I ain't not even heard of her. Still, sad for her. But hey, at least Beethoven managed to carry on right?

I've never heard of her but if her music suffers and she's a looker, she could always become a pin up for all the guys.

I admire her perseverance ... but really, I've always preferred Utada.

That really wasn't funny at all, Raebus. I'm really sad for Ayu. I couldn't imagine singing without hearing one of my ears. Singing is hard enough with two ears, so I think she's being strong, and not something to mock.

I prefer Utada's recent music to Ayumi's, but I prefer Ayumi's older music to Utada's.

Still, I'm glad that Ayu will keep singing. <img src="http://www.JEREMYTIME/mondatime/rydia2.gif" title="Ganbatte, Ayu!">

I enjoy pretty much all of Utada's more than Hamasaki's. Although, I'm the opposite, I like Utada's older stuff a lot more.

Does anyone know what happened to her?
Or was she always like that?

i think its a birth defect but i havent read about her since advent children came out.

Foxy Brown went deaf in both ears. She had to have some crazy surgery to get partial hearing back. it was some crazyness.
