Yeah, I think it was for 2013 cuz as I recall it sounded rather sarcastic & tongue-in-cheek to me.
Even if she did say she wanted to "live more scandalously" before 2012, it wouldn't shock me that she'd have actual scandals based on actual things she DID rather than staged relationships - if you say "I want to live more scandalously" it says to me you'd want to seize the day & take more risks. Well, romantic relationships that you reveal to everyone DO certainly fall under that category, don't they?
And Japan doesn't typically stage relationships unless they make the singer look good - these ones really didn't. These types of relationships are NOT the kind of thing that would boost sales, they're the type of thing that makes sales plummet among the japanese music buying public. Things don't work QUITE the same there as they do in the west. The west would have eaten ayu's love troubles up - they were alienating to fans in Japan.
