Dug up from other thread;

Ayu's new love is a foreigner, Buys wedding ring in New York

Earlier Ayu was spotted in New York with a foreigner in NY buying a engagement ring, but the guy didn't have enough amount of money in the card to buy the ring in the shop and had to get more money from other sources. At the same time ayu slices the cake with tomoya showing how they are really in love. Who is her real love?

Ayu and Tomoya have been together for 5 years and atleast a dozen rumors about the two splitting up. (in NY) From a Japan tourist description, on October 11, ayu dress up sparkly from head to toe appearing in Tiffany jewelery shop. Besides her is her new love; a Latin "Tim" and looks like the two is planning a wedding. Tim at the age of 22, dressing up in a hiphop style and the appearance between the two has a huge contrast.
Ayu bought a pair of a large 3.47K heart shaped earing cost about $62,410.95 USD, she also gave the same kind of earing for her lover. The next day the two return to the shop and this time they went to the wedding rings counter on the second level. Tim bought both the wedding and engagement ring and all cost $43,584.50USD but with insufficient money in his card, he has pay the remaining dept next day.

According to the eyewitness description, Tim isn't tall, has a round face, thick eyebrows with big eyes looking like a (either sailor moon or a girl?). But based on his background, he sure got alot, at the age of 22, 5 years younger than ayu. His father is Futura the master of Japanese fine arts design who is also a good friend of Nigo the B.ape clothing designer. Tim is also
Kubozuka Yousuke's friend. On October 13 with his French nationality mother to paid the remaining dept while he was at it, he told the sales clerk; "I'm marrying a Japanese Pop Star" and shows the marriage certificate. His parents totally accepts the marriage and planning to announce this on Christmas.

On the other side.

The Japan media reportedly on October 2 ayu was celebrating a birthday party, boyfriend Tomoya rushes to scene after work and caused ayu in great excitement. The two hand in hand cutting the cake as if they're in a wedding. The record label denies without giving any comment. From someone who known ayu said, with regrets ayu said "why did i even bother to pay tomoya to go out with me". At the same time ayu said to tim's friend, "lately tomoya is getting suspicous, crap!" Ayu is suspected to be two sided."

Totally fake though. :]

And here's the translation of the ViVi that disputes the rumor above~

"Vivi Exclusive! NY special report!

AYU LOVES NEW YORK
We?ve got the exclusive on Ayu?s private side in the break between recording and shooting her PV. Watch as she walks around the town holding a pretzel in one hand, and visits a shop out of her favorite tv show, ?Sex and the City??We?ve got the full report on this freedom that Ayu could never have in Japan.

?There are some cities I visit for comfort, but NY is the opposite...I?ve got so much to do in such a short period of time?the recording and filming the PV?that I?m actually exhausted. (laughter) But when I come to this town, it really gives me a boost, makes me feel like I can?t loose. And I think that?s really the right choice here.?
Led by a police escort, Ayu stands fearlessly on the back of a truck, singing and dancing as it makes its way from Harlem to the center of Manhattan?

When Ayu went to NY to film the video for her new song, ?Bold & Delicious?, backed by the various scenery of NY, the Vivi crew came along for the shoot. And the Ayu we saw there gave off an aura that was more powerful than ever before.
?Dangerous? I actually was worried until the truck started moving, wondering if it would be really bumpy, but it actually went a lot smoother than we expected. Only, it was really cold! And embaressing! (laughter)?

The lyrics feel really good, scolding men who won?t make up their minds. And the gospel chorus makes any woman want to raise her fist and sing along. Ayu?s strength is perfect for this song. And in that PV, in NY, you can also see Ayu?s private side.
?Yeah, the staff said that they wanted to film my private side in this PV. So then I deiced that, since there?s no point in pretending to be natural, it might be difficult unless I had someone with me who I could always be myself with. And the first person that I thought of was John. So I had her do the creative direction for this PV. Movie cameras, steel cameras?the whole time we were here, I felt like I had a different kind of camera filming me.? The woman that Ayu calls ?John? is Mika Noguchi, the president of Peach John who often appears in Ayu?s ?Digi Digi Diary? column.

?Both of us will admit that she?s a stage mother. (laugher)? As you can tell from Digi Digi, the two are really close. And they?re both extremely powerful!
?I think I?m drawn to strong people. And I want to be strong myself. But I don?t want to only be strong. Because it?s your own weakness and pitiful side and uncool side that lets you understand other people?s pain. You can understand other people?s feelings because you can say, ?What if that was me?? and put yourself in their place. So what I wanted to show with ?Bold & Delicious? was the outer, visable strength, and with ?Pride?, it was that hidden, inner strength that exists along side human weakness.?
And this is Ayu?s charm! That charm is also in full force in ?Pride?, the double A side on ?Bold & Delicious?. Even though she should be someone so far above us, she always keeps the same viewpoint as a normal person. It is this, along with her warmth, that have won Ayu such long term support.

In NY, Ayu had not only the PV shoot and the recording, but a photo shoot with Vivi! And she seemed to glitter ever brighter, as if spurred on by the power of this city?
?But the thing that got to me during the shoot for Vivi was the pretzel I ate on 5th Ave. I was so hungry that I gobbled it up, but who knew pretzels stick to your teeth so badly? At first I just tried to get it off nonchalantly with my tongue as I was being photographed, but it was no use, so I tried a toothpick. But that didn?t help either, so I ended up having to really go at it with a bobby pin! I?m never eating a pretzel again! (laughter)?
Who would have thought that she?d have so much trouble with the pretzel Vivi prepared for her?
Well, let?s end this on a better note?this is the January issue, so let?s have a message to the readers.
?It?s a wonderful thing to always keep your antenna up and add new things. But I feel like if you only do that, nothing will be left? So even if it?s something that?s not cool, or something that criticize you for, keep believing in it if it?s important to you!?
Yes, Ayu is truly our leader. Let?s follow Ayu?s lead in 2006, and be strong and womanly!

AYU in MAGNOLIA CAFÉ
The day of the shoot. Ayu loves ?Sex and the City? so much that she tells us, ?I had it playing in my DVD play all morning today. When I saw these cupcakes in it, I just had to have one. It?s a really small store, but they sell like hot cakes! I was just staring at the case of cupcakes, deciding that I wanted a pink want, but I was lost in the huge crowd, and I couldn?t really get to the case. And I was getting worried, because the pink ones were the first to go. (laughter) How does it taste? Well?different than I thought. I guess you could say it tasted very American. (laughter)?

AYU in NOLITA
?It?s on a street that I always pass when I come to NY, a view I always see, but something finally caught my eye. That?s right, it?s the apartment I lived in before I made my debut? Today I saw the building from inside a beautiful limosine, my hair and makeup done professionally. Back then, I didn?t even have the money for a taxi, and I was always dashing to the studio in sweats, a huge bag slung over my shoulder? It really brings back memories, and it makes me realize again how important it is not to forget about it. My life, and my work now is put together by so many people. I can?t forget that I really have so many people I have to be thankful for.?

AYU at 5th Ave
?This time I really learned about gem stones in NY. I?ve always loved diamonds, but I?d never thought about the power or the meaning of gems. And then, when we were filming the PV?John, who?d been supporting me in all kinds of ways, lost set of big diamond earrings. But she didn?t seem depressed by it at all! I think they must have fallen off during the shoot, when she was taking off her headphones and putting them back on again and again, and when she was dancing. (laughter) But John said that it was thanks to those lost diamonds that the shoot when so well. That they had protected us! And that?s what got me thinking about the power and the meaning of gems. Because gems show you a clouded reflection of yourself. For the first time I bought a pair of big diamonds earrings with a purpose: not to become clouded.?

AYU at Bleecker St.
This street, close to the edgy, fashionable Manhattan, is the setting of ?Sex and the City?. ?The character I like the most in ?Sex and the City? is Samantha. Carrie feels pretty close to me, like if I wanted to, I could be like her. But not Samantha. Her strong character really intrigues me!?
?The people in NY always seem so put together. So before I came, I bought a whole bunch of dresses, and when I went out, I really went out in style. So most of the clothes in this photo shoot for Vivi are my own! And even now that I?m home from NY, I still feel like dressing up. I don?t wear casual clothes at all anymore. Even though it?s kind of like, ?Oh, where are you off too??, lately I?ve been only wearing dresses. Because it?s just so much fun, it makes you really feel like a woman!?"

And some Tomoya..old news.. stuff. xD

"This is the 4th "Jeanist" award presented to Hamasaki in two consecutive years, and a 5th win will give her the title of "Eternal Best Jeanist." In the past, Takuya Kimura (31) and Tsuyoshi Kusanagi (30), both of the popular group SMAP, have achieved this status; but no woman has ever attained this title. Hamasaki commented that, "I wear jeans almost every day. I have a huge selection, and the subtle differences in how they fade or what shape they are - things that only I would be able to tell apart - is part of what I love so much about them."

Hamasaki has just had her 26th birthday on the 2nd of this month, and while she laughed off questions regarding her personal life, when asked "Did the two of you spend it together?" she answered "yes," confirming that her relationship with Tomoya Nagase (25) is going well."
