Take a look at the Japanese pop music charts almost any
day of the year and you’re guaranteed to find at least one if not
more Hamasaki Ayumi singles and/or albums in the Top 20. She’s
one of a handful of young female superstars dominating the world of
J-Pop with a string of smash hits. Fans snap up copies of every release
as soon as it hits store shelves--from her debut single "Poker
Face" to her most recent video release "Vogue Far away Seasons"
everything she touches is gold.
Like other Japanese divas, Hamasaki achieved success as an entertainer
at a young age. Though still not 22 years old yet, she has already released
16 best-selling singles and 7 smash hit albums, as well as accompanying
posters, photo albums, and videos. Capitalizing on the growing popularity
of Japanese pop culture throughout Asia and around the world, Hamasaki
has made her name a familiar one to non-Japanese as well.
Though insisting that she was shy and insecure as a girl, Hamasaki loves
the spotlight these days, appearing frequently on music programs like
Hey! Hey! Hey! Music Champ to perform her latest hits and banter with
the hosts and other performers. Every time she takes the stage sporting
a new haircut and fashion style, the young girls and women in the audience
shriek Kawaii! (cute!) as they take mental notes on how to spruce up their
wardrobe with trademark Hamasaki items, like her cowboy hat.
Hamasaki is often compared with Suzuki Ami, one of Japan’s other
current pop darlings. Both women came to the forefront of the J-Pop scene
at about the time, are roughly the same age, and sing the same type of
songs. The Japanese media has made much of the similarities, hinting that
there is a rivalry between the two women, but Hamasaki brushes aside such
speculation, saying that the two of them are, in fact, friends.
Hamasaki’s star is still rising so we can expect to see more singles,
albums, and videos from her in the years to come. We will even see her
flex her acting muscles in future TV dramas and movies. Stay tuned as
the best is yet to come!
