I just found out...

Vinh · #1 20th March 2005, 08:06 PM

Namie Amuro... is... 28 years old?!

WHAT?

NANI?

SHE'S 28 YEARS OLD?!

Uhm, wow... I'm -still- shocked... I could've sworn, all this time (1 year about) I've thought that she was like.. 17... 20 -at most-...

She looks -so- young... -so- -so- -so- young!

Britney Spears and Chirstina Aguwhatever is both under 25... Namie looks very young when compared to them.

Did she get plastic surgery or something? I'm very shocked how she's -that- old but looks -10 years- younger!

She looks like she's 16, in her music video "Put Em Up" and she looks 18 ish in her newest music video "Want me, Want me". It looks like she's sorta BoA's age...

And a little tidbit I found interesting... she's 75% japanese and 25% italien... coolies!

Some people are just naturally young looking. Look at Ayu! She doesn't look her age at all! (At least to me...) I just think that anyone like that is pretty lucky. >D

As far as the 75% japanese/25% italian thing, I had no idea!!! :O That's awesome!

Thanks for the info, though! ^_^

I don't think she looks especially young to me at least , If I had to guess her age i would have said somewhere around 26-30 years

openingRUN · #4 20th March 2005, 09:23 PM

yeah she looks young... but considering that body feels exit (her first solo song) debuted in 1995, if she were 18 now, that would've made her 8 years old at the time of it's release.

Vinylfantasy · #5 20th March 2005, 09:32 PM

Plus she's had a kid, I don't think she would have wanted to get pregnant that early....

Aldonia · #6 20th March 2005, 09:38 PM

I don't think she looks that young.

She looked young back in her SUPER MONKEY's days and her first albumish.. o.o;

jerms · #7 20th March 2005, 10:01 PM

doesn't she have a kid too? lol. yes she is a very hot 28 year old.

Vinh · #8 20th March 2005, 11:40 PM

SHE HAS A KID?

WHAT?

Am I the only one that thinks she looks terribly young?

She seriously looks 18-ish to me!

*Foams at mouth*

PsyGen · #9 21st March 2005, 12:04 AM

Vinneh you're not the only one here

Since you brought it up I didn't know Namie was that age either. She still looks great

And she has a kid?? LOL didn't know that either

PrismaticTears · #10 21st March 2005, 12:06 AM

Big foreheads is something usually attributed to youth as are high cheekbones (check out baby pictures and study their facial structure), she has both so yeah. She definitely doesn't look THAT young though

URANUS · #11 21st March 2005, 01:28 AM

I have to agree that Namie doesn't look her age. She looks like somewhere around 20 years old but definitely not 28.

P.S. I love her latest single WANT ME WANT ME. It totally rock.

BanFan · #12 21st March 2005, 01:35 AM

I was shocked when I found out aiko was almost 30 (29), but I can sometimes tell she's a little older, with some angles of her face, but Namie looks very young for her age, though I knew she was that old for quite some time.

Delirium-Zer0 · #13 21st March 2005, 01:44 AM

Isn't she 75% okinawan, not japanese? (technically they're a different race of people.) I never thought she looked any younger than 28, but then i'm like the only person on earth who seems to realize that anything under 35 means "young". why do people think that 25 means old, especially in japan? human life expectancy is like 85 years or something like that.

You wanna see someone who looks young for their age? Koshi Inaba. 40-ish. Looks great.

thejadedangel · #14 21st March 2005, 02:40 AM

Yea, she's okinawan, not japanese. that's why people started tanning their bodies like the okinawans back(and still now) when she's popular.

I don't know. I don't think she looks that young at all. At the most, I would think that she was 25

Japanese people are often mistaken for looking younger than they actually are

I get 14-15 years old all the time (I'm 17) .. but anyways, yeah. If Namie was 18, she would of made her debut at a pretty young age

Namie is divorced also, ya know

Koshi Inaba

**Cyria** · #16 21st March 2005, 08:21 AM

Namie does look much younger than she is, I think.

kournikova · #17 21st March 2005, 08:52 AM

thats true... namie is 28 ^^

extepan · #18 21st March 2005, 04:22 PM

she has been singing for 10 years, so it is not that surprising that she is 28

I ain't Japnese but I'm nearly nineteen and one of the last times I went out to eat was asked if I wanted a kids menu.

Like, do I seriously look under 12??

Actually I think Ayu looks older than her age. Her make up especially makes her look a lot older.
