I have an opinion....

I think in Western countries like America or Europe.  Even a single doesn't look too good but as long as he/she has the good ability and skill(that includes singing well and writing songs).  He/she would still have a lot of fans and the music company would still spend money to advertise them.  

However, in Hong Kong, the music company would only spend money for the singers who look good.  I think the reason for that is because the singers who look good can also help the music company to earn more money by shooting films and commercials.

Therefore, the singers who can sing well and write good songs but do not have a good looking face won't obtain enough help by their music company.
