Hamasaki Ayumi leaves Paris today

I came back to the luxurious hotel with all the expensive cars always parked in front of the entrance. Just to meet with the fans about 9:30. Time was not planned but I knew they would be there.

A new lady fan was here. She reported that yesterday was a bit messy since she always directs operations for fans but she could not make it yesterday. That may explain why I found Ayumi's reaction a bit cold : she may have been a bit frightened or overwhelmed. This lady fan said that "Ayu" is always looking at the support fans give her for an autograph and she does look at people.

Ayumi came to Paris last weekend in order to shoot a video. The fan director reported that they even managed to find Ayumi & her crew on Thursday or Friday near the Eiffel Tower and they managed to attend some of the shooting.

So touching to see so many young women from all over France who took the train "just to have the chance to see her". Some even mentioned they do not want to disturb...
Look at the lyrics printed and kept in a special carton folder next to the mobile phone with full sound... 4 of them were singing Ayumi's new song!
Let me show you the devotion of one of her female fan : she got a Japanese mobile (that works in Europe, i.e. with SIM card) and customized it.No need to mention that all fans are different : model-like twins, regular French girls, 2 men, and a cute geek with her girl friend.

I'll get back there for the "Aurevoir". Before flying to Japan to attend this summer's A Nation '08?
