Really? Cause last time I checked, a singer's job is to sing and sing well, not put on some drama show for the audience. That's what soap operas are for. Having a good stage presence is a plus plus plus....but it's not a necessity. Some singers like Koda Kumi can pull off a great vocal performance and a great show at the same time. Good for them and hence their high popularity. Mika Nakashima puts on an old lady, i'm-tired faced for every single live I've seen of her and her voice is just as great, her performance just as moving. Regardless, this discussion is kinda pointless. Hikki had great energy and was fun to see.
