Hamasaki Ayumi and Sawajiri Erika hang out together at Leslie Kee’s exhibition!

On the 27th, a photo exhibition was held for the Great Tohoku Earthquake charity photobook “LOVE&HOPE”, which will be released on June 1st. The event was held at Omotesando Hills’ “Space Oh”. Hamasaki Ayumi (32), who graces the front cover of the photobook, and Sawajiri Erika (25) were among many in attendance.

The exhibition featured photographs from Singaporean photographer Leslie Kee (40), who took the portraits of beautiful women from 32 countries around the world. Hamasaki walked the venue with Kee and listened attentively as he explained some 200 pictures which feature women such as Lady Gaga (25) and Beyonce (29). Hamasaki met with Sawajiri before leaving and the two smiled  and shook hands as Sawajiri nervously introduced herself with “I’m Erika”.

Later, Hamasaki posted a picture of herself, Lesie and Sawajiri on Twitter. She wrote, “Alright! It’s raining in Osaka! This is my real ability (as a rain girl). Going to the 1st day at Jo-hall!!! But before that, please let this cute picture of Erika-chan make you feel better ☆”. (TL Note: Hamasaki is known as a “rain girl”, which is someone whose presence seems to bring rain)

    I’ve seen a couple of pics where she looked older…well rather her age ^^;; (I’ve seen plenty of GACKT pictures like that… yeah he looks young but he certainly doesn’t look 30 ^^;; which I know he’s not)

    I wonder what the wannabe movie queen has done in the relief effort. I mean, she’s the one parading everything she does around as if it was a gift from god, yet… she was quite quiet during this whole thing. Too busy getting divorced eh.

    Nervous when encountering a real entertainment queen? I find that very amusing. Go! Go! Ayumi!

    Hamasaki can justify being a bitch easily with her success and skills (not that she is one). Wannabe movie queen however… she doesn’t have a lot to show off. Wouldn’t call her a bitch either, but rather just a stuck up, stupid girl who needs a good chew-out. Works wonders on those, if done properly.

    Wannabe movie queen ain’t a HBIC though. Not that HBIC sounds even remotely positive (nor do the male counterparts.) And such people are usually laughable anyway, at least I find them laughable and unimpressive. Real leaders, real alpha males/females don’t need to be bitches, and usually they aren’t.
