All my Asia-born friends who know of Ayu, but aren't fans say "Oh, she's that popstar with all the plastic surgery, right?". Even if Ayu hasn't had anything done, she apparently still looks like she has. Some of my friends claim that "it so obvious. She just looks like she's had surgery!".

imo, Ayu's face does often look different. Just look at all her magazine covers. I think, though, that its mostly just the tons of editing and photoshop they use on her face, plus makeup.

The thing is that when she takes all the makeup off, she looks like a normal Japanese woman. Most people who have work done tend to look really... off when they have no makeup on.

Unfortunately, her large eyes in most photos taken for magazines/promotion are essentially the main reason why people think she has had so much surgery. The thing is... when would she have had time to do this? In her heyday, she had like no time to heal!

Well, I know at the end of the day she looks like a Japanese woman, what else would she look like? What I was trying to say was that from cover to cover she often looks like a different person. In fact, she never looks like anything but an Japanese woman to me, just a different Japanese woman each time. I was saying maybe her constantly different appearance was what led people to think she's had something done, but I just think that is was photoshop/editing. Although, I do think she's at least had fillers done, like on her lips. Those don't last, though.

I still don't get why her facial features are still under scrutiny. If you look at her earlier pictures, she's always had big eyes and a wide facial structure. After 15 years in the industry, it's obvious she used the lip plumping gloss or botox maybe. But makeup can do WONDERS for the face, even on YouTube people literally transform with the use of makeup, eyelashes, and contacts. The most "surgery" I seen her get was her teeth fixed (we all want that perfect smile ).

But seriously, like many of you said Ayu had one of the most demanding schedules during her career, especially during her peak. She was known to pass out from exhaustion, performing live sick, and even went as far to hold off IMPORTANT MEDICAL situations (ex. her ear) so she wouldn't have to cancel a performance. So please elaborate on how she could put off a few weeks for her nose or whatever plastic surgery that needs extensive healing time when she wouldn't put time off for her well being?

(But then again, I don't live her life but I just wanted to put my two cents in )
