then wake up the next morning bloated? She admits she was too tired yesterday and couldn't be a good host because of it. She should've slept properly, knowing it was an important day. She's sorry she didn't. She may look different at different moments in one day, but it's still Ayu during all those moments. She's not writing this message to proclaim she's not fat or doesn't edit her photos. She simply feels worried about how normal and easy it has become to edit yourself through apps and upload the perfect you on social media nowadays. She doesn't feel the goal is to have as big eyes as possible or be as thin as possible, etc. Everyone is born with their own physique. Their own individuality. She doesn't want people to lose sight of that. That is the real message she wants to get across today. Apps are just apps. Don't be too hasty. We are much more beautiful beings that we think, even without relying on such apps. She loves Team Ayu, today too. (She also uploaded 5 photographs of herself during rehearsals at 11 o' clock, 6 hours after the LINE LIVE. To show how she looked then.) -- Last edited by tenshi no hane; 2nd April 2018 at 08:43 AM. |

People need to give her a break, it was probably just period bloat.
It's just stupid, just because she isn't 6 stone or whatever anymore people think she's fat. |

I'm kind of sad that her looking so different all the time is apparently still because she's not properly taking care of herself, with her not taking rest and not sleeping and so on. I actually thougt she had that behind her?

What bothers me most is that people aren't worried about her looking "fat" because of her health, but only because they find it unpleasant to look at an Ayu that isn't photoshopped.

She has more energy and drive than I do and looks pretty good considering her age. I hope I can age that well.

No doctor would determine her to be fat so why are people being nasty? Oh she is so fat in comparison to herself in her teens. Aren't we all?

Bless Ayu for writing this. Needed to be said.

I thought Ayu looked youthful and pretty. Regardless of her age. But Japan is pretty weight conscious and the standards for what is thin and what is fat are different.

Expectation: Ayu is surrounded by yesmen who agree with everything she does because she lives in a pink bubble alienated from the world.
Reality: "Ayu, y u so fat?" Last edited by Andrenekoi; 3rd April 2018 at 02:54 AM. |

Thank you for the clarification, Tenshi! It's less bad that it wasn't her own staff telling her that. It's known to all of us that Ayu's weight fluctuates from time to time, but I wish people weren't so harsh on her. I'm more worried about her not sleeping and eating properly then her looking a little "bloated." She's such a workaholic, though...

With all that hectic schedule by day, she still writing songs by night... is she human? Dear God, let her get enough rest.
