Interestingly, two of the biggest Malaysia names, Neelofa and Datuk Siti Nurhaliza, are listed along with other influential Asian stars. According to the website, the selection was evaluated based on the amount of followers, as well as their influence on social media, and the most actively interacting with their fans.

As everyone expected this list is filled with stars from South Korea like IU, BTS, and Blackpink. This is based on their undeniable popularity and influence across Asia and the world.
