In this age of dubstep and auto tune it was only a matter of time before someone improved on the technology. So what does this mean for someone who’s singing is best heard only by the shower head? It means that you could still have a singing career yet. That is if you are an extremely skilled software engineer also skilled in graphic design and holograms but hey how hard can that be.

To Crypton Future Media this was not such an impossible feat. Through their technology and with the help of Yamaha Corp.’s Vocaloid software they created a 16-year-old pop star who is proudly fake. This pop star is named Hatsune Miku and she is a completely computerized pop star. She has been touring around the country for many years now and had been in thousands of songs.

Miku has sold out many shows around the world including the United States. But how does someone who is a computer program actually get people to come to a concert when they could listen to the exact same music at home? Crypton Future Media had the same question. Well their solution was simple, make Hatsune Miku a walking and talking person. They did so by making her an interactive hologram. From the videos I have seen Miku does in fact have all of the elements of any regular pop star. Well, other than the fact that you can’t actually touch her and that she never ages. But that’s not important in a pop star right?

But you do not have to take my word for it. Feel free to watch this clip from one of her live concerts:
