While North America got home-grown popstar got Justin Bieber for Google Chrome commercials, Japan got a homegrown star of its own for Google Chrome ads. Make that, a virtual homegrown star.
Thatâs right, Hatsune Miku appears in a Google Chrome spot. Other Japanese Google Chrome spots do feature the likes of Lady Gaga, who is as close as the worldâs going to get to a living virtual idol

Oddly, Toyota once used a Westernized Hatsune Miku to shill cars in America. Considering how Hatsune Miku went virtual and then mainstream in Japan, Google Chrome ad makes perfect sense. That Toyota one was just wacko.
