Born in Fukuoka City, Fukuoka Prefecture, Japan, she attended Horikoshi High School in Tokyo during her middle school years (dropping out halfway through). She is recognized as one of the "Heisei's Three Hottest Hotties" and is one of the most popular Japanese pop divas of recent years. (Her influence is felt throughout Asia, especially in East Asia, and in other parts of the world. Ayumi Hamasaki has a pivotal position in the Japanese music industry, not only as a singer, but also as a fashion representative of the young generation in Japan, leading the fashion trends in Japan and even in Asia, and playing the role of a mainstay of the ever-changing fashion trends in Japan.

Since her debut single "poker face" on April 8, 1998, Ayumi Hamasaki has written all of her own lyrics. Her lyrics are like a mirror, clearly presenting her thoughts and contradictions about life, work, and self without reservation. As one of the most famous Japanese singers in recent years, she has released 43 singles, 9 albums, 1 mini-album, 19 remixes and 4 anthologies in her native Japan*** to date. The total number of copies sold exceeded 50 million. She became the fourth highest-selling artist in Japanese music history. She has set new sales records in her native Japan, and in 2006, with the release of her 40th single "Blue Bird", she became the highest-selling female artist in Japanese music history, with a total of more than 20 million copies sold. Her album sales have been even more impressive, with most of her nine albums released to date topping the annual album sales charts (the Japanese oricon charts).

Ayumi Hamasaki grew up in Fukuoka Prefecture, a beautiful part of Japan, and looked out of the window of her home at a vast green field, but Ayu grew up in a home that was not quite as breathtaking as the natural scenery. Her parents divorced when Ayu was very young, and because of this, she was left alone at a young age with unimaginable loneliness and isolation, often feeling helpless!

Ayu was destined to be naughty and mischievous from the day she was born, with her chubby little arms and legs constantly moving around. The conservative father did not like girls very much, Ayu's croaking, his heart's expectations were shattered, swaddling Ayu seems to be able to read his father's mind, every time he saw his father will bloom a big smile, and hands dance. Seeing such an adorable little baby, his father couldn't help but relax his tightly-knit brow and smile, and gave Ayu all of his love and care. But the happiness and joy was short-lived, and by the time Ayu was three or four years old, her father was seldom concerned about her, and focused more on arguing with her mother, and his father began to hate the idea of having Ayu around, so he insisted on taking her away despite the objections of her grandmother and mother. His father also began to hate the idea of Ayu hanging around him, so he insisted on sending her to kindergarten despite the objections of Ayu's grandmothers and mother. One day when Ayu returned home from kindergarten, she saw her parents busily packing and carrying their luggage to the car. She watched them with wide eyes as they moved around in front of her, but in her heart she wondered what they were doing. Finally Ayu couldn't resist the temptation of curiosity and asked out loud, "Where are you going?" "Dad is going on a business trip." Father said lightly. The well-behaved Ayu told her father to be careful like a little adult. Although her father heard Ayu's response, he didn't turn around to look at her again, but just silently continued to move his luggage, and then drove his car and disappeared from Ayu's life.

After her father left, Ayu was left with her mother and grandmother. The mother took on the role of head of the family and worked as a saleswoman for an insurance company, while the grandmother took over the housework from the working mother and took care of Ayu, who had naturally become a pillar of support for the young man since then. Although both her mother and grandmother treated Ayu like a treasure in their hands, her father's heartfelt departure left a lonely hole in her heart and caused her to lose trust in everyone, and she seemed to have matured in an instant.Ayu's behavior in kindergarten showed that she was different from other children. While most ordinary children would shout and complain to their teachers, Ayu seldom cried or pouted, and did not play games with other children, sitting quietly and watching others laugh or cry. After learning of Ayu's isolation from her kindergarten teacher, her mother didn't worry about guiding her back to the world of her peers and took a laissez-faire attitude because she thought Ayu's independent, non-dependent personality was a good thing. Her mother even gave Ayu, who was only five or six years old, the keys to the house, so that she could go to school and come home by herself. One day when Ayu came home and tried to open the door, she realized that the key was missing. Since her mother came home late, her grandmother was out of town, and it was already getting dark, Ayu thought she couldn't wait any longer, so she looked around to see if there was a window that was left open that she could use to get in, but she couldn't find it. So you want to break the window, small Ayu in the yard to find a chair, stand up, swinging his fist, hard to the glass, the glass is broken, can of Ayu hand and wrist is also glass stabbed blood flow.

As a child, Ayu was very cute and pleasant to look at, which is what her mother recognized most and was most proud of. Her mother also believed that Ayu had the talent to be active in the acting world, so she began to cultivate Ayu's acting talent, and when she enrolled Ayu in a talent class, she told the teacher that Ayu would definitely be able to become a big star in the future. Although her mother forced her to take additional talent classes, Ayu, who had always been very assertive, did not show any impatience or resistance, because she was also very interested in the piano, which could produce tinkling sounds from a big box, and the ballet, which was a dance on the tips of her toes, and enjoyed it, often playing the piano as if she were in a trance, and she couldn't get Ayu to stop playing it for four or five hours. Four or five hours of non-stop playing could not make Ayu happy. Ayu also worked very hard at ballet, always dancing alone in front of the mirror at home after returning from the dance class, so she was one of the best dancers in the dance class, and even in elementary school, she wore her grandmother's hand-sewn costume and danced Swan Lake and The Nutcracker in a performance at the Fukuoka Civic Center...

The Nutcracker is the first dance in Fukuoka that Ayu has performed.... ...

When Ayumi Hamasaki arrived in Taiwan, some fans cried tears of joy for her, but in Shanghai, everyone was stunned by a tightly packed line of black bodyguards, looking on in silence. Half an hour later, a small girl less than 1.60 meters tall came out like a flower. Wearing a hat, her large eyes rolled around and her colorful fingernails were alarmingly long. It's hard to connect this tiny woman with the gorgeous talent in the photo, but someone told me: this is called "Hundred Changes", a moment can become a god, a moment can become a girl next door, when silent, call for love, when talking, call for intoxication, Hundred Changes is to let the two contradictory temperament coexist in the same body: sexy and refreshing.

Her positive and optimistic attitude toward life also permeates her works, teaching girls to be independent, strong, and courageous, and she is therefore considered to be the most effective lyricist among 21st century female singer-songwriters in persuading girls to go on the right path. In addition to singing and performing in concerts, Ayumi Hamasaki's advertisements have also dazzled many people, creating many of the industry's "most".

Japanese actresses usually go through a period of being a "swimsuit girl" before they become famous. Ayumi Hamasaki is no exception. In order to increase her exposure, she often had to take swimsuit photos for comic magazines and men's magazines, and although it did increase her popularity at the time, this kind of "cash cow" type of work was very offensive to her, and in September 1995, Hamasaki Ayumi changed her image, and released a hip hop style album under the name of AYUMI.
