I really doubt that it's embarrasing to like J-Pop in Japan. Though, I do think that pop was more popular around 2000. Now, you can see some hip-hop and more rock in Japan. But, J-Pop is still the most loved in my opinion. Seeing all those boybands still dominating the charts, I guess they still like pop very much.
And I wouldn't consider Britney Spears a joke. People loved "Toxic" and they would play it everywhere and people that don't even liked Britney liked that song and they would sing it anyway. But yeah, I guess some people might not want to admit they like her.
