I'm also one of those people who think: Why Paris Hilton? >_<
Can't stand this woman.

Congrats to Namie!
And I so wanna see the performance.
Hopefully a channel somewhere in Asia broadcasts it, cause I'm afraid it won't be showed in any western programs.

It was awesome seeing Namie amongst all those American and other world celebs, working the photographers.

And I thought it was interesting that Paris presented Namie with the award. It makes a cool contrast.

[AyUta]

I'm so happy for her!

[Rocky Raven]

Here is the preview of the performance, great sound so far, and Namie looks nervouse, but it's okay =D

And I do believe that after this performance, more westerners may take notice of her

[prussian blue]

namEE amuro? sorry Paris, you should learn how to pronounce other ppl's name correctly, especially in such award like this :/

[Polyrhythm]

OH GAWD. Nam-eeeee?

[Rocky Raven]

I think it's okay, she didn't mean to read it wrong tho =]
The more important thing was that Namie performed and accepted the award in front of alot of western artists <3

[rakeru]

Smooth job paris. That pronunciation must have used up all your eighteen remaining brain cells.

[Rocky Raven]
