Ayumi Hamasaki New Hand-Bra Shot
Ayumi Hamasaki has been photographed doing a hand-bra shot.
It is the jacket photo for her 10th Anniversary single, "Mirrorcle World" (to be released April 8th). This will be a turning-point year for Ayu, and this defines the start of it all. The photo was taken in February. It was shot during her trip to Paris to also film the promotional video, under strict rules that no boys were allowed.
In November, 1999, for the simultaneous release of the album "LOVEppears" and single "appears", Ayu's bustline was hidden with her hair, and the photos received alot of attention. Although it has been announced that the CD booklet will contain swimsuit photos and the like, this is the first time Ayu has done a hand-bra photo.
The promotional video includes 5 costume changes, including a daring corset. Also included, a dress weighing 20 kilograms - that's half ayu's total body weight. Running around in the dress was apparently "taxing on the body", but the work was finished.
Also, as an additional track on the single, two songs from ayu's debut year, "YOU" (June 1998) and "Depend on you" (December of that year), have been re-recorded. The CD will be released in two separate versions.
