Have you ever wondered why Disney Hotshots like Miley Cyrus, Demi Lovato and the Jonas Brothers only tour in the Americas and Europe, but never ever set foot upon the Asian region?I have no idea why, but only a few managed to set foot on Asia, mostly Japan. the only ones that got in that region were Hilary Duff, Raviv "Ricky" Ullman, 78Violet, Selena Gomez, Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens. All 5 of them (excluding Raviv, who went to Singapore for a press appearance for Phil of the Future) went to Japan to promote their works. Hilary and 78 Violet promoted their albums. Zac and Vanessa promoted HSM 3 (as HSM The Movie in Japan). Zac and Vanessa, also went to Hong Kong for a promo there. Vanessa even had plans to go to the Philippines with her mom to explore her mom's homeland, yet is not yet done as of now. Selena also went to Japan to promote her albums and the Japanese dub of Wizards of Waverly Place.
Miley, Demi, and the JoBros have fanbases in the Asian region yet they are snobbed. why? could it be that these have little to no experience in their languages? (The Philippines, Malaysia, Singapore and Hong Kong people there speak English so it's no problem there.) Is it because of culture shock? Is it because of time constraints? is it because the Region is far away from the US?
Whatever the reasons are, these factors I said are NOT AN EXCUSE for these stars not to tour in Asia. This post I written is not just an opinion, but also a open letter and a challenge to Disney Stars to go see what they're missing- the great continent called Asia.
If any Disney star or at least their management is reading this right now, I dare you to go visit Asia. If you do that, not only your fans will be happy, so will you. you won't regret it.
Update: as of June 15 2011, Miley Cyrus is on her way to the Philippines. Let's hope Demi and others follow soon.
