  • Yu Aoi and Kirin CMs

    Multiple Yu Aoi post day!
    ending the month with 85 posts!

    As you know (most people anyway) Yu pimps Kirin beverages. She’s been feature in a full series of Kirin Tea… “Afternoon Black Tea” and other tea-related beverages. One of the commercials that was released this past October was this cute one with the dancing xD

    on Tudou.

    Dancing and smiling Yu to make your day a happy one. xD

    Bunch of other Kirin CMs below the break

    To be honest, I do drink tea all day. Not Kirin, not sold locally. xD

    Playlist is here.


  • Yu Aoi and MVs

    I ran into this video, which is a fan-made video without label that made me think it was almost a real video, if I hadn’t seen the original video from which the Yu Aoi footage comes from. LOL

    Ikimono-gakari‘s Sakura ~2007 version~ (single was released in 2006).

  • Yu Aoi for Vogue Nippon Interview

    Once again, no subs ;P
    But you can still enjoy the interview.

    If I ever meet Yu-chan, I want her to introduce herself.
    It’s so adorable every single time she introduces herself, something about the way she says her name with the combination of “minna-san” xD “minna-san, Aoi Yu desu~” xD


  • Playing the role of Yu’s Parents…

    You know when you’re young, and you’re with your friends hanging out when your parents arrive. They try to be cool, and talk to your friends about the time when you were a kid… about the most embarrassing or bizarre things~ Or they feel it’s appropriate to tell your friends about when you were a baby, and feel the need to tell the story graphically, so they decide to take the family photo album out and show them photos of yourself probably naked and being all baby cute? xD

    Well, we’re playing that role today, since we seem (at least I) to know nothing about Yu’s parents and overall family — though I’m pretty sure she has an older brother.

    Anyway, Acerk found a video of Yu playing games.

    I’m not sure what it is, if it’s a game show or what… but I’ve been suspecting is a clip of her work as an OHA Girl for Tokyo TV’s OHA SUTA… but that’s just a theory of mine. It just reminded me of those clips I saw of the show in search for one of Yu.


  • Vogue Nippon: Women of the Year 2009 + Yu Aoi!!

    Was this announced before? Because I remember talking about Yu with Vogue for some November issue.

    From left to right – Ai Tominaga, Yu Aoi, Yukie Nakama, Shinobu Otake, Yayoi Kusama, Rie Miyazawa, Aya Ueto, Yukiko Motoya, and Ai Sugiyama

    I’m not sure if it’s a women of the year, or the decade though xD
    but I’m so happy for Yu (though not sure, since she didn’t have many projects out this year), and Happy Yu is so cute because you can’t help but smile when you see that smile.

  • That Was It for This Is It

    I’m an MJ fan, I really am. I bought my copy of HIStory when I was around 10 — the first ever album I received as a birthday gift from my parents — and I’ve been fascinated as a kid since I saw him vanished as golden sand on the Remember the Time music video.

    I was a bit hesitant to watch this because I knew tickets had been on pre-sale for a month, and I’m not the type to compete for tickets. After all, they did advertise “for two weeks only.” I checked schedule online only to find the 11pm shows listed ONLY, so I was pissed. I thought that they were not showing this for two weeks only, but also showing it on midnight shows ONLY, so I went to the theater to watch District 9 instead… to find out there were other times for This Is It — so I watched both.

  • Yu Aoi for So-En Magazine

    I finally found big scans of that So-En photoshoot Yu did for this month’s issue.

    Did Yu really cut her hair? Because her hair is really tucked away otherwise~~~ I love Yu wearing glasses, and I love Yu with that hat. Love her hair on the cover, and that puffy hair is hilarious. xD

    I had to make a wallpaper of that photo with the hat. xD

    Yu Aoi - So-En Wallpaper - 1680x1050

    In case you haven’t gotten the hi-res,
    check it out over at Yurikofans.cn from Hudie.com
    Now, if only there were non-watermarked scans…


  • Crowd Lu – OH YEAH!

    If we talk about big dorks, Crowd Lu is a huge dork, and his new album comes out next month, the first single Oh Yeah is out. SO FUN. So catchy. I hope the whole album is like this, so I feel like getting it.

    Crowd Lu’s first album 100 Ways for Living was a huge hit.


  • Han Hong Returns!

    Say what?

    She’s got a new album! And it was released not long ago, and a lot of famous people showed their support for the release!! Including Andy Lau, Eason Chan, Nic Tse and Stefanie Sun~~~

    This is the video for the first single, Gui Lai (Return)

    and I demand a collaboration with Celtic Woman, Meav or Sarah Brightman~~~ LOL
