[Koda Kumi] It's TABOO to not talk about her in the 59th thread

[howtousesexy]

Same here. I don't really like that hair much to be honest. Outfit is nice except the scarf thingy she wears on her head.

[love in music]

it's so weird, it seems that kumis magazine photoshoots keep getting worse and worse. i remember when she actually used to do some pretty decent ones. where did that fierce kumi go

Did you ever stop and think that maybe she doesn't have a say about the photoshoot themes?

[ka♡ri.]

^Um - but her poses and facial expressions are all up to her. And she's been looking pretty ROUGH.

[Sundae]

^That's not neccesarily true either. Sometimes the photographer will tell them how to stand, what emotion to express and so on and so on.

I think she looks nice. I don't like the woofin' ones, but I like the others.

[do it again]

but it's also not necessarily false. no one knows what's going on, but her magazines recently have been for the most part have been really bad imo

woofin' is the only one i like recently, and like 2 of the pictures in fine.

Loving the Oricon pics, Kuu = <3

[mangoo_x3]

i love the magazine scans! ku looks really good in them. I don't think ku was copying namie I mean she is not the hair and makeup director for oricon. she simply is just there to take the photos.

ahnsohee: every post i saw from you so far seems to be negative about ku. just stop it. its annoying. if you don't like her simply just get out of this thread. saying she is showing off some skin to regain popularity, pshh b/s.

[Princess Sohee]

Umm - I love Koda Kumi! Dont tell me to leave her thread, I am a big fan but I dont like what shes doing recently.

[Zeke.]

^ So true. @mangoo_x3, everyone has the right to honest criticism. I really like TABOO, and Always is her best ballad since Yume no Uta (or the "Urban Kiss" version of Ai no Uta). Photoshoots (for the single) aren't terrible. But they aren't HOT either. Just kinda meek compared to what Ku is capable of. The PV was interesting. But with a higher budget value I think it could have gone the extra mile. Oh, and the latest mag scan is a mess. Namie's in the spotlight for the moment, but I never really found her attractive. There have been a few instances (in the 60s70s80s cover with the curly hair - the other one is atrocious..., the photoshoot for BEST FICTION, and in a few scenes in the SPEED STAR - when she has her hair up and by the pole) but not many.

Love KU! I'm rootin' for you (omg, please don't strike me down ayu ).

[charmmy]

ahnsohee has made nothing but really rude, negative comments. i'm suprised the mods have not said anything, i thought trolling wasn't allowed here

i really like the woofin girl pics! the scawaii.. not so much. taboo scans are very cute though

If people have rude things to say about Kuu... they can. But they should expect people to respond negatively.

[music_*]

Hmm. I'm not much of a Kumi fan (AYU ALL THE WAY!! ), but I think the Woofin' shots look great!
(I prefer this side to Koda Kumi rather than the boobs-and-skin one )
I think Koda Kumi wants to try a different image and prove to people that she can still sell music without the skin. (It's been discussed before, I believe)
But the last picture of SCawaii makes her look pregnant though. (Yes, I know it's the pose)

[freedreamer]

The Alternate version is sooooo disappointing!...fine i think i was expecting too much by hopeing for the full dance routine...

but it was just Kuu strutting and pushing her ****..in that toilet...
well..haiz

and she's really starting to look like Ayu in that calender

[TITANIC]

x->1->2->1->1 - Koda Kumi - 21,740 + 4,736 + 4,137 + 1,486 (x1.75) = 56,173

her sales like disaster

[KarenPang]

[LacusClyne]
