English Interview with Ayu

Aired 2006-12-08 on CNN International - 22 mins long

Her English is pretty good, although a bit accented. I assumed she didn't speak English at all. (and that's what you get for assuming) You have to love the complex ways that celebrities dodge questions. I don't think the interviewer quite understood the implications of 'growing up' and no longer being child-like in Japan. As I understand it, dreams are for the young and when you grow up, you end up an office lady or some other equally dull and uninteresting career path.
