Play the LOVE GAME or Shut Up in Namie's 53rd Thread!
 

Teehee, I just wanted to make it. I'll edit this in a second.
----

Recent Namie News:
-PAST < FUTURE ranked at #1 in 5 countries
-Collaboration with AI. Choreographed by Shawnette Heard.
-Current P < F sales are just over 522k.

^ I'm so impressed with P<F sales! more than 500k?
I think it'll break at least 3x Platinum (over 750k!!)
Go Namie! :D

New Namie thread! :D

I'll just be happy if it sells 600k. 750k is like :cry

I'm happy for PAST < FUTURE's sales as Namie really deserves it

it definitely has potential to overtake PLAY's sales in weeks to come

If it sells over 750k..dayum..that's crazy. :laugh

But it would be great.

from namiedee@JPM

Gosh, she looks smokin' hot, why no Movie director asks her for a play, she could be a movie star :(

^hhm, she looks really pretty but i don't think that the outfit is the best :/
i prefer the old coca-cola zero outfit...

here's a link to the wallpaper : http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_PqzWuEjz9I...ildhealth2.jpg

i couldn't insert the photo to the forum :(

I have already updated it in namie-amuro forum yesterday tho ^^

she remind me of this XD

http://anybody.megaobzor.com/frst/El...nt%20cover.jpg

^
Ya, now u just remind me of the too XD

P/s: Breathe No More by Evanescence on that OST alb is deeply beautiful

she looks amazing... But they could've done better on the outfit. D:

The top's not that bad. Its the pants and the knee high boots that ruin it. Namie totally rocks knee high boots, but they don't go with everything! XD

I love the top but the pants are ugly
Thank god they're not visible in the wallpapers lol.

Too bad they don't have the wallpapers in my size -_-


RikkuChii - I love you sig and icon! Showgirl = :heart

She looks nice, but those pants... eeek.

I like that outfit :D :D :D

I actually love the outfit. D:

Hideous outfit. But I do want a cardboard cutout of Namie xD

More Coca Cola Zero promo:

http://i302.photobucket.com/albums/n...ro/up59163.jpg http://i302.photobucket.com/albums/n...ro/up59164.jpg

:luv2

^She looks so short here! She normally looks much taller.

I used to think she was like 5'8" or so until I was told she was 5'2", my height. :laugh

I'd totally pay to have a cardboard poster shipped over here! lol. Imagine trying to steal one of those! :roflmao

I felt an ache somewhere special too. :no

This just in: Japanese super star Amuro Namie is actually genetically modified to never age. Shocking.

No seriously, despite what she's wearing in that ad, her body looks great.

I think she's still look tall, it was just the taken angel, the leg/the bottom of the pict seem smaller than the top, u can she the promo picts, the bottom must be bigger than the top

Namie is nominated at the SSTV music awards for best art direction music video w/ FAST CAR

I hope she wins! FAST CAR is one of her best PVs !

http://mva.jp/nomination/index.html

^yay :) i really hope that she wins.

I hope the wins too :yes I would be really happy.
Go Namie~~

The outfit is hideous but she looks pretty darn good, but seriously, Namie has the expressive range of a rock. How did she land those parts at the beginning of her career will remain a mystery.

^ You haven't seen many pics/videos of her have you?

xD I've never seen her act yet

^go watch "That's Cunning!" :D

lol i love that's cunning. such a cute movie :yes

Those coca cola promo pics looks so hot. <3

thanks! she looks so gorgeous in the cover... :)

Week 6: 9,716
Total: 522,343

Week 7: 10,133
Total: 532,476

Wow so ****ing kool. this is really show us that past sale < future sale.
Amazingly that next week the alb will oversale PLAY in just 8 week total sale.

yes, really nice sales indeed.
i really hope that she can hit the 600 k in a long run, but who knows?

Good going with the sales Namie! The sales look steady so long as they don't drop too far in a week. Yes I am one of those members who care about sales. :P The guy on your avatar is like :blove I need a blown up poster version! lol


I hope she wins as well for her music video, even if FAST CAR wasn't my favorite song. The video was at least a tad different from her usual videos with the styling.

I like the oufit :D.

&I hope she wins! That PV deserves it :yes

ah it's going to overtake PLAY's total sales soon

stoked !

xD

I have the pics for Mishelle's avater

I can give them to you xD

her sales are on fire :O Well Past < Future is her best album for me~

WOOFIN' scans have been posted on N.A forum u guys, check it If u haven't known yet =D
In other hand, great news for all :thud
posted by Amurocci@amuro-namie

New CM tomorrow! I wonder what the song is gonna be like :D I'm guessing something like WILD?

I never thought we would get new stuff this soon after the album


And the WOOFIN scans are so cool

*screams*

She's on a roll! I wonder what the new song will sound like? And a new CM?
Isn't she already doing another song with A.I. called Fake? Maybe its a new single?
So many questions! XD

Oh i hope a WILD II

^DO NOT get my hopes up! XD That is my #1 on PAST<FUTURE.

I'm happily shocked for new material! I can't wait!!

People on this thread are hyper. :) It's good because I'm too. <3 New releases Namieh~

Fake and a new cm wow she is on a roll, it's almost as if shes doing a kumi i.e. release something constantly. :p
Excited too!

OMG TMR?! so fasttt...I always though Namie would take her time. Its gonna be another good 2 years I think. but maybe Avex doesn't want to slow her down?

I wonder. She said she wanted to gain her popularity back without forcing herself upon the Japanese. Maybe she's seen she's gotten it back and now feels no need to lay low?

Aren't you guys a bit suspicious about that potential new song with Ai "Fake"?
I mean, maybe this rumour is fake... it's a weird title for a song for me. :shrug

But yay for a new cm with a new song, thatÄs good news! :yes

It's official News in their Offical website, and AI will release a new single in March

It is?
So I missed that info, thanks for telling me.^^

http://twitter.com/Spittn_Image
Gosh, both their twitter & their offical website has deleted the news on Jan 27th
It was there last week when I checked, maybe Japanese side don't want the news to be revealed so soon

Yeah the news was still on their official site just 2 days ago lol

And now people are saying that we won't get the new coke zero CM until feb 15th
What's going on lol.. I guess we will just have to wait and see

That's so nice :D I love Uh Uh,,,,, feat. AI

^ Ya me too
And I love your nikname, that's so kool

Let's not forget about this one: :D

SWEET 19 BLUES & Concentration 20 are materpieces :heart

Noo! That's like in 10 days! I can't wait that long... :(

I could just freeze myself like Cartman and go into suspended animation like he did when he waited for the Wii to come out. lol

:roflmao

Source: http://www.japantoday.com/category/s...grammy-tv-show

uh okay. I would have been just happy meeting Gaga and not given a **** about anyone else :shrug

but whatever floats her boat.

she had an interview with lady gaga?? did i read it too fast or she really did?

Woah she was invited to the Grammys? That's so cool lol
And she's a GaGa fan? =o awesome lol.

I wish she'd accept the offer, but I understand.. she doesn't want to do this kind of stuff anymore and I respect that

“It probably has to do with her relationship with comedian Atsushi of London Boots. Television shows are, in a sense, Atsushi’s territory and people will most likely start making comparisons in viewer ratings and income between the two. Amuro’s appearance on a special TV program with Lady Gaga would have only highlighted the ‘gap’ issue.”

I seriously hope this isn't true... kind of stupid :|

^that's what I'm hoping. Japanese and their gender issues crap. Get over it pls.

Seriously? That better not be the reason she turned down going to the Grammy's. Fans would have loved to see her. It's a fresh start (2010), her popularity is back up, and she hasn't appeared on TV in a while. Screw her BF's ego. Who cares if she makes more money than he does? Or if she's more popular than him--its Namie freakin Amuro! This may not bother some of you, but it irks me, especially if Atsushi is the cause. I mean, holding back and even missing the chance to meet an artist your a fan of because of a guy. :rolleyes It's not as if she's forcing herself on the public, maybe there's some other reason. :shrug I'm hoping there is.

Maybe it would have been better if Atsushi had denied their relationship. He seemed like a nice guy in the press conference, but if he's standing in the way of Namie's career. :no

Note to Namie: Atsushi<Career :D

I see it's funny to believe those reasons from that article, they weren't said by Namie after all.
Actually who cares for a meeting with GAGA, she needs to meet Madonna or someone BIGGER than her.

Lol I don't think it's fair to blame Atsushi @_@

Idk lol, what that reporter said is true, but not in this case I think. (wishful thinking? maybe..)
I think that Namie is in full control of her career, she hasn't been on t.v. for a loong time now. I'm sure that avex and VF are telling her all the time to promote her stuff on t.v. and stuff.. but she doesn't

So I doubt that he's the reason why she didn't go this time around.. I'm sure that if Namie wanted to go she would. But sadly she doesn't LoL

ME! I would love for her to meet up with GaGa :D GaGa is very.. very.. out there lol. And Namie is like the complete opposite.. I think it would have been interesting :laugh

Lol I'm sorry, I really don't hate GAGA, but for me Namie is like someone who has the most STYLISH outlook, she just can't be with GAGA:irked Gaga fashion make me sick(I like her vocal & music tho <3)

Namie Amuro is WAY more established than Lady Gaga. I really do not like Lady Gaga. If I were Namie I wouldn't wanna meet her. :P

^lol I'm with you on that!!


Anyways, I was thinking, wasn't when she was in Europe for that fashion thing she couldn't communicate in English that well. Perhaps that's why because she would feel uncomfortable?

maybe the Grammys sucks :rolleyes
language barrier may be a possibility..
I think she probably would have said that she just wants to live a happy life with her son~ and I would admire her for that :D

Gaga bashing makes me lol at times. :D It's hilarous.

But anyways, Namie is different. She doesn't need to go to every TV show that exists. She goes when it's necessary and I understand it. :) I actually like it that she refused somehow. I know I'm pretty strange. :D

:yes I agree with this.

But I mean, if Namie is happy then I'll respect her choice. :yes

awww! what a shame, namie has a valid point, but i do miss her having tv appearances especially when she started to establish her career she went on tv almost everyday according to wiki :( it's like shes saying she doesn't want to be famous anymore, of course she didn't state that or did it mean that but thats the impression i get from the article IMO...
Namie really deserves the attention for her talent.
BUt for her to do her duty as a mother is really special!

Me too, and it's always by people who don't understand anything about her :rofl


I kinda think it's odd that she rejected the offer...but she is a lot more private than other people...she could have left the munny part out of it though, and just said, "hey I'm spending time with my son, sorry I cant go." Or just like "I'm with my family."

I guess it would be like a hassle no? Having to fly to the US just to go and stuff...

She is more established than Gaga though...I don't really like the connotations that just because Gaga is American and the industry is bigger that it's somehow like it somehow undermines the Japanese artists and they should be so excited to meet them...I think Gaga would be excited to meet Namie more than Namie excited to meet Gaga lol

She probably does understand it was more about ratings for WOWOW though.

I agree. I doubt that flying to LA to attend the Grammy's (which she has no reason to go to) and then interview lady gaga is high on her list of priorities.

HOT!!!... :thud:luv2:mischief

Well, I guess I do "bash" her. I like her music, but I can't stand her personality. Another artist like that is Hikaru Utada.
I just do not understand why everyone is so taken with her. :no

Exactly! She wasn't going to win an award at the Grammy's was she? So there's really no point in going. :\

omgosh i swear i was thinking the cm would have a group of dancers! yahoo, its o going to be awesome! dancing with a large group is much fierce and entertaining.,
