Bite Daily!

Bite of the Day: Wassup, Tokyo Pop?

Today, something interesting happened. Globalization got us again.A website quoted us. Besides the initial question of, what does that mean, we checked out their site and found something cool in return. Aww, we shared. We came across a video of Tokyo entertainers, a Come to Tokyo tourist advertisement for teenage and mid to late 20’s-ish girls. Backstreet Boys? N’Sync? American Idol? Other countries are assimilating a lot of American culture, American media marketing, iconographing and branding. They’re taking their own cultures, blending it with the world wide frenzy to share everything with each other, yesterday, and creating their own celebrities. Paris is cool over there, but the thing that makes American celebrities popular is manufacturing foreign celebrities and bringing it back like sexy, in an already worn out colloquialism (try it out).
Looks like the foreigners got their own Big Bang theory.
