Ok, so all of the inf and pictures are in the spoilers! ;)

The new PV Hot Girls includes around 400 members of her fanclub, who you can see in the screenshots posted. So awesome :heart

Covergirl, put that bass in your walk. Head to toe, let your whole body talk. Work.

Flawless deadpan Namie is flawless.

ONLY YOU is a gorgeous PV. :heart

The next thread title can be "Yeah-OH! Let's Go In The Spotlight, Hot Girls!"

Is it just me or Only You PV has Guilty cover / photobook feeling, not only the scene but even the dress, eps the belt. It was my first thought when the PV started :)

wow, the PV for "Hot Girls" looks amazing so far just by looking at those pictures. namie is looking fierce, too! :heart i can't wait to watch the PV!

omg dress.

I love namie with bangs <3

I love her bangs so much!!! :luv2 :luv2 :luv2

Namie's new album title is "Uncontrolled" !
It was written on the bracelets given to the fans during the MV of Hot Girls.
It’s a bit blurry but you can clearly read “uncontrolled” at the end:

I'm really liking the album title, simple but it works.

awwww she looks so amazing in hot girls.

Yeah those were my thoughts too, esp the belt too, lol! Namie looks great in a very uneventful PV but I still don't care for the song at all.

If the title really is "Uncontrolled" I would be happy with that *.*

Same here ^__^

When Hot Girls pv is gonna release?

I don't like the album title :S

Uncontrolled sounds gd!!

Uncontrolled for 20th of her career?

Thoughtful and interesting..

Uncontrolled sounds like a cool title.

ONLY YOU is beautiful.

I'm so excited for Hot Girls!

UNCONTROLLED sounds like a great title!

I'm so excited for this album. Just based on all the songs I know on it I feel like it's going to be my favorite yet.

Your message looks like a lyrics for Namie.

I hope there is a hidden track in this album.

I love the hidden track in one of her album....but which one is it again lol.

Seeing alot of the curled 90s bangs on girls here in Tokyo!

The Gisele cover reminds me of Kumis BEST~third universe~ photo with the white background, if you know what I mean =)

Beautiful scans! :heart Thx for posting. She's stunning as always!

^ELIN, I've tried to PM you a few times but you have PMs turned off I think? I WANT TO SEND YOU PM's!!! :thud

I love the title "uncontrolled". :heart

It's capslock "UNCONTROLLED" :P.

I really dislike the title. And also, why do people not credit sources when copying (basically stealing in this case) from other sources. Be nice and credit. :tired.

Anyways big thanks to Maemi for the organized first post!

if the title is 'Uncontrolled' then we will have an uncontrolled tour :D

Title is great! But I'm really hoping that she doesn't have those bangs in the album covers... And also that that's not the exact order of the track list. How lame would it be to have all the new songs at the beginning and then all the old at the end? :weep

GIVE US THE COVERS ALREADY!!!!! :dead

I love the new song and the PV is gorgeous, and the album title is cool :luv2

guys, what does her new tattoo say? :)

Thank you all so much for posting all of the pics and information regarding the album! I absolutely love the title "UNCONTROLLED" and I hope that the covers are as fierce as the title. Also, I can't wait to see the "Hot Girls" PV, I love the concept and hope to see some beautiful fashion! It's so awesome that she has her fanclub members in the video! I bet they're so excited to take part in her 20th anniversary album! The magazine scans are also gorgeous as usual! Hopefully she'll reveal the official order of the tracklist and covers soon. That's what I want to see the most, lol.

LMAO! "Walk... now walk... walk... now walk..." Love it!

fierce GISELe cover! :heart and "UNCONTROLLED" is a fierce album title, too. :cool

UNCONTROLLED it's such a cool album name :luv2

And she's gorgeous as always on ViVi shoot and GISELe cover both :heart

so tittle is official. sounds good nothing special but pretty good.

I really like Uncontrolled as a title!

she looks gorgeous!!

Covers! Covers! Covers! lol

I know I haven't posted here before but huge Namie fan since hmm maybe 2005, so as always, when a new album is announced the excitement builds :)

I think the main reason why she wanted to have her bangs again is to commemorate her 20th anniversary. She looks exactly the same!!! Only that she's prettier and ever more GLAMOROUS NOW.

srry if i sounded like a troll XD

namie, plssssss let me age slow like you :tired

I'd gotten used to 'TBA' :laugh

'UNCONTROLLED' does seem like a pretty cool title and theme though.

Do we know if the tracklist is the final tracklist? As in will it be the 4 new songs at the beginning or is it likely to be all shuffled up so it flows better?

OMFG.

I am speechless *almost*.

Uncontrolled is a brilliant title name and Namie looks so damn fierce in those photos! I cannot wait for the new album (I am actually going to purchase it too, so I'm even more excited) and I CANNOT FREAKING WAIT FOR THE 20TH ANNIVERSARY CONCERT.

UNCONTROLLED ATM x) I really hope they will post the Covers today!!!! (I have a strong feeling that it would be today)

^I reallyyyyy hope so.

I literally cannot contain myself. Two of my favorite artists are releasing a crap load of stuff within the next 2-3 months and it's overwhelming in an amazing way haha.

^THIS!
2012 is just so asesome, all of my favourite artists release new album: Namie, Kylie, Madonna, Aerosmith & Linkin Park <3

P/S: It's Official now, no capslock lol

I'll just tag the album however it appears on the cover. :P

Past < Future is written in all caps on official announcements but on the album itself it's written normally, so I just go with that. :P

I don't get why people care about caps lock in album or song titles. Seriously, does it matter? I don't understand. :no

^ It doesn't lol. People just need to find something to be anal about/ take their OCD out on!

Namie will hold a Dome Tour in November!!!!!
It was confirmed in 『GISELe』 Magazine interview

DOME TOUR??? Queen of Pop to be honest

OMG DOME TOUR

the queen is coming back again this year

Some of us are obsessed with tagging the titles correctly on last.fm :mischief lol but yeah, it's not important at all...

Anyway, can't wait to see the covers :cool

DOME TOUR!!!!!! WHOAAAAA

Second Dome Tour! :D Didn't she do one back in 1997 for Concentration 20 too? This is so awesome. I can't wait to see what it looks like! *fan of dome tours* ^_^

Yes! I love me some RuPaul. :D

A Dome Tour? It's about damn time and long overdue imo. As for the album title, I feel her previous album "Past<Future" fit the title better. Regardless, I do like the title. It's sounds very "Western Pop-ish". :yes

Still no covers... I might die waiting... :thud
And please please PLEASE let the track list not be in that order :weep

^ hahaha LOL this album just causes us so much pain i can say x))

The supposed track listing order does not bother me. I can use itunes to arrange the songs to my discretion. :yes

I'm secretly hoping she ADDS more tracks to the album. :cry

It's not in that order, it even says that the order isn't finalized on VF site :)

I love how so many people are so excited for this new album even if there's only a handful of new songs :laugh The power of Namie

And finally a dome tour :luv2

@Rocky lol I know =D

@Lady~Deviance I don't like to change the order of an album for some reason, so for me I'm stuck with whatever order they decide to put it in :thud But either way I won't really be too bothered by it, I guess :laugh

@aloopy I hope you're right! What a relief that'll be if it's in a different order :banana2

she totally have to do the dome tour!

dome tour OMG YES ANOTHER TOUR

her tours are amazing

OMG DOME TOUR.

*Heart Palpitations*

This is waaay too much excitement, I might literally explode all over the forums.

Dome Tour? That's so awesome! :heart
I want to see the album covers, I hope they'll release the covers soon :yes

Yesss! The best Namie song!!

There is so much to be excited about. Going to be an amazing album! She's looking gorgeous in both PVs, and in the magazines too.

Uncontrolled is a great title. So excited!!

Would it be one of the covers by any chance ?
If it's the case, I find that the whole design looks kinda cheap :/

^ How could that be a cover? Have you not seen the shape of a CD case? :/

:no

^ It could be from the album's photoshoot since it's a new pic though.

^ Well even the picture would more likely just be a promo pic then an actual cover picture, especially since the covers have not yet been revealed. However, Heavenly said the design looked cheap, but it's just a banner for her FB. The album isn't going to say "20th anniversary" and "dome tour on it" :rolleyes

Plus, larger promo picture.

calm down kids

I'm like crying...

I cannot believe this!

And sooo exciting that she's letting us vote for the dome tour songs. Both her and Kuu are rocking my world right now in the fan-involvement levels this year.

Dome tour?! YAY! I don't have to go all the way to Okinawa! haha.

Yay! :D Really curious to know how will it going to be!

I think this is a picture of the app

Namie fb

What songs did you guys vote for? I voted for I WILL, I HAVE NEVER SEEN, PLEASE SMILE AGAIN, Dreaming I am dreaming, Come. All my favorite songs :heart
(No surprise that CAN YOU CELEBRATE? is topping the charts on FB lol)

This year is such an exciting one for us Namie fans :D And I can't wait until the live in Okinawa (already booked flight and hotel tickets!)

^ yah I voted for those songs too!!!!
So much excitement in the morning !!

Please let there be covers when I wake up tomorrow :weep lol

^This

Also...I voted for basically everything? I noticed a lot of her earlier stuff had low votes which made me frustrated/sad. I know it's still early, but for nostalgia's sake I would love to see her perform some of those classics.

everyone wants her to sing CAN YOU CELEBRATE? :D :D :D

Voted for Say the Word, Come and Fight Together

I. MUST. GO.
Am I a totally freak for voting for a walk in the park :laugh

Usually, the promo pic is in the same vein than the actual covers.
