A couple of months ago, I posted a thread (
http://www.ahsforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=84766) announcing that Ayu was up for the title of "Best Pop Artist" in "Shojo Beat's" annual J-pop awards. Those of you in North America were allowed to vote and I know several of you did! The results for the contest are in June's issue which I received in the mail about a week or so ago. All of your voting must have helped because Ayu won by what I would consider to be a landslide!!!
Notice the other candidates' percentages? No even close to Ayu's!
So YAY for more recognition for Ayu!
