but I do agree. I'd have preferred this or Cherry Girl instead of TAC. lol D:
anyways, I can't wait for the two new PVs and the new tracks *O*.
I hope SUPERSTAR PV will be as good as show girl's :luv2 . And You're so beautiful PV is probably the one who will have the fanclub members on it, so cute =3.

And don't worry guys, I've been praying that the UNIVERSE tracklist gets changed, as well as BEST ~third universe~! faraway is a beautiful ballad, and JUICY is epic. Kuu read AHS now!

her nailart so nice.

yeah, but IMO TAC not better than JUICY, maybe the purpose to put that song on the best album because it was feauring Fergie for that song. so people who havent heard thay song will buy it. using Fergie's name is smart strategy than use JUICY which 3 songs of 4 hot wave already in there imo

Crystal_Ageha 14th December 2009 05:39 PM

^ Looks like a wig.... And why is she so freakin' dark again, lol?? :thud Goodness, she really likes that tanning cream/bed sometimes, ah hah... Anyhow, she does look very cute. :heart

But if you already bought Kingdom, Trick and singles like 3 SPLASH, yeah I guess it's not really worth it.

Yes, well, I have all her albums so far, so... Yeah. That Ain't Cool, Kuu. -____-

Yeah I noticed that too. You can notice how much older it makes her look compared to that TRICK dvd cover being held up where she's not as dark. She's cute in that hat :heart

Do bear in mind that she's probably been Photoshopped a lot on the DVD cover. :P

our very own tenshi no hane translated KUMI's ViVi interview with Lady GaGa!

Spoiler:
Vivi 2009

Gaga-chan’s fashion is amazing!! by Kumi

Kumi: I’ve heard that there are times that when you create a song you start with creating an image out of fashion.

Gaga: That’s true! My balloon dress was such a case. I don’t see myself as a pop singer. I see myself as a pop performance artist. There’s a concept behind every of one of my creations; I can’t throw away my creations after [showing them off in] one PV or TV show! I believe it’s important to make people remember them by wearing them repeatedly and burning them into everyone’s mind.

K: Are you studying fashion a lot?

G: Yes, I am! I don’t look at magazines often. That’s because I keep my eyes on the future. My objective is always to see the things that I did in my videos featured in a magazine afterwards.

K: You are very original and always dress yourself stylishly. Like these shoulder pats.

G: Shapes are very important to me. For example, when I leave through the door I try to leave behind my own style. I want to make the kind of fashion that just by seeing the silhouette everyone can understand that that’s Gaga. I wish for everyone to also discover his or her own style. Buy a t-shirt and try to cut it the way you like! Make it your own style.

Kumi is a pretty person just like in her PV’s ♥ by Gaga.

G: What’s important in your style?

K: The one thing where I pay the most attention to is if you can recognize the style easily! That’s because Japanese and Americans have different body figures. Americans have long legs. You can see that in the style bon-kyu-bon* they solve that by putting stress on the waist via corsets.

G: Really? You say that, Kumi, but that isn’t pretty like what I saw in your PV’s! I think American women would like to be reborn as Japanese women since they are so slender. Funny, isn’t it? (laughs)

K: Really?? How strange! I guess the grass looks greener on the other side (laughs). By the way, is that outfit (p.33 upper right photo) made of plastic? That’s painful to wear, isn’t it?

G: It’s painful (laughs). That’s why just before a TV show I had to alter my dance.

K: ! (laughs). I guess endurance is also important in fashion.


Vivi: What’s your impression of each other?

G: I’m happy I got to meet Kumi! I’m a huge fan. I’ve seen all her PV’s. TABOO is my favourite one!
K: I’m also very happy ♥ I learned about Gaga-chan via an overseas TV show. Her pitch is great! I wondered how can she could sing so well while dancing at the same time when I saw her.

Vivi: Please tell us about your hairstyles.

K: Gaga-chan, that isn’t your real hair, is it?
G: It’s a wig.
K: I’ve cut my hair short because there are a lot of women in Japan with long hair.

Vivi: What do you do on your day off?

G: I drink (laughs).
K: I only watch DVD’s. Like Sex and the City, L’s World and Desperate Housewives etc.

Vivi: Please talk about what you’re wearing today!

G: I’m wearing rhombus shaped velvet joined together with a cat suit and Chanel shoes. I made the wig myself.
K: Because I would be photographed with Gaga-chan, I’m wearing lots of ‘nudie’ and sexy things to fit with her.

-------
*Literally means "big-small-big". It’s a Japanese style focussed at flaunting curves.

(-chan is suffix usually used for (small) girls btw)

i like how she calls her Gaga-chan. :laugh

As long as Kumi doesn't attempt English again, I'm fine with her collaborating with another Western artist :)

GaGa probably wouldn't let her get away with bad pronunciation; she's such a perfectionist. Fergie basically handed the song off to KUMI after she recorded her parts and was like "ok finish it" (she actually said that lol, she didn't have time and let KUMI do her parts) i know GaGa's schedule is crazy and will be until mid-next year, but if they do something i hope it'll be done right.

don't make fun, it used to be 100% worse if that's possible. when i found out Twinkle ~English Version~ was actually all in English, i was shocked and didn't believe it until i had the lyrics right there in front of me to read along and it vaguely resembled the words she was trying to sing.

AyUta 15th December 2009 01:02 AM

Haha, aw <3 I hope they collaborate in the near future!
