After today's discussion I was thinking about how I have seen Japan in American media. I remembered a music video by Selena Gomez which came out earlier this year. It starts in a karaoke bar in Japan and later on has some of the lyrics printed in Japanese. My friend showed it to me when it first came out and I just thought that it was weird how she was portraying Japan and Japanese things in that way. However, now I realize that it is not that abnormal.
