[Pic] 2009 Calendar Cover OUT!

[jbrat2219]

After looking at it some more, I think it looks decent. It's just one of those pictures that takes a few looks to get my appreciation.

[AyUta]

um, yes, i saw it. i know she has them, it's just that all her shoots have been really repetitive. one magazine shoot featuring a white shirt and blue jeans complete with a diva-ish face isnt what i was really talking about. and i dont believe an artist loses their ability to connect with their fans just because their peak is over. she's nearing 30 yes, but so are many of her fans, and im sure many of her fans dont wear blinged out dresses on a regular basis. i understand she's growing up, but thats like saying people in their 30's+ don't wear casual clothing, which is rediculous.

sorry that i prefer a more casual ayu. but i feel like when she dressed up in the past, it was way more glamorous.

oh, and i didnt say i want to see her in jeans every single shoot. but she could switch it up a bit, especially since we've seen so many dresses.

And what's up with the "ZOMG!! SHE'S WEARING THE SAME DRESS!?!!?!11" Is it really that big a deal? I definitely think this calendar will be better than the 2008 one.

I find nothing really wrong with the cover but the expression is now alan's okay. (j/k) But her expression does remind me of alan. The other thing I hate about the cover is the font. It's simply fugly.

Well, Ayu sorta puts herself out there as "a person who never wears the same thing twice". =/ So I and along with others are kinda surprise that she's wearing the same type of dress. The 08 calendar was okay. I just hated the color theme tho. The cover was cute and the glasses are luff. lol

>Well, Ayu sorta puts herself out there as "a person who never wears the same thing twice".

What are you basing this on?

[Cyria]

I'm not really fond of her expression, I hope I like the inside pics more.

Inori, You can tell from how she presents herself plus her fashion and image. Didn't she say that she carries are like 50 bags or something of that sort when she's traveling as well? It's more than make-up and her dogs that she's prolly carrying with her.

Generally, the photographer dictates the poses in Ayu's case. Ayu is not a professional model. imo, most, if not all of the shots we see are like.. poses that were told to Ayu during the shoot.

I think it's awful.
imo this is one of the worst covers she's done for a calendar =/
Text is crap too.
How can that have been the best choice of picture for the front
Not happy.

I like the cover, but I don't know which calendar I should get for 2009

[Deep snow]

better than i'd expect

Maybe mu-mo is pulling a trap?I don't know...

[waterballoon]

I think the photographer has probably lied and deluded Ayu into thinking that this diva-look is purrfect on her because he doesn't want to get fired and thus lose tons of $$$.

I liked more last year's cover lol It's nice but the dress was already used and everything :/ thanx for the pic!

[ayu_fantasy]

Overall, I love it!


I'm kinda disappointed and tired by comments people give here.

Comments like:

"I hate her facial expression"

"What's with the dress"

"Horrible angle"

"Weird teeth"

"Quite uninspiring"

"It seems too photoshopped"

"Close that mouth!"

"Aww disappointing"

"Uhm... Ok"

"Nothing new"

"SHE'S WEARING THE SAME DRESS??!"

"I think its awful"

"One of the worst covers"

"Hate the hair"

"Hate the lighting"

"Recycled pose"

"she could do this"

"she could do that..."


and many, many more.




People, just because Ayu produced too many perfect stuff for all of you in the past few years doesn't mean that one less perfect snap earns all your petty complaints for perfection.


Please be reasonable. No one is perfect. You might as well give constructive comments or nothing at all.


Sorry, no offences.
