Ayumi Hamasaki/Trivia

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Executive Meddling: Avex, her record company, tried to force her to release a greatest hits album, which she felt was premature. They also played up the supposed rivalry between Ayu and Utada Hikaru, in the interest of sales, which Ayu denied vehemently. She was none too pleased with the entire situation, as evidenced by her iconic choice of album art for A BEST.
  • No Export for You:
    • Want to join the fanclub (Team Ayu)? If you don’t live in Japan and can’t afford a Tenso box, tough cookies for you.
    • And if you don’t have an international DVD player, buying her DVDs is relatively pointless.
