Japan's Queen of Pop, Ayumi Hamasaki, is still reigning supreme! Even after 27 years in the game, her star power is undeniable. This August, she's finally hitting Taiwan for a concert after a 17-year hiatus, and naturally, tickets sold out instantly, prompting an immediate additional show.
But yesterday (July 8), she dropped a bombshell on her Instagram Story: her 5-year-old son suddenly declared, "I'm drunk!" This sent the superstar into a spiral of shock and worry, leading her to cancel all her plans and rush him to the hospital for a check-up.
Ayumi was completely baffled when her son first uttered "I'm drunk!" After some careful questioning, she realized he was actually trying to say he was "feeling unwell." Still, off to the hospital they went!
"Turns out, he told everyone we met on the way, 'I'm drunk!' Everyone was super surprised, and honestly, I'm still scratching my head wondering when he picked that phrase up..." She then apologized to her staff and fans, "I've had to make last-minute adjustments to all my plans today, I'm truly sorry."
This hilarious (and slightly alarming) anecdote quickly made waves after being reported by Japanese media like Livedoor News, sparking a flood of heartwarming comments. Fans were touched and impressed: "Ayumi Hamasaki is truly acting like a mom now!" "No matter how famous she was, prioritizing her child now is truly respectable." "Seeing this, you just know she's a great mom."
Some netizens even joked, "Maybe Mom says 'I'm drunk' a lot, and the kid just picked it up!" "He probably saw adults on TV saying 'drunk' and wanted to imitate it." "Kids sometimes just randomly use new words they learn, haha." Still, everyone hoped the little one was okay and would recover quickly.
This whole incident really highlighted Ayumi's maturity and tenderness as a mother. While every mom can get flustered by unexpected kid emergencies, it gave fans a sweet glimpse of the superstar's off-stage life as a devoted parent.
