Ayumi's reputation in Japan

[jyujiw]

Japan has a strong closed mind when we're talking about ages.
A 30 years woman it's OLD to them... it's a little bit crazy for our general standards, but, well, we're talking about a culture.
Ayumi has reached her peak, declined fame, but has quite a influence in the music even nowadays. Her past and achievements can't be ignored, but at the same time, it's this past which avert new fans...
Quite a complicated situation I think.

It's true, culture is different. If you are 30 and unmarried, you may as well give up.
