I dont really see what shes doing aside that. Singing a little playback? I could record a song, let somebody make my voice better and than jump around singing it playback as well, does it make me an amazing artist? NO

Please My point is not sales, it's longevity, overall popularity and staying power. If she was totally without merit or ability, she would've fallen off the radar years ago. The fact is, no matter how many people dislike her, Britney has star power that 99% of singers in the world would kill to have, Ayumi included. She's the world's biggest singer, and for good reason.
