Does she..or does she not..

[zeroshin888]

My question: does ayu smoke?!
if she doesn't then why is her voice so bad live?
i noe u guyz might think that this 'thread' is totally rhetorical n useless..but..i alwayz wonder..if she smokes or not..

[extepan]

i think she does. she is taken photos with a cigarette

[weijie22]

well
i hope not

[Larisa-chan]

yes, she does. I personally feel that it has taken a toll on her voice (in addition to the way she used to sing, I'm surprised she's still even able to sing at all)

yea..gackt is like that..his voice is sometime bad becuase of smoking...

Ayumi should stop..she will disappoint her fans if she cant sing anymore

[HanabiChick]

I agree, it has taken its toll on her voice. Look at how much she sings, that has to add to it, especially with all the tours she does every year.

if she smokes it might just be occasionally. like when she's celebrating or soemthing

[shinji1698]

And the truth doesnt lie in the public's opinions.
lol

[Qt Mashi]

[kristen]

there are several reasons that Ayu isn't as good singing live as she does with her studio performances, one being the fact that they edit a lot of the song before putting it on an album/single.

[Maximus]

Ayu's more of a casual smoker, meaning she probably smokes like, once or twoce just for the hell of it. I wouldnt consider her a SMOKER

[ayumi_pukka89]

oh yea...the papparazi amazingly HASN'T taken a pic of Ayu smoking...<--I find that astonishing if ayu smokes...
Which I don't think AT ALL does Ayu smoke. Not at all.

yea whatever

I have seen one picture with Ayu holding what looks like a cigarette. The quality of the picture is not good enough to say 100%, but I think it is a cigarette. On the other hand, I have several of globe's concert DVDs. In almost all of the off-shots KEIKO either has a cigarette in her mouth or has a pack of cigarettes nearby. I think if Ayu smokes it is very rarely or else she must have a tremendous amount of self-control to avoid being seen smoking in front of other people.

What if she's just eating pocky =.="
The way ur saying it ppl will think it's true. and they'll spread all de way to other places saying ayu do smoke... u know how things works with ppl who likes to add spice to things... future reporters lol. so be responsible to what u say even in forum. Don't say too sure unless ur confirm.

[JackieRos]

[Coelacanth]

Cigarettes no, ganja yes.

yeah, in the studio it's important to realize they synthesize her voice and edit it to hell. I like lives though. I think she sounds good when you hear her real voice; it's really refreshing to hear someone not lip-synching (although I won't deny that she might sometimes)

Back on topic, yes she does. I think it's a cultural thing over in Japan too, to smoke.

I don't think she does.
