Her early album sales prove it.
It's definitely not an ayu thing, but that's what I got out of reading one of your posts
I didn't say she got big because she reminded people of singers from the past, I said it played a role on her voice becoming iconic. But this is very, very natural... People tend to like what they already know and recognize, and popstars are always build having past popstars as a base.

There's this very interesting Beyoncé video, I believe she was introducing Tina during the Grammy's, where she cites her biggest influences as a performer and singer, and once you think about it, you can really see she took a lot from those people.
