Yours Truly went Gold in Japan b4 the US

It's kinda rare for US artists to smash in Japan, the 2nd largest music market in the world. we only know Mariah, Avril, and Gaga (am i missing any) that are popular there

Why is Ari slaying?

[collin]

This thread doesn't look like it'll end well.

[ItsJustMe.]

they like the cute girl-image, probably why Britney did so well there too in the past.

[MINKI]

Because she looks 12.

[Bey_Rihstan]

Don't get ha dragged.

[Guernica]

well they love Mariah so of course they'd love her successor



but seriously Japan likes young looking females which also explains Carly Rae, Avril, and Taylor's slayage over there

All the losers quoting that unfunny post, how about you stay on topic?

She's slaying because Japan loves her music and recognize a true talent.

[Miss Korea]

The last tweet isn't actually correct because a little Korean girl by the name of BoA has six consecutive number one albums there.


And the threshold for Gold in Japan is different from the US

[IVY]

She reminds them of Queen Mariah, the same reason why Taylor's we are never going back together smashed there, Avril's kind of song.

[QueenBeé]

She has the typical Japanese look except the eyes.

[Popboi.]

She reminds them of the best selling international artist in Japan

[Marq]

Her image perfectly appeals to certain demographics in Japan.

[JClarkSTAN]

They like the sexualized cute girly image that she has.
Japan also loves vocalists. They love artists who can really sing. Ariana has that. Those two combined are probably what makes her huge over there.
