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

Isn't BoA a predominantly an artist in Japan now? She has more albums there than Korea

The threshold for Gold in Japan is 100,000, but the population in Japan is 127.6 million while the US is 313.9 million

The UK has half the population of Japan, yet a gold album there is the same amount of copies
It's not exactly a hard certificate to attain in Japan given the relatively low sales required

Where was she born? What's her nationality? She's not from Japan, therefore, she's an international artist in Japan.

[Beautiful Liar]

Because she has the body of a Japanese woman

Japan likes cuteness. Cuteness sells.

And she's not that successful yet..


but anyways, it's not really an accomplishment to be the most pre-ordered album in Japan. iTunes has expanded so much since 2011 (Gagas peak in Japan). Gaga went platinum first-week with Born This Way. What Ariana is doing is nothing compared to that.

[Misanthrope]

Something about the way she looks and sounds makes sense to me as to why she'd be so popular there.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe that they're insinuating to something Paedofile related

The whole "cute innocent girl" image helps a lot.
