Rihanna has sold 1M albums in japan almost and she's big in some countries there. Also Asia contains a large part of the Middle East where Rih is the biggest pop girl. I'm kinda not seeing your point here.

There are plenty of idols more talented than IT, but the Navy knows little about Asia (the self drag ).
It took most Kpop stars only 1-2 years of training to become great performers. Rihanna has been tryin to give one great performance in 8 years and still yet to happen.
The breakdown has more full body choreo than the Britney gifs you keep posting, not to mention she actually outdoes her dancers compared to Britney struggling to keep up. The Army stays losing.
