In February, Nikkei Entertainment conducted a survey among 3300 people to find out who in Japan's wide pool of talent is on . A pool of 1019 of actors/actresses, singers/musicians, idols, comedians, sports figures, etc. to be exact. Below are the results the from the women - teenager.

It wasn't just a matter of whom the women liked or disliked. The survey checked a celeb's level of recognition -- how well known is the talent's name/face? -- as well as how much interest people have in them -- do people want to watch them/listen to them/know more about them.

Yay! YUI is #15! Hmm.. not really that high...
But I'm proud to say that she's the highest female singer (I want to consider Aragaki Yui as a Singer-Model-Actress,and YUI is a singer. XD) in the charts. XD

Way to go~

WOW

she is above NEWS!

thats pretty amazing stuff...

oh..well 15 is a good number..im turning 15..haha..

yay..go YUI..congratulations..

yey! she's number ONE for me though... :cool

Survey Rankings are always reigned by JE Artist.. damn those guys..
Well I used to listen to Arashi... but now I find V6,the most decent JE group ~ I fan them too ne? XD

gee, only at 15 eh? ah well, those are girl teenagers. and of course logically speaking, it will be more of men domination. so I think YUI-san is fortunate to be in number 15. but still

OMEDETTO YUI-SAN!

darn those JE cuties. some of them doesn't even have the talent. only the looks. taku ne :YUIFace

waaaaaaaaah OH YEAH YUI grazt! XDDD :clap :good :suki

she might be 15 on the chart but in our hearts she will always be no.1
gambatte YUI-san!!!!!!!

YEAH! YUI RULES! :) I'm glad she has so much fame in Japan!

15 is actually very good...considering who's up there. >_>

There are only a few females on the charts...

highest female eh? tha'ts awesome...way to go YUI!

there are many JE boys on the chart.. @@
#15 is pretty good.. but for us you're the greatest teenager YUI (does YUI still considered as a teenager? she's already 21 right? but whatever.. she stlll looks young and cute..) :gboy
