When I said an eccentric image, I was only referring to Lady Gaga and how she got popular. I did not say everyone needs an eccentric image to succeed. Please read carefully what I'm saying. What i'm saying is that any Asian artist who wants to break into the American market needs something distinct about him / her and the right promotion to get far. Who knows? Maybe the Wonder Girls will break out. But what I'm saying is that unless they produce actual hits, they won't break through. Exposure is not enough. And they need to make music that Americans would actually take seriously. And I apologize for my diction. I didn't mean to say "representative". But that they have not acted as doors yet for Asian artists to break through.
