BoA signs on with CAA

[-ochre.livejournal.com]

BoA who is currently working on her debut in America has signed with ‘CAA’ (Creative Artists Agency).

‘CAA’ is the home to may top celebrities like: Brad Pitt, Will Smith, George Clooney, Oprah Winfrey, David Beckham, Steven Spielberg, etc. Now that she’s gotten into a big agency like ‘CAA’, they will probably be more than likely to hook up the pop star with bigger gigs. ‘CAA’ plans to handle practically EVERYTHING related to promotions- that includes albums, concerts, movies, endorsements and merchandising (character products).

Looks like ‘CAA’ will be investing a lot into the petite pop star in order to make her the next Asian ‘Hannah Montana’ or something. Well goodluck BoA!

Hopefully she will be able to accomplish more than eternal ESL student, Rain or debut preparer, Se7en was able to in the States. That way she can open the door for future Korean artists that want to break into the U.S.

i was like, "she's in Canada?" ha ha ha. CAA is like an association for Canadian drivers. *shrugs* i'm not her biggest fan but I wish all the best for her.

[shonen-key.livejournal.com]

Ugh Popseoul

[onlyformusic.livejournal.com]

uhh who was the first asian hannah montana?

[onlyformusic.livejournal.com]

oh really... is that what people actually name her as?

[dreamerbri.livejournal.com]

hopefully they'll promote her as much as the other people signed on caa.

[chrismakkuh.livejournal.com]

caa is a big name group. If she can't make wit hthem backing, it's over.q

se7en's still doing his thing in America. They both released digital singles but the fact that Se7en's "Girls" did better than BoA's "Eat You Up" says to me that his debut album might also do better.

But BoA signing up with a top talent agency will DEFINITELY put her in the spotlight more, especially if they're handingly all the promotion.

Ugh, please no. No matter how well BoA does in America - even if she doesn't do well at all - she'll always beat out, a million times over, stupid-annoying-a;lskdj;lfkjk Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus. No comparison whatsoever.

No offense to people who like Miley Cyrus, of course.

Stupid popseoul, arghhh... xDD;;

[ashiva.livejournal.com]

Well, under CAA she might actually make it in States.

ETA: LOL where on earth Popseoul came up with that Hannah Montana idea?

[callherblondie.livejournal.com]

CAA is weak in their music department. They can probably get her some small bit roles in movies or a two second appearance on a tv show, but their strength does not lie in advancing musicians' actual music careers.
