Japanese men are not interested in sexed up powerful women, that's why most of Koda followers in Japan are girls, while men are more interested in Ai Otsuka 
If japanese men are sexual interested in kawaii girls, when a female jpop singer act like that, she is being sexual.... So, considering most of japanese female popstars, Japan's pop market is as sexed up as western.
And I'm considering that you are so concerned about those singer looks that you are comparing them to pornstars without really knowing how they works really are... And sorry, but I think it's stupid to judge an entire side of the world ('cuz when u say that western pop music is all about sex, you are taling about North American music, Latin American music, Europe music and African music) as sex oriented if you obviously don't really know anything about it....
That's why I'm aways saying: Those damn otakus! |
Sure, I am aware of the things you said ^^ But how come Otsuka and all those girl projects aren't selling now? I watch Japanese porn, just that the ones I watch do not involve girls and I know how perverted they can be. If you count the number of female artists that are actually successful nowdays in Japan you'll that in fact it's not as sexed up as the other one, just look at the top 10 yearly for now
GReeeeN is ruling the charts and they don't even know how they look
I already said before that we shouldn't generalize as it all depends from an artist to the other one, but people simply continued and continued. I have previously said that I do not know a lot about the American music market but simply what I saw/heard on TV. I really didn't want to argue..
