Is that really the nowadays conception of Ayu IN JAPAN?

Cause I in another board something like:

Quote:
Look at artists like Hamasaki Ayu, BoA, and Amuro Namie. Several years ago, they were gods. Nowadays, they're not huge at all anymore…and if you mention to your Japanese friends that you like them, they look at you like an American would look at you for listening to Fergie or Nickelback.
AKB will go out of fashion, but their sales will stay strong because they can't work otherwise. There will always be fans willing to pay money to see their favourite.
