Arena Tour 2007 and Moulin Rouge!

[naxxo.licious™]

This is so random. I was talking with zoomzoom about Moulin Rouge and BOOM! we suddenly saw some similarities between ayu's AT 07 evolution's outfit, and Nicole Kidman's one.

Ayu:








Nicole:




So what do u think about it? We think it can't be just a coincidence

I saw that too! The swings are nearly exactly the same. I also think the white outfit Ayu wears at the end is a bit like the pink outfit Nicole Kidman wears in the movie following the swing outfit.

[ownsarai]

Hmm...maybe she liked the style and ran with it? I actually like Ayu's outfit better, it's a little more...fluffy! xD <= I don't know how else to describe it really...^^;

[zoomzoom]

The thing that jumped to my eyes was the swing. I never saw the movie, so when I saw a clip of it with Nicole Kidman on a swing, I instantly recognized the swing as identical to ayu's in her opening performance. It's a pretty unique swing, I didn't even think twice about it. From there I noticed their outfits looked pretty similar, with the hat and gold and all.

[Hanabi_surreal]

yep that's true... good observation guys reminds me like Moulin Rouge movie...

It will be more impresive Ayu moves like Nicole XD "the french are glad to die for love...*

I think is a concidence... dunno.. I like it very much that performance... so if is a copy or not.. is OK... IS MY FAVORITE!!! ^_____^

[ayumixfan]

LOL omgosh guilty XD! they look SO similar XD Who knows if its a coincedence or not *shrugs* XD At least tahts what I think. W.e. Ayu looks better than nicole kidman in it neways =P! IMO at least XD

[AyUmIXx]

woww...
at least the swinging on AT07 is really similar..
woww..nice!!!
thanks for pointing it out

yea, maybe ayu got the inspiration from moulin rouge~

[[taskin.ayu]]

Well IMO most of the concert was Moulin Rouge inspired. The swing, the set, the costumes. The end of the concert is also Moulin Rouge inspired with the hearts in the back and the feathered costumes.

Look here:


People shouldn't take it as copying, it's really just inspiration from the Moulin Rouge.

[xiaou-xijiang]

I would never have connected it that way. I see it now though.

[Melrose]

Looks like she copied but then again who cares. XD She should copy medieval movies like King Arthur for AT09. <33

[*Petit*]

IT's pretty obious and it makes a pretty stage. Fit for ayu.

[se7entheaven]

well
paris hilton Can Can adv also has that kind of outfit ayu's wearing in AT07 Boys & Girls and the Heart Shape lights in the BG

[alternarist]

[TITANIC]

I also noticed the inspiration of musicals in Arena Tour 2005 and BEST of CDL

The Phantom of the Opera - HAPPY ENDING AT2005





The Phantom of the Opera - M Asia Tour 2007 (in the movie the ballet holds the same flower things)





Moulin Rouge - INSPIRE AT2005









Moulin Rouge - GAME AT2005, AUDIENCE Asia Tour 2007









Moulin Rouge - 1 LOVE Asia Tour 2007





Moulin Rouge - evolution Arena Tour 2002 (BEST of CDL)








I have to say... I LOVE when she does this kind of things.

1) This isnt the 1st time she uses swings in her concert. refer to other concerts like arena tour 2002 and A museum.

2) ur thinking too much if u've watch all of ayu's concert u can see that she's been improving on her concerts costumes (sort of upgrading the costumes)

It's not that it's a swing, it's that it looks like ayu went out and bought the one used in Moulin Rouge They're identical. Then combined with the gold outfit and top hat, it's pretty similar.

You can't deny the INSPIRE outfit.. I mean, look at the head piece! It's the same.

Why do ayu fans get so defensive..?

U sure the swings and head piece is identical? did ayu get inspired from Chun-li in arena Tour 2001?... nvm don't wana talk more about this.
Well if there's ppl who think the concert is inspired from Moulin Rouge, there's gotta b ppl who thinks otherwise. And that's me...

I'm not being defensive. Defensive with what? I would be happy if ayu gets inspired from the movie. As u guys said, it's inspiration not copy. So why would we be defensive against inspirations? Inspirations is positive thinking. right?

We get defensive because we're her fans and we try our best to outright any unjust did to her. =)

And why are you so against her? Insisting tt she copied? XD

[AyuGAME]

i think that kind of theme is so general...so we can't say she copy it...
i just feel so tired with this kind of discussion...
