* An in-universe example in WebOriginal/ZhirinovskysRussianEmpire: US President Bob Kerrey has mixed reputation in America. [[spoiler:Risking nuclear war with the UIS to prevent them from occupying Kosovo and possibly massacring ethnic Albanians]] makes him popular in America when the UIS withdraws, but makes him an idol to the Albanians. Hundreds of Albanian children are named after him, one of whom becomes a teen pop sensation for sharing Bob Kerrey's name, and for his [[SoBadItsGood hilariously bad music]].

Rated M For Manly is about works, not characters


* An odd form of this comes with the audience ''gender'' for the internet niche fandom of Music/{{Vocaloid}}. While in Japan, the voices of the predominantly-young-female character vocal series are often fawned over by boys and men ([[DirtyOldMan some of them in their thirties]]), Vocaloid in general is far more popular with girls and women in America. Alternatively, while the Japanese Vocaloids usually get most of the spotlight with the English Vocaloids used as emergency backup, Big Al, [[RatedMForManly by far the most manly-sounding vocaloid thus far]], has gained quite a bit more popularity than you would expect. Another English Vocaloid, Oliver, also has a very large following in Japan compared to most English Vocaloids, and his popularity might even surpass Big-Al.

* [[Wiki/TVTropes This Very Wiki]] is ''huge'' among Brits, to the point where several tropes were named for British pop culture references, to the point where the region's newspapers [[UsefulNotes/BritishNewspapers have their own page]], and to the point where ''Literature/{{Discworld}}'' (a novel series, describable as [[ThisIsYourPremiseOnDrugs literature on drugs]], that is a classic in Europe but only known amongst a small amount of geeks in the rest of the world) has a huge presence around here and its pages dwarf those of other British media such as ''Literature/{{Redwall}}''! It's also to the point where, on quite a few pages, you'll expect to find British/Commonwealth slang and pop culture references at every turn. American Tropers are often [[SeparatedByACommonLanguage endlessly frustrated]] by the abundance of British slang, terminology and pop culture references used on pages, even going as far as to start edit wars to change them (and vice-versa). There was also an argument over the "Neasden" bus used for the page image of PutOnABusToHell. There have been attempts at [[Administrivia/AmericanAndCommonwealthSpellings policies quelling this issue]].

* Filipino internet comedy duo, Moymoy Palaboy, who are known for their videos of lip-synching songs had a huge fanbase in Latin America. They even become more famous when their lip-synch video of "Everybody" by the Music/BackstreetBoys with Filipino actor Mark Herras became a subject of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eOv4HHOtn1E a certain Japanese MMD video]] with VideoGame/{{Touhou}} characters imitating their moves. Apparently, Ryan Seacrest erroneously reported the other way around. Oh, and this is before Dub Smash became a hit in the Philippines.
