Utada Hikaru never had a Myspace profile in the first place, ItaloSuave. Those are just "fake" profiles.

Utada has shut down her MySpace webpages overnight, and "Song has been deleted by the Artist" in every instance. Is ItaloSuave no longer Hikki's friend? What could I have done wrong, I wonder. All I did was post a Polysics music video. I think that band used to be connected to Utada Hikaru. I have been promoting them both for 1/2 year now, because I like them both so much. Both have acquired new recognition and American success, I think. What's going on, I wonder, with Utada of late?

er, no digging up of older threads, ok?

I'd marry Utada. x]

but do u all tink dat she wanna let tis happen?

Well, and here we are at a website devoted entirely to one celebrity. There are websites in America that are nothing but celeb news, and our newspapers and magazines are heading that way, big trend. All in all, I think it is harmless, because Television and Magazines are not necessarily the best way to inform yourself as a Citizen, anyway. Just know that "Bread and Circuses" in the Roman fashion, is a recipe for "Decline and Fall" as in the book by that title. Specific problems people have as individuals are bigger nowadays, because families and community values have been tremendously diminished, which strengthens elites, corporations and governments, but which weakens humanity and individuals. You have to try to find connections, networks, and helpful people. Also, "Ask, and you shall receive." If you do not share with people your needs, how can they know to help you? As Mencius the Chinese philosopher said, "People are basically good." So try not to "soldier through" your problems completely alone and without assistance. It could take the form of finding folks with similar concerns, and just talking out loud about it. Knowing you are not alone in the problems you cope with. That helps. Celebs just make for icing on the cake of Life. Human condition is shared by everyone, even and especially Celebs. Remember, "It is not what happens to you, but what you do about it, that counts!" It's true, if you think about it. Celebs can serves as occasional role models in this regard. Like Hikki, to stay on topic (great "save", eh?)

What I am saying is that the celebrity life in America is ridiculous.

You know what I am tired of? Hearing about celebrities on the news all the time when people don't give a crap. It's bad out there...

Whoa, "Dirty"? We in USA have what you might call a "low" culture, simply because we are a continental nation, like China, with many sectors and territories and people. Actually, China is more homogenous than us, because they are mostly Han Chinese ethnicity, I think. Anyway, Japan in my Cosmology here, is "high" culture, in part because the population, while diverse, is also culturally homogenous, not heterogenous like America. England is another example of "high" culture. Maybe it is the Royalty that keeps things ordered. Don't think "Dirty" think "Creative" because making entertainment and laws and sausage can be "dirty" business if you watch too closely. I think utada's style comes in part from her New York City origins, which makes her a diversified, open personality, at least on-stage. Urbane is the word, maybe. I'm certain she struggles like an American in the Workshop of her Creativity, but all you see is the Finished Product. Hands on workshops are not dirty, they are creative places where the juices flow. I will admit that America has changed a lot in the last 30 to 40 years, maybe not all for the best. Big changes last six years, too, from Republic to Empire. But I will stop, don't want to discuss "comfort women" or anything else controversial about past conflicts. Everybody's happy nowadays, right?

yes! very! =/

thats why i'm gonna go over there to see her ^^v

maybe even have a nice conversation

that would be so awesome ^^v

Well, she herself admited she didn't like the stardom that much. She just want to be a regular person. I think she rather not to be famous in America. It's a dirty society nowadays.
