Your typical dumb American wouldn't be able to hear Namie's engrish and they will constantly butcher the pronouncation of her name as Nami Amuro.
Heeeeyyy, we've all done it! No need to be elitist

Saying that I'm not sure how bothered I am about a US debut. I was really excited about Hikaru's US release (loved Exodus whereas TITO is my least favourite album by her). As long as we get the same amount of music from her I'll be happy. My one negative/selfish thought about Asian artists trying to break the US (although I'm not sure if Namie IS trying to break the US) is that they would have to spend more time promoting than they would in Japan = music releases less often.
