Her parents were strict, frequently setting early curfews and limiting her cell phone access. Her mother was very critical of her fashion sense, to the point where Takemura would have to leave the house dressed normally, and change into Harajuku-style clothing inside a public location. She would often return home to find that her mother had disposed of her fashion accessories, which led to further quarrels. She writes in her autobiography, ''Oh! My God!! Harajuku Girl'' that her father was more supportive of her, although they had their fair share of quarrels as well.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kyary Pamyu Pamyu」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
