FullyDattAndDatt3full Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 legit questions are some of you Africans? Link to comment
Blackout2006 Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 I am also very curious of this question. Any Africans here whom can answer? I might not be African but during Britney’s peak, Oprah had visited an African country and all the young children came running to her asking whether she knew whom Britney Spears is or not. That’s one piece of the puzzle I have besides her having pretty good sales in the African continent for a Western artist. Link to comment

1inamillion Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 Depends on the country's development and how keen they are in American pop culture i guess. It would be interesting to know though. Link to comment

popprison Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 Not sure about Africa but I grew up in the Middle East and she was very popular even on the Arabic music channels. Particularly in the early 2000s. And, I did have 2 friends from Uganda who were fans of Brit. They had the Oops album. Link to comment

My grandma was born in Africa and I believe she lived in Tanzania for most of her life, anyways she loves Britney as much as Elvis & Whitney and she is 74 so I hope that answers your question.

The Asian tour she had in 2017 tells you everything you need to know, and the fact that her Japanese tour rerelease of Glory sold more than Katy’s witness album in Japan on the week it came out Link to comment
PickleSpears Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 Very interesting. Good docs have the power to make an impact and make change. Look at Blackfish - it disrupted a whole industry. I'll be on vacation when this comes out but I'll be watching when I get home for sure. Link to comment

Katy there BTW Hudson is so beautiful name,..,.,..,,, Link to comment
Blackout2006 Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 9 hours ago, BabkaAutorka said: Does anyone know how popular she is in Asia and Australia? VERY Huge. Especially in her peak! She has two albums in Asia with over 2 million copies and 4 with over 1.5 million copies. Not only that, but her best market is Philippines, and she has managed to break into smaller markets like Venezuela and India. And her song "Criminal" is HUGE in India, its like one of her biggest hits in that region. She had a Asian + European tour and it grossed like $55 million dollars, with most of the money coming from Asia. I think after Mariah Carey and Celine Dion, Britney is the 3rd best performing female star. Whereas for Australia, I can't say much since I am not Australian but I think she is well-known there but not to an extent where they like her. Her peak in Australia was the Circus era.
