UPDATE: The performance/interview will be airing on a different day. No confirmed date yet.
Utada has uploaded a new video to her Kyte TV account, showing footage of the rehearsal for her upcoming appearance on the Ryan Seacrest Show. She is expected to be On Air with Ryan Seacrest this morning in Los Angeles on KIIS 102.7FM, so all you LA fans be on the lookout. The show airs between 5-10AM.
on Taku Hirano’s (her percussionist) myspace it says tomorrow he’s doing a bette midler show so Hikki should be today?
^Well that is comforting. I would really like her to be on the show today as well.
ahhh I’m listening to the show right now but it’s boring….All I need is Utada!!
DSL5, more like all year round
yeah
what she needs is an Utada radio station
I think they just said she’d be on around 9:30 PST
well its the last 49 minutes, so hopefully she gets on within that time period…
yap. tt’s wat i heard too.
the girl closing shop comment? that was about her?
Yeah I heard that too!! Probably that’s Utada!!!!!!!
9:30!!!!
I really hope it’s her
this is so frustrating…..too many commercials
I know…. but I hope she’ll be there right after this!!
It wasn’t, it was just that 60 seconds of Sleaze or whatever it was about some girl from Laguna Beach.
I seriously don’t think she will be on today. And if she is on tomorrow, it will probably be a pre-recorded interview and performance.
this is so disappointing
the commercials never end!
now Beyonce…
GAH!!! I WANT TO HEAR UTADA!!!
what? they cant even spare a few minutes?! this is indeed frustrating…
They should have played Come Back To Me and then do her interview. I guess that’s wishing for too much though.
UGH! Interview Utada already!!!!
Ne-yo…and then Utada!?
Now I sound stupid…
It’s probably tomorrow guys. No stress.
WE are “Mad” at you, Ne-Yo.lol
Did everyone get a copy of the video from iTunes while we wait? It’s coming up as free when you search for Utada even if it’s not on the front page.
It’s ok guys. It’s prolly tomorrow. It makes more sense with the album release and everything. Besides, Ryan Seacrest usually does his interviews early bec its when most ppl are tuning in (rush hour etc). If it’s right now then not a lot of ppl who dnt know her will get to hear. It’s better for Utada when she does it another time instead of right now, don’t you think? More exposure.
Also, RJ, great blog. been following utada-online.net then ublog for years but this is the first time i’ve posted. This is the only utada site i follow. Best one in my opinion. Keep it up!
i guess it’s tomorrow….
UGH!!! I WON’T BE ABLE TO LISTEN TOMORROW!!!!
He did mention Sisanie? Who is doing the event tomorrow. So maybe it is today? (Wishful thinking:P)
Well we know Emily Blunt will be on tomorrow. They mention everyone else except Utada XD
I just wasted my morning listening to commercials
Sasanie is doing the event tomorrow. I actually heard one time she said Utada was gonna be performing at the Sephora event. But i dunno if that’s true. I did hear her say it during one of the sephora promo’s she did on her show.
ditto
^that was to paganini’s comment
…they didn’t even mention Utada on tmr’s show
Alright if it’s tomorrow, I hope they won’t play it during Utada’s appearance at KTLA morning news.lol
Well, it would cover a lot of bases at once if they did a radio AND Tv Appearance tommorow. Though I’m sure due to bad communication there are NUMEROUS Utada fans who had to endure Ryan Seacrest for a whole morning.
And yes it would have to be pre-recorded. Unless…some kind of new cloning technology is involved
Do I get one!?!?
Ryan did not mention that Utada will be a guest tomorrow, which means she may be a part of the Wednesday broadcast. They don’t do the shows live actually, it’s all pre-recorded and broadcasted at different days of the week.
She loves those earrings.
idk about today’s being pre-recorded, they did have break news about Matt Lauer and the deer.
breaking*
thought i’d finally hear hikki LIVE for the very first time. looks like it’s gonna be a “live” recorded performance after all. but when???
There’s so much information coming in at one time. What’s the deal, when is the date?
And, wow, Utada still looks flawless without any make up on! I think this will be her first time performing ‘Come Back To Me’ live! This is incredible for Utada, the exact promotion that she needs. I don’t think BoA has ever been on, or will be on the Ryan Seacrest show? Hm. I’m so excited! Hopefully it is posted on the internet, because I live so far north I know for sure I won’t be able to get to watch it.
Does any Canadians know the radio station that Ryan Seacrest hosts? (Is it virgin radio? 99.9?)
In that video she reminds me of the cover to First Love
A bit of good news today amidst all of this disappointment. I got my Album!
God, how the heck can anyone expect us to watch a whole 5-hour program just to catch a snippet featuring Hikki when we all ahve school or work? Lol, its cool as long as someone somewhere uploads a podacast of it, or whatever!
