I think you're on to something there! I think she's always been sorta insecure about how much of herself she shows to the public (not just physically, but personally & emotionally as well), which would corroborate both ideas - that the sexiness is basically a show of self-acceptance, so she's okay with being vulnerable in front of the cameras.
Looking back at this thread, I never really realized how consistent her use of TVs has been. It's similar to her use of clowns over the years, I think, as sort of representative of her career... where clowns are more a symbol for the industry & its executives, the TVs are more a symbol of the Hamasaki Ayumi product & image.
