Interesting, never really thought of that. I agree some with Jer Sieu, her father left very early, but it just might have left tracks in her language. You've certainly learned the words "Mom" and "Dad" by the age of 2

She mentioned in an interview, I think I read it at masa's site, that her natural hair color is dark brown, not the usual intense black that is the usual color for all Japanese.

Myself, now I quite think it is an entire possibility that Ayu could be half-Japanese, half-American.

I have a small suspicion that she might be of mixed blood, but I don't think it's American. Uhh, I just dont. I'm like leaning 70% to that she is completely Japanese and 30% to that she might be of mixed blood.

I feel like it might also explain her hyper-affinity for all things American. Aditionally, if her father was American, it may also speak words about why, pre-RAINBOW-forgiving-my-angry-and-sad-past, Ayu prefered sticking to all-Japanese lyrics. But strangely, she had almost entirely English titles.

She does enjoy a lot of things related to America, but that is quite common in the overall Japanese community today. One difference is that she has got the possibility to live it out to the full, being able to go there etc. But you certainly are making good points

Of course, that would get entirely psychoanalytical, which nobody here can do without (a) having proper training and (b) personally having a revealing interview with Ayu. But I thought it would be fun and interesting to speculate.

, I thoroughly agree.
Very nicely written of you, good reading and it brings up a lot of thoughts.
I think that Ayu involving non-Japanese people in her PVs should be left out of this discussion, because I don't think she is in very much control over that aspect over her PVs... but ofcourse we cannot know.

Maybe Ayu wouldn't, but her contract with avex might say otherwise.
