Literally just an excuse for Hikki to get headlined

When Utada Hikaru tweeted about a yawn that caused her a muscle cramp, Yahoo Japan made a headlining story out of it. The site talked about Utada's inactivity, particularly how she hasn't tweeted in 4 months.

When Utada saw the report, the singer laughed at their attempt to create a story out of a mundane detail about her life. "I tweeted about an epic yawn which resulted in a muscle cramp under my chin, and it made headlines in yahoo japan LOL," she tweeted.

"I can't decide whether the press has an AMAZING sense of humor or no sense of humor at all," she later added.

Utada Hikaru has been on hiatus since the beginning of 2011. With the singer focusing on living and experiencing life, updates about her life have become rare.

jpopasia, Hikki's twitter

Sorry mods, can't find the Yahoo Japan article, am not that good in searching where it is. If you have the links, please do share it. thank you! My goodness, Hikki really needs a break.

Relatable lyrics, usually with an interesting POV included, backed up by a catchy melody.

squallina 17th-Jun-2012 04:25 am (UTC)

It is most definitely an awesome song!

mjaytona 13th-Jun-2012 09:27 am (UTC)

squallina 13th-Jun-2012 09:59 am (UTC)

So true! Simple and Clean and Colors are what got me into Hikki! I've loved her gentle sounds ever since!

atelierlune 13th-Jun-2012 11:34 am (UTC)

Don't forget Sanctuary.

squallina 13th-Jun-2012 12:52 pm (UTC)

I try very hard to forget about Sanctuary. Passion is by far a better song. :(

It's because we're all so desperate for you to brighten up the scene is all, Hikki.

glider 13th-Jun-2012 01:25 pm (UTC)

lmao "Hikki was pissed" she seems more bemused than anything

zoemi 13th-Jun-2012 02:18 pm (UTC)

LOL is pissed?

yume_no_yousei 13th-Jun-2012 02:25 pm (UTC)

Reading that made me yawn. xD;
And omg Hikki, I never knew it was possible to get a cramp on your nose!

bleed_peroxide 13th-Jun-2012 02:36 pm (UTC)

That's because Hikki is the queen after all. Clearly. ♥

I miss her so much and can't wait for her to start making music again, but I definitely understand and respect that she needs to take a much-needed break. She worked her ass off for years and she needs to be able to enjoy living life without constantly having the public eye watching her.

dreameth4 13th-Jun-2012 02:37 pm (UTC)

ahahaha but hikki, we meeeeeeees you.

bear100 13th-Jun-2012 03:09 pm (UTC)

lol, Yahoo JP

Miss you Hikki. Keep enjoying your hiatus.

haruno21 13th-Jun-2012 03:26 pm (UTC)

mmm some artists get even worse stories out of a mundane details about their lives...

yasmine2009 13th-Jun-2012 03:45 pm (UTC)

This post just made me notice how much I've been missing her! ;-; I gonna go cry in the corner while blasting all her music.

captxfizz 13th-Jun-2012 04:13 pm (UTC)

Omg I miss her music so much...been on a massive Hikki album rotation this past week!

zoemi 13th-Jun-2012 05:45 pm (UTC)

Yahoo Japan's headlines are just an aggregate. Here's the original article:
http://www.cinematoday.jp/page/N0042962

It's more about the fact that she's returned to Twitter for the first time in 4 months and interacting with fans rather than the fact that she yawned.
