THE INTERNATIONAL POLLS: Previously, WACJ (World Art Celebrities Journal http://www.worldartcelebritiesjournal.com) conducted two international polls in 65 countries and in the United States and targeted audiences which constituted the majority of its readers in the eastern and western hemispheres. Over 200.000 questionnaires were completed and sent back to the magazine. No importance was given to the age, profession and political views of those persons who received and answered the questionnaires. The results received from those previous polls are diametrically different from the results of this current poll which was conducted between May and September of 2003. The results were different and perhaps contradictory for obvious reasons. We have published the results of the two previous international polls in other sections of this edition. Please refer to.  In 2003, between May 2^nd and September 7^th,  and April  16th  and May 14th  WACJ circulated approximately 600.000 questionnaire/lists among its readers and music lovers in 125 countries members of the United Nations. The questionnaires were sent to people between the age of 80 and 25. Out of 600.000 sent questionnaires, WACJ received 525.654 replies. The questionnaire contained the following questions and requested the following information, something we have not done in the past.

 A-PERSONAL INFORMATION/DATA REQUESTED: Age, nationality, profession, preferred type of music, spoken languages, countries visited, education (certificates, licenses, degrees), how many records, albums and CDs purchased the last 5 years, how many live concerts attended for the past 5 years, personal notes and remarks (if any).

  B-THE QUESTIONS:  Question # 1: If possible, please list your 100 favorite American female singers or any female singer who sings in English. If you are not able to come up with 100 names, please list as many names as possible.  Question # 2: If possible, please list your 50 favorite international female singers from any country, not only those who sing in English but in any language.
