Why isn’t Bella Poarch part of the Asian representation narrative?

Representation in terms of what?
Social Media? She is. A lot of the filipino community loves her, especially Filipino-American.
Music? Well though Build a Bitch is a bop, truth of the matter is, people see her as an Influencer. They don't see her as a musical artist the way Oliva or BTS are.
She'll need to really break through over to a radio billboard hit and make music her main focus, and tiktok second if she really wants to be seen as a musician.

In the music industry she has a lot of potential. She'll have to try hard to get out of the "tiktok girl" image though.

Funnily enough BTS exposure in the West started as a social media phenomenon, "any A.R.M.Ys here?"
So the social media aspect shouldn't be downplayed when it kickstarted what BTS become what it is today globally

She's not nearly as popular as the other two, at least musically. She has alot of potential but she'll have to break out of that 'TikTok girl' image. They aren't really taken seriously as celebrities compared actresses and singers.
Though I've seen many Filipinos praise her so there's that.
