And yeah, Namie is a big part of Okinawa's fame but she's not the only famous Okinawan. That said, they're literally building a statue of her there so they're upping the tribute factor for sure, plus all the Okinawa travel commercials featuring Namie in the last few years. Whether they're going overboard is a matter of personal taste and perspective.
