A lot of Taiwanese shows including variety shows seem to love to namedrop Ayu / Bin Qi Bu. I always seem to hear it once in a while when watching them.

^hong kong dramas too, they always relate nail arts etc to ayu hahaha.

There's this Taiwanese variety show called University and they invite college students on the show and they all have a nickname~
Well this one guy's nickname is "Bin Qi Bu", but just with different characters than Ayu's~

NICE thread XD I must start paying attention more to movies and stuff to spot Ayu!!
But basically in Malaysia, you can find her in any CD shops XP

i got it in Pasar Atom, Surabaya, Indonesia!
there is a clothing store wearing ayu's face for a picture in his shop,
i want to cry, I really regret not taking pictures in front of it because it is very crowded!

actually there clothes shop in Pasar Atom there again wearing ayu's full body as a gradation in the glass of shop, but I can not find it! because at that time I traveled with my niece who is very naughty T______T *cry*

and one barber shop used ayu's face for his store front display
I was very surprised to see ayu's face accidentally while in the speeding car
and I quickly tried to make it in a photo

^I thought Ayu was well known in Indonesia? Ah,sorry, just my thought

Few years ago I happened to watch some document about Japan. They never mentioned it, but I definitely saw a Ayu poster on one of the huge buildings. It was from Tokyo, and the document dated back to 2002. I haven't had no luck trying to find that picture but she was promoting something though I know I have seen it before somewhere on the net. It wasn't a album though, it was a promotional poster for something.

Btw, document mentioned something about japanese people going to clubs to release the stress after work. I'm so sad that I don't even remember its name. >.>

I was watching the Black Eyed Pea's MV for "Just Can't Get Enough".
Starting from 0:16, I think there's a SWEET billboard on the right hand side with Ayu on it. Looks like Ayu to me.

"Just Can't Get Enough" Video

Sorry, don't know how to post videos.

Aha, I thought it would be her! Pretty cool how she's in there randomly.

Ayu was mentioned in Cyndi Wang/Mike He's latest drama, Love Keeps Going.

"Ayumi Hamasaki even asked him to be her composer!" LOL.

Mike He plays a stuck up well-known composer in this show. Taiwan really loves to namedrop Ayu.

YUKARI · #17 16th June 2011, 06:24 AM

nice thread!

In 2006 I found ayu at some random shop in Odaiba, Tokyo.

And also I found her in my hometown at a chinese market 6 or 7 years ago.

There was also some clothes or nail-art shop called "AYUMI" in my hometown. I remember they used one of her old pic as an advertisement. But unfortunately I didn't make a photo of it.

In México, at my school I saw this girl

That was a few months ago, and the last weekend I saw a chinesse girl with an ayu Shirt, but I didn't take a photo =/
