I thought she DID stop being sexy? I mean c'mon. Wtf is anytime? Anything you'd call sexy up from BC is nothing compared to her sexiness back then.

Anytime is crap...
I hope Kingdom will be different from "anytime" (not that whole "OMG-look-I'm-so-kawaii" stuff)

I wish Kuu would go back to her sexy image. Like in "Trust you". It was sexy, but not trashy like "JUICY". That image worked on her best.

I completely agree! God I miss that image so much... It just really worked for her. This "cute Kuu" crap makes me sick.

i guess this aint the interview..but its a nice watch

^A couple pages back they talk about what she said.
It's an interesting interview, she looks gorgeous in that red dress, btw.
Thanks so much, freedreamer for finding it!

I just read the translation of the interview, damn it I'm late for everything, but after reading that my heart broke for her, some people make huge scarifices for the things they want, I feel so sorry for her.

Awh crap. It's old news, I was hoping for scandal.

[Kikaru]

^Really? I didn't know that about Hikki...which is interesting, considering that Hikki has pretty decent control over her career from the beginning.

[atashida]

Matsuura said when he listened to her voice he liked what he heard but her looks were of concern (basically), especially her weight.

There's more but I'm tired. ^_^

[AyUta]

This really makes me mad, my poor Kuu-chan :[
She didn't deserve that. Max is a jerk, I would have punched and beat the **** out of him xD Kuu-chan :[

[CHE.R.RY]

Max Matsuura is a ***** and Ayu + Koda should team up and give him a swirly :333
I feel for Koda :O

"- She only had her contract renewed because of the "FINAL FANTASY" single, which was a hit. But after that, her sales quickly dropped. She was just another singer, with anything special. So her staff (mostly a female agent who always goes to work in very short-shorts) had the idea of the "ero-kakoii" style.

- She was the first very-sexy local artist and her first single with her new image, LOVE & HONEY, was a big hit. From then on, she kept the image and her sales only went up.

- About the ero-kakoii image she said: "I don't like it, lots of people have a very negative view of me. But when I talked to AVEX president about that, he said I couldn't change my image. Maybe in the near future, when I can do what I want, I'll stop with this ultra-sexy style, but 'till this day comes, I'll keep being ero-kakoii""

Wow.. that's...

That's really sad. I feel so bad for Kuu.
