[tabloid][2003] Amuro called Ayu "make-up monster" - Page 2

I don't believe this crap.

And why did they called Namie 'monkey'? And Ayu 'make-up monster'? Oh please, her make-up is never that bad. She always looks natural except for INSPIRE PV, and the MY STORY cover. She only had red lipstick, big deal.

Instead, Focus and Shukan Shincho have shown time and time again that they confuse the freedom of the press with the freedom to act irresponsibly. From 1985 to 1995, for instance, they have been defendants in 21 lawsuits, legal complaints and court-awarded fines for everything from misrepresentation of facts to outright fabrications. Not that this comes as a great surprise: In one of the more infamous confessions by a senior Shinchosha executive, Juichi Saito, currently an editorial adviser and former Shukan Shincho chief editor, told a Japanese newspaper in 1995 that "there is no truth or justice" in the unsavory art of tabloid writing.

ah, saw this before. If Ayu isn't such a great make-up "monster" nobody will like her..

Why do people insist on bringing back old tabloid trash?

RAISKA · #25 2nd June 2005, 12:01 PM

hahaha! War of goddesses, they say? I won't tell, that Namie is a goddess. i don't like her at all, and her appearance, in my opinion, is awful. Well, she called Ayu "make-up monster" and what? Better to be a "make-up" monster, than a monkey.

Namie started out with a group called the SUPER MONEYS, Namie's the singer and the monkeys're the dancers.

They have some sort of a itch I guess.

People shouldn't always believe tabloids.

Tabloids are like soap operas. No matter where you go in the world, they never change.

Sorry to break this to you, but this may come as a huge shock.

Nothing, if ever, no matter how popular or pretty or smart or cool a person is, justifies them being a jerk and calling other people names. Golden Rule here people. Even though Ayu is "worth more" then the average person, doesn't mean she, or anyone, is allowed to be immature and stoop down to a lower level.

"She's sold 5.32 million copies of her CD and draws 70,000 people a concert. She was a resounding success in a Beijing show last year and is referred to as the diva of Asia. About the only person who can rival her for CD sales is Hikaru Utada," the writer tells Shukan Shincho.

Hamasaki had something of a faux pas last year when she threw a tantrum in front of the Thai queen, but that hasn't halted her momentum in any way.

"Avex (Hamasaki's record label) only survives on the stock exchange thanks to Hamasaki. She accounts for 30 percent of the company's income.[/URL]

OMG!! I LOVE THIS NEWS SO MUCH!! ESPECIALLY THESE QUOTES!!

But this shocked me!! I dont like her music but I'm so sad that this happens nowadays...

"Following her peak years, Amuro was beset by tragedy as her mother was brutally murdered and her marriage broke apart. She's trying desperately to get her career back on track now, but the outlook isn't good."

Hope Namie gets well soon.. I LOVE AYU!!

Not to sound snippy, but would you mind not resurrecting all the old posts on the board? I usually search by new articles and read them as I see them, I don't like flipping through 2 pages of actual new content/discussion and then finding the rest of the pages are all thread necromancy.

Mad_Cactuar · #37 30th August 2005, 09:17 AM

^.^ well, me too but i didnt check the date cos i was engrossed in the article! sorry, hehe.. Its not THAT old..

Mad_Cactuar · #38 30th August 2005, 09:19 AM

necromancy.. nice word usage ^.^ I thought I was the only one who understood the meaning.. wont do it again..

Yukitora · #39 30th August 2005, 10:09 AM

Sorry to reply to this thread but:

Amuro is a (super) monkey
and Ayu is a makeup (monster)

But yeah, they're supposed to be insults, but thats just how humans function. Unpeacefully. And yeah, i've seen this before...

Qt Mashi · #40 30th August 2005, 11:53 AM

i dont think it's real though just tabloids...
