Nah, she is one of the top artists in Asia, yet she can't compare to the wealth of Western top artists. For one thing, they have a bigger market, since they're popular all over the world, not just Asia.

If you compare, ayu made roughly 9 million dollars in one of her top years, 2002, while Madonna made 50 million in 2004. And ayu does a lot more commercial endorsement stuff.
