put it this way..Namie is talented in dancing and Ayu really can't dance but she did improved but it doesn't mean Ayu is still better a dancer then Namie
and on the other hand Ayu is talented and well known for her writing lyrics and Namie..i duno if she ever did as i'm not tad a big fan of her
if Namie really do debut here it will be kinda funny...in the US..we got Hikki vs Namie
then in Japan we got Hikki vs Ayu
why not make ayu debut in US first
but ayu english is...x.X
