Until she breaks the Hot 100, I'm pretty sure she's like, a D grade celeb.

Yeah, C List is a little too generous for BoA Kwon, although I don't get the point of anything that was said about Ben Lyons or BoA Kwon. Maybe it has something to due with Ben having Epert's job now.

I was interested in what ravex is exactly so for those that don't know some info. ravex is a group that Avex put together for the 20th anniversary. It consists of Shinichi Osawa (MONDO GROSSO), Tomoyuki Tanaka (Fantastic Plastic Machine), and Taku Takahashi (m-flo). This single with BoA is their second single. ravex first single is called I RAVE U feat. DJ OZMA. Here's the music video for that.

Her english is getting pretty good I think ._.

It's too bad that so many of her interviews in the US are with Korean/Asian-focused websites, magazines and tv-shows, where probably 90% of the viewers already like BoA...
It's as if I was going to break the American market, and when I got there, I only do interviews and performances in Norwegian tv-shows and clubs...
That doesn't really get her alot of new fans or promote her music alot, since most of those people are already familiar with BoA.

njanjayrp · #**291** 10th January 2009, 12:22 PM

On a positive side her english is slowly getting better and even tough these interviews might not be effective she is getting a chance to become more comfortable with having the english interviews

How many interviews has she had? Well let's see.

Kiwibox-not asian focused
Seventeen Magazine-not asian focused
Nylon Magazine-not asian focused
Soompi-asian focused
The KBS, SBS, and Newsen-korea focused
KIIS FM - not asian focused
Sidewalks TV-not asian focused
MTV IGGY- international music scene focused

Any other interviews to add in? So far it's more non asian focused. I wasn't sure if I should add the KBS, SBS and Newsen interviews since she did those specifically for her Korean audience, but it's an interview as promotion so I put it in.

She had a interview with Seventeen Magizine?! Ooo.

Also the video interview with BoA was nice. Her english is getting better.

Seventeen Magazine

Korean pop sensation BoA is currently recording her first English-language album (check out her first single, "Eat You Up" — it's an infectious R&B/pop tune that you won't be able to get out of your head!), and she stopped by the Seventeen offices to chat about fashion, beauty, and — of course — the new album.

BoA definitely has a Rihanna-like look going on (she describes her style as "tomboy," and she likes hoodies and urban gear). But what really sets her apart are her funky nails. On most of her fingers, she has a simple clear tip, so that it appears that you can see right through the nail. Then, on a couple of select fingers, BoA's had them black-tipped and crystallized. It's a bling look without being too much.

Make sure you're on the lookout for BoA's album, coming in 2009, and if you've heard "Eat You Up" or any of her other music, let us know what you think below!

I love how she said she sees herself performing all over the US in 5 years still. I'm glad to see she's determined to make it here and hopefully her record company will keep pushing her out there in the future.

I STILL LOVE EAT YOU UP!
