I must agree with that. To think that Ayu was never popular here in the Philippines (you won't hear anyone talking about Ayumi here often, only about BoA, Utada Hikaru, Yui and some more j-pop artists but never her.), the only way for her few existing filipino fans to know about her is the internet.

Popularity is important for a celebrity. If Ayu is popular almost everywhere, many more people will buy her products and more will come to her concerts as well.
