[NEWS] Ayu to film PV in Hong Kong!
 

Ayu to film her new PV in Hong Kong, the lead actor will be Shawn Yue

Ayumi Hamasaki will be going to HK to film her new PV, and famous HK heart-throb Shawn Yue will be playing the lead actor. Ayu originally wanted Liu Wei Qiang to direct the PV, but he is not free. However, more exciting things are to happen!

After her HK concert in April, Ayu will be heading to HK again. Avex treats this very seriously and the top management has been in talks with director Liu. Liu says "It's too bad that I have to be in America on the 28th for a movie...but me and Ayu...we will be having a collaboration that's even better!!!"

When asked whether it's a movie, he refused to say anymore.

note: it's shawn YUE, not LEE. someone please change the wrong topic name. (more info on him: http://asianfanatics.net/forum/lofiv...hp/t21432.html )

omggg...i hope its true....my paper is more trustworthy than other newspapers (with the exception of the Zao Bao; thats wad i feel)...lets hope its true...

cool! interesting...

wow.. its hard to believe that ayu will be filiming a PV with Shawn Yue. i mean thats not ayu's style.. ayu's PV seldom have a lead actor in it.. we will see how it goes.. :)

haha i think firstly, she is breaking into chinese market more officially
secondly, she is doing something different (hopefully she acts with him haha!)

wooohoo! Maybe a new "Voyage" video :D a new mini-movie <3

YEAH~ tHIS NEWS IS true! ayu is gonna come to HK AGAIN! We are so lucky^^~ I am goin' to see her this time again^^~

Ayu knows what to do! she is gonna take over Asia it seems!

OMG! IT'S COOL! :) We will have a great PV :P

OMFG YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

that's awesome, can't wait

brief translation:
ayu will fly to Hong Kong on June 1st to film a short movie for the new single "glitter/fated".
the male character in the movie is HK's rising star, Shawn Yue.

A new short movie??? Like Voyage??! :D GREAT NEWS!

great ! I hope it's not a beach pv !!! >_<
thanks !

Ok so all these rumors are real!? For once the hk media are accurate !

Rough translations
I have a great news that I will like to share with all of you!

After today's and tomorrow's performance in Osaka, I'll be heading to HK to shoot a short film(if i never translate wrongly) for my upcoming double A side single [glitter/fated].

The film will be shooting on the streets of HK(serves as a background), which also have a typical Asian flavour. The person who will be working with me is the rising star of HK/Asia, actor Shawn Yue (acted in the movie, Infernal Affairs).
So what's Ayu's relationship with Shawn Yue? Friends? Lovers? Brothers? (DA1SUK1DAY01691 pointed out that it should be siblings)

Details cannot be disclosed to you all right now, but rest assured that this will be a incredible summer work.
Thus, please wait patiently for it!

Well this is a great idea. Might even result in great sales in HK and more tabloid fun I bet

Very interesting. Seems it will be a pretty serious job so I'm expecting some good pvs for this single.

O_O Wow.. I hope it's for the Secret PV! ^^ That would make my wishes come true! *sparkles and dances around*

Thanks for the translation kiseki89. I just hope the HK tabloids will be nice to Ayu :)

That will be great but i dun think you can link Secret and summer together...

I got a feeling there are more than just PVs of glitter and fated in the dvd....

10x a lot :)

Thanks for sharing! Hope she have a safe trip to Hong Kong and be nice there...

Wow...this is a really great new! Thanks!

Does anyone have pictures of Shawn Yue? His being called a heartthrob makes me hope glitter will have a romantic PV. Maybe the PV will be storyline-based and not just pretty pictures?

A short movie? That sounds very good.

OMG!! So cute!!

Lovers?? But he's only 17 years old O_o (A shota scene?!) I don't think Ayu has a friend so young, maybe mother+child XDD

Wrong person... This guy is from singapore....
The one ayu's working with is from hong kong - Shawn Yue 余文樂 (26)

That's a really BIG difference!

Hahahahaha thank goodness!!! XDDD He's really so hot! :thud Good, 26/27 years old, perfect for a love scene :D

omg awesome news, thanks so much!

*excited* Sounds great. Thanks for the news :D

Lol, he actually looks like the guy in the back of the first pic xD

Short movie sounds interesting, hopefully it won't be another traditional-Asian stuff, becouse Voyage didn't work really well... I hope it will have Internal Affairs/Hong Kong action cinema flavour :P

Woah!!! A short film would be amazing. I really loved Ayu's acting in Tsuki ni Shizumu, she's so good. Either way this is gonna be something new and different.. and that excites me :D

well...hello hottie. :)

YAYYY ayu in HK again !!! mayb i'll bump into her ... purposely muhahaha~

omg....the rumors were true...and for once the chinese reporters were right...o_O...

in the streets of HK??? I wanna be in HK now...T_T...

Well that's...interesting and different. Thanks for the report!

I wonder how many PVs will be shot in HK...

Cool. ^^ "Short movie" - Sounds nice! Wonder if it will be for one song or both. I hope it's for both! ^.^ Like telling the first part of the story in "glitter" (happy and bright, for example) and continuing with "fated" (sadder, but still hopeful, for example).

I prefer enemies at first and lovers after...why do I have this feeling the short film will be like the chinese gang movies (internal affairs) and Mr. & Mrs. Smith??

Sounds like Bold&Delicious/Pride because both were shot in New York! :innocent

Cool! I cannot wait!!!!

So can this Shawn Yue guy speak Japanese or might the movie be in another language???

^English?

hear hear :) a short movie like tsuki ni shizumu would be nice and would be def. a sales-booster. not that its important but, you know ... would be nice.

Didn't think about this... I thought that maybe it will be like "The Trilogy"? Just more movie-like? Maybe like the "CAROLS" clip in AT05. Telling a story without words.

Kinda. But they weren't linked by a story (they hadn't really one in the first place...). Both PVs were mainly linked by being shot in the same place.

that is really cool!!
can't wait to see the PV

tnks for the news!

Very interesting news! Cant wait for the single to come out

that's great! i'm excited for the PV now.

i guess i'm excited... because this sounds VERY interesting...

and Shawn Yue is a cutie... *siiiiiiiiigh*

Her words "... on the streets of HK ..." reminded me for a moment of INSPIRE. Well, right until she said "typical Asain flavour." :laugh

So since fated is the song being used for the movie, I wonder if the Hong Kong shot will be for only that song? :innocent Could be for glitter, too, I guess, but my guess is leaning more towards fated.

wow!! i can't wait!

i don't really like Shawn Yue, he's acting isn't that great and he's not very hot :P

I am not going to buy this single because she filmed in hong kong.
I </3 Hong Kong.

serious? i'm happy it's filmed in hk and not in US again, but i just don't like Shawn Yue i've seen about 5 of his movies and i never thought he was "hot" just normal :tipsy (one of his favourite singers is Eason! :P)

Oo! That or a theme like "vogue, Far Away, SEASONS" trilogy! :)

amazing
i can't wait it!!

You can buy the CD ONLY version.

this was reported by HK newspaper but no one believed it.

Streets of HK? We should probably get alot of candid photos!

hope this short movie will be great and not bored!

*gasp* Oh, yeah! That'd be really neat! :D

it would be soooo cool if Lau Wai-Keung directed Ayu's PV, he's like one of the most popular directors

the PV would have a very good storyline

No. This is true which has been confirmed in TA Message.
Ayu will arrive HK on 1st June at around 9:00pm.

It's great to hear that Ayu will come to HK again for the PV shooting.
And that's nice that she will stay in HK for a relatively longer period of time!:D

hmm this would be interesting :D

extepan meant that HK newspapers put this news out before the TA announcement, but not many people believed it at that time.

ooo..his KNOWN in Japan too! tat makes double impact on both sides...cool!

is it really a short film?? O_O

Well, she'd probably say PV if it was the PV..

So, perhaps we can expect another Voyage? :O

oh...

somehow I thought fated sounded a tad HK pop melody-ly .... XD

ah I'm looking forward to it .. <3

AT07 and this single....making me very hyperish~
I can't wait to get AT07 DVD <3 (that's kinda far topic ne?)

I like his hair. hahaha. I'm a hair freak.

and kiseki89, I think the "kyoudai" in this situation means more "siblings". :)

Eh, Shawn Yue. I'd rather Carl Ng or Daniel Wu. :P

I think so too. When i wrote 'brothers' it felt weird to me....

yeah Daniel Wu! me and my sister thought Daniel Wu would suit, or Even Takeshi Keneshiro but he's not HK

I hope it's not another "Voyage"

Sure, i love that mini-movie... but i can't stand the PV.


i hope she means that the two PVs will have a connecting story (pains me to say, but like Mariah Careys' "it's like that" and then her "we belong together" i don't know any other good examples... maybe hilary duff's new clip when it's out ?)

Let's hope it's better than the Voyage mini movie. xD The first time I heard the news an actor was going to be in it, my mind just thought of Koda's Yume no uta. D: Hope it isn't like that either. XD

if it's a short film i totally need to see Ayu to be some kick ass Heroine! and the guy can just be her love, this is like a female version of james bond

My friend would go Woo I love Ayu for chooing Daniel Wu lol~
but Yeah ... I think Daniel Wu appears to "suit" better.... >w< but ah~

well...this is getting nice !
maybe it's a 10mins short film like ai otsuka's Kingyo Hanabi Short movie
or maybe glitter/fated is a tied up PV like Yume no Uta/Ftari de... (that would be nice)...whoa.........this is the 1st time ever for ayu usinf a male model in her PVs (Don't count Voyage PV coz for me it's somekind like Caps from Tsuki Ni Shizumu)....or yes..maybe it doesn't related to glitter/fated...but a summerish short LOVE story of what...or maybe...'Secret' Short Film

i dont think daniel wu would suit that much.. he is farrrrr tooooo tall n big comparing to ayu.. it wud look very lollita-ish lol

Oh yes, Takeshi Kaneshiro. <333

even people have to pick on this....we should ALL be glad Ayu is trying something different and not hate her PV because of some male actor...

what? no way i'm not oing to like the PV because of the male actor, i am soo looking forward to this

well for me i think taller guys would suit Ayu better, because she is so small :yes

haha...i mean im sure some people will feel that way...

Cool! I'm looking forward to this PV! :D

i think Ayu is gonna have a tough time lookin at tall guys, *neckache*

Cool :D I can`t wait to see it~

i wonder which pv she's filming for...

She´s definetely convinced to conquer the chinese market ¡

I think that this is Shawn Yue...

Image removed



He Looks like an ayu fan lol.

Oh I see
Arigatou for the info!! I can't wait to watch the PVS!! ^_^

oh wow!!! with shawn yiu!!!! the guy from initial D and internal affairs...i believe! i can't wait to see the PV XD lucky hk ppl!

A picture of them together: http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y12...kong_ayu-1.jpg

Cute :) I think they will be quite compatible for this video.

Those pics of Shawn Yue are kinda gross. I think he needs a Brazilian Wax :lech

^yeah, i was kinda grossed out too

i don't think that's Shawn Yue, if it is than he looks soo different

that is not Shawn Yue. That is WILBER PAN WEI BO from taiwan. ^^. I am not sure whether Ayu has taken photo with Shawn Yue or not but that's definitely not Shawn Yue.

You guys, we still don't know if this will be a PV or not. :<

PV or not, doesnt matter to me, all i know is that this is going to be intersting!

Hopefully it's got a plot. :o

No random dancing around Hong Kong. :p

ya i think will definitely have a plot, hope it's not toooo love-ish like kissing lol etc.

and yeah no more random dancing and riding on the back of the truck ;)

this is very interesting
