OMG. OhEmGee. That dress is so gorgoeus. *envy* She never ceases to amaze me with her simple, elegant beauty. *sigh*

the DRess look nice.. BUT the tan she got -____- dont like it one bit...

Actually, I think that's jsut the picture. She has gotten much darker, but I think in that picture, the low curves and levels make the shadowing more severe. I took it into photoshop and messed with them. She looks much lighter once the levels have been adjusted to a brighter setting - more to natural sunlight.

She looks pretty hot! :D

Thanks for the info, kawai.:thumbsup

Thanks for that information! I really love that dress she is wearing, she looks dazzling!

she looks awesome!! i love her new dress, it's really sweet.

Is there a winged ayu on the wall?????!!!?? i wanna see it whole!!!

Thanks for the pics :) The dress is lovely on her, pity about the lighting though.

hmm a little bit scary!

but at the other photos she looks very nice.

and btw... where did you get them Madeen?

wow... the first 2 Ayufan just post... she looks really nice ^_^

tanx for the pics ^^ she looks great...i love her dress! ^^

That's a really nice dress she has on! IMO, it probably would've been better if the dress itself went down to her ankles, instead of ending at her knees and having that see-thru fabric cover the rest, but that's just me :) ! Thanks for the pics ;)

this scary one is from here - http://arena.nikkeibp.co.jp/news/20040510/108554/

Wow, that sure is a gorgeous dress! Lookin' good, Ayu!

The first picture, her smile looks a bit forced. I always liked the natural, spontaneous pictures of her better anyway.

wow there's winged ayu, i knew it! any bigger photos of that wall? i really want to see her closer

woww.. she looks so pretty.. her hair is styled nicely :) I love her dress and shoes too...

having the dress come down to your knees with the rest of it being see-through is pretty fashionable these days..

The first two pics aren't working .. nor is the link .. can someone please upload them :( if you saved them

lol nevermind ... now they're working ... she looks beautiful ^^ I'm not really liking how she's styling the front of her hair but she still looks great .. cute shoes too

If any of you watched 'Sister Sister' with those twins .. does this picture remind you of the mother Lisa o.O

Also, I forgot =X, will she be singing some song during the opening of the Olympics? Would be cool if they aired that part here in the states and she's singing ...

I like the pictures.. very nice :)

I LOVE that dress, it's soooooooo petty, dresses like that are really in fashion right now. But it's like my friend Eiko was telling me, (she's Japanese but living here for a while) the Japanese are always right on top of fashion, but she claims that Americans are usually 2-3 months late with it. I don't like the tan ether and the HAIR oh god... please go back to the short blonde hair, that was soooooooooooo cute :o

Wow, she looks so pretty. I like that dress!

I actually like her hair darker this way then the synthetic tan look she's had for ages...

thanks! ayu looks pretty in that white dress!

I actually like her hair in these pictures. I think it looks really cute, but maybe that's just me. I also like her hair shoulder length &darker brown better than short, blonde hair too. I like her more natural.
