In a recent poll, Japan's virtual idol currently has the crown with thousands of votes for the 2012 London Olympics.
You may or may not be aware of Hatsune Miku, Japan's foremost digital idol, but she is one of the things most likely to top 'Japan's weirdest exports' lists year round.
She's been around since 2007, and the chances are that you've already heard of her.
What you might not know is just how popular the vocaloid actually is internationally.
Hatsune Miku currently tops an online poll of, "Singers you'd like to perform at the London 2012 Olympics", over other such superstars as Justin Bieber, Lady Gaga, or even Japan's own megagroup AKB48. (ZDNet)
