^ lol that's okay

so i have a question for you guys. what do you think about kumi being cute, IE koi no tsubomi PV, anytime PV, birthday eve PV. i showed those to my friend today and she's like "she's trying too hard to be cute, she's so fake"
do you prefer kumi being cute like that, does it annoy you, do you think it's fake?

I don't like her cuteness at all. Most of her cute songs are garbage. I don't see anything particularly cute about her doing that cute stuff. She looks ugly and seems to be tryin' to hard. =/ IMO, she just needs to stick to her sexy way.

I don't mean to sound so mean. lol It's just that she doesn't need to do stuff like that. She's tryin' to pull off the cute and the sexy and it's just a big mess. Like in my BUT ava, she's clearly cute without even trying to be cute but sexy. (Sorry but I really love her smile in that pic. ) That's how I like her to look or wuteva. I don't want anymore "anytime". She was just ugly cheesing to hard, and just irritating. I hope AVEX will finally keep her away from the cute crap.

Spoiler:
Did I make any sense in my post? XD

^I agree. I think she's the cutest when she's not trying to be cutesy.

I thought she had a decent balance in Someday PV. It was cute and happy, but it wasn't sugary and cutesy. Cutesy bothers me, like Wonderland PV or Twinkle PV. And tbh I don't think her voice is very suited for Cute songs. It was fine in Koi no Tsubomi and Anytime (although I have issues with that PV), but when she does the weird nasally thing to make it cuter, just no, Kuu, no. >_>

For the first time I didn't really liked TABOO preview, BUT now I've become addicted to it!
Hope the whole song will be even MORE better!
~crossing my fingers~

Oh, and thnx for the bigger covers, I wish she could remain with that TABOO hair style all post Kingdom era.

the more i listen to it, the more i like it! if you have itunes, go into the equalizer and put it on the spoken word preset, it sounds clearer and better!

also if you put on headphones REALLY loud it sounds better too... the preview is pretty lq but i still love it.

Sooooo those covers... They're alright. She's obviously giving a kick back to her older days WHICH I MISS TERRIBLY HAVE I MENTIONED THAT?!?!

Whatever **** she's wearing in that Sanspo or whatever thing looks like she grabbed from a few random racks in a thrift store and it just ain't workin'. :/ But wth is that other woman wearing?! Were they doing "who can wear the weirdest ****" contest?!

Her calendar for 2008 sucked. I know because I've had it on my wall since January. I missed out on Ayu's so I ordered Kuu's and I am none too happy about it, LOL. So I hope this year will be different. Well, it will because I won't be ordering Kuu's even if the pictures are better! I am looking forward to seeing some BETTER ones though. At least, they better be better...

And I agree with you Luv, about her "cuteness" crap. I effn HATE when she's trying so hard to be cute. HATE IT. She needs to be sexy and a little ****ty at times just to spice things up, but seriously, if she just did what she did during her "BUT" era, I'd be a happy Kuu-amper!

EDIT: HOLY ****! That youtube Black Cherry male voice thing?!?!! I AM LAUGHING SO HARD I'M GOING TO PEE MYSELF!!!

Does koi no tsubomi count as being too cute? The song it self was very cute and the PV didn't over kill with the cuteness IMO. If she did something like that again I would be fine ;3

The only video that I would say that was a "cute" kuu pv is Birthday Eve. I luffed it cause it was so girly and IMO, she wasn't really overracting with the cuteness or anything but just doing what a cheerful/happy girl would do on her birthday or wuteva. Other than WIND and Wonderland, Birthday Eve is my the only cute song I like. The other songs shoulda went to Ai. @_@

@taskin: Ikr! BUT was a perfect example of how I would like her to be for a while. I hope Taboo fulfills that wish srsly.
