Himeka Shirosaki: a question point
 

Hello everybody..

since a few days ago I never heard about this himegyaru, Himeka Shirosaki, but thanks to an user who asked about her, I discovered her blog
http://blog.himeka-shirosaki.com/

In fact, she's Ayu impersonator: she wears like Ayu, have the same haistyles, the same huge eyes (though Himeka's ones scare me a lot) and she acts like Ayu performing her songs (for ex. enjoy her version of JEWEL on youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LtvmRoAZRBc

In the end..what do you think about her? Do you think it’s positive for Ayu to have such an imitator? Please set your thought free.

is she famous or something? I just wondered coz of there are alot of ppl taking her photo.

Wow...Umm, she looks like Ayu but only when you squint your eyes and play pretend. ^_^' But she's definitely got Ayu's fashion sense down pack.

I love Himeka's blog, I read it all the time. Her eyes are very scary and she doesn't look like Ayu, but she's good with the fashion side of Ayu and I think she's rather interesting.

she's cute and pretty but sometimes her big eyes scare me as well..
it looks like she has tried to make her eyes BIGGER~
and looks fake?

really fake to me..i guess she uses coloured lenses too and this may make her glance look bigger and scary..they look someway insane though --> :tired

yea looks really fake and weird~
it's like she uses something to push the eyes bigger? haha lol :D

oh, she's just ones of those Ayu-obsessed himegyaru or just gyaru
every normal gal is obsessed with Ayuchan

though, she's a good impersonator ;)
but she's not rather attractive :D

guys, just read modern mags like Popteen. in recent May issue they dedicated 4 pages to a girl which wants to be like Ayu in 2000

lol, well, I think most himegyaru look like that, so technically they're not truly imitating Ayu or anything. Although the himegyaru look is often credited to be influenced by Ayu, I think that's only to a certain extent, and even though their style is big eyes with false eyelashes and big-eye contact lenses, it doesn't mean they always strive to look like Ayu. Because big eyes is pretty normal for girls to strive for, especially in gyaru fashion. For example, one of their trends is big princess hair, and Ayu doesn't do big hair very often. :P (Although she has done it in certain ocassions, but not to the same degree as regular himegyaru.)

I don't know if you're referring to Nana-chan in Popteen, but I don't think her look is really that influenced by Ayu, because honestly, they all influence each other and the inspiration doesn't always come from Ayu! This is just the gyaru look!

She looks so old...no impersonator should be so much older than the impersonated person xD Also her eyes are scary

Though it's not common, i think it's not something new for the japanese. They even have a show devoted to it... Personally, i feel Himeka should walk the talk and support ayu in sales haha... Impersonating ayu is a hobby i suppose. Don't suppose it's unhealthy or anything like that unless it becomes an obsession or delusion.

Himeka isn't an Ayu impersonator as far as I know. Well, she wasn't as I was following her 2006~2007.
She is a well known japanese model, former model of Ageha magazine.
She's a huge fan of Ayu, she already was at her time at Ageha.
I was so surprised when I saw the thread about her and her blog at AHS not long ago and somebody saying she impersonates Ayu. I laughed so hard! XD
It's possible that she's now an impersonator, but I highly doubt that's official.
I think she's just a big fan and gets her inspiration from Ayu.

You can only call somebody an impersonator when he or she dress and act like the idol to be recognized as this idol in public.
So Himeka really isn't one, she's still her own character.

Exactly! Just because someone's blonde and has big eyes from makeup doesn't mean she's automatically impersonating Ayu. It just doesn't look like it at all that she's impersonating Ayu in the current photos of her blog. She just looks like a regular hime-kei gyaru to me. She may have imperonsated Ayu in certain ocassions before, but it doesn't mean she does it all the time or anything.

oh yeah I remember hearing about her and seeing her blog

she looks a bit like ayu when you don't look closely to her pictures.
it's her hime gyaru make-up that doesn't work (her eyes)
because ayu's eyes are not like that

There is another thread about this on the forum already.

aha when she began singing they were like X_X she does sound like ayu

I WANT THAT NECKLACE.

I think if she wants fame she should create her own identity instead of stealing/imitating someone elses. Especially if that someone is our dearest Ayu.

wow, if the video was HQ, then MAYBE i can tell her & ayu apart ;)
and himeka shuda did more ayu-style vibrato *__*
